Therefore, everything is subject to the “word” she claims God gave her, including the Bible. The reason she did a message about being caught in a “net” is because, in her mind, God told her to. But Beth believes her thoughts are God’s thoughts. ![]() Where does this word come from? It comes from no where but their own mind. ![]() A false prophetess like Cindy Jacobs will say, “The word of the Lord for this year is Breakthrough!” It’s as if we’re in Pee Wee’s Playhouse and God is playing the secret word game. In this particular message, Beth began by saying that she asked God to give her a word, and the word He gave her was “net.” This is mysticism, and it’s exactly how the word-faith false teachers and prophets bloviate. Exegesis is the way we are meant to study, teach, and understand the Bible. ![]() This is opposed to exegesis, which means to “draw out” from the text its originally intended meaning. In case you’re not familiar with this term, eisegesis means to take a passage of the Bible out of context and “impose upon” the text your own ideas. On the day that I read your message, I pulled up the latest episode of her podcast entitled The Net, a message she gave at a Living Proof women’s conference. As I’ve demonstrated in the past, you could grab any message of Beth’s at random and find the same troubling elements, including eisegesis, mysticism, pop psychology, and positivity. In the pantheon of false teachers in American evangelicalism, few are as deceptively influential among women as Beth Moore. Why does this make you sick? Does it not sicken you that there are false teachers perverting the truth, with “mere speculation rather than furthering the stewardship from God that is by faith” (1 Timothy 1:4)? How do you accuse the ones speaking truth of being without love? Susan Heck, a humble teacher who has memorized the entire New Testament, desires to educate women about God’s word, proclaiming the truth and defending against error (I’m guessing the interview you saw was this one she did with Justin Peters). Owen Strachan that he made her want to vomit, just for saying what the Bible says? How was that not vitriolic? You called this “vitriol.” But where? What did I say that was cruel and bitter? Did you not read in my article where Beth said of Dr. As a pastor, I am to teach the truth of the gospel and protect the flock of God from error, and this I do in love. Friend, the Bible says, “Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world” (1 John 4:1).Ī pastor’s responsibility is to “hold firm to the trustworthy word as taught, so that he may be able to give instruction in sound doctrine, and to rebuke those who contradict it” (Titus 1:9). I agree with you: Beth “is clearly doing what she thinks God wants her to do.” And what she thinks is wrong. Thank you for taking the time to read my article on Beth Moore and for sending your e-mail. Where, I ask, did you all miss the Biblical exhortation that “the greatest of these is love”? There is no love in your critiques-none-despite your protestations to the contrary. She is clearly doing what she thinks God wants her to do. ![]() Same with all these other articles slamming Ms. I watched a video interview of Susan Heck-also a newcomer to me-and frankly her self-righteousness made me sick to my stomach. Somehow I stumbled onto all this vitriol about Beth Moore, someone I’d never even heard of before last week. ![]()
