“For we are not, like so many, peddlers of God's word, but as men of sincerity, as commissioned by God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.” (2 Corinthians 2:17, ESV)
It's funny that the YouTube channel is called "Learn to Discern", who exposes false teachers and ministries, because I have "learn"ed "to discern"...that Learn To Discern is also a false ministry, for the same reason that hordes of others are false ministries, because they ask for money for their ministry. Here's LtD's pitch:
Some may say, "But doesn't Galatians 6:6 and elsewhere teach that we are to share with our teachers?" Yes. However, they must be in the Truth, and being in the Truth, they must not peddle the Word of God for profit. Thus, we are not to support them (I Timothy 5:22).
Also, I've found another YouTube channel, URFRIENDLYHOOD that puts some of his videos behind a "Members Only" paywall.
Bonus exposure: Nowhere in Scripture does it teach that Mary was a perpetual virgin. I debated that with Catholic YouTube channel "TruthHasSpoken". So far, he shot back saying that my adherence to canon (even though I accept that there could be more Scripture) is a tradition of men. I currently have no response to that, since I don't yet know how to respond to that. Maybe I shouldn't, since I heard in Scripture that we are to drop the matter in case of contentions (not sure of the exact verse yet).
Here's some more space in case I find more YouTube channels I find that are heretically peddling the Word of God for profit. Please comment with more false ministries of this type to warn others. Thanks!
