Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference: 0:00 - Intro 1. 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 offende...
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

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 ...
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 Gar...
This was embarrassing. They went viral with smoke and mirrors and I just want to clear the air and suggest that these men aren't the thought leaders for our uncertain future.

I don't share this in a lighthearted way. If children are in danger and victims are left undefended, then those who can do something should do something. If Greg is telling the truth, then he can do something. If he is lying, he needs to publicly admit it. But I've learned too much over the past year and a half to just ignore such strong accusations accompanied by claims that Greg has proof to back them up. Of the two videos I showed you, I can only find one still available online. Here's the fu...

The two come down on different sides on the idea of “3rd Wayism,” both for very biblically compelling reasons. It’s actually a bit frustrating! What are your thoughts on these competing postures? Can you offer up a 4th way? 3. 1:06:17 {Donald Trump’s Recent Statements} Wi...

I’m ashamed of that, considering all Jesus did for me, but it's true. Lately I challenged myself to just obey with a good attitude when asked, but even then, I feel so guilty knowing I didn’t...

Bethel knew and didn't warn... I believe that Bob Hartley is one of the key threads running through the past 40 years of the Charismatic church (Bethel, IHOPKC, Morningstar, etc.). If we pull on that thread, we will see the truth that there is a long-standing Cover-up Culture in the movement and some of the biggest names have participated in it. In this video, I interview the son of Bob Hartley, Jedidiah, who exposes his father's fake prophecy grift and how Bob used it to prey upon women. I also...

The kids go to school and learn ideologies that undermine the Christian faith. Later they end up voting, teaching, and running the country with those ungodly ideologies directing them. This has been going on for a while now and the results are devastating. But we can turn the tide if we just stop sleeping on this. Where education goes, the country goes. In this video we are going to outline not only the problem but the solutions we can all participate in, to take back universities for Christ and...

This Q&A episode critically examines Pastor Marvin Winans' public giving day, exposing its prosperity gospel messages, financially manipulative methods, and unbiblical partiality, contrasting them with Jesus' teachings on secret giving. Mike Winger then tackles diverse listener questions, including Israel's land claim, the nature of God's emotions, the role of free will in suffering, and the complexities of Christian identity and salvation, offering biblical insights for analytical thinkers and those struggling with doubt.
There is an information war going on about Nigeria right now. While persecution has intensified, we are flooded with lies about how there simply is no Christian persecution by Muslims in Nigeria. Completely deceptive propagandists are appearing all over, including one platformed by Tucker Carlson recently, who denied the truth about Christian persecution. Yet, just this last week we've seen 300 kids kidnapped, one church assaulted during a live stream of their services, and another incident of 5...
In this engaging Q&A, Mike Winger explores common biblical questions, offering thoughtful interpretations on topics like seeing God immediately after death, balancing Christian liberty with weaker consciences regarding alcohol, and reconciling calls to hate evil with loving enemies. He also distinguishes double-mindedness from genuine sin struggles, discusses God's attributes, and provides practical advice on starting Christian content channels and overcoming excessive screen time, all while challenging harmful cover-up cultures in the church.
