Prophecy & Tongues: Dead or Alive? 🔥 We’re challenging cessationism & making the case for supernatural power in the church today!

Did miraculous gifts really stop with the apostles? This week on Remnant Radio, Joshua Lewis, Michael Rowntree, and Michael Miller are diving into the Straight Truth Podcast’s case for cessationism and pushing back as continuationists. We’ll review Dr. Richard Caldwell’s arguments about “sign gifts” and the closing of the New Testament canon, offering a biblical defense of the Holy Spirit’s ongoing power. Discover why we believe prophecy, tongues, and healing are still vital for Christian theology, spiritual warfare, and building up the church.

Did Kim Clement, Charlie Shamp, and Mark Driscoll hear from God about the shocking events surrounding Charlie Kirk's assassination and the spiritual awakening that's followed? Tune into The Remnant Radio as we analyze these prophecies through the lens of Scripture.

In this episode, we're diving into some intriguing prophecies surrounding Charlie's Kirk's death, examining them in light of biblical prophecy and solid Christian theology. We'll look at Kim's 2011 word about an "Esther" figure with "big, beautiful eyes" who steps up to bring healing and restoration to a hurting nation—a description many are now connecting to Erika Kirk's powerful call for forgiveness after her husband's tragic death.

Then there's Charlie Shamp's July 23, 2023, prophecy (shared at Prepare the Way International Church in Phoenix and later on social media), where he talks about a "shot heard around the world" in Arizona that doesn't shut down the church but instead ignites deeper intercession, groaning prayers from the saints, and a fresh outpouring of revival with God's glory coming down like a cloud.

And we'll hear from Mark Driscoll on the spiritual warfare side, with his message pointing out the demonic forces that could be at work and how martyrdom like this might spark real repentance and shine a light on hidden corruption.

As always, we're approaching this with careful scriptural reflection—testing everything against God's Word. Tune in as we call balls and strikes on these prophetic words. Are they balls, strikes, or a mix?

What happens when faith meets finance? In this episode of Remnant Radio, we dig deep into The Religion Business to call balls & strikes on the claims made in the docuseries.

The Religion Business, a seven-part investigative documentary by Nathan Apffel and Chris Ayoub, examines corruption, financial secrecy, and ethical failures in megachurches and prosperity gospel ministries. It explores issues such as religious fraud, lack of accountability, extravagant spending by religious leaders, tax-loopholes for churches, and how donors are impacted by opaque financial practices. 

In our review, we’ll discuss the strongest arguments the film makes about churches and finances as well as examine parts we believe are over-generalized or under-substantiated.
