Contending for the Word

Discerning False Light: Standing Firm in the Truth


Listen Later

In this episode of The Weekly Watch, part of the Contending for the Word podcast, Dave Jenkins examines how Satan disguises himself as an angel of light and how false spiritual "light" leads people away from the Christ revealed in Scripture. Many modern messages sound compassionate and enlightened, but at their core, they deny the sufficiency and authority of God's Word. From 2 Corinthians 11:13–15, we learn that deception doesn't always look dark it often appears bright, gentle, and persuasive. Dave explains how to discern false light in the New Age, in counterfeit "prophetic" movements, and even within the visible church. True light, he reminds us, humbles sinners, exposes sin, magnifies Christ, and aligns us with the Word of God. Key Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 11:13–15; Genesis 3; John 8:12; Ephesians 5:8–11; Romans 13:12; Ephesians 6:10–18; 1 John 4:1 Theme: Standing firm in biblical truth, testing the spirits, and walking in the light of Christ. Summary: Satan's deceptions don't come with horns and darkness they come disguised as light. This episode calls Christians to test everything by Scripture, reject spiritual counterfeits, and stand firm in the true light of Christ.
