Is he a trip or what? He has a lot of knowledge about the enemy and the occult because he has been there. God can take what was evil and use it for good

Ya he might not be a shining example, but he knows what he's talking about... Makes complete sense and to me when things go together so well it's hard to dispute... Hopefully his message maintains and doesn't get imaginative and bloated...

I'm surprised nobody has tried to debunk what this person is saying! I told you it was good information, was I wrong? I think everyone should listen to this once or twice if not 50 times like I have...
No differences (other than word choice) were found. No deleted passages, no re-numbering of the verses because of omissions.

I find at the very beginning three issues of disagreement:
A ) His understanding of the meaning of the phrase - "sword of the spirit"
It appears to be shallow and lacking a fuller vision of its intent.
B ) His usage of the word - " Church"
It implies that the Christian religion is the Church of God which is also shallow and lacking
C ) His understanding of religion vs reality
What I mean is, both God and Satan exist in reality they are not philosophical constructs, they effect reality in specific ways which the teaching lacked those specifics keeping the listener from recognizing the workings of Satan or God in their own individual lives where any real impact for the better could be made.
religion removes the individual from life and living and places them in a alien environment.
Improving that environment is nice, but it has no effect in the day to day life of a person, only on their religious activities which are meaningless in reality to God.
Religious practices, that is rights and rituals and such, are of more use to Satan than God.
The Devil's desire is that he would have God completely removed from our daily activities and placed only in a religious context, in order to deny the individual a vital working relationship with God, which is the desire of God, for the greatest benefit and blessing of the individual.
