No-Co Radio host Pastor Mike Abendroth discusses the concept of "party spirits," or the tendency for Christians to believe that God only works within their specific theological group. He recounts a story from Luke 9:49, where John tells Jesus they tried to stop someone from casting out demons because "he does not follow with us". Mike uses this as a starting point to argue that Christians should rejoice when Christ is proclaimed, even by those with different theological views, such as those from Calvary Chapel or Arminian denominations. He admits that while he holds strong theological convictions—subscribing to the London Baptist Confession of 1689 and believing in the five points of Calvinism, for example—he believes it's important to show charity and kindness to other Christians.
