Calling Out Every False Teacher by Name | Justin Peters

Kenneth Copeland, founder of Kenneth Copeland Ministries, is the most infamous of false teachers.

Undoubtedly, you know, Mr. Copeland, that I call you out publicly for the false teacher, the heretic, and the charlatan that you are.

Whatever you do right now, don't you stop tithing. Don't you stop sowing offerings.

The day will come, you'll walk out of it, in the name of Jesus. Thank you,

Lord. Copeland has taught countless things that are completely antithetical to what scripture teaches.

And now is the time to call for the return on your tithing and on your giving and your sowing over the years.

Standing in the office of the prophet of God, I execute judgment on you,

COVID -19. COVID -19, I blow the wind of God on you.

You are destroyed forever. I do not hate you. I do hate what you do because you have uttered some of the most jaw -dropping heresies and blasphemies and manifestly obvious false prophecies that have ever disgraced the name of Christ and brought reproach on the gospel.

Copeland even taught that God was a failure. I was shocked when I found out who the biggest failure in the

Bible actually is. The biggest one in the whole Bible is God. And Kenneth Copeland goes on to explain that God is a failure because he lost his most anointed angel.

And when Adam and Eve fell, he says he lost the earth. So God was a failure. Of course, that is blasphemy.

That is blasphemy. When Adam and Eve sinned, that is not something that caught God off guard.

The Bible says that the lamb was slain before the foundation of the world is blasphemy to teach that God is any kind of a failure.

These people are not Christians. They are not Christians. They do not know the God of the Bible. Joel Osteen, pastor of Lakewood Church, teaches a fundamentally anti -scriptural view of human nature.

He approves you. You have to approve yourself. 99 .9 % of people are not bad people.

They may make poor choices, but deep down, they've got a good heart. Joel Osteen says that one thing he can assure us is that 99 .9

% of people are not bad people. Well, what does the Bible have to say about this? Apostle Paul seems to think differently.

He says, there is none righteous, not even one. There is none who does good.

No, not one. Friends, 99 .9 % of people are not good people.

100 % of people are bad people. You're a bad person. I'm a bad person.

And does not teach people they are sinners. I say most people are beaten down enough by life.

They already feel guilty enough. They're not doing what they should do, raising their kids. We can all find reasons.

So I want them to come to Lakewood or our meetings and be lifted up to say, you know what? I may not be perfect, but I'm moving forward.

I'm doing better. And I think that motivates you to do better. This means that Osteen does not teach the gospel of salvation from sin through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone.

In fact, Osteen has even taught that non -Christians can be saved. I've spent a lot of time in India with my father and, you know,

I don't know all about the religion, but I know they love God and I don't know, I'd have to, you know, I've seen their sincerity.

So I don't know. You know, of course, I believe in Christ as the savior and all. But, you know, I think too,

Glenn, I've spent a lot of time in India, you know, I've been with a lot of Hindu people. They're nice, kind, you know, people that love

God as well. No, Hindus do not love God because they do not know God.

How can you love someone who you don't even know? And dear friends, Joel Osteen is doing no one any favors by telling the world that Hindus love

God, especially not the Hindus. He continues to deny that Jesus is the only way to be saved.

And so Joel Osteen is a false teacher. He is a false prophet. Joseph Prince, pastor of New Creation Church in Singapore, teaches this about repentance.

You know, the word repentance, like Joel said, is from the Greek word metanoia, which literally means change your mind.

And every time like Joel or me preaching the word without using the word repentance sometimes, but people's minds are being changed all the time.

From thinking this way negatively to thinking positively, from depression to having a positive expectation of good.

You know, repentance is going on all the time in Joel's church, in my church, and hopefully in your church as well. And you don't have to have this breast -beating shout,

Oh, Jesus, Jesus. Of course, that is not biblical repentance. So Joseph Prince says that the

Greek word for repentance is metanoia. And you know what? He's right. That is the Greek word for repentance. And then he says the word metanoia means to change your mind.

Guess what? Right again. That is what that word means. But then did you notice how he fleshed it out? He said, we may not use the word repentance.

I mean, heaven forbid we actually use biblical terminology in our preaching. We wouldn't want to do that. So Joel and I, we may not use the word repentance, but we're, trust us, we're still teaching people to repent when they go from thinking negatively to thinking positively.

That's not repentance. According to his definition of repentance, we could all repent simply by joining the

Optimist Club. You know, just having a sunnier outlook on life. Everything's just sunshine and lollipops and unicorns all the time.

That's not repentance. Metanoia does mean a change in mind, but genuine repentance comes when

God grants repentance. And when God grants repentance, yes, our minds are changed, but everything about us is changed.

Our desires are changed. Our affections are changed and there is fruit in keeping with repentance.

Price also attacks those who point out the errors of the prosperity gospel. Okay. When, when

God restored the truth of healing, the devil put a signpost that said heresy. Yeah. When, when God restored the truth of prosperity, the devil put a signpost that says heresy.

Yeah. And the church back off from the truth. We should not back away from the truth. No, no. And, and you can tell how powerful the truth is by the amount of controversies against the truth.

What he's saying is that those people who actually care about the real gospel, who care about sound doctrine, who have a love for good theology, you know, who rightly divide the word of truth and warn people about the appeal to fallen human desires.

He is saying those kinds of people, those are heretics. They're heresy hunters. They're legalists.

They're Pharisees. But no, the people to whom he's referring that put up the signposts, these warnings about the appeal to health and wealth are actually the remnant of God's faithful people who care about sound doctrine and who want to teach people the truth.

Joyce Meyer, president of Joyce Meyer Ministries, teaches the prosperity gospel and doesn't feel bad about it at all.

I think that's what they mean by prosperity gospel. No, but you worry at all that sometimes your message will be heard by someone in the most dire circumstances.

It's a sort of roulette wheel, a sort of gamble with God. Okay. Well, I can't pay the rent, but I'll give it to Joyce and we'll see what happens.

Do you worry at all that that happens? I totally know. I don't worry about that. Joyce Meyer says, no, I totally don't worry about that.

Well, I'm sure she doesn't, but she should. But the prosperity gospel doesn't seem to be a bad thing. The prosperity gospel is not the biblical gospel because right now, even as we speak, and there are people at home, they are poor, they are sick, they are desperate, they have sick children.

And so in desperation, they get out their checkbook or they get out their credit card and they send in money to these multimillionaire preachers who fly in private jets.

But when your wealth is gained off of preying upon the hopes and fears of hurting and sick and desperate people, there's a lot wrong with that.

When your wealth is gained off of distorting the gospel of Jesus Christ, there's a lot wrong with that.

And Meyer twists scripture to support her unbiblical teachings. Third John 2 says, beloved,

I pray that you might prosper in every way and that your body might keep well, even as I know your soul prospers and keeps well.

So we see right there that God wants us to be healthy. Can everybody say God wants me to be healthy? This is not a theological statement.

This is not a doctrinal statement. It's not a statement of teaching. It's not a didactic, not a teaching statement.

It's simply a common greeting to a letter. Nothing more and nothing less. And the faith preachers know it, but they don't want you to know it because it just happens to fit their theology.

Hey, this is Michael. Yeah, the real Michael. If you like these videos, would you consider subscribing?

It helps YouTube spread this message to more people. I'm giving away a beautiful handcrafted leather Bible every week, and I'm trying to pass

Kenneth Copeland in subscribers to show that truth wins over false teaching. Thank you so much for your eyeballs and support.

Stephen Furtick, pastor of Elevation Church, essentially teaches the word of faith heresy that humans are little gods.

I'm in covenant with God Almighty. I am God Almighty. I am

God Almighty. Now, people, again, have tried to pass that off as a flub.

It was a gaffe. He didn't really mean it. And I was kind of tempted to say, you know, just a just a

Joe Biden moment or something like that, you know, just a gap. But I don't think it was a gaffe because it's not the first time he has said this.

Furtick has never apologized or issued a correction after he said, I am God Almighty.

Furtick teaches that God needs us to show his nature through. Let us make man in our image.

God needed someone to show the world what he looked like or else he would have just been a concept. God would have been an abstract theory.

So he made man and woman to reflect who he was. He needed someone to show his nature through.

So he made me and you. OK, dear friends, you just heard Stephen Furtick say twice that God needs us.

This is standard word faith theology, the belief that God needs us. Creflo Dollar is one example.

He says God needs your consent and cooperation to bring forth a manifestation in the earth.

And that is just one of I could literally give you hundreds of examples of word faith teachers saying that God needs us is pretty standard word faith theology.

And here you see Stephen Furtick teaching the same thing because his theology is becoming increasingly word faith.

And Furtick endorses and promotes other pastors who teach numerous heresies, most notably

T .D. Jakes. That Stephen Furtick is now for all intents and purposes, word faith. Stephen Furtick has been hanging out and partnering with and endorsing known word faith false teachers.

And we can begin by looking at who Stephen Furtick openly says is his model preacher, the man to whom he looks up more than any other man.

Any other person, any other preacher, his model in ministry is T .D. Jakes, the pastor of Potter's House Church in Dallas, Texas.

T .D. Jakes, pastor of the Potter's House, teaches numerous heresies such as the prosperity gospel.

The blessing is in what you got left. And if you will sow what you got left,

God said, I'll give you back whatever it was. The more you give to me, the more

I give back to you. Word of faith and modalism, which is a denial of the

Trinity. If you want to best understand the relationship between Christ and God, next time you have a glass of water, put some ice in it.

How can one element be three things at the same time and still be one?

It happens in your kitchen every day. This is problematic because T .D.

Jakes is not only prosperity gospel. He's not only word of faith. He is oneness

Pentecostal. And what that means is as a oneness Pentecostal, T .D.

Jakes rejects the doctrine of the Trinity. He does not believe in the

Trinity. He holds to something known as modalism. Jesse Duplantis, founder of Jesse Duplantis Ministries, teaches all kinds of heresies.

Well, that Jesse Duplantis, he doing good. And we ain't used to give our tithe over there. We went to a church and they need it more.

Oh, and I'm not against giving to the poor. Listen, oh, you just changed the rate of exchange on the tithe.

Yeah, but I gave it a tithe. Yeah, but you turned it into alms. I'm going to say something, I'm going to knock your lights off.

God has the power to take life. But he can't. He got the power to do it, but he won't. He's bound. He can't.

He says death and life is in the power of whose tongue? Yours. You ready for this? You want something to knock your lights off?

You choose when you live. You choose when you die. Death and life's in the power of your tongue. Duplantis is one of the most blatant false teachers out there.

Jesse Duplantis is a, oh gosh, Jesse Duplantis is one of the most obvious false teachers that you could ever imagine.

And this is a guy who claims that he went to heaven on a cable car. I mean, Jesse Duplantis is just,

I mean, if you, if you can't tell that Jesse Duplantis is a false teacher, then you probably should not be allowed outside of the home without adult supervision.

I mean, it is just that obvious that he is a false teacher. Just blatantly obvious. Duplantis thinks

God asked him for his opinion. Friends have frank and open conversations with each other.

I've done that with the Lord. I've had the Lord say, Jesse, I've had God come tell me, he said, this is what I'm going to do. I've had the Lord, he said, what do you think about this?

God has asked me for my opinion. I said, well, Lord, since you asked, maybe I'm doing it.

He said, no, we can talk frankly. What do you think? I said, well, I don't think you ought to do that. He said, why you don't think I ought to do that?

I said, well, you know, I know, you know, people more than I do, but you know, Lord, if you just let me, let me do a little bit more work on this individual,

I think we can get them to you. He says, okay, go ahead, do what you have to do. And I tell you what, the Bible says he who wins souls is wise.

Yes. And he who thinks he can counsel God is a fool. Benny Hinn, famous for his supposed healing crusades, said that he was done teaching the prosperity gospel.

I think it's an offense to the Lord. It's an offense to say, give a thousand dollars.

I'm done with it. I will never again ask you to give a thousand or whatever amounts, because I think the

Holy ghost is just fed up with it. No, I think it's time. We say it like it is.

The gospel is not for sale. However, soon afterwards, Hinn went right back to teaching the prosperity gospel.

Here's what you need to do. You need to make a vow to God and say, Lord, I want to do such and such for you.

Please bring me out of this problem. You will see God move on your behalf real fast, because in every case, even in the

Bible, it was instant. Why don't you do that? Why don't you make a financial vow to the

Lord right now, while I'm talking to you, if you're facing a problem and watch what

God will do with you. He has not repented. I would love nothing more than for him to repent.

I genuinely want Benny Hinn to come to true repentance from sin and true faith in the real

Lord Jesus Christ. But clearly that has not happened. He continues to teach the same thing today about seed faith, sowing seed to reap a harvest and giving him money in exchange for a miracle.

He continues to teach the same thing today that he has taught for all of these many years, nearly 50 years now.

It's teaching the same thing. Hinn teaches all kinds of heresies. See, God, the father is a person.

God, the son is a person. God, the Holy ghost is a person, but each one of them is a triune being by himself.

If I can shock you, and maybe I should, there's nine of them. God came from heaven, became a man, made man into little gods, went back to heaven as a man, he faces the father as a man,

I face devils as the son of God. And Hinn's supposed healings are based on deception.

Because Benny Hinn knows the difference between psychosomatic and organic healings, charlatans do this all the time.

This is not a real healing, dear ones. This is, these are psychosomatic healings. There's basically, generally speaking, there's two different kinds of so -called healings, psychosomatic, mind over body, psycho, mind, soma, body, mind over body, the placebo effect.

And then there are organic healings. Now psychosomatic healings happen all the time.

When you're in a closed environment with emotionally charged music and everybody's kind of, they're singing, they're all of, of thinking about the same thing.

And they're all, you have this kind of group think, group dynamics going on. And you're expecting miracles to happen.

You're expecting something to happen then, and you're wanting it so badly. And you can make yourself feel better for a little while.

And for a little while, you do feel better. Creflo Dollar, founder of Christian World Changes Church International, blatantly teaches the prosperity gospel.

If I want to believe God for a $65 million plane, you cannot stop me.

You cannot stop me from dreaming. Harvest responds only to seed, not to prayer.

Harvest responds only to seed, not to prayer, not to fasting.

Or any kind of position you have. Find you some piece of money, find you something to sow. If it's money you need, whatever the harvest is, you need to come up.

If it's money, you're going to have to sow money. You can't talk about, I'm going to sow my time. You're just going to get a vacation.

No money. Dollar also teaches all kinds of heresies, including the little God's heresy.

But I'm going to say to you right now, you are God's little G. You are

God's because you came from God and you are God. You're not just human. The only human part about you is this physical body that you live in.

The real me is just like God. The real me is just like God.

Blasphemy difference. When the Bible says that God created man in his image, that means that as human beings, you and I are the pinnacle of God's creation.

We're the pinnacle of his creation. And we have the potential and the capacity through a saving relationship with Jesus Christ to know

God. None of the other created order has that privilege and ability.

Bill Johnson, pastor of Bethel church, is a new apostolic Reformation teacher who teaches numerous heresies, such as the kenosis heresy.

Do you know that Jesus so restricted his function on earth that he actually couldn't heal anyone?

He couldn't multiply food. He couldn't cast out devils. He couldn't do any of that stuff because he had restricted himself to the life of a human being that would have to be dependent on the father through the

Holy Spirit. But they also have a very low view of Christ. Their Christology is very errant.

They get into the kenosis, the belief that Jesus completely divested himself of deity while he was on earth.

The purpose of the kenosis heresy is to open up the possibility for Christians to perform all kinds of miracles that are unsupported by scripture.

Now, if he did miracles as God, I'm still impressed. But I'm reduced to an observer. I stand back and go, that's amazing.

God, that's amazing. But the New Testament was different. The New Testament shifted where everyone gets to be involved in that which

God is doing. Well, they make Jesus small because they want to make man big.

And they believe that if you are a Christian, then you stand on equal footing with Christ, that you have all the rights, all the privileges of Jesus.

You can do greater works than these, which they totally take out of context. You're just like Jesus.

You have all the authority. You have all the power that he did. Sid Roth, host of It's Supernatural, teaches that people can learn the supernatural gift of tongues just by making random sounds.

I can't do it for you, but I can tell you how to pray in supernatural languages. So you start speaking like little baby words and say them as fast as you humanly can and begin to pray in a language you've never been instructed.

Come on, if you don't move your tongue and speak, no one else will do it.

I know you don't know what to say. Make little nonsense syllables up there, not nonsense, but if the first words coming out of your spirit, do it faster.

I said faster. I said faster. You can do it faster than that. If I had a gun in your ribs, you'd do it faster.

If this is something for which the Holy Spirit gives us utterance, why in the world would it ever be necessary to teach people how to do it?

Andrew Womack, a charismatic TV evangelist and faith healer, teaches that God guarantees physical healing.

Jesus placed your and my sickness and diseases, infirmities upon Jesus, and he bore them 2 ,000 years ago.

If he already paid for your healing, how can you doubt that you are healed?

Womack twists scripture to teach what he wants it to teach. Andrew Womack just taught that healing is provided for in the atonement.

And he, of course, appeals to Isaiah 53, 4 and 5. And so let's look at the context of the passage.

It becomes very clear to us when we read the very next verse. Very clearly, the primary context of Isaiah 53 is not physical healing.

It's spiritual healing, not healing from sickness and disease, healing from sin.

Rod Parsley, pastor of World Harvest Church, blatantly teaches the prosperity gospel.

I'm going to stand up in faith and I'm going to sow an Isaiah 54, 17 seed of $54 .17.

Let's go to the phone. Do it right now. Go to the phone. Like other prosperity teachers, Parsley completely butchers what scripture actually teaches.

When this was written, there was no chapter 54, verse 17. And yet you see prosperity preachers do this all the time based on Isaiah 54, 17 or some other verse that they like that happens to fit their theology.

And they are counting on their followers and their listeners being biblically illiterate so that they can fall for their schemes.

These people are charlatans. John Hagee, founder of John Hagee Ministries, is another blatant prosperity gospel teacher.

Principle four, you determine the size of your harvest when you sow your seed. Do you need a big harvest?

Then you sow lots of seed. But what scripture teaches about sowing seed is different from what

Hagee teaches. Do you need a big harvest? Then you sow lots of seed. So if you have cancer or if you have a sick and dying child, you had best dig deeply because the bigger miracle you need, the bigger monetary seed you'd better sow.

Dear friends, sowing and reaping is a biblical concept. It is. But more often than not, when the

Bible talks about sowing seed, the seed to which it refers is itself.

Larry Huck and Paula White reject scriptures clear teaching that Jesus is the only begotten son of God.

Jesus is not the only begotten son of God. He is not. I'm a son of God.

You're that he's the first fruit. He's the first born of many. Jesus is not the only begotten son of God.

Can you believe that flat out denying that Jesus is the only begotten son of God?

Have they read John 3 16? I mean, honestly, friends, friends, we're not talking about minor theological differences here.

We're not talking about the date of the Exodus or who wrote the book of Hebrews. These issues go to the heart of Christianity.

What one believes about Jesus will determine where one spends eternity. And again, please hear me.

It is not enough to believe in Jesus. You've got to believe in the right

Jesus. Rick Warren, pastor of Saddleback Church and author of The Purpose Driven Life, has an unbiblical view of human nature that leads him to saying this about hell.

To go to hell, you have to do almost the impossible. You have to reject the love of God. You have to do almost the impossible.

What you have to do, you have to reject the grace of Jesus. But of course, scripture teaches the opposite.

Did you catch that? Rick Warren said to go to hell, you've got to do almost the impossible.

So Rick Warren says it is almost impossible to go to hell. That is a shockingly unbiblical statement.

Dear friends, it is not almost impossible to go to hell. Everybody on earth is running to hell just as fast as their little fallen feet will carry them because that is what they want.

They want the desires of their fallen human flesh and everybody is going to hell and God in his mercy offers an escape.

Scripture says that the gate is wide. The way is broad that leads to destruction.

But the gate that leads to life is small in the way that leads to life narrow and few there be who find it.

Oh, Todd White, pastor of Cornerstone Community Church, says he has repented.

It's hard for me. It's hard for me because I feel like I haven't preached the whole gospel and I repent.

I repent. However, White has never repented of obviously and knowingly performing fake miracles.

Charlatans and snake oil salesmen have been doing this trick for decades.

It's slight of hand. But Todd, the leg lengthening routine, this is the trick that you are most well known for.

And it is just that it's a trick. Todd, I know how you do it. Lots of people know how you do it. It's been exposed as to how you do it by altering the angle of people's legs and the and the angle of their feet manipulating very slowly.

So it's not real obvious, but manipulating the angle of their legs and the in the in the tilt of their their feet.

Todd, when you command legs to grow, you know full well that leg isn't growing. It's a trick.

You're very good at it. But that's an old trick. Charlatans have been doing this for decades. You've just been doing it on YouTube and putting it out there so everybody can see it.

But it's a trick and you know it's a trick. It's intentional deception, Todd. You have been intentionally deceiving.

Also, White has never repented of saying that he does not sin anymore. Came and gave me this blank canvas.

He came and gave me this pure heart and I've never violated it with anything. You can actually have the words so strong inside of your heart that you never have to slip.

People are like, well, that's false. That's not true. Well, you're wrong. I live with me. Clearly, White is completely unfit for ministry.

Jesus became sex trafficking on a tree. Oh, my gosh. Jesus became every lustful thought on a tree.

It's no joke. It's real. Jesus became child molester on a tree.

That is absolutely disgusting. Your whole pornography thing, you think like no one knows it.

God's watching it with you. He waits till you reach climax. God, if he only knew me, if he only knew me, if he only desired to know me,

I would be his climax. And then and then he says, speaking for God, speaking on behalf of God in relation to this man in the bed watching pornography.

Oh, if this, you know, if this man only knew, had intimacy with me, I would I would be his.

I can't even repeat that. I can't even repeat that. And if if you if you can in any way muster any kind of defense of that kind of filth, any kind of defense on behalf of Todd White for what he said in this clip,
