20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 22) 12.02.2021 1:11:16
0:00 - Introduction 1. 2:11 If Revelation was written after 70AD, why wouldn't John say anything about the destruction of Jerusalem? Wouldn't he write about a prophecy of Jesus that came true? Pretty big event to ignore. 2. 6:09 Do we have free will? If not, how does that affect God's sovereignty? If yes, how can we be punished for sins when we had no other option? 3. 13:11 As a conservative Chris...
Jesus Said THIS Was The Sign to Watch For.. But What Does it Mean?: The Mark Series pt 53 (13:14-23) 08.02.2021 1:09:42
I'm surveying different interpretations of "the abomination of desolation" and comparing them to the Scripture to see if they fit.

20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 21) 05.02.2021 1:14:17
Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference: 0:00 Introduction 1. 0:53 Recently, I've seen several of your videos dealing with The Passion Translation, and the criticism seems very much on point. Clearly, Brian Simmons is a bit of a nut and I think you'd agree that religions can attract those types of people. So, why would you assume Paul, or the authors of Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John weren't also n...
What's Wrong With "Progressive" Christianity 05.02.2021 14:23
How could it end any other way. Step one: Take Scripture out of context. Step two: Absolutely demonize those who disagree, with highly emotional and extremely judgmental language. Step three: Summarize your unbiblical views with utter hypocrisy and plank-eyed judgment toward anyone who dares to hold to a biblical Christianity. Step four: Conclude that your views, which Jesus most certainly would n...
Have We Made Sin Too Big of a Deal? 04.02.2021 3:59
It's hard to find a group of so many words directly from the Bible being used to mean the exact opposite of what the Bible means. 0:00 intro 0:18 to SKIP intro This clip is from a recent interview I did on Alisa Childers' channel.

I Changed My Mind About The Bible and Alcohol 03.02.2021 2:33
I actually had a hard time coming around on this topic but, in the end, the Bible constrained me to change my view on alcohol. The difference between me and the progressives we are responding to is that my mind was changed by the Bible and I get the impression that they would believe whatever they want whether the Bible said it or not. 0:00 intro 0:18 to SKIP intro This clip is from a recent inter...
Christians Have Probably Overreacted to Smoking. 02.02.2021 3:56

They Tell Me God Didn't Want Jesus' Sacrifice. Here's My Response. 01.02.2021 4:41
If you are around progressive thinkers and teachers much you will probably have heard them say, "God didn't demand a sacrifice, we did!" The problem with this quotable and heartwarming phrase is that it's terribly unbiblical and would have been rejected by Jesus and all the apostles. As it should be by us. 0:00 intro 0:18 to SKIP intro This clip is from a recent interview I did on Alisa Childers'...

Are Different Religions Just Ways of Pronouncing God's Name? 31.01.2021 4:36
It starts to feel like they aren't making any effort at all to understand biblical Christianity. Instead there are just a series of shallow misrepresentations that help to try to justify unbiblical beliefs. Don't fall for it. This clip is from a recent interview I did on Alisa Childers' channel. I took that interview and broke it down into topical videos dealing with the 23 different claims made b...
How They Misrepresent the God I Love 30.01.2021 5:46
Please notice that the heart of progressive Christian distortions of Christianity is NOT a careful interpretation of the Bible but emotion-filled shaming.

20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 20) 29.01.2021 1:13:51
Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference: 0:00 Introduction 1. 2:49 What led to the “charismatic conundrum” of 2020 where large numbers of false prophecies were being given by seemingly well-respected & well-known teachers online? 2. 9:13 I'm writing a book with a Native American friend and I want to help him come to Christ. He is respectful of Christianity, but terrible things have been done...
Are We Guilty of Worshipping the Bible? 29.01.2021 5:01
You know they have no real argument when they accuse you of worshipping the Bible. Take it as a compliment. This clip is from a recent interview I did on Alisa Childers' channel.

They Want Me to Pick Between Jesus and the Bible 28.01.2021 5:17
Today's video is really important to me. I think this tactic of having a distorted version of Jesus and using him to reject and reinterpret the Bible is a rising trend in progressive circles. I hope this short response will help those who have become confused by this tactic. I don't want us to replace the true Christ with a Christ fashioned after ourselves. This sort of thing promises that it will...
DON'T Interpret The Bible Like This 27.01.2021 7:52

Will People Be Punished for Picking the Wrong Religion? 26.01.2021 2:32

Hell's Not Real. Duh. 25.01.2021 5:02
Behind all of these various claims from this progressive Christian is the idea that you can reinvent Christianity however you like with no accountability to a consistent view of Scripture or Jesus. In today's case there seems to be a very odd reference (seemingly out of context or just made up) to a former pope in the place of quoting scripture. 0:00 intro 0:18 to SKIP intro This clip is from a re...
The True Meaning of Jesus Washing The Disciples' Feet 25.01.2021 43:49
This is one of my favorite Bible passages. I still remember when I was reading it and trying to figure out what sort of special meaning there was behind the actions of Jesus, and it hit me. I'm excited to get to share it with you. I'm not the first to discover this but it sure is a wonderful discovery! Today's study is from John 13, where Jesus humbles himself and washes the disciples' feet. I'm M...
"Jesus Didn't Die to Satisfy God's Wrath But To Satisfy Yours" 24.01.2021 4:41
It seems to me that what they hate is God's righteous judgment. I'm very sad to say it but since they are hating it in the name of Christianity someone needs to say it. Please don't let the emotional language of progressives confuse you on this issue. I'm including a link to my series explaining and defending Penal Substitutionary Atonement here just in case someone needs it. https://youtube.com/p...
Are Christians Saved by a “Magical Sinner's Prayer”? 23.01.2021 3:35
This is just weird. Are people in trouble merely for picking the wrong religion? Are they saved by magical magicky prayers?

20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 19) 23.01.2021 1:14:55
Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference : 0:00 Introduction 1. 0:32 Since the Bible says we can "lift holy hands" up to the Lord, and this is due to the imputed righteousness of Christ and not our own, can you explain David's words in Psalm 18: 20-24? 2. 8:12 What does the Bible say about dinosaurs? As someone who has studied the Bible & believes the story of Adam & Eve, I want to learn m...
Wrath and Hell Are Just Metaphors?! 22.01.2021 10:09
You can't just take whatever you don't like and call it a metaphor for a metaphor. At least not if you want to have intellectual integrity in your religious beliefs. I think the reason progressives redefine words is because they want the appearance of Christianity but without it's meaning. The claim of being Christian without the burden of following the teachings of Christ. Changing the meanings o...
The Dogmatic and Heartbreaking Politics of "Progressive Christianity" 21.01.2021 5:12
With their first quote you'd think they aren't dogmatic at all. That they are open to people having their own convictions. But the second quote shows this is all just part of "abortion in the name of Christ". It's tragic. Christians don't have to be republican but the issue of abortion is one where justice, love and the protection of the innocent compels us to stand pro-life. Abortion is one of th...
It Depends on What You Mean by "Gay" 20.01.2021 4:16
Today we deal with claim #2, "It's not a sin to be gay." I hope I can help us to think a bit more deeply about this. 0:00 intro 0:18 to SKIP intro I was recently interviewed by Alisa Childers and I've taken that interview and broke it down into topical videos dealing with the 23 different claims made by the "progressive Christian" Ragamuffin TV.
