In this brief sermon, the speaker warns listeners about the proliferation of false teachings and self‑appointed "TikTok prophets," pastors, and evangelists who speak without true authority. He emphasizes the necessity of "eating the word"—actively consuming and internalizing Scripture—rather than offering vague encouragements like "feed your spirit." To illustrate the seriousness of precise, scripturally‑grounded teaching, he points listeners to Deuteronomy 8:3, recalling Moses’ final address to the wilderness generation as they prepared to enter the Promised Land. Moses, an aging leader about to die, urges the people who have known only manna to understand the purpose of their 40‑year journey, underscoring the importance of remembering God’s provision and instruction. The speaker uses this biblical example to call modern believers to prioritize the literal Word of God over trendy, superficial spiritual messages.

Chapters

Beware of false teachings and false prophets. Eat the word. We've TikTok prophets, we have TikTok pastors, we have TikTok evangelists, we have— everybody's ticking and talking. Ah, but, but God has called us, those of us who, who hear his voice to feed on his word, because we need to be precise. We cannot just say, feed your spirit, and leave the room guessing what that means. I can't say that. I can't do that. That would be terrible pastoring. Turn with me to Deuteronomy chapter 8, verse 3. This is Moses preaching his last sermon. He is an old man. He is about to die. He will not cross the Jordan with them, and he is standing in front of a generation that was born in the wilderness. Kids who grew up eating manna every morning of their lives and never knew anything else. And Moses wants them to understand what just happened to them. He wants them to understand what those 40 years were actually about.
