The claim that every person will finally be saved through Christ, with or without repentance and faith, contradicts Scripture’s conditions of salvation and its final distinction between eternal life and everlasting punishment.
Mantras, mind-emptying, guided visualization, spirit guides, and altered-state or astral techniques remain occult when given Christian names; biblical meditation thoughtfully fills the mind with God’s word and prayer with understanding.
The promise of a gospel-produced golden age before Christ returns conflicts with the apostasy, Antichrist, persecution, and tribulation Scripture places before His appearing.
The claim that post-death purification or temporal punishment remains for the justified, and can be reduced by indulgences or works of the living, conflicts with Christ’s once-for-all offering and Scripture’s order of death and judgment.

The claim that supernatural manifestations authenticate a minister or revival despite false doctrine, ungodly character, or corrupt fruit contradicts Scripture, which commands believers to test spirits, prophets, teaching, and lasting fruit.
The teaching that faith, giving, or positive confession guarantees wealth, health, comfort, or worldly success distorts biblical blessing and contradicts Christ’s call to contentment, self-denial, stewardship, and faithful endurance in suffering.
