Jeremy Utley - The Half-Truths That Deceive Us Today
Summary
The speaker warns that deception will be rampant in the last days, often taking the form of 'half-truths' rather than outright lies. He cautions against accepting common definitions in modern Christianity for concepts like worship and discipleship. True worship, he argues, is presenting one's body as a living sacrifice, while true discipleship involves more than just Bible study; it requires a deeper commitment to Christ's will.

Jeremy Utley - Two Ways Satan Deceives Wholehearted Disciples
Jeremy Utley · Apr 26, 2017
The speaker discusses two primary ways Satan deceives wholehearted disciples, drawing parallels from Joshua's victories and the Gibeonites' deception. The first deception is the temptation to do as much good as possible, which can lead Christians to focus on their own extensive to-do lists rather than solely on what God has specifically prepared for them. True discipleship requires a posture of listening to Jesus's teaching rather than being overwhelmed by the world's perceived needs.
