I'm giving bad guys the summer off: 10 Qs with Mike Winger (Ep 78)
Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference:0:00 - Intro1. 0:17 {TPT – Breaking Info} What BOMB are we about to drop on The Passion Translation?2. 25:04 {Calvinism Proven False?} Do you think a good argument against Calvinism is the fact that God chose the people of Israel but clearly some Israelites didn’t choose God back?3. 32:00 {No Christian Clothing Allowed} I’m a teenager who just got a job at a café and my boss said I can’t wear any religious clothing because some people might be offended. How do I handle this situation in a biblical way?4. 35:19 {Illegal = More Abortions?} How do I respond to people who claim that it’s better for abortion to be legal because abortion rates are reportedly higher in places where it’s illegal?5. 42:31 {Gentiles & Moral Laws} In Acts 15, the apostles only list four laws but exclude other moral laws (like murder). Also, Paul later says idol meat is okay. How then do I take this passage as a Gentile believer?6. 48:22 {Given or Must Be Given?} If the Father already “gave” believers to Jesus (John 6:37), why must Jesus still “acknowledge” them before the Father (Matthew 10:32)? Isn’t the Father already fully aware of who belongs to Christ?7. 52:41 {Did They Know the Divine Name?} Why does Exodus 6:3 seemingly say the patriarchs did not know the divine name when Genesis 28:16 records that they did?8. 59:21 {Trajectory Hermeneutics?} If we can infer slavery abolition as the outworking of biblical principles, even though not commanded, why can't we similarly infer full female leadership? When is it okay to apply trajectory hermeneutics, and when is it not?9. 1:10:02 {Unclean Spirit Still Present?} In Acts 16:16-18, how/why would the woman with an unclean spirit be able to correctly confirm the truth of what Paul is preaching before Paul commands the spirit to leave her?10. 1:18:40 {Accepting & Embracing God’s Love} How do I actually accept Gods love? I know the Bible says He loves me, but how do I accept and receive it with confidence?11. 1:23:50 {Brian Simmons’ Christology} More on Brian Simmons’ theological errors. These channels are still exposing Cover-up Culture even while I'm on break:@MinorProphetsPodcast (stay tuned for a coming video on Brian Simmons and The Passion Translation) @WakeUpandWinPodcast @drroncantor My Women in Ministry Playlist: Click Here Ben Schettler is here - show him some support: https://www.thecenterfortruthinlove.org/ Maven (helping train young people): https://maventruth.com/ Bring your own questions to the next live chat (put a Q at the beginning of the live chat comment and try to make it something that could be easily understood and include important references) https://BibleThinker.org

I've been sitting on this for years...
Because of how widespread his "translation" is, how his teaching is impacting people's lives, and how many leaders have recklessly endorsed his work, I think you should know about his wrong prophecy. For the love of God's Word, please avoid Brian Simmons and his translation. My website: https://BibleThinker.org

Why You Won't Be Seeing Much of Me for a While: 10 Qs with Mike Winger (Ep 77)
0:00 - Intro1. 0:13 {Where’s Mike Going?} Why won’t you be seeing much of Mike for the next 3 months, and how can we help support Ben Schettler who was recently attacked while speaking?2. 16:36 {If We’re Priests & Kings, No Alcohol?} The Bible doesn’t condemn drinking alcohol, but the two types of people in the Old Testament forbidden to drink were the priests and the kings. Since we are now both, shouldn’t that apply to us?3. 25:25 {Trusting God On Earth} I struggle to trust God with my earthly life. I trust Him with my soul and salvation, but since He never promised comfort here, I am unable to depend on Him for my future, like finances or marriage. Any advice?4. 33:34 {Bad Trees Bearing Good Fruit?} How can we reconcile Matthew 7:15-20 and Matthew 21-23 (or do we even need to)? If a bad tree cannot bear good fruit, how can those with the appearance of good fruit be rejected?5. 40:44 {Why did OT Jews Miss the Gospel?} I recently watched your Romans series and finished Romans 4. My question is, it seems Paul makes salvation through faith an obvious concept in the Old Testament. If so, then why did many Jews seem to miss it?6. 53:39 {Universal Church: A Biblical Concept?} Is it true that in every example where the word “church” is used in the Bible, it refers to the local church? I’ve heard people say there’s no such thing as the “universal church” in the Bible.7. 58:34 {Sharing Unverified Testimonies?} Is it okay to show, as proof of the efficacy of your ministry, testimonies that you have not or cannot confirm entirely, such as healings via a prayer stream?8. 1:05:49 {Must We Always Pray Before Eating?} Should Christians always pray before we eat?9. 1:12:00 {Where/How did Sin Originate?} How did evil enter the hearts of Adam, Eve, and even Satan, since all were created good and in perfect relationship with God? Where did any inclination toward sin or evil desire originate?10. 1:16:32 {Implementing Spiritual Disciplines: The “How”} Do you have any advice on implementing the spiritual disciplines?

For Ten Years He Got Away With It: The Fake Prophet and His Enablers
Ten years ago, Gary Morgan was caught red-handed and bad pastors covered up for him. Solid evidence of fake prophecy and even email fraud. But he got away with it and the godly Christians who tried to call him out were vilified and abused by their pastors. Bill Johnson knew about Gary Morgan and still went and did ministry with him. Che Ahn had endorsed Gary as a great prophet like Shawn Bolz (I'm not making this up). Yet, Che's system of accountability not only failed to protect people from Gary, leaders in his network attacked the only people calling for him to be dealt with biblically. This video will have the evidence, and I mean a TON of evidence, showing not only that Gary is guilty but that other pastors have been lying in order to protect him. I pray this video vindicates Nathaniel and Hayley from the lies that have been told about them for the past ten years. I also pray that it rightfully exposes not only Gary Morgan but the people who have lied to protect him. People like Peter McHugh, who I confronted on video and caught in several lies. The broader Charismatic church needs reform and a renewed commitment to truth and biblical handling of the gifts. I pray this video helps make that a reality. Dear Charismatic brothers and sisters of mine, I know that my name is mud in many of your circles now. I know that I can be seen as a wrecking ball, meddler, accuser of the brethren, or otherwise someone who has evil motives, has "gone too far," or just isn't doing this right. I just want you to know that I do this because I believe in you. Please prove me right.

How A Few Charismatic Pastors Went Viral With Deception

The dangerous trend of fake prophets on YouTube: 10 Qs with Mike Winger (Ep 76)
Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference:0:00 - Intro1. 0:52 {Fake Prophecies: How To!} How to make money from giving fake prophecies on YouTube. 2. 29:50 {Christians = Pushovers?} Where's the line between graciousness/meekness and tenacity in everyday life situations (such as a store manager not giving me a refund I'm rightfully due, or a restaurant stating no available seating despite me calling in advance and being told “yes” before driving all the way there)? I'm left feeling guilty when I push for what's right, but are we supposed to be pushovers?3. 36:30 {Tithing: A Universal Obligation?} Does Abram’s tithe to Melchizedek support that tithing is a universal moral obligation since that passage is pre-law and Melchizedek is a type of Christ? 4. 48:17 {Discerning the Spirit Realm} Coming out of the NAR where everything is over spiritualized, how would someone know if they are actually seeing into the spirit realm or if they need to see a doctor for psychiatric help?5. 51:55 {Was Jesus Poor?} I can’t imagine Jesus depending on others for money. Didn’t Jesus work as a carpenter for over 15 years before He started His ministry at age 30? He was probably good at it, so wouldn’t He have had His own money?6. 56:49 {Finding Biblical Definitions} How do laypeople go about finding reliable definitions of specific terms in the Bible, specifically like the word “works” in the book of James?7. 59:39 {Removing Our Ego from Our Worship} Do you have any advice on how I can get out of my own head while worshiping? I play bass on Sundays, and my ego always tries to take over.8. 1:01:47 {Ezekiel 44-46: Who is The Prince?} Who is the prince referred to in Ezekiel 44-46? I’ve heard it explained as Jesus during the Millennial Kingdom, but that doesn’t make sense given that he must sacrifice sin offerings. 9. 1:10:24 {Learning to Choose Diligence} What advice would you give someone who wants to change, but keeps choosing laziness instead?10. 1:14:31 {For When You’re Feeling Condemned} How do you explain to someone that is saved and still messes up (sins) that they are still going to Heaven if they have trusted Christ for salvation? Here's my video on Melchizedek and Jesus: Click Here Here's the one on Brandon Biggs (who I consider a dangerous fake prophet): Click Here This is the James Goll video (who I think used political speculation as fake prophecy): Click Here My website: https://BibleThinker.org Bring your own questions to the live chat (put a Q at the beginning of the live chat comment and try to make it something that could be easily understood and include important references)

Vivek's Pagan Jesus Isn't Jesus: 10 Qs with Mike Winger (Ep 75)
Bring your own questions to the live chat (put a Q at the beginning of the live chat comment and try to make it something that could be easily understood and include important references). Today's Time Stamps: 0:00 - Introduction1. 0:14 Does Vivek Ramaswamy have a biblical view of Jesus and the Gospel?2. 16:15 Is Genesis 1:3 the moment Lucifer was made (Morning Star, first creation, first worker, Genesis 1:31 jealous of mankind, new standard very good)? Please also see Ezekiel 28:11, Genesis 3:1, Isaiah 14:12, Luke 10:18.3. 24:22 The Parable of the Laborers (Matthew 20) says we get the same reward in Heaven, but the Parable of the Tenants (Matthew 25:14-30) says we get different rewards based on our works. How do we reconcile this?4. 34:38 Why do Christians continue the tradition of using "LORD" for YHWH in modern translations, and why isn't this practice blasphemous or wrong as groups like the Jehovah’s Witnesses would argue?5. 42:33 In Acts 19:5-7, it says there were 12 men in total that began prophesying and speaking in tongues. How does this align with Paul’s direction to limit tongues to 2 or 3 people in 1 Corinthians 14:27?6. 51:42 J. Warner Wallace talks about sanctification as a long hallway between justification and glorification. If some people still make it to glorification without the hallway, why is it necessary at all?7. 55:28 Hey Mike, what does it mean to "not provoke your children to anger"? Scripture instructs us to discipline our kids, and Hebrews 12:6 allows for the use of punishments, so what counts as provoking?8.58:44 I do TikTok lives reading Scripture and sharing insights I've found. But does 1 Timothy 2: 11-15 make this sinful for me as a woman? I truly want to know how to please God.9. 1:01:38 I recently came to Christ and since have been on fire for Christ. My wife has been a Christian all her life and often compares her walk to mine and wonders why she doesn't have the same fire. Advice?10. 1:05:53 This might sound weird, but sometimes thinking of God as perfectly good and loving makes me doubt. Can we really be so lucky to have the best-case scenario God?
