Have you ever been led by a false teacher?

[judylearnsmorewithtime]

I really needed this confirmation. ❤. I left my church after calling out doctrine and behavior that was leading people astray. I was called a Pharisee so I parted ways with the church. I have been fighting myself with my decision and have wanted to go back to the church and apologize, but I don’t want to be a hypocrite. So I’m on my own now. I recently found a new church that is Bible based and I am realizing this video confirms that I’m in the right place.

The father son dynamic with John and Arden is unbelievably inspiring !! You can feel the love and respect they share for each other. I am in awe ❤ I also think it’s the sweetest thing in the world how excited and on fire they are for Jesus. I can’t help but smile and giggle every time they veer “off track” bc we all know there is SO much to talk about in such little time!! This new podcast is amazing and wonderful and filled with the Holy Spirit. Thank you for your hard work and dedication. All glory, honor, and praise be unto Jesus Christ!! Amen.

I was starting to drift! I was given the council but fought the correction. Praise God for my Pastors and Minister who stayed the course with me until I was able to see it. This pod cast was confirmation, and the additional teachings was very informative. Thank you Bevere family!

[jyotipriya]

Your description of Biblical prosperity is so insightful and helpful.

[aaronhurd]

This was absolutely INCREDIBLE! I have literally been trying to figure this out for decades now! Really really REALLY Thank you guys!

“True prosperity gospel is when I am seeking to impact more people’s lives & believing God will give me the resources to in order to be able to do that. So it all comes down to motivation.” 20:21

[cherylbond]

This is one of the most important topics for Christians today! Thank you for allowing Holy Spirit to present His Word through you! 🕊️

[elained]

I like that this podcast asks questions and is balanced. Thank you

[slirpyslirp]

Thank you for this video! I’ve recently read about Balaam and Balek but I didn’t understand why God told him to go and the was angered against him but your all’s explanation from the spirit has made me understand and it is very relatable so it makes sense.

[tuckersellers]

So needed for today, I see false teachings everywhere. God Bless!

[TimaGstyle]

This is so on time. Thank You Jesus! 🙌🙏

[savemyplace]

Excited for this! It's important to know who is a False Teacher and not just someone you disagree with based on parts of their denominational doctrine. I'm excited to learn.

[dianabrown]

How timely and helpful was this podcast! Thank you..

[davidmedere]

Thank you for sharing not only the what but the how. As a believer I am sad that other believers see the need to attack and label ministers and ministries. Information is not always redemptive. But prayer from a humble place is always redemptive. There is no such gifting as a self appointed church critic.

[Karolina-ib]

Sound teaching. Finally some truth around this topic. Thank you. I love the honesty and the fear of God in you. Families ate blessed to have you.

[sophiebrazzell]

I appreciate the wisdom and legacy of wisdom from this family! Praying blessing and safety for you all.

[genesissings]

I always learn so much from you, seriously. You are led by the spirit John. I appreciate you.

[aavery]

This podcast is powerful. Reminds me of your book, Thus Saith the Lord. Both your book above and this podcast are needed words for us today. Thank you.

[lycanmaximus]

I couldn't wait to listen. Grew up in a holiness church. There are still some of us around. Loved your first book way back 30 years ago. Glad I found your channel.
