Mr. Vinson
I go to the Nazarene church. (Do you know of this denomination?) Our pastor is a good man, but once in a great while he will preach about tithing. My brother and I were questioning the reasons behind this. It seems to us that if tithing were of utmost necessity in God's mind, He would re... [read more]

J____,
This is an email I received that I wonder if it is scripturally correct:
It is called "experience." These diviners, psychics, discerners, so called witches and what have you have been doing what they do for so long that they already know what the average person goes through in life. They are... [read more]

2Pe 2:20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
2Pe 2:21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of... [read more]

My very best friend and girlfriend, who is a woman of faith, ran across a site ... which I'm sure you've heard of before. They pretty much have a big organizat... [read more]

Dear Mike,
Thanks for your reply and your concern. I know that you are sincere and honest in what you believe. If I had not known this, I would never have even brought up the subject of Satan. Actually, as strange as it may sound, I can see it both ways - i. e. literal or symbolic. It seems to work... [read more]

Well, Mike,
I know the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, is a person, just as the Father and Christ Jesus are persons, and these are my God. The conviction came to me by the revelation of God and is confirmed by His witnesses.
Your interpretation of scripture does not convince me, because you speak natur... [read more]

Can Universalism be Refuted?
Dear Mike,
I read an essay by Ron Rhodes, and I wanted to know your thoughts on his essay, "Is Universalism Biblical?"
In the intro, he talks about Joh 12:32, Php 2:11, and 1Ti 2:4 as being "typically twisted out of context in support of universalism." He explains how J... [read more]

Mike if you have time, I was wondering if you could explain something Jesus said.
The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. (Joh 12:25)
Does this imply that a Christian will lose his salvation if he finds, saves, keep... [read more]

Hi Mike,
I've been reading your articles, and they are awesome. Thanks so much for all the work you have put into them.
I have a question on healing. I understand that God uses everything for our good, and I was wondering if it is wrong for us to go to doctors? I was told that it was a lack of faith... [read more]

Carlton Pearson's 'Doctrine of Inclusion' denies the plain words of our Lord:
Mat 22:14 For many are called, but few are chosen.
And again:
Luk 13:23 Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved?[ Here's the answer to Carlton Pearson's 'doctrine of inclusion.'] And he said unto them... [read more]

Hello Mike,
I know many mistrust the concept of "conscience." However, I have come to understand that this is how God speaks to us - mostly by impressions. I really think it is as simple as "yes" or "no," indicating God's approval or disapproval. Symbols of this in the Old Testament were the Urim a... [read more]

Hello Mike,
I'm trying to understand the verse in Revelation that states that the dragon sent a flood after the woman (out of his mouth), but the Earth helped her. Do you recall writing an explanation of this verse that you could point me to?
Thanks
