We live in a time when social media and digital technology is a prominent tool to disseminate messages as well as doctrinal beliefs at the touch of a button. There are drawbacks to such availability and power. There is reputable content, and there is questionable content flying under the radar of aesthetics with passable or recognizable terminology. There is now a rise in people wanting to build their own brands and digital kingdoms on these platforms. Clickbait material and sensational subjects are being used in order to funnel people to channels and followings. One of the things being used to validate this practice is the gospel. But is the gospel being proclaimed according to Scripture?Join Dawn on this Contending for the Word episode as she discusses this practice with an insider from a program designed to build social media platforms in a way akin to multi-level marketing.Subscribing, sharing, and your feedbackYou can subscribe to Contending for the Word via iTunes, Spotify, or your favorite podcast catcher.

Within areas of the Charismatic movement, there is a reluctance to call an individual a false prophet, even when evidence is provided to confirm this very thing. There are additional categories for prophets created within the prophetic movement, arguably convoluting the ability to call one a false prophet. What does Scripture tell us in identifying false prophets and false teachers? Is it loving to call someone a false prophet or a false teacher?

Deliverance ministries have made a roaring comeback. Self-described “demon slayers” maintain that born-again Christians need to regularly have demons cast out of them. Deliverance ministries, led by figures such as Greg Locke, Alexander Pagani, Isaiah Saldivar, Kathryn Krick, Vlad Savchuck, etc., are entirely predicated on the premise that Christians can be inhabited by demons. On this Contending for the Word show, Jim Osman, Chris Rosebrough, and Justin Peters examine their claims and theology.Link to Jim Osman's books and teaching: Jim OsmanLink to Chris Rosebrough's channel Fighting For The Faith: Chris Rosebrough's YouTubeSubscribing, sharing, and your feedbackYou can subscribe to Contending for the Word via iTunes, Spotify, or your favorite podcast catcher.
