20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 86) 01.10.2022 1:32:14
0:00 - Intro 1. 0:22 {Can We Resist Sin Without the Spirit?} How were the disciples able to follow Jesus and resist sin without the Spirit indwelling them? Is it possible to be a Christian without the Spirit? 2. 8:52 {Help with the Hiddenness of God} The hiddenness (and silence) of God is causing me doubts. Is there any advice or help you can offer (such as that God is silent now because revelatio...
He's obviously being a very horrible jerk. 28.09.2022 4:47
It can seem like weak advice to people to "look to Jesus" in their situation. But it only seems like weak advice to those who haven't yet grasped what it means to "look to Jesus." Look to Jesus. My website: https://BibleThinker.org
A situation where you should NOT give to your church. 24.09.2022 3:49
If you want some more info on why I think that 10% is NOT required giving from believers to their local churches, then watch THIS video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDZSno_kDZ8&t=0s My website: https://BibleThinker.org
I told you so 21.09.2022 3:30
Dr. Peter Gurry is a well respected scholar, Greek professor at Phoenix Seminary, and the author or coauthor of numerous articles and books, including the new "Myths and Mistakes in New Testament Textual Criticism," which is careful analysis of rhetoric and facts about how reliable the New Testament is. Here is the playlist where top scholar after top scholar review The Passion Translation and dem...
I hate to have to make this video. These are the lies two Christians are spreading about me. 17.09.2022 1:06:53
Some related links: Since both Tim Hurd and Doctrinal Watchdog seem to think that I am only now changing my views because of a response to their criticisms, here are a bunch of old clips of me having these views long before their videos ever came out. Click here for the MacArthur clip (what I really think about John MacArthur) This clip is about being "slain in the Spirit," how self-control is a f...
20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 85) 16.09.2022 1:33:21
Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference: 0:00 - Intro 1:00 {Is Loan Forgiveness Moral or Immoral?} Is it biblical for a Christian to file for student loan forgiveness? I attended college in my 20s and racked up 20k in student loans. The balance is currently at 16k. Biden's student loan forgiveness plan would really help, but would I be "taking the easy way out" when I'm able-bodied to pay off the...
My husband is addicted to porn. Should I divorce? 14.09.2022 7:13
This question is painful and difficult to answer. I really hope that me sharing my own thoughts and including several relevant verses from the Bible brings some help to those who need it. My website: https://BibleThinker.org
What do I do? My husband demands I don't go to church. 07.09.2022 2:58
This seems to me to be an area where rebellion against his request is required by faithfulness to God. My website: https://BibleThinker.org
Joel Osteen misuses the Bible 14 out of 15 times in one sermon. 06.09.2022 1:00:31
Since Joel Osteen removed my first video giving a full analysis of his sermon, I am uploading this highly edited one focused on his use of Scripture specifically. Why are you doing this, Mike? Because you can't think biblically if your teachers are misusing the Bible all the time. And pointing out when and how this happens is one of the best ways to help people learn not to do it themselves. I don...

Is your marriage “Christian”? 31.08.2022 1:33
It's very important that we recognize the incredible value of our marriages, whether they involve two Christians or not. You can honor Christ in your marriage whether your spouse does or not. My website: https://BibleThinker.org
"Can I marry a Muslim?" 29.08.2022 3:46
The most important issue here is that we first decide that we are willing to yield to whatever God says on the topic. Once we’ve decided to obey we will be more likely to actually listen to the answer without distorting it to fit our desires. Original Q&A video is HERE . My website: https://BibleThinker.org
When a Christian spouse can be treated as a non-believer (and why abuse is hard to define) 24.08.2022 7:21
This is a quick overview of several points that I explain in much more detail in my full teaching on everything the Bible says about divorce and remarriage. CLICK HERE for that 3 hour video with timestamps to help you navigate to exactly what you need. My website: https://BibleThinker.org
"I find it difficult to pray for the President even though the Bible tells me to.” 22.08.2022 3:15
Yes, we want to pray for their salvation! But I think that some people have a hard time praying for those who they see as causing large scale harm or problems for others when they mistakenly think we are supposed to ask God to prosper them in their efforts. Instead, we can pray for God to bring good out of their leadership and for other blessings which don't involve supporting ungodly commitments...
20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 83) 20.08.2022 1:55:12
My goal is to help you on the road to thinking biblically about everything. Here’s my video analyzing how Roman Catholic apologists abuse typology to teach Mariology. THIS is the entire “How to Find Jesus in the Old Testament” series. The most personally rewarding and thrilling series I’ve ever done. Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference: 0:54 {The Purpose of our Lives} As Christians, what is t...
I endorse husband-leaders, but there is a danger in it. 18.08.2022 4:17
It seems to me that a balanced, biblical view will affirm both the role of the husband as having higher authority in the household and his responsibility to utilize that authority for self-sacrificial service. Any teaching that doesn't emphasize both of these aspects seems to be unbiblical. CLICK HERE for my video on "How to Be a Husband" My website: https://BibleThinker.org
Pt. 9: Have We Misunderstood "Wives Submit"? - Women in Ministry Series 16.08.2022 3:09:00
Many (not all) egalitarians say that the fundamental way that marriage works, in relationship to authority, has been widely misunderstood by Christians throughout history. They say that wives are not called to submit in any greater fashion than their husbands are. They say that the real biblical teaching is for "mutual submission." Today we will cover the main passages that seem to teach an author...

"Abuser" at Home - "Respected Christian Man" at Church. 10.08.2022 7:38
I don't pretend my advice here is going to "fix" things for everyone suffering from an abusive spouse. I'm just trying to give the best answers I can, which I believe are biblical, to offer some measure of help. Please seek godly counsel from multiple people if you're in an abusive situation. It's ok for you to get help. My website: https://BibleThinker.org

Contradicting your husband in public. 03.08.2022 7:52
Sometimes you should and sometimes you shouldn't. It seems to me that, if we are honest with ourselves about our motives and paying careful attention to the situation, we will be able to tell easily if it's worth correcting our spouse in public. Generally, it's probably best to err on the side of not saying anything or waiting for a private moment to share.

Can the guy stay home while the woman works, according to the Bible? 27.07.2022 8:15
I surveyed the Scripture looking for an answer to this question, and it seems to me that even though there are more typical situations in biblical times, it's not the hard and fast rule that many think it is. In fact, there's quite of lot of support for a flexible attitude toward who "brings home the bacon." My website: https://BibleThinker.org
The Newspaper Prophet 26.07.2022 20:20
Consider carefully the timeline of this prophecy and the articles I share with you in this video. I think it reveals not only insight into James Goll, but into the low standards by which these large media-focused charismatic programs will lift up "prophets" for us all. May God bring true prophecy for us all to learn, grow, and be instructed from! But we all probably need to get better at spotting...
