JOEL RICHARDSON: METATRON HERESY

(9) THE BOOK OF REVELATION // Session 20: The Sign of the Coming of the Son of Man - YouTube

Various false teachings are being fed insidiously to the body of Christ by Joel Richardson and Dalton Thomas (Frontier Alliance International). These false teachings primarily concern the alleged "Islamic Antichrist" which I have debunked in previous posts. In the above video Richardson refers to the pre-incarnate appearances of Jesus Christ as the Metatron. (26:00 mark). This blasphemous teaching was picked up by a few people in the comments. Richardson re-affirms this heresy below. 





The Metatron is described as an angelic being in the Babylonian Talmud, in various other mystical writings and in the apocryphal books of Enoch. In these writings, it is said that after Enoch's translation (Genesis 5:24), that he was transformed into the angel Metatron. The Greek Meta+Tron translates Beyond+Matrix. The Metatron is referred to as "Lesser YHVH" in a version of the Talmud by the Karite scholar Kirkisani. Jewish myths are condemned in the New Testament - as such Christians should completely avoid such teachings. (Titus 1:14).

Compelling Truth: "Metatron is at best a legend, and at worst, a deception—there is no reason to believe he exists. The Bible never mentions him, and the descriptions of Metatron in the mystical writings do not agree with the biblical descriptions of angels. The Bible tells us not to pursue 'godless myths and old wives' tales' but to instead train ourselves in godliness (1 Timothy 4:7 NIV). Furthermore, the worship of angels is associated with asceticism and false visions, and is opposed to the worship of Christ (Colossians 2:18-19)." {1}

I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. (Romans 16:17).

  1. James Jacob Prasch teaches the same blasphemy as well teaching Midrash- all of which should be avoided. I implore anyone following either men to run from them, and don't look back lest it cause you to stumble in your faith.

  2. A number of us came against Prasch for various false teachings which he has never renounced!
    Thank you for your comment Roselamb.
    God bless.

  3. Joel and Jacob should team up and form a new cult. You make some sound points Treena. Why people try to bw controversial ans "cutting edge" with blasphemous nonsense like this is beyond me. I guess the plain truth of scripture is not enough for them.
    Yet many famous ones have equated Christ with thw archangel Michael. Ignoring the clear statement in Hebrews that He is far superior to angels, including fictitious ones like Metatron, which sounds like a character from a Transformers movie! My best to you as we celebrate the victory of Our Saviour over death, Hell and the grave, Mike

  4. In most cases it seems to be all about the money and making a name for themselves. I wouldn't like to be in their shoes when they have to give an answer!
    Thank you for your comment Mike.
    God bless.

  5. Other alarm 🔔 was where in the Mid East Beast he refers to the spread of the glorious gospel through Europe to that of an infectious disease! “ Christianity eventually infected and conquered the Roman Empire with its message.”

    An infection is never associated with anything good but something that is harmful to one’s well being.

    Define Infection
    a condition in which bacteria or viruses that cause disease have entered the body:

    By their fruits you shall know them.

    Joel will also tell you he endures all things for Muslims whereas the Apostle Paul says he endured all things for the elect.
