Priscilla Shirer is a famous Christian author, and far too many people (primarily women) buy her books and believe her nonsense. She equates the Bible with hand-me-down clothes and insists that God give you something fresh and new. And even if you get it wrong, you should keep claiming to speak for God. You’d have to be biblically ignorant not to immediately dismiss her false teachings. She’s a clever wolf, actively teaching you to ignore the Bible and go with your own feelings of what God is supposedly telling you directly. That won’t turn out well.
Years ago, we were members of a generally solid Bible-believing Baptist church. However, the women’s group studied one of Shirer’s books that claimed to teach you how to hear from God. That’s nonsensical on its face, of course, as if God isn’t speaking to you, there is nothing to hear, and if God is speaking to you, then you couldn’t miss it if you tried. She turned the story of Samuel on its head, claiming that Samuel needed to learn how to hear from God. Sadly, the pastors were reluctant to get involved and correct the women.
Shirer has made a career out of her false teaching. Via Priscilla Shirer Attacks the Bible as ‘Hand-me-down Revelation’:
In the clip, she is saying that having a preacher teach the scripture is insufficient and not personalized enough, that it gets stale, old, and is a mark of immaturity to not seek more. In contrast, it is a sign of growth and wisdom to want more than that, and so seek some “revelation” that is new, fresh, and personalized just for you.
Speaking within the context of receiving clothing hand-me-downs, Shirer creates the analogy by recounting how one year as a young girl she was not excited to get hand-me-downs, because the clothes “had not been specifically chosen for me.”“And I’ve been okay with hand-me-downs with secondhand clothes all of these years, but all of a sudden I want of my own stuff. I wanted something to come with my name on it that had specifically been chosen for me. There ought to come a time in your relationship with the Lord, when hand-me-down revelation just doesn’t do it for you anymore.
There ought to come a little bit of disconcerting, a little bit of maturity in your walk with God where you become a little bit unsettled to only be spoon-fed the Word of God from someone else to you.
Now, we thank God for our pastors and our teachers and our leaders that help us to rightly divide the word of truth *but* there ought to come a time in your life where you’ve decided, “You know what? I want fresh revelation with my name on it that has come straight from God’s Spirit for my life.”
As with most false teachers, Shirer doesn’t want you to read the Bible. Why? Because you might realize how anti-biblical her teachings are! The more you read the Bible, the more you’ll realize how awful she is.
Pray for discernment in the church, that people would read the Bible more, and that they would never blindly trust Christian bookstores.
Here’s my lesson on decision-making and the will of God, and hearing from God.

How would you feel if someone, who didn’t know you, judged you based off of what some random person, who doesn’t personally know you either, told them? This author says she doesn’t want you reading the Bible? I’m listening to her right now and she’s talking about how important God’s Word is, how you meet with the Lord through the scriptures, and His Word will transform your life. So I can disregard this article because I already see it’s not accurate. Always check into these speakers, that’s wisdom, yes! But you can’t just run with what everyone says without checking for yourself. You haven’t heard of her? Check her out for yourself. I’ve never heard her go errant to scripture. 😀 And I don’t listen to TV preachers besides the late Charles Stanley.

Thank you for calling her out for what she is. These popular women teachers who teach lies and nonsense need to be exposed as frauds. Sadly, most Christian women don’t seem capable of identifying truth from lies. If it makes them feel good, they accept it. But, having attended many different churches in several different states over the past 23 years, it isn’t surprising that American women aren’t equipped to know truth from lies. Sunday morning orgasm services in which we raise our hands and sing emotional songs about our feelings and make groaning noises, followed by useless, watered-down, entertainment-oriented sermons, don’t equip people to think critically about their worldview. In fact, most church services I’ve been to seem to unintentionally encourage stupidity, passivity, and an inability to think rationally. I’m thankful for bloggers like you who fill the gap left by our pathetic churches.

Look, I’ve been wrong on theological issues (I went from Arminian to Reformed, for example), but I’m CORRECTABLE. If someone shows you hard evidence, in her own words and in context, that she says the Bible is like hand-me-down clothes, then you should reconsider your view. Yet all her supporters who come here do nothing but make personal attacks on me. They can never defend what she has said. That should bother them!

Priscilla Shirer is bringing in “New Beginnings” the occultic agenda to bring in the Great Lord, the Anti Christ. In these last days, Satan wants the world to hear HIS voice, and not Gods voice thru the Scriptures. Her “fresh” word comes straight from New Age matriarch Alice Bailey who stressed the Church needs a ‘fresh’ orientation…. (Externalization of the Hierarchy). Bailey was promoting this fresh direction would lead the masses to accept their divinity. (Enter Joyce Meyer “We are little gods.”)
Shirer is typical of the false teachers today who are declaring themselves “the Davids” (spirit people) as opposed to the “Sauls” (written word people). This war in the Church between the Davids and Sauls comes DIRECTLY from the “Wars of David” prophesied by 16th century mystic Jane Lead. And, false teachers Rick Joyner and Mike Bickle of IHOP and Bethel promote…guess what… “Davidic Wars!” So, basically, there is a warring of the false Rhema in the Church against the true Logos. And, don’t leave out false teacher Rick Warren who wants us to ‘read the King James in NEW FRESH ways.” Purpose Driven Life. And sadly Anne Graham Lotz wants us, when in distress, to ask God for a FRESH vision so we can see His glory. NO, Jesus says, “Search the Scriptures for they testify of ME!” John 5 “And in the last days men will no longer endure sound doctrine but embrace doctrines of demons.” I and II Timothy 4

See how that works? 🙂 On her rules, the burden of proof is now on you to prove me wrong, rather than me proving I’m right. Of course, God did tell me that — in his infallible word!

Shirer took an analogy, with hand me down clothes( which people can relate to) and made it personal in regards to our walk with God. I rely on the Holy Spirit to illuminate God’s word and to give me discernment when I read and study it. I don’t know about you, but God speaks to me when I read His Word and it’s that revelation ( Him speaking) Shirer is alluding to in her analogy. Saying we should want to hear something from God that came straight from Him and His word (personal devotions/ study) and not from someone else (preachers/teachers).

We must discern through the Word of God what is true and what is deception. We must also trust the Word of God over man because even the elect will be deceive.

She teaches to empty your mind by chanting words like Abba as a praying technique. Our Lord told us not to do as the heathen or unbelievers in vain repetition in prayer but pray with a sound mind to the Lord God, Almighty. Our Father, which Art in heaven….. Her contemporaries John Piper, Beth Moore, and Francis Chan in their attendance at a Catholic Leticio Divinia; all performed contemplative praying in front of an audience of thousands. Priscilla is always on stage with her Word of Faith contemporary, Joyce Myers’s and Joel Osteen’s wife. You may ask what is wrong with their gatherings (birds of a feather flock together). Joey and Joel’s wife teach the metaphysical counterfeit and blasphemous doctrine of the Word of Faith. Her father, Tony, teaches ecumenism which is in opposition of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Both made a living as well-paid hirelings who the world loves. Are they better than the Master? (Who the world hated). No! Agape.
