Sylvie Croslard and other speakers weave Scripture readings with calls to spiritual cleansing. They cite Matthew, Jude, and 1 John to urge listeners to test spirits, reject false prophets, and clear out modern idolatries like excessive media and museums that preserve dead versions of ourselves.

Hello, welcome to this week's podcast.
We're going to free fly.
For you to come into all of what you were originally meant to be. It's the time of the great uncovering.
The great tearing off of all that's been hindering, all that's been covering, that shouldn't be covering, that shouldn't be hindering. Let the unclogging begin.
Matthew chapter 10, verse 40.
He who receives and welcomes you receives me, and who receives me receives him who sent me.
Verse 41.
He who receives and welcomes a prophet because he's a prophet will receive a prophet's reward, and he who receives a righteous man because he is a righteous man will receive a righteous man's reward.
Are you received yet? Who's receiving you? And who's rejecting you? Watch, watch, observe. Where are you received and where are you rejected? Where are you cheered on? Where are you blessed? Where are you applauded? Yeah, don't settle for the applause of men, but settle for the angelic applause, for the trumpets of heaven. That's all that you should be settling for, nothing else. Everything else will show of that. For underneath all these, there is an original— oh, an original design, an original version of you that no one has seen yet because it's not been on display, it's not been out for all to see.
Jude the Seraphim, chapter 3, verse 1. Family, brothers and sisters, pray continually for us that the word of the Lord will spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you. Let's do— and that we will be rescued from perverses and evil men, for not everyone has the faith. Verse 3: But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and will protect and guard you from the evil one. Verse 4: We have confidence in the Lord concerning you that you are doing and will continue to do the things we command.
Where's your obedience? Where are you falling short? Where is it that you are not in full obedience, in full alignment with heaven, but are you making excuses not to do what heaven told you to do ages ago?
Come on, begin the deep search.
Crack your brains if you need to. You can rack your brains, all right.
1 John chapter 4, verse 1. Testing the spirits.
Beloved, do not believe every spirit.
Instead, test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets and teachers have gone out into the world. Verse 2: But by this you know and recognize the Spirit of God: every spirit that acknowledges and confesses that Jesus come— that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God. Verse 3: And every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not of God. This is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard is coming and is now already in the world. Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. Jesus Christ is our King. Jesus Christ rules and reigns over us, over our hearts, minds, body, souls, and spirits. And Idolatry is in the wrong habits.
Idolatry is in the too much watching of videos, the too much watching of television, the too much watching going to the cinema, the too much going to the museums where the dead have been preserved.
Museums are the places of preservation of the dead things. What is it that you've made a museum of?
Thank you, Lord Jesus, for opening our eyes to all the places where we have been building mausoleums, museums, to preserve the dead things, the dead versions of ourselves, the dead Mandates, the dead mantles, the dead anointings.
1 John chapter 4, verse 7. God is love. Beloved, let us love and seek the best for one another, for love is from God, and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. The one who does not love has not been acquainted with God, for God is love. But this is the love of God as displayed in us, in that God has sent only begotten Son, who is truly unique, the only one of his kind, into the world so that we might live through him. I'm in verse 9 now. Verse 10: In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation, the propitiation, sorry, for our sins. Verse 11: Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
Love is confrontation.
Love is telling it as it is.
Love is calling a spade a spade and taking hold of the spade to dig.
Go digging, go confront, go call out and expel what has to get called out and expelled. Get rid Get rid. It's time to get rid.
You're clearing out.
You can't make excuses to keep things. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for keeping us clearing out. This week until you tell us to stop, until you deem that we are ready to stop, so that the new fly can run freely through us.
