    As someone who became a “Christian influencer” myself , this was a great reminder to stay accountable, grounded, and know that everything is for the glory of God and his scriptures.

    Timely and poignant message. So important for us to help young children and young adults understand the psychological manipulation of marketing in social media.

    Great list! If it were just one person longer: One man who uses X/Twitter in an exceptional and masterful way for the glory of God is Dustin Benge.

    Allan Parr is probably one of these that you mention along with John Kirby but I find both of them solid doctrinally and sound in theology- they’ve both been very helpful but they haven’t been a substitute for church for me either. I also follow John MacArthur/Steve Lawson/Wretched radio/Ray Comfort- these men have greatly shaped my Christian walk.

    You just named 4 of my TOP favorite teachers:
    Dr. Voddie Baucham
    Paul Washer,
    John MacArthur
    Justin Peters
    What channel can we watch their live sermons, not just voice clips?

      You are welcome!
      Todd Friel -wretched radio
      He has Jimmy Hicks who works with him, who does the news, etc. He also works with Dr. Greg Gifford who had a "Transformed" podcast. It is based on Biblical Counseling. It has been really helpful for me as well.

    Thank you for adding all the numbers behind the names. It just goes to show that the numbers of people following an "influencer" does not prove whether they are sound or not. It's more likely that the most sound will have a fraction of the amount of followers of the most popular. Either way, the numbers are not the real metric, but rather holding up their teachings to the teachings of Scripture.

    is using the phrase "impressive oratory quips" an attempt to use an impressive oratory quip?

    Great discussion and list. James Tour, John Lennox, Frank Turek, William L. Craig, Discovery Science Network, are all also, I believe, very good at apologetic studies and confirming the truth of the Bible through Sciences and Archeology. BezelT3 also has some really good discernment discussions. Sean McDowell, Gavin Ortlund, Todd Friel and Becket Cook I believe are also very good.

      Your list seems to have many Armenian and old earth teachers.......G3 is a great place to learning these teachings do not line up with scripture.

      ​@@mktay2067 . RUclips is not where I come to get my final conclusions on my beliefs about GOD and/or the Bible. We do attend a Reformed Church that just had Voddie as a guest speaker and is also good friends with our pastors family. I have also attended Armenian churches and seen the other side as well. I feel I am in good hands and have good shepherds right now. Believing in an old or young earth is not going to make me ignore all the great info these people have on many other Bible subjects. I just saw a great video yesterday on Discovery Network where they are talking about the hard Archaeological evidence for the Exodus. This is vital info that enforces Christians beliefs and helps us stand up for our faith. I do appreciate you looking out though. The attached link also has a really insightful discussion on young and old earth beliefs and the Bible I thought was really insightful. ruclips.net/video/rlj201AfbCo/видео.html

    I would add Chad O. Jackson.
    You mentioned Jenna Ellis, I’m trying to learn what happened with her. I’m not a huge advocate for most anyone, on X, so I don’t follow many stories. So I’m sincerely trying to learn what transpired that has caused her online presence to change/come under fire.

    My general rules of practice towards Christian social media influencers are:
    1) Do you believe in the Gospel and in the Lord Jesus
    2) Are your teachings and conversations in line with God’s Word and seek to edify the church.

    Harmful if they are becoming teachers....The warning warnings in scripture are clear. James 3:1
