Facebook and I have a strange love/hate relationship. I love the ability that it gives me to stay in contact with the people that I care about and, hey let’s face it, the viral videos and funny pictures can provide us with hours of meaningless entertainment. But there’s one thing about Facebook that I just can’t stand, and that is Facebook’s ability to entice me into long, drawn-out theological discussions with a person who really doesn’t want to hear what I have to say …. or what the bible has to say, for that matter.
Because of my past involvements and because of the controversial nature of my posts, I frequently “engage” individuals who are deceived by the mantras and the false teachings of our day. Christians are quick to pull little pieces of scripture out of their pockets, take them out of context and use them as a “bone of contention” without fully understanding the substance and history behind what is being said.
Due to the nature of Facebook, it makes it really difficult to teach. Usually, people would rather rant and argue their point rather than discuss an issue civilly. I’ve been guilty of this myself! Maybe it’s just me, but there is a real “pressure” to answer quickly, and as a result, people only get a partial answer …. usually with a heavy dose of “attitude”.
The same can be said for face-to-face discussions and confrontations. We live in a fast-paced society where we have very little time, or desire, to put forth the effort to evaluate, understand and digest the “framework” of scripture. We would rather stand on what we think we know and continue on in our confused, defeated and lawless lifestyle.
This will destroy us.
I’m going to put together a web resource, tentatively titled “Scriptural Answers for Prophetic (and Emergent Church) Propaganda”. It will be a web page (or pages?) that will address the most popular heresies, excuses and misinterpretations of scripture taught by the present day church. This resource will also give a scriptural rebuttal so that seekers of Truth can have an answer for those who are currently deceived.
But here’s where I need your help.
I need YOU to email me the arguments, heresies and mantras that you hear the most frequently. After I read your responses, I’ll be able to get an idea of the topics that need addressed, and the urgency in which they need addressed. As God gives me the revelation, I promise that I’ll get it to you!
Email me your input here: kevin@honorofkings.org
This should be fun!
For the Love of the Search,

Hello Kevin, lately, we are hearing a lot about taking dominion or territory, reclaiming the 7 mountains of our countries, strategic prayers, fighting against principalities that rule those mountains ( main sectors of economy basically).
Why is this “revelation” only surfacing now? Why so much emphasis on it? On the surface it seems harmless especially for folks who love their country and want to stand in the gap for their land…but the issue is that it comes with “prophetic steps” and “actions” and “recitations” which are impressive and “spiritual” similar to builing alters like in the old testament. Are these kind of intercessory steps normal? Should we be spending so much time and resources fighting territorial spirits? Is there a reason to be cautious?
Hi Ariane, I may get invoke the “ire” of many intercessors with this reply but, so be it I guess.
Do you see these types of “prophetic” steps being taken in the Word? Did the saints battle over territorial spirits? Some may refer to Daniel and the “war” between Gabriel and a territorial spirit, but was Daniel warring? Wasn’t it Gabriel? Daniel was seeking God, Gabriel did the warring. Daniel wasn’t binding, loosing, reciting, etc …. he was seeking God for answers, as should we.
The simple Truth is, we should be walking as Jesus walked (1 John 2:6). Jesus cast the devil out when he was confronted by demons (as should we), but I don’t see where He went seeking out territorial spirits (and I’m open to correction on that). Of course, He totally defeated satan by His death/resurrection. Is binding/loosing/fighting against territorial spirits part of the Great Commission? … Nope.
You see, people get wrapped up in this stuff when they listen to false teachers/prophets/apostles/etc who add to, or take away from God’s Word. Let’s examine the Fruit of their actions … has sin decreased in our land? … Nope …. has a great multitude come to Jesus? …. Nope.
I think the fruit can speak for itself.
Many blessings,
Kevin
Great idea, Kevin. I’m already thinking….
