Exposing the New Apostolic Reformation: Standing Firm on the True Gospel
Anchored in the Word with Dave Jenkins · November 13, 2025
In this episode of Anchored in the Word, Dave Jenkins exposes the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR)—a modern
movement claiming God is restoring apostles and prophets to govern the Church. Dave defines what the NAR teaches,
why it’s dangerous, and how Christians can stand firm on the sufficiency of God’s Word. This episode offers a clear,
biblical response that points believers back to Christ and His finished work.

🎥 Video
Show Summary
What Is the NAR? A loosely organized movement emphasizing modern apostles and prophets who claim authority over churches and regions.
What It Teaches: Ongoing revelation, dominionism (Seven Mountain Mandate), signs and wonders, and “spiritual warfare” over territories.
Why It’s Dangerous:
Undermines the sufficiency of Scripture (2 Timothy 3:16–17; Hebrews 1:1–2).
Confuses apostolic authority (Ephesians 2:20).
Promotes a worldly kingdom vision instead of gospel mission (John 18:36).
Encourages false prophecy and spiritual abuse (Deuteronomy 18:22; Matthew 24:24).
Distracts from the true gospel of Christ crucified (1 Corinthians 15:1–4).
Biblical Response: Test everything by Scripture (Acts 17:11; 1 Thessalonians 5:21). Reject self-proclaimed apostles, cling to the ordinary means of grace, and hold fast to the true Head of the Church—Jesus Christ.
“Christ is enough. His Word is enough.” — Dave Jenkins

Episode Outline
Introduction
Many of us own Bibles, yet do we know what is in them and live it out? Hosea 4:6 warns that
God’s people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Neglecting Scripture leaves us open to
deception, discouragement, and shallow faith.
1. Defining Biblical Illiteracy
It is not the absence of a Bible, it is the absence of knowing, understanding, and applying it.
2 Timothy 3:16–17 teaches that all Scripture is God breathed and equips us for every good work.
2. The Dangers of Biblical Illiteracy
Deception: Without truth we are tossed by every wind of doctrine (Ephesians 4:14).
Weak Discipleship: Faith reduces to feelings and trends.
Poor Witness: A church that does not know Scripture loses its salt and light.
Judges 2:10 shows how a generation can rise that does not know the Lord.
3. How We Can Avoid It
Read Scripture regularly, whole books and chapters for the big picture.
Study wisely, use tools but start with the text.
Memorize and meditate, let the word of Christ dwell richly (Colossians 3:16).
Obey what you read, be doers not hearers only (James 1:22).
Stay rooted in a sound local church under faithful preaching and community.
Application and Call to Action
Shape your worldview from Scripture rather than social media or cultural voices. Start small.
Read a chapter a day in the Gospel of John, pray, take notes, and ask questions.
Closing
Biblical illiteracy is dangerous but not inevitable. God’s Word is a lamp to our feet and a
light to our path (Psalm 119:105). Let us know the Bible, love it, and live it out for the
glory of Christ and the good of His church.
