Humanism sounds good, but it subtly replaces the Gospel with self-help and affirmation.

In this episode, we uncover how humanism has crept into the Church, why it’s dangerous to true faith, and how to stay rooted in holiness, repentance, and full surrender to Christ.

Here’s the truth: Humanism puts man at the center. The Gospel puts Christ at the center.

In this episode of the Scratch Everything Podcast, we breakdown:

🔥 What humanism is and how it has crept into modern preaching.

🔥 Why “feel-good” faith is dangerous when it removes repentance, holiness, and surrender.

🔥 How Jesus’ teachings on justice and love differ radically from humanist self-help.

🔥 Why a church rooted in humanism becomes powerless, performance-driven, and spiritually empty.

💡 Key Takeaways:

Humanism exalts self over surrender. (John 15 : 5, Luke 9 : 23)

Humanism replaces the Gospel with self-help motivation (2 Timothy 4 : 3).

Humanism makes God a consultant, not Lord.

Humanism dismantles reverence and conviction (Proverbs 1 : 7).

Humanism leads to burnout, pride, and confusion in the Body of Christ.

Jesus never called us to create a “utopia” in a fallen world. He called us to be a city on a hill (Matthew 5 : 14)—a light that points people to a perfect Savior and eternal life.

Marvel heroes live double lives—but in the Kingdom, you can’t be both carnal and crucified. In this episode, we dive into why faith requires full surrender, not divided loyalty.

Learn how to drop the Marvel mask, walk in true transformation, and become the “city on a hill” God called you to be (Matthew 5:14).

🔥 What you’ll learn in this episode:

-Why living a double life (Marvel-style) leads to spiritual instability (James 1:8).

-The difference between being flawed and being rebellious.

-Why you can’t feed the flesh and expect to walk in the Spirit (Romans 8:6–7).

-The dangers of excusing sin with “They weren’t perfect, so I don’t have to change.”

-How to move from carnal to crucified through true repentance, surrender, and transformation.
