Such a good word! This makes me think of the current false teachings of Word of Faith, Kingdom Now theology, and the New Apostolic Reformation (which isn’t really “new.”) Our churches sing their songs, which supports and empowers them financially. This also encourages these movements and introduces their new “revealed” doctrines to our congregations, which John speaks against in verses 10-11. It makes me wonder if John would have encouraged these early churches to sing “Gnostic songs,” even if they appeared “safe.”
