In this episode of the Didache podcast, Justin Peters critically examines the commonly cited advice of Gamaliel from Acts chapter 5 regarding how to discern true from false teachings. Peters challenges the notion that time alone will reveal a teacher's divine backing, using the advice as a cautionary tale against passivity in the face of questionable teachings. He points out that Gamaliel, a Pharisee and not a believer at the time, advised against opposing new movements outright, suggesting they would fail on their own if they were not from God. Peters argues this approach is flawed, citing the longevity of many false religions as evidence that time does not necessarily weed out untruths. He emphasizes the biblical mandate to discern and actively oppose false teachings, marking Gamaliel's advice as unwise and contrary to scripture. ➡️ Find all of Justin's essential links here: https://linktr.ee/justinpetersmin

Bethel Church, led by Bill Johnson and Kris Vallotton, is known for an emphasis on signs and wonders, including angel feathers appearing out of thin air in their services. They made this claim just recently, in February of 2024. Kris Vallotton has said he has seen angel feathers appear “on at least a couple hundred occasions.” If that is true, then I have an open challenge to Bill Johnson and Kris Vallotton and Bethel Church in general. If they can meet this challenge, I will immediately and permanently shut down my ministry. ✅🎥➡️ Subscribe to the Justin Peters Ministries Odysee Channel ✅🎥➡️ Subscribe to the Justin Peters Ministries YouTube Channel ✅🎧➡️ Subscribe to the Didaché Podcast ✅👍🏻➡️ Like Justin Peters Ministries on Facebook ✅🐦➡️ Follow Justin Peters Ministries on Twitter ✅📷➡️ Follow Justin Peters Ministries on Instagram ✅👨🏻‍💻➡️ Visit Justin Peters Ministries Website ✅📚➡️ Buy Justin’s books on Amazon ✅💸➡️ Donate to Justin Peters Ministries

In 2021, Steven Furtick raised a lot of eyebrows when he, in a hyper-emotive rant, said, "I am God Almighty." People excused that as him getting tongue-tied. Fair enough. But then I found a clip from two years earlier in which he said basically the same thing. Now, in 2024, he may have said the most blatantly heretical statement he has ever uttered. There is no excusing this one. ✅🎥➡️ Subscribe to the Justin Peters Ministries Odysee Channel ✅🎥➡️ Subscribe to the Justin Peters Ministries YouTube Channel ✅🎧➡️ Subscribe to the Didaché Podcast ✅👍🏻➡️ Like Justin Peters Ministries on Facebook ✅🐦➡️ Follow Justin Peters Ministries on Twitter ✅📷➡️ Follow Justin Peters Ministries on Instagram ✅👨🏻‍💻➡️ Visit Justin Peters Ministries Website ✅📚➡️ Buy Justin’s books on Amazon ✅💸➡️ Donate to Justin Peters Ministries
