Kathryn Krick — Quotes Examined

"The Prophet prophesied to me that I was actually called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ, and I was called to reach the nations, and God was going to do many miracles through me."

Kathryn Krick claims apostolic authority based solely on a personal prophecy from her 'mentor.' The early church tested those who claimed to be apostles and found many false (Revelation 2:2). True apostles were eyewitnesses of the risen Christ or were affirmed by the established apostolic church — not self-appointed through private prophecy. Her claim to 'reach the nations' with 'many miracles' echoes the grandiose claims that Paul warned against: false apostles disguising themselves as apostles of Christ.

"Christians can have demons inside them. These demons need to be cast out through deliverance ministry."

Kathryn Krick's core teaching is that Spirit-filled Christians can be demon-possessed and need her deliverance ministry. This fails on multiple biblical and theological counts: (1) Temple theology — believers are temples of the Holy Spirit who does not share His dwelling with demons; (2) The 'Paul test' — Paul's 'thorn in the flesh' was 'a messenger of Satan' yet divinely permitted for sanctification; Krick would try to cast out what God allowed; (3) The Luke 13 distinction — the woman was 'bound' by Satan (external affliction) not demon-possessed (internal ownership). Her theatrical exorcisms — with extended demon interviews — contrast with Jesus who cast out demons with a single authoritative word.

"The devil is defeated... I have the victory. Let this be your battle song."

The song celebrates victory over the devil for over two minutes while never mentioning the cross or the resurrection — the place where that victory was actually won. Jesus himself corrected exactly this direction of joy in Luke 10:20: not that the spirits submit, but that your names are written in heaven. Scripture locates the victory entirely in Christ's death and resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:3-4, 57; Colossians 2:15), not in the believer's declaration. Moving the spotlight from the cross to the devil, and from Christ to 'I', is the kind of gradual displacement Jesus warned could deceive, if possible, even the elect.
