Seriously, as an agnostic ex-evangelical, isn’t this one of the original heresies? Giving satan the power to overcome god? I think it’s all fiction but used to take it seriously.

On edit. After listening to it again it’s even worse than I thought. The dude is saying god gets his power from us coming together with him. And without humans agreeing with god his power is lessened.

I grew up Southern Baptist. He would have been run from any an church back in the 70’s. I may longer believe but I remember my theology. He suggested god is not all powerful unless we give him the power.

Which as an agnostic is actually true!

Good thing dude did not live during the inquisition. He would have burned. The heresy is dripping from him. As it is from all evangelicals.
