John and Chino expose the dangerous theology of Hobart Freeman, tracing his teachings back to William Branham’s pattern of secrecy and manipulation. They discuss Freeman’s claims of a “12-word revelation,” his insistence that only one man held the true end-time faith message, and the psychological grip these ideas held over followers. The conversation connects the dots between Branham’s “three high words,” Freeman’s mysterious visions, and the modern culture of prophetic elitism that still echoes in the New Apostolic Reformation. This episode invites listeners to reconsider how claims of hidden revelation and exclusive authority distort the humility and servant leadership modeled by Christ.
