823: The Little Season and Satan’s Release

In this episode, Tony is joined by Ed Mabrie and Joel Thomas for a direct refutation of Little Season theology, a teaching that claims Satan has already been loosed and end-times prophecy is unfolding in a radically redefined way. Together, they dismantle the core claims of the movement by walking carefully through Scripture, exposing where the theory stretches biblical text, ignores historical context, and creates confusion about Christ’s victory, Satan’s binding, and the nature of the age we are living in. Rather than chasing speculative timelines, the conversation calls believers back to sound doctrine, biblical literacy, and discernment in an era flooded with persuasive but unstable teachings. This is a grounded, Scripture-first response to a growing movement, urging Christians to test every doctrine and remain anchored in truth rather than trend.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.
