Crushed by the Call: Pentecostalism’s Super Ministry Obsession - EP73

What this episode covers

Pentecostals are often riddled with anxiety about their callings. Primarily because callings require a lot of intense searching, begging God, and fear about losing them. This is what “pastors” of controlling churches will infer, at least. In this episode, Justin and Tiffany expose error propagated by the UPCI, and systems like it, that teaches its members to approach their calling with works, skepticism, and worry. All unbiblical. Believers’ callings are given by God, through grace, and are sustained by the Holy Spirit. Christians do not have to fret about how to get them, how to keep them, or if they will lose them.  Who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began. - 2 Timothy 1:9 ESV Last Week:  Growing Up in Fear: How Legalistic Church Systems Harm Young People - EP72 Playlists: Examining Pentecostalism The Church Building Holiness Standards The “MOG” (Man of God) Podcast Playlist⁠ - Youtube Show Links: Bitter or Better - S01E13 David K Bernard - “seek a calling” Anthony Mangun - “there will be a definitive call” Aaron Bounds - “I feel it in the HG” Scott Sistrunk - “we need you!” Nathaniel Haney - “you have to try different things” Tyler Sullivan - “a pastor’s calling” Jack Cunningham -“cause you to lose your calling” #1 Jack Cunningham -“cause you to lose your calling” #2 Resources:B.I.T.E.
