Күн бұрын

Michael Moore, aka “The Honest Youth Pastor” spends a good bit of time creating sermon reviews of popular pastors and teachers. In his studies, he has identified 5 vulnerabilities in the Christian church that we should all be aware of. We discuss progressive Christianity, Christian Nationalism, Motivational Christianity, a lack of biblical literacy and church history awareness, and the role/legitimacy of deliverance ministry in the church.

I too was a little put off with "January 6th type people" yeah really what type is that. I don't believe you would ever hear him say " George Floyd protester type people". There were many people in Washington that day hust to pray for the country, and he just kind of insulted them all.

Great episode Alisa. I learned so much from this episode. I’m actually seeing this from a lot of the western Christian’s here in Thailand who love the Steven Furtick type of preaching. I try to get them to ground themselves more in the word (bible) and quit following personalities and to always follow the money regarding the net worth of these mega church personalities. Your program is so well balanced….I love it.

Lord Jesus, you know that of myself I can do nothing without you. Father please give me strength. These past three years have been difficult on me I am weak. Please give me strength. At times I feel so alone especially as a single mom. Since suffering a heart attack two years ago and my on going battle with lupus I’m overwhelmed and discouraged. I’m still struggling to support my children and myself. Being a single mom is challenging. Especially because both of my sons are autistic and now that I’m homeschooling them my hours to work are limited. But even as I struggle to pay rent and I struggle to buy groceries. I KEEP FAITH! Lord please protect me and my sons from homelessness. Amen.

Awesome conversation. There are many "New Agers" who have a conservative values. Also many libertarians are in the group, who don't believe in Biblical morality. You are right, it is a good idea to have discernment and the pastors have not taught their congregations very well, in fact they tend to ignore the culture. I have found, however, many are open to the gospel. Lastly, Rush actually became a Christian later in his life.

Haven't seen the video yet but you men Rush Limbaugh? I used to listen to him once in awhile when he talked about stuff other than politics. He found his spot and that was demeaning people. When Obama got elected I found out the rightwing including Rush were not to listened to for they were really evil. The rightwing has pushed so many people away from Christianity. They have to look at themselves in the mirror.

This was really good. In Australia in my area we dont have nationalism or so much progressive churches. But we are injected with motivational and topical that takes the bible out of context. And it is like church for addicts. Ive been to two churches that would make me cry and not a good cry. Mourning crying. Condemnation crying. Like somthing was wrong with me and i was a goat in a room of spirit filled sheep. Im so glad i got away from that but my friends still go to those churches. Its really sad, because they are lovely people but i cant have a theological discussion with out seeing those teachings seep out of them that are not biblical. Esp around the self, healing, experience motivated, church being free therapy ect.

Regarding deliverance ministry, there's a KZbin channel called Remnant Radio that talks about the problems that deliverance ministry cab deal with. They are charismatic so they do advocate for deliverance ministry, but they also value church history and look to the Bible as the primary source on how to look at things and how to tackle the promblems that are arising in yhe charismatic community.

My son deconstructed over it. I became attracted to Progressive Christianity for a while. I now see what is wrong with it, but I'm nervous about finding a Bible based church because I worry that politics will get in the way of my relationships with other congregants.

When Iceland converted officially to Christianity in 1000AD as the main religion the Nordic pagans negotiated for three easements one of which was to get to continue evicting infants, i.e. leaving then to die out in nature or drowning in the ocean, lake or a river. Which indicates quite clearly the default position of the church in those days.

Maybe a little bit off of the topic being discussed but, I've recently come out of the NAR, word of faith, prosperity etc movement. I've got my own story to tell. A question that I would like to be answered is; What is the role of the elder in these movements? What is the true role of an elder? For me the Bible is very clear about this. The question was asjed in my former church abd tge answer was;"We have moved on, we are not in that dispensation anymore. We refer to it as 'the leadership'".

1 pastor who preaches and shepherds the flock and has the responsibility of keeping the flock biblically sound Elders are spiritual leaders and guides within the church. May lead prayers and help pass out communion, will keep the pastor in line. May fill in for the pastor if there is not a back up pastor, there should only be one back up pastor, these churches with several "pastors" often have poor leadership and weak teaching theologically. Deacons are the young men who care for the church grounds and do the many tasks of the church on sundays.

I have to comment on Christians and conservatism. The assertion that many Christians believe conservatism and Christianity are one and the same, almost interchangeable, is a straw man. I’ve heard this assertion on Alissa’s program before. I don’t know anyone who believes that or teaches that. Of course you can always find an obscure group of people who believe crazy things. But it’s not common. As a Christian who is also conservative my political beliefs come out of my biblical beliefs. And yes, I find myself disagreeing with secular conservatives. At times they are too liberal when it comes to social values.

@glennshrom5801 8 ай бұрын

Very good video. Something about church history though: Our general church history curriculum is completely western-centric. It does not cover Orthodox or Coptic church history - churches still in existence - nor does it cover church history east of the Euphrates, of which very little of the story still exists due to those churches phasing out between ancient Gospel preaching and modern religion takeovers. This gives us an inflated view of the Reformation, and the importance of the Reformation, and hurts us when we think about so many modern conversions to Christ that are completely removed from the context of the Catholic and Protestant churches. For instance, there are Muslim background believers and Hindu background believers and folks from animistic tribes who are today coming to Christ through means that are unrelated to the Reformation and Catholic church traditions and lines of Gospel transmission. It makes people hard to figure out what God is doing among them when our only framework is what has happened in Europe. There is a lot of value for westerners in seeing how church history and Christian history shaped our culture, but Christianity is much bigger than just western culture and what God is doing in cultures similar to ours. I think a more valuable history to look at as modern globally minded Christians is the history of Israel and what we read about in the Scriptures. We need to make better sense of the history and historical context that the Bible is telling us about, and not so much of western culture history since the book of Acts story left off. Also, looking at western Christianity, we get a lot of ideas from Christians around the Mediterranean who were from Gentile backgrounds and who grew up with pagan worldviews prior to their conversions, and this leads to a lot of deviations and distractions from the biblical story. In some ways, it is not much more helpful to listen to Augustine, for instance, than it would be to listen to a modern convert from Papua New Guinea who tried to make sense of the Bible without the Jewish background and without biblical studies about the ancient contexts of the Scriptures. People like Augustine did the best they could given their background knowledge and lens of interpretation, but they can't hold a candle to someone like the Apostle Paul or James who knew the Old Testament and lived in a Jewish mindset prior to conversion.

These times cry out to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ in America! "IN GOD WE TRUST" is falling away! Keep ready! JESUS CHRIST IS COMING! HE PROMISED. HE KEEPS HIS WORD. Maranatha! 1 Cor.16:22; John 14:1-3, 6; Titus 2:11-15. Wonderful praise here for God the Son. John 1:1, 3-4; 14,18*; Mt.16:13-20. THE ANGELS GIVE GLORY TO GOD IN HEAVEN! HERE WE HEAR AND SEE EARTH "ANGELS" DOING IT TOO! RIGHT HERE! JUST LIKE YOU! Subscribed. WE LOVE YOU, LORD! YOU GAVE ALL FOR US. YOUR SUFFERING WAS IMMENSE! WE GIVE YOU ALL THE GLORY! YOU ARE OUR LIFE SAVIOR. YOU KEEP YOUR WORD IN THE BIBLE. THE GOOD NEWS "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father, but by me.."John 14.6 . Blood coming from his body, NAKED, hanging on that cross like Roman torture weapon! What a Lord God and Savior! He had to. HE is God the Son. Only His sinless blood could pay our sins price.The Savior was born to die for our sins so we could live through Him. 1 John 1:8-10; 2:1-2 JESUS LIVES ! HE IS OUR HIGH PRIEST IN HEAVEN AT THE FATHER'S THRONE ABOVE AND KEEPS US IN THE FAITH BY PLEADING HIS SINLESS SHED BLOOD FOR OUR SINS 24/7 UNTIL WE ARE GLORIFIED AND SINLESS FOREVER! 1 John 1:5-10; 2:1-2; Hebrews 4:9-16; 5:1-10; 9:22 . THE PAYMENT BY HIS BLOOD FOR ALL SINS EVER! "And according to the Law, one may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness." Hebrews 9:22 Romans 5:8 " But God demonstrates his love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, now justified by his blood, we will be saved from wrath through him." “For he (God) hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” 2 Corinthians 5:21. Matthew 26: 28 "For this is my blood of the New Testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins." ( life is in the blood. He had to pay with His life) * * * God knew you before the world was made! Ephesians 1:1-14. Prayer goes out for you and those here. A Crown in Heaven awaits all who share the Gospel of Jesus Christ that saves a soul. ( see"JESUS SAVES") 1 Thessalonians 2:19-20; Philippians 4:1. The Apostle Paul said in Romans 1:16 "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believes; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek". This praise resounds throughout the earth: "Jesus Christ is Lord and God. Only He saves". He testified: ''I and my Father are One" John 10:30 (*see also 31-42). 2 Samuel chapter 22:verse 50 "Therefore I will praise you, O Lord, out of the countries, and I will praise your name." JESUS SAVES God the Son (Jesus Christ) has given us the gospel to share with the world. Mark 16:15: "And He said unto them, Go into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature." How can we hear it? Scripture tells us. Romans 10:17 "Then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." (We receive the "word" in many ways. The "Word" is Jesus Christ!); John 1:1-5. God the Holy Spirit teaches through the Word of God in the Bible. John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." Romans 3: 23 " For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23 "1 Corinthians 15: 3 "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:" BY GOD'S GRACE ALONE THROUGH FAITH ALONE IN JESUS CHRIST ARE WE SAVED Ephesians 2:8 "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 not of works, lest any man should boast." Jesus died and paid the penalty for our sins to rescue us from eternal death. He died on our behalf. We believe in Him, trusting His death and shedding of His blood as payment for ALL our sins and His burial and resurrection from the dead the third day! John 20:24-31; 1 Corinthians 15: 3-4 above. WHOSOEVER BELIEVES SHALL TESTIFY TO THE TRUTH Romans 10: 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” TO DIE IS TO REJECT SALVATION IN JESUS CHRIST AND BE SEPARATE FROM GOD FOREVERMORE Salvation and forgiveness of sins is the blessing of anyone who believes in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. We receive the baptism of God the Holy Spirit immediately which seals us in Christ and that is permanent! Ephesians 1:13-14. Those who reject the free gift of salvation, see John 3:16 above, "perish", which means their sins are judged by God the Son and they suffer eternal separation from God and the family of God forever called the "second death". Revelation 21:8.

I am a conservative. Have always been... even as a child, even surrounded by social democrats or center right family. But I am first and foremost a Christian. I grew up in a Catholic family and country, and early on I learned the pitfalls of calvinism and Lutheranism. Slowly I started moving away from the Catholic Church. I deeply abhor Wokeness. I deepky abhor "progressive Christians" (ie, false Christians). I understand thev rise of nationalistic Christians as a reaction to the violence and persecution by Wokeness and progressive Christians, but I don't recognise anything other than Jesus, the Bible as the true authority for following the Word of Jesus. No pastor, priest, "apostle" is more valuable, truthful than the the Bible and what Jesus taught us. Period.

My values are conservative but I feel uncomfortable in Conservative political spaces (I'm a black female btw). I too watch the Daily Wire but would often feel guilt that I didn't really agree with quite a lot of their stances. Though there are people there like Amala Ekpunobi, Candace Owens they frankly came across as mild white nationalists especially Owens who purports to be a Christian. But what really opened my eyes to the Conservative & 'true' Christian divide was the said Candace Owens interviewing the self confessed fornicator Andrew Tate & lauding him & finding nothing wrong with his lifestyle, instead praising him. But at the same time she has platformed women on Only Fans & criticised them for their way of making a living when they are in the same industry as Tate. We need to beware of a moralistic Christless Conservative line that lures us into a false sense of security. It's Jesus we must look to for our values as Christians not Conservatives.

As far as deliverance, my feeling is that Jesus said 'these signs will follow those that believe', and that included casting out demons. Theoretically any believer can call on the name of Jesus to cast out a demon, so there shouldn't be any precedent for deliverance ministry. If Christians are faithful, God will equip them to deal with these things when they need to.

A demon manifested in a lady at our church and because nobody knew what to do (or even that it was a demon), nobody did anything. So I don’t believe it’s as simple as you stated. Many people don’t believe we have those problems in churches and they are n denial and have no idea what to do. Training/teaching is needed (at least the very basics.)

I DO want to make a “personal” point….the Gospel, presented accurately, and simply, is just to be BELIEVED. The Creeds are, in my view, indicative of a more committed, knowledgeable, every-day, “walk with Jesus Christ” that we are GROWING in, day by day, into continuing ETERNITY. My 2 cents.

You said Alisa “God is not male or female “. I was shocked to hear you say this casually. I’ve always said the first and last fundamental flaw in either doctrine (orthodoxy) or practice (orthopraxy) is this: “If you reason from man to God you always come up with a man made God. But if you reason from God as he is revealed in the scriptures you have truth. So ask yourself how did Jesus teach us to pray the Lord’s Prayer but Our Father. How did God reveal to us what He looked like but in His Son Jesus…fully God and fully man. There are so many more implications about the doctrine of God this implies but please don’t buy into the culture of confusion about who God is.

Perhaps Michael moore could edify the church instead of labeling people as “bad” pastors or “unbiblical” - a lot of his reviews come from a place of church hurt and preferences (that are not biblical).

Regarding Christian Nationalism: I'd like to hear Michael explain a little more about the idea of bottom up vs top down Christianity in a nation or society. The idea that top down is just obviously not Biblical seems a little problematic to me; there's a lot to be said about top down Christianity in a society. The whole Biblical concept of Israel reflects a very top down society. The laws in every nation are rooted in a morality that is not based on democratic agreement, and largely rooted in Biblical morality. I don't think the millennial reign of Christ will be developed through a bottom up grass roots marketing campaign.

@debrahoffman2128 10 ай бұрын

Israel actually rejected that God-ordained model in favor of a secular king, "that we also may be like all the nations." I Samuel 8:4-18. Ironic, isn't it? No, it wasn't God's plan, yet God permitted it - classic "be careful what you wish for". There has always existed a tension between moral authority and civil authority, and trying to conflate them will always be problematic. It is problematic because a willful, sin-sick society is incapable of recognizing the ultimate sovereignty of God, and ultimately that sort of insight must come from a knowledge of God - not from government, and certainly not from coercive government. John 18:36. The millennial reign of Christ is the ONE exception, because it's, well... Christ.

@@russmaples5351 But by the time of Christ, the more politically powerful Roman authority superceded both the Jewish civil and religious authority. Yet it was that very Jewish authority that betrayed Christ. As travel and communication expands and modern societies develop, don't they inevitably become more culturally diverse? Even the modern state of Israel. In my opinion, until Jesus returns, the best we can hope for is not so much a national, monolithic religious affiliation, but simply a just government that does not harass or unduly interfere with the faith community.
