Most Quoted Verse for Anti Semitism and Why it Doesn't Work.
Apr 24, 202400:09:26Tap to summarizeRacism and Christianity do not mix. I genuinely hope that those who try to support their antisemitism through quoting the Bible or claiming that it is Christian, will actually listen to this video and RESPOND to the specific Scripture verses that I brought up. If you ignore these verses then please don't pretend your views are Christian. The Gospel is for all people. My website: https://BibleThinker.org

Apr 19, 202401:30:14Tap to summarizeQuestion Time Stamps for Quick Reference:1. 1:32 {Discerning the Spirit’s Voice} Is the confirmation of the Holy Spirit distinguishable from an evil demon or psychological self-deception?2. 29:50 {Do We Give Off “Energy”?} Is “energy” in the esoteric form of the word biblical? I was recently told in a Christian forum that I was “giving off [blank] energy.” Is this biblical?3. 36:36 {Who will Sit on the Thrones?} In Matthew 19:28, Jesus states the 12 disciples will sit on 12/24 thrones in the regeneration. In Revelation 4:4, 24 elders are sitting on the thrones. Who are the other 12?4. 39:08 {Proof of Transubstantiation?} If Jesus identifies Himself as “the Word” and Ezekiel literally ate the Word of God (Ezekiel 3:1-3), is this a good case for Ezekiel being an analogy to the Catholic transubstantiation of the Eucharist being true?5. 47:28 {Tongues/Prophecy for Believers or Unbelievers?} Can you please explain 1 Corinthians 14:22-24? Verse 22 states that tongues are a sign for unbelievers, and prophecy is for believers. But vv. 23 and 24 then go on to, seemingly, describe the exact opposite. 6. 50:57 {God’s Name in Vain} What does it mean to not mention God's name in vain?7. 56:13 {The Spirit With, In & Upon Us} When David is anointed in 1 Samuel 16, the Bible says that “the Spirit of the Lord rushed upon David from that day forward.” How would this be similar or different from us receiving the Spirit now?8. 1:00:32 {Can a Pastor’s Wife be an Unbeliever?} Do the qualifications for pastors/elders in 1 Timothy 3:1-7 and Titus 1:5-9 disqualify a man who has an unbelieving wife?9. 1:09:56 {About OT Quotes in the NT} How should we understand inerrancy for New Testament passages that appear to quote the Old Testament, but no clear reference can be found? (e.g., James 4:5, Matthew 2:23).10. 1:14:49 {Grieving our Loved Ones when Not Sure of Salvation} My mom just passed away and I am unsure of her salvation. I know she prayed with the hospital's chaplains. My kids ask if they will see her in Heaven. How do I talk to them about this? ***HERE is the clip search feature.

Transcribe →10 Questions with Mike Winger (Episode 9)
Apr 5, 202401:09:10Tap to summarizeTaking YOUR questions from the live chat. Welcome to the new weekly stream! 10 questions every Friday at 1 p.m. Pacific Time. Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference: 0:00 - Intro1. 0:21 {Benny Hinn Update} What’s your update on the Benny Hinn situation? 2. 16:37 {Don’t Add or Take Away!} People often use Revelation 22:18-19 referring to the whole Bible. When I read it, I see it only referring to Revelation, since the New Testament wasn't formed yet. Could you provide some clarity?3. 21:18 {Different Methodologies for Missions} There's a lot of debate in missions right now about methodologies (i.e., church planting movements vs. more slow-paced approaches). How should we think through both sides biblically?4. 29:56 {Does Satan Have Power?} Is it a biblical idea that it's blasphemy to say that Satan has any power?5. 33:12 {Freedom from Addictions} How does one get set free from nicotine addiction when current medications do not work?6. 37:54 {Determinism vs. Luck} If we don’t believe that God determines/causes everything, do we believe in some form of luck? For example, when you hit all green lights on your way to work: “Man that was good luck!” Or when you stub your toe: “That was bad luck.” 7. 45:37 {Homosexuality vs. Other Sins} Why should we not ordain homosexuals in church although it’s a sin, when other people with less visible sins (hate, anger, etc.) are serving? What is the biblical view on this?8. 49:54 {Why was David’s Family Punished?} In 2 Samuel 12:10, why was the sword to never depart from David’s house if our sins aren’t supposed to carry over? Why was his family punished for his sin, and not just his son with Bathsheba but Ammon, etc.?9. 57:35 {The Father & Spirit in Heaven & Ezekiel’s Vision} Will we see both the Father and the Holy Spirit in Heaven? Also, can you explain Ezekiel’s vision of God and how it relates to Jesus and the Father?10. 1:03:12 {Does God still Speak through Dreams?} Does God still communicate through dreams? Is there any New Testament examples of God doing so, apart from Mary and Joseph?Bonus Prayer: 1:06:40 Could you pray for my youth leader? He collapsed one day and has been in the hospital ever since. He was supposed to be leading a youth camp I was going to. Asking for prayer for his healing. Thanks. I’m Mike Winger and my goal is to help people think biblically about everything.

Transcribe →The Victims of Benny Hinn: 30 Years of Spiritual Deception.

Transcribe →Will This Make You Believe in Jesus? The Isaiah 53 Prophecy.
Mar 29, 202400:11:57Tap to summarizeThis was literally written hundreds of years before Jesus was crucified. CLICK HERE for my long video on this, where I not only explain in more detail but I answer a bunch of objections and challenges to the idea that Jesus really did fulfill this prophecy. I highly recommend you check it out and consider this evidence for the truth of Jesus. My website: https://BibleThinker.org
Transcribe →Pro-gay theology: "Leviticus doesn't count."
Mar 25, 202400:04:11Tap to summarizeIf God judged nations for these things when those nations never had the Law of Moses, then we really can't set it aside because the account of it is found in the Old Testament. My website: https://BibleThinker.org
Transcribe →What if this is Satanism in its final form?
Mar 18, 202401:01:34Tap to summarizeWhy make this video? Because I believe that this sort of teaching is going on in a lot more churches than many of us realize. Having the video out there may reach someone and deliver them from this movement. In addition, it helps to examine extreme examples of the most progressive teaching out there so that viewers can develop the ability to start recognizing that sort of teaching when it appears in more subtle forms. I don't make this video primarily for Jermell or his church, even though I hope it helps them. I have a much wider audience and impact in mind. Please do not harass Common Good Church or Jernell. If you must reach out to them (I am not trying to instigate a ton of people doing so), you need to have the wisdom, fortitude, and grace to do so as an ambassador of truth. LINKS: You can see the full, original video HERE (though I would not be surprised if they take it down) This is the video defending the doctrine of Penal Substitutionary Atonement against slogans like what we hear from Jermell: Click Here Thank you to Woke Preacher Clips for exposing this kind of false teaching.

Transcribe →10 Questions with Mike Winger (Episode 8)
Mar 15, 202401:37:25Tap to summarizeWelcome to the new weekly stream! 10 questions every Friday at 1 p.m. Pacific Time. Today I'll be discussing Andrew Tate and his wild claims about the Bible. The other 9 questions will come from the chat. Here's a link to a video with 9 minutes of footage showing Tate's issues.WARNING, this video has language and some inapropriate images. It's not for pop-consumption; It's evidence that some people need in order to avoid Tate's scams. Click Here to view. What is the Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit? Click Here Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference:1. 0:08 {Andrew Tate vs. Scripture} Who is Andrew Tate, and do his views line up with the Bible?2. 35:07 {About Saul’s Motives} Was Saul's hostility toward the Jewish Christians based on his biblical beliefs, or was he really on a mission to achieve status considering his age prior to conversion and extreme actions?3. 41:25 {Can a Christian become Reprobate?} Is it possible for a Christian to become a reprobate? If so, can it still be undone? I don't know why, but God seems out of reach.4. 47:42 {Blaspheming the Spirit vs. the Son/Father} Why is the unforgivable sin described as blaspheming the Holy Spirit, as opposed to blaspheming the Son or the Father?5. 51:45 {Fulfilled or Unfilled Prophecy?} Has Zechariah 9:1-8 already been fulfilled? If not, is it possible that it is in the process of being fulfilled today?6. 56:08 {Is Jesus Presently “King”?} Is it right to call Jesus "king" since He has not yet set up His Millennial Kingdom on Earth (Revelation 20:4-6)?7. 1:01:48 {Reaching a Pagan Friend} I've got a Pagan friend. He believes that all the different gods exist, including the Abrahamic God, and that the Norse Pantheon is most worthy of worship. Any advice on reaching him?8. 1:07:58 {Marital Relations during Menstruation?} Is it a sin to have marital relations during the menstrual cycle? In Leviticus 18:19, 24-25, it indicates that this is an abomination. But Leviticus 15:24 puts it in the category of ritual uncleanness.9. 1:18:25 {Human Sacrifice in the OT?} I'm curious about how to handle 2 Samuel 21. This sounds very close to a form of human sacrifice to honor God.10. 1:27:45 {Do All Incorrect Secondary Views Warrant Repentance?} You said egalitarians need to repent (I agree). But do we apply that same response to other secondary issues such as Calvinism? That's higher on the list of secondary issues compared to egalitarianism vs. complementarianism.
