The Real Deception: Apostles, Prophets, and NAR?

Jesus warned that the last days would be marked by a great deception so subtle it would nearly deceive the elect. In this episode of The Big Picture audio podcast, we confront what that deception really looks like inside the Church and why so many believers are being spiritually disarmed rather than equipped.

This teaching exposes how partial truth, fear-driven theology, and the rejection of God’s full design for equipping the Church leave believers vulnerable to deception. Scripture shows that God established clear patterns for maturity, discernment, and spiritual clarity, yet many have been taught to distrust the very gifts meant to prepare them for this hour. The result is not holiness, but confusion. An unequipped Church is easy to distract. A grounded Church is difficult to deceive.
