The Roman Catholic Whore

Dean Odle argues that Roman Catholic mysticism and ecumenical compromise have polluted parts of the Pentecostal and charismatic church. Beginning with revival history and the abuse scandal surrounding IHOP Kansas City founder Mike Bickle, he says spiritual movements must be judged by Scripture, doctrine, and moral fruit rather than reputation, prophecy, spectacle, or institutional success. He contrasts ministries centered on repentance and deliverance with practices he associates with Catholic contemplative mystics, repetitive prayer, visualization, and leaders who shield serious sin.

Spiritual Warfare #8 - Can a Christian Have Demons?

Dean Odle directly answers the question “Can a Christian have demons?” in the affirmative, distinguishing salvation from the surrender of particular areas of a believer’s soul or body. He argues from warnings addressed to Christians, Israel’s Old Testament experience, and Gospel deliverance accounts that covenant people can fellowship with demons, retain unclean strongholds, and need those bondages removed.

Spiritual Warfare #7 - Demons & Deliverance: Doorways

Dean Odle’s seventh Spiritual Warfare class catalogs ways people give the devil “place” and break the protective hedge described in Scripture. He urges deliverance ministers to ask when a bondage began, bring hidden sins into honest confession, and identify the specific doorway rather than treating every case with a generic formula.

Spiritual Warfare #6 - Demons & Deliverance

In Spiritual Warfare class six, Dean Odle argues that casting out demons was a normal and prominent part of Jesus’ ministry and was meant to continue through believers. He distinguishes different degrees of demonic influence, traces the origin of demons through his reading of Genesis 6, Jude, 2 Peter, and 1 Enoch, and uses Gospel deliverance accounts to explain how spirits gain and exercise control.

Spiritual Warfare #5 - Binding and Loosing

In “Spiritual Warfare #5 - Binding and Loosing,” Pastor Dean Odle presents a Scripture-centered message about Satanic opposition, demons and deliverance, faith. Drawing especially from Ephesians 6:12, Daniel 10, Ephesians 2, 2 Corinthians 3, the teaching emphasizes that Satan’s work is described through deception, accusation, temptation, and opposition to God’s purposes. Odle connects that foundation with the conviction that demonic influence must be answered through Christ’s authority and the freedom He provides.

Battle Ready

In “Battle Ready,” Pastor Nancy Odle teaches married couples to recognize that their spouse is not the enemy. Because husband and wife are one flesh, insults, suspicion, contempt, and scorekeeping wound the same union God joined together. Drawing from Matthew 19, 2 Corinthians 2, David and Michal, and practical marriage examples, she traces how spiritual suggestions can become resentment, hardness of heart, and destructive speech when they are not recognized and rejected.

Spiritual Warfare #2 - The Fall of Satan & His Angels

In “Spiritual Warfare #2 - The Fall of Satan & His Angels,” Pastor Dean Odle presents a Scripture-centered message about Satanic opposition, angelic messengers, eternal life and hope. Drawing especially from Isaiah 6, Genesis 6, Ezekiel 28, Isaiah 14, the teaching emphasizes that Satan’s work is described through deception, accusation, temptation, and opposition to God’s purposes. Odle connects that foundation with the conviction that angelic activity is examined within the biblical passage and its prophetic sequence.
