John and John McKinnon expose how fake supernatural experiences, staged healings, miracle props, and unverifiable signs became "bait on the hook" for high-control religious movements. In this episode, they examine William Branham, John Alexander Dowie, Jim Jones, healing-revival spectacle, gold dust, oil Bibles, staged wheelchair healings, and other claims used to build loyalty around revivalists instead of Jesus. The discussion follows the rise of signs-and-wonders culture from early healing movements into modern charismatic and N.A.R. patterns, showing how spectacle can replace Scripture, critical thinking, and the gospel itself. ______________________Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR:Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962 Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K ______________________- Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham - Visit the website: https://william-branham.org
