Naughty vs Nice: A Christian Podcast

The Deception of Dualism: Exposing False Doctrine in the Church

In this episode of Naughty vs Nice: A Christian Podcast, Todd and Laura dive deep into the dangerous influence of dualism in modern Christianity. Is Satan truly an equal force to God, or has false doctrine blurred the lines of biblical truth? We expose how occult beliefs, cultural Christianity, and theological misconceptions have crept into the church, distorting our understanding of God’s sovereignty, spiritual warfare, and the nature of evil. Using scripture, historical context, and real-world examples, we unravel how the enemy manipulates culture through division, deception, and hidden agendas. Tune in as we challenge popular Christian clichés, reveal the biblical truth about Satan’s limitations, and empower believers to stand firm in sound doctrine.
