Water, Wind, Wine Ministries's Podcast

Many people are unaware of the distinction between the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Heaven. Even if they do recognize a difference, they don't know what separates them. This results in confusion, which leads to selfishness and all kinds of evil. Moreover, many Christians mistakenly believe that seeing the Kingdom of God is equivalent to entering it. However, this is not true; these two c...

Most people today depend on the opinions of others to build their self-esteem and feel valued. This can be a dangerous situation, as the Bible teaches that you become enslaved to anyone you give your power away to. In this week's session, I will explain how Jesus did not commit himself to what people said about him because he understood that if they could make him Messiah, they could also unm...

Most people view Jesus as a gentle, loving figure who was never angry or violent. However, He did become aggressive on occasion - such as when He drove out those selling sacrifices at the temple. In this week's session I will discuss what we can learn from this event.

Religion can lead us to believe that we can make ourselves clean and protect ourselves.  In this week's session, I will explore how God is actually provoked to act on our behalf based on His relationship with us, not always His will. Additionally, I'll discuss the phenomenon of drawing upon the anointing placed within us by God; when done in faith, it brings Heaven to Earth through the m...

Religion is one of humanity's most oppressive forces, resulting in fear, idolatry, sin and enslavement.  In direct opposition to this, God calls us into relationship with Him through Jesus Christ.  When we understand the love that God has for us it breaks off religion and sets us free.  This week's session explores how Nathanial's call to salvation serves as a metaphor for what happ...

You Don’t Have to Be Baptized     There is a large swath of Christians that believe that to be saved, you must also be baptized.    That is not the truth.   In this session, I will teach you what the Bible really says about baptism and why it is not necessary for salvation.   I realize that this is probably a fairly sacred cow for most people but, to echo the words of Galatians 4:16   “Am I theref...

I have titled this session “Johnuary _ 1” because this month, I am going to focus on John. I intend to focus not only on the Apostle John and his gospel, but John who is called the baptizer.    The gospel of John begins with these famous words,   “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were mad through Him, and w...

This session might offend some and for that I take responsibility. I do not ask you to pardon nor excuse my discussion herein because I believe it truly helpful and necessary. As well, I make no apologies for what I am about to lay forth for it, when received and understood will assist people in their real and everyday lives.  In recent pop culture, there is an expression. This expression describe...

I bet you haven’t given much thought to the colt that Jesus rode into Jerusalem on.    There is so much that can be learned from just that piece of the story but in this little session- I only cover the tip of the preverbal iceberg.   Please watch or listen to the session and I’ll bet you’re amazed at what you learn.   Thanks for tuning in.   Be Blessed to be a blessing!!     I used this song in t...

Why did Jesus say that it was hard for those who have riches to enter the  Kingdom of God?    Does that mean it is hard for rich people to go to Heaven?   What is the difference between the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Heaven?   If you have ever read Mark 10 and had these questions, this session is for you!    In this session I explain, in no uncertain terms, the difference between the  Kingd...

How to fight the devil   Do you want to know how to fight the devil? Do you think the battle is actually with him?    What if I told you that the fight you need to fight is faith?   The Bible never actually tells us to fight the devil, it tells us to fight the good fight of faith.    That sounds like a great and esoteric ideal but how do we actually do that?   In this session, I outline for you sp...

This is the fifth and final video in the "God the abuser" series. God says that our own actions correct us.  Jeremiah 2:19 Lamentations 3:33-37- 37 (Septuagent)- Who has spoken and it has come to pass? The Lord has not commanded. Out of the mouth of the Most High there shall not come forth evil and good."  When events occur that present hardships to us, we must first examine ourselv...

People confuse consequences with abuse. Consequence is defined as: "a result or effect of an action or condition." Abuse - a result or effect of an action or condition. - treat (a person or an animal) with cruelty or violence, especially regularly or repeatedly - assault (someone, especially a woman or child) sexually. - use or treat in such a way as to cause damage or harm - speak in an...

This is the third session in this series. In it, I cover Job and the Garden of Eden. Below are my notes: Let’s deal with the Old Testament image of God and why the unbelievers and some Christians would believe God is an abuser. Job 1:21- 21 And he said: “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, And naked shall I return there. The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; Blessed be the name of the Lord.”...

Here we discuss the three categories of people who believe that God is an abuser. Let this lesson challenge your belief system and what you think you know.

Do you believe that God is abusive?  No? There are some attitudes and actions ascribed to the Lord in this series that might challenge that notion.  Make sure to listen to all of them so that you can develop the right attitude about the Lord!!

Are you concerned at all about what's happening in the world? This short session will help you make sense of it and prepare you.

Bridle your tongue   I’ll bet you think that the devil lied to Eve in the Garden of Eden and that is why it is said that she was deceived. Well if you think that, I have to tell you – you are wrong!!    In this session I explain what actually happen and how we can learn from Eve’s wrong choice in our everyday lives.   Thanks for tuning in!   Please like and subscribe     Music Used: Holy, Holy, Ho...

 In James chapter 3, the Word of God admonishes us that blessings and cursing should not come from the same mouth. James then launches into both a reason and a metaphor.    The metaphor therein outlined is the blatantly obvious fact that one natural stream does not produce both bitter water and fresh. Further, James argues that a fig tree cannot bear olives nor a grapevine bear figs. (vs 11-12) In...

Have you ever wondered which way to go ? If you’re like me, you certainly have. And if you’re like me, you have relied on your own knowledge to decide. What if I told you that you can take the guessing out of knowing what to do and where to go?  That is exactly what I am telling you.  You never have to guess or wonder again. How is this possible? With God of course! In Proverbs chapter 3:5-6, we a...

God intended us to be self-sustained. That’s why He gave us everything we needed before we needed it. This is a short video but it is profound!  Please like and subscribe! I used a song called “Into the forest” by Jakob Ahlbom https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/MvWvpDQcy0/

  Have you ever felt like you don’t really belong in the body of Christ? How about feeling like you have nothing to offer the body simply because you don’t have a “public” ministry. Or are you on the other side… do you have a public ministry and secretly (or openly) look down on those in the body who don’t? As if they are somehow less “gifted” than yourself? I’m sure that you know- at least you wo...

Resurrection In this preach, you will learn the truth behind Easter, Passover and the Resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Here is an outline of the topics: ·      The existence of other “resurrection” stories ·      Why the Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the most important knowledge of Christianity and why it makes Christianity the truth. ·      The Jewish calendar and Spring feasts...

Love  1 Corinthians 13 delineates all the attributes of love. Just prior to that, we are told that there are spiritual gifts (1 Corinthians 12) but that “Love” is the more excellent way. Paul wrote to us here stating that as members of the body of Christ, we can experience at least 9 of the manifestations of the Holy Spirit and that we are to desire the best gift. Then, he says, he will show us “a...

The order to do things:               The Bible has been said to contain direction for everything we do in life. When I first heard this statement, I honestly did not believe it. However, the older I become the more I realize that it is true. Literally there is instruction and wisdom for every activity of man. This week is just a small session that highlights one of the verses that will direct our...
