1. An alarming amount of people think that everything “bad” is from Satan and everything “good” is from God

We obviously know this to be not true because for starters, Satan is not omnipresent so the odds that Satan is behind all your doubt, struggles, and hardship are very low. Secondly, God permits “bad” things to happen for many reasons, including your personal growth and his glory. It is dangerous to attribute everything bad to Satan and everything good to God because you have no idea how God is using this bad experience to shape you AND you don’t know how this perceived good thing may actually be harming your relationship with Jesus.

2. Women focus on the love of God while men focus on the “abrasiveness” (for lack of a better term) of God while completely ignoring the other

Ive noticed women love to make videos about how God has a plan for your life and everything will be ok and yadda yadda. Men on the other hand love to make videos about how God didnt make you to be weak and that he demands we live a life of excellence and yadda yadda. Both of which are misleading because they arent the whole picture. God does have a plan for your life, but he does not promise you prosperity. God commands us to be strong and courageous, but his power is made perfect in weakness. It is not shameful to lament to God.

3. People are practicing new age spiritualism disguised as Christianity

Ive seen too many videos of people saying “God wants what we want” or “Your goals and desires are there because God put them there” or the classic “name it and claim it” prosperity gospel. This is mostly coming from the younger demographic. God shouldn’t want what we want, we should want what God wants. Your goals and desires ultimately have no meaning in this life because we store our treasures in heaven and not on earth. Our young people are being led astray by false teachings and it must be called out.

4. The bad outweighs the good, but the good is REALLY good

For the amount of misleading and false theology I’ve seen, I’ve seen a small amount of very good content that has actually helped me think different about how I approach my faith and my walk with God. Unfortunately those are very few and far between. If you’re going to like Christian content on TikTok, your gift of discernment will be strongly tested.
