    God's Judgment Is GOOD News | Dr. Tom Schreiner on Justice, Hell & What the Bible Actually Teaches

    The mainstream church doesn't want to talk about judgment, but the Bible won't stop.

    Are Charismatic Leaders Repeating Rome's Biggest Mistakes?

    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. If you've been burned by a church system that protected its brand over its people, this one's for you. If you're a charismatic believer who still believes in the gifts but can't ignore what you're seeing, we invite you to pull up a chair. 0:00 – Introduction 3:11 – Charismatic Self-Critique 8:40 – Papal Authority Parallels 25:07 – Unverified Miracle Claims 35:53 – Indulgences & Simony 46:42 – Extra-Biblical Practices 56:31 – Clergy as Mediators 1:05:18 – Sexual Immorality Parallels 1:09:54 – Silencing Dissent Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

    Cosmic Spiritual Warfare Explained: Eden, Nephilim, Babel, and the Victory of Jesus

    The unseen battle is more real than most of us realize — and the Bible has a lot more to say about it than we've been taught. Dr. Joel Muddamalle, director of theology and research at Proverbs 31 Ministries, joins Joshua Lewis to unpack the cosmic spiritual warfare woven throughout Scripture — from the Garden of Eden to the cross of Christ. Drawing on his PhD research in biblical theology under Dr. Patrick Schreiner and the late Dr. Michael Heiser, Joel walks us through the divine council worldview, the two-family household of God, and why the supernatural rebellion described in Genesis 6 and Deuteronomy 32:8–9 isn't just ancient history — it's the backstory of the gospel itself. We cover: -Eden as the mountain of God and the original household of the divine council -The sons of God (Ben Elohim), the Nephilim, and what Genesis 6 is actually describing -The Tower of Babel, the scattering of nations, and the gods placed over them -How Christ's death, resurrection, and ascension disarms the rulers and authorities -What spiritual warfare actually looks like in the everyday life of a believer 0:00 – Introduction 4:10 – Book’s purpose 12:13 – Numb to supernatural 18:56 – Eden as temple 24:11 – God's two-family household 32:03 – “Let us” debate 42:43 – Genesis 6 Nephilim 54:00 – Ancient myths context 1:06:05 – Babel and nations 1:16:40 – Jesus and powers 1:29:50 – Spiritual warfare today 1:40:29 – Closing thoughts ABOUT THE GUEST: 📖BOOK https://a.co/d/0i4GE3x5 Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

    Bethel Closed The BSSM Alumni Group!

    Bethel Church has shut down the BSSM Alumni Facebook Group — a 5,000+ member community where former students had been raising concerns, sharing experiences, and asking for accountability. Now Bethel has issued a public statement. We read it. We talked about it. And we're not going to pretend it doesn't raise serious questions. To be clear, we're continuationists. We believe in the ongoing work of the Spirit. We want Spirit-filled churches to thrive, which is exactly why we care when transparency breaks down, when safe church processes get sidestepped, and when "move this to proper channels" starts to sound more like damage control than genuine pastoral care. What does real accountability look like when leadership is under scrutiny? Does centralizing these conversations protect the vulnerable or does it protect the institution? What does real repentance and meaningful accountability look like when leadership is under scrutiny? If you love the gifts of the Spirit and you love the Word, you already know these two things aren't in tension: a church can be Spirit-filled and biblically accountable. We're holding out for both. This conversation is for anyone who cares about charismatic theology, church reform, and building communities where the most vulnerable are protected - not silenced. 0:00 – Introduction 1:39 – Alumni Page Overview 3:36 – Reading Bethel's Statement 8:01 – Silencing Victims 14:14 – Ben Armstrong Investigation 18:42 – Double-Speak Exposed 22:01 – Path to Repentance Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

    It's Not Just Bethel & IHOP: How to Handle Exposure in Your Own Church

    We've spent a lot of time talking about what biblical accountability looks like at the national level - Bethel, Shawn Bolz, Mike Bickle, Chris Reed, or Michael Brown to name a few - examining cover-up culture that protects powerful leaders while silencing victims. But here's the question we keep getting in the comments and in our inboxes: What do I do when it's happening in my own church? That's a harder question — and honestly, a more important one. In this episode, Joshua Lewis, Michael Miller, and Michael Rowntree come back to ground level: your actual local church, where you know these people, where your kids go to Sunday school, where you serve. What does Matthew 18 actually look like when you're sitting across the table from an elder who won't listen? When do you escalate? When do you leave? When do you go public following 1 Timothy 5 — and is that ever right for a layperson to do? We're walking through the biblical process step by step, giving you real categories for navigating one of the hardest situations a believer can face. This isn't about gossip, mob justice, or protecting institutions. It's about protecting people — and honoring the Word of God in the process. 0:00 – Introduction 3:10 – Local Church Exposure Questions 4:28 – Sins Requiring Public Exposure 15:37 – Handling Private Repentant Sin  26:00 – Matthew 18 Church Discipline 36:38 – Church Whistleblower Accountability 45:26 – 1 Timothy 5 Elders Discipline 52:38 – When to Go Public  54:45 – Leaving Abusive Church Leadership 1:00:23 – Dangers of Toxic Church Culture 1:01:35 – Healthy Repentance and Discipline Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

    What are Words of Knowledge and Words of Wisdom? 1 Corinthians 12 Explained

    Paul lists words of wisdom and words of knowledge in 1 Corinthians 12:8 alongside healings, miracles, prophecy, tongues, and interpretation. But he never defines them. That silence has sparked a real debate in the body of Christ, and in this episode Michael Rowntree works through it carefully. Are these giftings simply elevated Bible teaching, or are they something more? Are they specific, Spirit-initiated operations that reveal hidden things, provide supernatural guidance, and speak into real-life situations? Michael walks through the major interpretive positions, from cessationist scholars like Dr. Tom Schreiner to charismatic perspectives. He'll examine the biblical moments that make you stop: Jesus knowing the woman at the well's full story before she said a word (John 4:17–18). Peter confronting Ananias and Sapphira with information no one told him (Acts 5:1–11). Paul warning a ship's captain of coming disaster before a storm cloud appeared (Acts 27:9–10). Are those words of knowledge and words of wisdom in action? By the end you'll have working definitions of revelation, prophecy, word of knowledge, and word of wisdom. And you'll sit with Paul's deeper question: are we using these gifts to exalt Jesus and build up the body of Christ, or to build a platform for ourselves? 0:00 – Introduction 0:04 – Defining the question 0:34 – Reading 1 Corinthians 12 1:52 – Cessationist teaching view 3:17 – Contextual pushback 5:22 – Word of knowledge defined 6:15 – Word of wisdom defined 7:19 – Cluster of extraordinary gifts 8:24 – Knowledge under prophecy 11:05 – Blending gift categories 14:34 – Defining key terms 16:00 – Using gifts rightly 16:37 – Closing thoughts Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

    Exposure Ministry: Is It Biblical?

    Is “exposure ministry” biblical or just Christian gossip? In this episode of Remnant Radio, we dig into what the New Testament actually says about exposing sin, calling out false teachers, and practicing church discipline, and we ask the hard question: when does discernment become destruction of the body of Christ? We walk through passages like Ephesians 5, Matthew 18, and 1 Timothy 5 and explore: when does the Bible command us to bring things into the light, who is responsible to confront it, and what is the end goal—repentance, restoration, and protection of the flock, or outrage and entertainment? If you’ve ever wondered whether calling out false teachers online is a prophetic assignment or a fleshly hobby, this episode will help you think biblically and critically. 0:00 – Introduction 0:47 – Exposure vs Coverup Culture 4:42 – Biblical Theology Exposure Ministry 11:15 – Leaders Accountable Biblical Law 14:38 – Elders Duty Investigating Sin 18:04 – Communal Responsibility 21:14 – Culpability Remaining Silent  32:48 – Prophets Confronting Institutional Power 36:40 – Misapplying Matthew 18 Rebukes 39:13 – John the Baptist Public Rebukes 43:15 – Jesus Correcting Pharisees Publicly 52:08 – Paul Rebuking Peter  54:57 – Protecting the Flock  59:17 – Defining Slander  106:04 – Navigating Unhealthy Church Cultures 115:14 – Closing  Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

    Can You Train Spiritual Gifts?

    Can you train someone in spiritual gifts? Joshua Lewis walks through why training doesn’t manufacture gifts of the Spirit, but rather creates a biblical, accountable community to discover and steward the spiritual gifts God has already given. If you’ve wondered how to grow in spiritual gifts without sliding into charismatic chaos, this episode will give you biblical categories, guardrails, and practical next steps. You’ll see why training in spiritual gifts is less about hype and more about cultivating a theologically serious, Jesus-centered community that pursues Christian theology with real accountability. 0:00 – Introduction 0:31 – What training isn’t 1:41 – Sovereign gifts explained 2:12 – Impartation, Paul’s role 2:51 – Rejecting unbiblical methods 3:45 – Training defined biblically 5:50 – Prophecy and healing model 6:12 – How God speaks 7:44 – Practicing prophecy safely 8:30 – Objections and schools 9:35 – Summary of training approach Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.
