The Spirit Behind Candace Owens' Claims — A Pastor's Response | Truth Over Trend with Matthew Maher

December 11, 2025

7:37

In this video, Pastor Matthew Maher addresses the growing confusion surrounding Candace Owens’ recent statements — especially her remarks about Erika Kirk and the wave of suspicion spreading through parts of the Church. This is not about personalities. It is about discernment, truth, and the spiritual forces influencing believers in this moment. Scripture commands Christians to “test the spirits” (1 John 4:1). When accusation replaces evidence, when division replaces unity, and when confusion replaces clarity, the Bible tells us exactly what is happening — and who is behind it (James 3:16). Pastor Maher offers a biblical and pastoral warning: what many are calling “discernment” is actually deception masquerading as wisdom. His message calls the Church to wake up, return to spiritual sobriety, and anchor themselves in God’s Word — not in speculation, suspicion, or slander disguised as “questions.” This is not an attack on a person. It is a protection of the Church. May the Spirit of truth guide and guard God’s people in this hour.
