False Teachers? - Peter Popoff, Tim Ross and Soul Survivor

[Jason Reed]

Hello,

I am a fairly new Christian. I recently stumbled across your site, and I think it is extremely helpful and encouraging. God bless you and all the work you do.

I found your list of false prophets especially interesting. Some usual suspects who I had heard of before came up, such as Todd White, Joyce Meyer and Joseph Prince, and I entirely agree with your verdicts thereof.

In this regard, I have a query. I would like to ask whether you consider the following people/groups to be false prophets too:

1. Peter Popoff - https://peterpopoff.org/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

American televangelist, famously picked out as a hoax by James Randi in 1981 (see following link).

2. Tim Ross - http://timross.org/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Texan pastor and amateur stand-up comedian, Tim's ministry appears to correlate with the structure of your identified false prophets, through the brand being centred around him, requests for donations, etc.

3: Soul Survivor - https://soulsurvivor.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Annual summer camp event in the UK and France, with strong links to a church, Soul Survivor Watford. The two main figureheads are Mike Pilavachi and Andy Croft.

I do not know whether these people/groups are false prophets, hence my contacting you for your advice. I would really appreciate it if you could give me your verdict on these people/groups, given the ability you seem to have to correctly identify false prophets.

Thank you very much for your time, and all that you do to glorify God.

I very much look forward to hearing back from you.

Kind regards and God bless

Jason, UK

Hi Jason,

Our verdict isn’t worth anything – to you or anyone else, including ourselves. Read Opinion. The Lord’s verdict alone matters, which is what you’ll find published on our site. Do you believe this?

You ask about Peter Popoff. We mention him as false in the following writings, which you need to read in full:

Shameless Scoundrels Defame Divine Healing
God Heals Today, His Way

You bring up James Randi’s investigation of Popoff. Why do you even bother asking us about Popoff when you’ve been provided with solid evidence that the man is a liar, cheat, and fraud?

And do you really believe that the Lord or His apostles carried on like Popoff does in his so-called ministry, even without proof of his scam? What Bible are you reading, if you’re reading it at all?

We’d never heard of Tim Ross or Sole Survivor, but both of them are blatantly false, purveyors of spiritual baloney and junk - men’s blasphemous imitations of the Kingdom of Heaven on earth.

Nor do we see where Tim Ross is a stand-up comedian, unless you’re being sarcastic about his preaching, which doesn’t appear to be the case. You say you don’t even know whether these phonies are false. Aren’t you reading and understanding anything on our site?

Read the introduction to the False Teachers section with the links given for instruction there (True Marks of a Cult and Diabolical Doctrines). You don’t need to know whether so-and-so is false, but to know that Jesus Christ is true, which you can only know by keeping His commandments.

Start reading our site responsibly, Jason. The Lord is holding you accountable for what we’re preaching, having brought you here to hear the truth.

Paul
