  • The Difference Between Agapao And Phileo

  • 17 years ago
  • Mike, I was pondering over Joh 21:15-17 and seeking understanding on why the switch Jesus made after using agape two times, he ends using phileo.  In the KJV the last two say "feed my sheep", but I noticed the following switch in Young's Literal Translation.  Joh 21:15 When, therefore, t...

  • My Thoughts Are Not Your Thoughts

  • 17 years ago
  • Mike, Maybe I was not clear at the end but - "then all Israel will be saved", is that it referring  to "spiritual Israel" Because many times in the chapter  it is made evident that that spiritual Israel is the subject matter at hand. Spiritual Israel= natural branches of the election (wh... [read more]

  • To Know The Truth

  • 17 years ago

  • The Rock On Which His Church Is Built

  • 17 years ago
  • Hi Mike. Wow, I can't begin to thank you enough for the time you've taken to address my questions and concerns. You've probably taken more time to edify and exhort in this one email than my pastor ever did all the time I was in the Church. I've watched the videos of the two talks you mentioned a fe...

  • Is Scripture The Word of God? Part 2

  • 17 years ago
  • Hi Mike, Thank you for your quick reply. I would like to clarify what I said, perhaps saying it in a different way. I am in no way denying the need for the Scriptures, nor am I trying to belittle it. I am merely trying to assign it its proper place. As you have pointed out, they indeed serve a very ...

  • What Are Biblical Symbols?

  • 17 years ago
  • H H____, I will comment on your letter paragraph by paragraph. Hi Mike: Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. And understanding what I am going through. I don't plan on seeking out the pastor. He is so entrenched with the false doctrines that if only he knew that it is just not tithing that we p... [read more]

  • Just How Christ-Centric Is Scripture?

  • 18 years ago
  • To Mike Vinson and the other writers of IWWB, I am currently listed in the registry of a Church of Christ. The reason I didn't outright say I am a member of that church is because I don't believe in a lot of its teachings anymore. If you are not familiar with this church some of their main teachings...

  • Hi Mike, Thanx very much for your response to my last e-mail I sent. It really helped. I was listening to the audio on the Spiritual significance of the Levites, Priests and tabernacle series.
