Allegations are mounting against pastor Jeremiah Johnson. Multiple people are coming forward claiming he presented prophetic insights from others as his own, effectively plagiarizing their words.
What does it actually mean to plagiarize a prophetic word? And why is this such a grievous sin in God's eyes?
Scripture speaks directly to this. God said through the prophet Jeremiah: "I am against the prophets … who steal My words from one another" (Jeremiah 23:30).
This episode explores a reckoning that continues to unfold in the Charismatic church. It is not just about one pastor. It is about a culture where social media platforms have enabled the copying of prophetic words without credit, where ad revenue can feed the problem, and where the line between authentic revelation and plagiarism has become dangerously blurred.
Scripture is clear. The gift of prophecy is available to all, and we are encouraged to pursue it. But the words must pass the biblical test of authenticity and accuracy. We should never accept copied words or second-hand revelations.
This is an honest, hard conversation about integrity, honor, and the fear of God.

Your story could be the encouragement another believer has been praying for.

She stood at Speakers' Corner in London, the most famous place in the world for free speech. She wanted to debate, to discuss, to tell people about Jesus Christ. Then a man in a black Islamic robe walked up and stabbed her multiple times in the throat and body.

Hatun Tash, an ex-Muslim turned Christian preacher, survived. She is now speaking out for the first time.

"I am upset and disturbed by what has happened to me," she said. "Watching the video, the intention is clearly to kill me. I can't believe this has happened in broad daylight at Speakers' Corner. You do not expect such things to happen in Great Britain."

The attacker fled. Police have not made an arrest. Counter-terrorism is now investigating.

This is not the first time Hatun has been attacked. She has been slapped, punched, knocked to the ground, and surrounded by threatening mobs. Police have repeatedly failed to protect her. Instead, she has been arrested, detained overnight, and humiliated.

This episode explores the rising threat to free speech, the danger faced by Christians who critique Islam, and one woman's courage to keep speaking even after being stabbed.

Your story could be the encouragement another believer has been praying for.

He was the only Christian in Pakistan's federal cabinet. He spoke out against the country's strict blasphemy laws. He defended Asia Bibi, a Christian woman sentenced to death. He knew he was being hunted. He recorded a video before his death.

"I believe in Jesus Christ who has given his own life for us, and I am ready to die for a cause," Shahbaz Bhatti said. "I'm living for my community… and I will die to defend their rights."

On March 2, 2011, he was gunned down by members of the Taliban while driving in Islamabad.

Ten years later, world leaders, religious figures, and human rights advocates gathered online to remember him. The Archbishop of Canterbury remembered him with "profound gratitude." A U.S. senator called him "one of the most courageous men I have ever known." The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom said his killers have never been prosecuted.

Asia Bibi, now living in Canada, said: "When I remember him I start grieving deeply. I never can forget the martyrdom of Shahbaz Bhatti. Even today I grieve for him and my heart cries and my eyes weep for him."

This episode explores the life, death, and enduring legacy of a modern-day martyr. A man who could have stayed silent. A man who chose to speak. A man who now awaits possible beatification in the Catholic Church.
