Many deliverance ministers teach that “soul ties” create demonic bonds between people that must be broken — but is that really in the Bible? In this video, we show how this false doctrine twists Scripture and distracts from the true freedom believers have in Christ. Join us as we debunk soul ties with Scripture, discernment, and a little humor along the way.

Rock-concert worship bands, Broadway-style productions, cringeworthy sermon series, and pastors dressed like fashionistas—welcome to today’s megachurches. Instead of proclaiming Christ and Him crucified, these churches entertain the masses with gimmicks and spectacles. The result? Shallow distractions that draw crowds but leave souls starving for the Gospel.

In this first episode of the Lightbulb Ministries Podcast, Richard Moore, Rick Becker, and Daniel Long take aim at the popular but unbiblical idea that God wakes you up at 3:00 a.m. to give you fresh revelations, prophetic downloads, or mystical visions. We’ll expose the roots of this teaching, compare it with Scripture, and show why it’s more superstition than sound doctrine.

Anointing talk runs rampant in Charismatic circles. But is it biblical? In this episode, we compare what some of the most popular Charismatic voices say about “the anointing” with what the Bible actually teaches. Is the anointing something you chase? Can you lose it? Is it transferable? Or is the truth far more grounded—and far more comforting—for those who are in Christ?

Is David Diga Hernandez really teaching biblical Christianity—or is he just packaging the same old Word of Faith heresies in a more appealing, emotionally restrained format? In this video, we examine Hernandez’s background, theology, and public teachings to reveal a troubling alignment with the core doctrines of the Word of Faith movement.

In this episode, we're joined by Steve Kozar of The Messed Up Church as we trace the roots of this modern-day monster, exposing how emotionalism, revivalism, and entertainment have slowly replaced biblical preaching and faithful pastoral care.

According to John Bevere, God speaks to him regularly—and he makes sure his audience knows it. But what’s even more concerning is his claim that God commands him to write certain books. If that’s true, we have to ask: are these just books… or new revelation? In this video, we’ll show you the evidence—and let you decide if John Bevere is simply promoting his brand, or elevating his words to the level of Scripture.

They claim that God personally told them to write their books—and in some cases, elevate their teachings alongside the authority of Scripture. In this episode, we're joined by Rick Becker from Famine in the Land as we take a closer look at the Bevere empire. Do their teachings align with the Word of God, or are ...

The self-proclaimed prophets are back — rambling, blathering, and claiming they know exactly where Christ wants to take His Church in 2025. In this video, we take a serious look at two recent prophetic events: the 2025 Prophetic Summit and the Prophetic Council at NRB. These so-called "words from the Lord" are filled with emotional hype, vague impressions, and spiritual jargon — but do they align with Scripture?

Spoiler ALERT: They ...
