What if the Church has been quietly erasing one of its most powerful practices for centuries, and we're paying for it right now? The Remnant Radio welcomes Reverend David Miller, pastor of Church Tsidkenu, to unpack the hidden, and often deliberately suppressed, history of exorcism and deliverance ministry throughout church history. David is the author of Redacted, a three-year research project that traces deliverance from the early church fathers all the way to the 20th century. What he found is striking: deliverance and revival move together. And when one is removed, the other tends to collapse shortly after. We walk through how the early church treated demonization as an assumed reality, how the medieval period saw a near-total collapse of effective exorcism, and how the Reformation ironically helped birth the modern assumption that Christians cannot have demons. David argues this isn't ancient orthodoxy. It's a pendulum swing traceable to John Calvin's polemical response to Catholic abuses, and it spread from there. We also dig into the Azusa Street controversy. David makes a compelling case that Charles Parham's now-maligned critique of the revival wasn't racial antagonism, but rather a legitimate spiritual diagnosis. Bizarre manifestations, moral fractures among leaders, and the systematic exclusion of deliverance from the revival's framework all point to something darker than the standard Pentecostal narrative admits. We close with the 20th-century resurgence of deliverance through figures like Derek Prince, Win Worley, Frank Hammond, and others. We discuss which schools of thought are most helpful for someone brand new to this ministry.  If you've been frustrated by a church culture that either dismisses deliverance ministry or refuses to confront the abuses of it, this episode is for you. 0:00 – Introduction 1:56 – David Miller Background 3:08 – Redacted Book Overview 7:07 – Revival & Deliverance Pattern 9:42 – Christians and Demonization 18:25 – Exorcism in the Middle Ages 34:00 – Luther-Calvin Baptismal Debate 38:50 – George Fox Redacted 41:29 – Azusa Street & Parham 50:16 – 20th Century Deliverance Figures 53:08 – Strategic Spiritual Warfare 1:00:52 – Closing Thoughts ABOUT THE GUEST: 📖BOOK: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/redacted-david-m-miller/1144098925 ⛪CHURCH: https://www.churchtknh.org/ INTRODUCTION TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY: https://ww ___________________________________________ INTRODUCTION TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY eCourse PRESALE: $100 OFF through May 1  LEARN MORE: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

Warning: Not everything that looks like the Holy Spirit is the Holy Spirit - and the Church needs to know the difference! Healings, prophecies, tongues, signs, and wonders are on the rise in the Church, but so is deception. We have to ask: Can the demonic actually counterfeit the gifts of the Holy Spirit? In this episode, we explore Scripture, church history, and theology to give you a serious, grounded answer. From the sorcerers of Pharaoh's court mimicking the miracles of Moses (Exodus 7:11–12), to the witch of Endor who brings up Samuel from the dead (1 Samuel 28), to the slave girl in Philippi whose spirit of divination produced accurate prophecy (Acts 16:16–18), the Bible is remarkably frank that the enemy is in the business of imitation. Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14), and his servants are no different. Working through passages like Deuteronomy 13, Acts 16:16-18, Matthew 7:21-23, 2 Thessalonians 2:9-11, and 1 John 4:1-3, the guys walk through a biblical framework for discernment. Doctrine matters. But so does character, track record, submission to a local body, and the spiritual gift of discernment of spirits.  They also wrestle with one of the strangest categories in Scripture: unbelievers who traffic in real spiritual power. Balaam. Caiaphas. The judges. The slave girl in Philippi who prophesied accurate things by a python spirit. What do we do with that? The answer isn't to run from the supernatural, but rather to pursue maturity so you can recognize the real thing. The goal isn't fear. It's discernment. Moses didn't stop demonstrating God's power just because Pharaoh's magicians could mimic a few signs. And the church today shouldn't either. We pursue the genuine. We hold it up against the false. And we trust that Yahweh is still greater than the gods of Egypt. 0:00 – Introduction 5:13 – Counterfeit Miracles Defined 7:45 – Pharaoh's Magicians Examined 13:08 – Discerning True vs. False 19:36 – Slave Girl, Deuteronomy 13 31:37 – Unbelievers Trafficking Holy Spirit 47:38 – Eschatological False Prophets 54:04 – Personal Experiences Shared 58:09 – Biblical Evidence Summary 1:00:54 – Closing: Christ-Centered Gifts INTRODUCTION TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry ___________________________________________ INTRODUCTION TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY eCourse PRESALE: $100 OFF through May 1  LEARN MORE: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

Did you know the Bible has thousands of hidden threads woven through it that most Christians have never been shown? There are approximately 350 direct Old Testament quotations in the New Testament, but over 3,000 allusions - indirect references scholars have documented that never made it into study Bibles. Dr. Benjamin Gladd, executive director of the Carson Center for Theological Renewal at The Gospel Coalition joins the show to talk about Connecting Scripture, a unique, first-of-its-kind study Bible he co-authored with G.K. Beale, that makes exploring these threads possible for the everyday Christian. This isn't just a study Bible upgrade. It's a whole new way of reading. Ben explains the difference between a direct quotation - those flashing red lights moments like "that it might be fulfilled" - and an allusion, which functions more like an Easter egg hidden in the text. Think of John 1:1 ("In the beginning was the Word") deliberately echoing Genesis 1:1. We also get into some of the harder questions. What do you do when the New Testament seems to use the Old Testament in ways that invert or even contradict the original meaning? And how did the Apostles read the Scriptures? Did the Old Testament authors actually know what they were writing? This episode is the kind of biblical theology content that feeds your soul and sharpens your mind.

Are most, if not all, unbelievers demonized? It sounds extreme. But Scripture might be less ambiguous about this than the modern church wants to admit. Most Christians default to one picture when they hear the word "demonized" - the Gadarene demoniac from Mark 5, a naked man in the tombs, chains broken, screaming at Jesus. That's a level 10. But the Bible describes demonic influence across a spectrum, and the passages we tend to skip suggest that every person outside of Christ is somewhere on it. Paul says the "god of this age" has blinded the minds of unbelievers (2 Corinthians 4:4). He describes Satan as the spirit actively at work in "the sons of disobedience" (Ephesians 2:2). John writes that "the whole world lies in the power of the evil one" (1 John 5:19). And in 1 Corinthians 10, Paul makes the explicit connection between idol worship and demon worship, which means that since everyone worships something before coming to Christ, no one gets a pass. This isn't a fringe charismatic idea. It's the Bible's own framework for understanding the spiritual condition of the lost. And if it's true, it changes everything: how we pray, how we evangelize, and what it means to walk someone out of darkness and into the kingdom. In this episode, we examine the biblical case and ask the most important follow-up question: what should believers actually be doing about it? 0:00 – Introduction 4:50 – Defining Demonization 8:46 – Possession vs. Oppression Spectrum 15:17 – Satan's Biblical Dominion 22:41 – Kingdom Transfer Scriptures 37:26 – Moral Responsibility Question 42:44 – Fear vs. Engagement 55:01 – Deliverance at Conversion?

What happens when a charismatic prophet's own documented words contradict each other repeatedly, across years, in print and on video? Joshua Lewis and Michael Rowntree bring independent researcher Joshua Harris onto Remnant Radio to walk through the cumulative case on Jeremiah Johnson: prophetic inconsistency, documented plagiarism, and a pattern that the body of Christ needs to weigh carefully. Joshua Harris has spent months building a documented, timestamped case across multiple categories, and what he found goes far deeper than one bad prophecy or one misremembered detail.  This is the one-stop episode on everything regarding the allegations against Jeremiah Johnson: false prophecy, plagiarism, fabricated testimony, and what a leaked leadership meeting reveals about how Jeremiah is spinning the narrative behind closed doors. 0:00 – Introduction 5:28 – Trump Trumpet Prophecy 16:20 – Jeremiah's Response 22:18 – Boom in the Upper Room 39:14 – Josiah Johnson Plagiarism 43:47 – Lauren Sanford Plagiarism 52:23 – JD Hall Plagiarism 56:14 – Gift of Manasseh 1:09:07 – Elder Board Confrontations 1:25:20 – Leaked Leadership Meeting 1:43:14 – Response and Appeal ___________________________________________ INTRODUCTION TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY eCourse PRESALE: $100 OFF through May 1  LEARN MORE: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

What if your theology of deliverance has blind spots you haven't considered yet? Joshua Lewis, Michael Rowntree, and Michael Miller consider some provocative ideas about how the demonic operates, and then push back on each other to find solid ground. This is theology done with friends around a table. Not from a pulpit. These are hot takes, not finished doctrines - and that's the point. If you've ever felt theologically homeless between 'demons don't exist' and unaccountable, hyper-charismatic excess, this episode was made for you.  INTRODUCTION TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry ABOUT THE REMNANT RADIO: 📧 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER https://www.theremnantradio.com 📚 COURSES & CONFERENCES https://www.theremnantradio.com 🛒 SHOP MERCH https://theremnantradio.myshopify.com/ 💝 SUPPORT OUR MINISTRY:  • Become a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/c/TheRemnantRadio • Make a Donation: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=GC2Z86XHHG4X6&ssrt=1686780016992 ___________________________________________ INTRODUCTION TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY eCourse PRESALE: $100 OFF through May 1  LEARN MORE: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

What if the altar call you attended wasn't from God at all? And what if the spirit being imparted had nothing to do with the Holy Spirit? These aren't hypothetical questions, they're the testimonies of real believers who've come to us with real experiences. Joshua Lewis has spent over five years wrestling with an uncomfortable question: can a Christian receive a demonic impartation from a false teacher? In this episode, he lays out the biblical case, engages the hard testimonies, and refuses to give an easy answer, because the scriptures don't offer one. The goal of this episode isn't to make you afraid of every altar call. It's to make you fluent enough in the true gospel that you can tell the real thing from a counterfeit. Because the shield isn't fear -- it's the gospel itself. Know it well enough to recognize when someone is preaching another Jesus, another spirit, another gospel (2 Corinthians 11:4). That discernment could be the thing that keeps you free. 0:00 – Introduction 0:43 – Demonic Impartation Defined 1:59 – Syncretism in Charismatic Movement 4:42 – Courts of Heaven Examined 7:14 – Gnosticism & Altered States 8:42 – False Apostles, False Spirits 11:41 – Paul Cain Case Study 15:27 – Kenneth Copeland Warning 16:23 – Fellowship with Demons 18:32 – Luke 11 Reconsidered 21:12 – Gospel as Discernment Shield INTRO TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry ___________________________________________ INTRODUCTION TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY eCourse PRESALE: $100 OFF through May 1  LEARN MORE: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

Millions of people just got a deep-dive on demonic oppression, generational curses, and exorcism from a Catholic exorcist on one of the biggest podcasts in America. We're taking a look at the conversation and seeing how these practices line-up with Scripture. Father Chad Ripperger is a Roman Catholic priest, theologian, philosopher, and exorcist serving in the Archdiocese of Denver, and founder of the Society of the Most Sorrowful Mother, a religious community dedicated to spiritual warfare, deliverance ministry, and traditional Catholic liturgy. His recent appearance on the Shawn Ryan Show wasn't a fringe internet moment, but drew millions of viewers.  The episode covered generational curses, ancestral spirits, and the structure of the demonic realm. Some of what Ripperger teaches resonates with Scripture, while some of it raises real questions worth reviewing.  We'll look at what the Bible actually says about this, where Catholic and Protestant deliverance ministries share common ground, and where they don't. 0:00 – Introduction 2:05 – Protestant vs. Catholic 4:17 – Curses and Oppression 9:27 – Cursed Media Debate 22:12 – Angelic Knowledge Claims 33:08 – Demon of Fear 45:03 – Occult Knowledge Downloads 56:15 – Delore: Demonic Pain 1:05:05 – Closing Thoughts ___________________________________________ INTRODUCTION TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY eCourse PRESALE: $100 OFF through May 1  LEARN MORE: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

COLLABORATION: This episode was produced and hosted by the Wake Up and Win Podcast in collaboration with Mike Winger, Stephen Powell, and Michael Miller with Remnant Radio. Pastor Jake Kail publicly acknowledged that the scandal surrounding Jeremiah Johnson's plagiarism and false prophecies had merit. In a leaked call, the pastors network out of the North Georgia Revival responded with cover-up culture, siding with Jeremiah Johnson and rebuking Jake. Mike Winger, Blaise Foret, Michael Miller and Stephen Powell review this call and respond to why Jake Kail's post was biblical, according to 1 Timothy 5:20. ___________________________________________ INTRODUCTION TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY eCourse PRESALE: $100 OFF through May 1  LEARN MORE: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

Are you raising your kids to survive the spiritual war or just survive Sunday school? Melissa Dougherty (apologist, author, and fellow YouTube creator) is back on Remnant Radio, and this time she's brought a children's gospel allegory and a straight-talking framework for raising kids who can actually defend their faith in the real world. Most Christian parents want to pass the faith to their kids, but somewhere between memorizing Psalm 23 and answering questions about dinosaurs and reincarnation, the strategy gets fuzzy. Melissa Dougherty, known for her work on new thought, new age, and Christian apologetics, brings her background in early childhood education to a conversation that every Christian parent needs to hear. We dig into the real challenge facing Christian parents today: how do you disciple kids in a world that is actively working to undo everything you teach them? Melissa offers practical wisdom for every parenting stage, from toddlers asking "Who made God?" to teenagers staring blankly through family devotion time.  Additionally, we discuss how to celebrate the resurrection with joy and intentionality, why Christians should be making a bigger deal of Easter than Christmas, and how to think through the Easter Bunny, Easter eggs, and commercial culture without either being legalistic or losing the point.  0:00 – Introduction 1:29 – Melissa Dougherty Background 2:32 – Brave Books Partnership 6:11 – Allegory & Gospel 13:06 – Human Sin Nature 19:44 – Teaching Kids Theology 27:44 – Family Devotions 39:14 – Easter & Resurrection 53:00 – Book & Closing ABOUT THE GUEST: 📖 BOOK https://bravebooks.us/products/the-day-that-made-the-way 📺 PREVIOUS EPISODE WITH MELISSA https://youtube.com/live/JQTWQ7j5SS0 ___________________________________________ INTRODUCTION TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY eCourse PRESALE: $100 OFF through May 1  LEARN MORE: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

What happens when secular clinicians start doing what Jesus commissioned His disciples to do? Licensed psychiatrists, psychologists and therapists are encountering something in their patients they can't fully explain: external entities that aren't part of the self, that want to destroy, torment, and deceive. What they're calling "unattached burdens," the body of Christ has been calling demons for two thousand years. Josh is joined by Michael Miller and guest David Fish to dig into Robert Falconer's book The Others Within Us. They discuss what happens when the clinical sciences start bumping into the supernatural. Robert Falconer is not a Christian and doesn't believe in demons - at least not officially. But in his book The Others Within Us, he documents something that every deliverance minister will recognize: external entities that enter traumatized people and set up shop. They come in through open wounds. They offer false comfort. They isolate. They destroy. And when you try to reason with them, they can't see anything true or good. He calls them Unattached Burdens. We call them demons. Same thing. We walk through Falconer's framework step by step, the Internal Family Systems model that underlies it, the diagnostic tests he uses to tell human "parts" from outside entities, and the clinical process he follows to try to remove them. It's genuinely impressive how much he gets right. And it's genuinely concerning because without the authority of Christ, without repentance, without the Holy Spirit, "secular exorcism" may be simply moving entities around more than casting them out. C.S. Lewis's "chronological snobbery" gets brought up for good reason: the ancient near east understood spiritual warfare better than the modern materialist west ever has. But the secular world is waking up. Insurance companies are covering Reiki. New Age and Wicca are exploding. The spiritual landscape is shifting fast, and the body of Christ needs to recover its authority in this space. 0:00 – Introduction 2:10 – Guest David Fish 9:44 – Robert Falconer's Framework 17:45 – Diagnosing UBs vs. Self 37:42 – How UBs Enter 41:31 – Secular Exorcism Methods 49:32 – Sending UBs Away 1:04:54 – Closing Thoughts INTRO TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry ___________________________________________ INTRODUCTION TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY eCourse PRESALE: $100 OFF through May 1  LEARN MORE: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

If you've been burned by the church, this episode is for you. Church hurt isn't rare, it isn't new, and it isn't evidence that something is uniquely broken in you. From prophetic words that never came to pass, to pastors who weaponized loyalty language, to leadership boards that protected predators instead of people, church hurt and spiritual abuse happen. Many believers are left sitting on the edges of the body of Christ, quietly debating whether walking back through those doors is even worth it. What makes this moment different is that people are no longer just recognizing these patterns at the national level. They're seeing them in their own local churches: the same cover-ups, the same gaslighting, the same spiritual abuse dressed up in theological language. And the question they're asking isn't just "what went wrong?" It's "how do I ever trust again?" In this episode, Joshua Lewis gives you the theological grounding to stop blaming yourself, the cultural and structural markers to help you spot a healthy church before you're two years deep in another painful situation, and the practical steps to walk back in - slowly, wisely, and without getting burned again.  If you or someone you love is theologically homeless right now or wondering how to find a healthy church, this one is worth your full attention. 0:00 – Introduction 0:15 – Church Hurt Narrative 5:24 – Disillusionment Defined 6:13 – Leadership Failures Normalized 10:12 – Enemy's Isolation Tactic 12:14 – Head vs. Heart Tension 13:27 – Nine Marks Overview 20:09 – Cultural Markers (Krueger) 27:28 – Finding a Healthy Church RESOURCES MENTIONED: 📖Nine Marks of a Healthy Church by Mark Dever https://a.co/d/01cz5F9t 📖Bully Pulpit by Michael Kruger https://a.co/d/081hfOmw 🌐9Marks Ministry: www.9marks.org ___________________________________________ INTRODUCTION TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY eCourse PRESALE: $100 OFF through May 1  LEARN MORE: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

The mainstream church doesn't want to talk about judgment, but the Bible won't stop. Dr. Tom Schreiner, one of the most respected New Testament scholars in the evangelical world and a professor at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, joins Remnant Radio for a straight-shooting conversation on what Scripture actually teaches about divine justice, eternal punishment, and why recovering this doctrine is urgent for the body of Christ right now. If you want to understand why divine justice is not God's dark side but His very goodness on display, this conversation is for you. 0:00 – Introduction 1:43 – Dr. Schreiner's Background 3:35 – Cultural Allergy to Judgment 8:07 – God's Holiness & Justice 11:19 – Wrath vs. Judgment 22:39 – Annihilationism vs. Eternal Conscious Punishment 39:09 – Jesus on Judgment 41:20 – Atonement & Propitiation 46:29 – Judgment as Vindication 50:03 – Justification & Works 56:02 – Assurance of Salvation ___________________________________________ INTRODUCTION TO DELIVERANCE MINISTRY eCourse PRESALE: $100 OFF through May 1  LEARN MORE: https://www.theremnantradio.com/intro-to-deliverance-ministry Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

Maybe history doesn't exactly repeat itself, but it does have a way of rhyming. In many charismatic spaces today, some of the most troubling patterns from pre-Reformation Rome have resurfaced, and the body of Christ deserves an honest conversation about it. As continuationists, we aren't here to tear down Spirit-filled Christianity, but rather protect it. In this episode of Remnant Radio, Joshua, Michael, and Michael walk through parallels between the errors of Rome and what we're seeing in charismatic church culture today. We'll cover the full spectrum: from the way extra-biblical practices have entered in to the church, to the devastating sexual immorality scandals that keep surfacing, to the cultural pressure that silences anyone who dares to question a prominent voice and more.
