  • God Hath Set in the Church...

  • 6 years ago
  • God Hath Set in the Church... 1Co 12:27  Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. 1Co 12:28  And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. 1Co 1...

  • Can Christian Men Work With Female Bosses?

  • 15 years ago
  • Hi Mike, I pray daily for you to be faithful to God's Word as well as I ask God to help me be faithful, too. I have a question about the article I am reading for the second or third time. You state that the women should not usurp the authority of the man, or rather the scriptures state that the wive... [read more]

  • Was Christ In Prison?

  • 15 years ago
  • Hi Everyone, Hope all is well in your world. I am studying the "spirits in prison" conundrum and am getting some clarity as I move along your site, for which I am more grateful than words can express. I came across Isa 53:8 which seems to suggest that Christ was in prison. Could you add your thought... [read more]

  • Who Leads His Flock?

  • 16 years ago
  • Sirs; I cannot begin to tell you how important your site is to me. I read it daily and have for quite a while. Unfortunately God has not blessed me with a mind that seems to hold these things for very long. Perhaps at 63 it is too much to expect, perhaps, the 70’s took their toll. Our pastor, ... [read more]

  • Tithing

  • 16 years ago
  • Mike, I am having a tough time understanding the reason for tithing by the Israelites and also the spiritual application thereof. Here we have churches mushrooming in a bid to make quick bucks, and they are not ashamed to ask the congregation to buy a pastor the most expensive car. What is the spiri... [read more]

  • Was Christ Unhealthy Or Diseased?

  • 16 years ago
  • Hi Mike, In Luk 4 we read this verse: Luk 4:23 And he said to them, Ye will surely say to me this parable, Physician, heal thyself; whatsoever we have heard has taken place in Capernaum do here also in thine own country. These people apparently heard of all the miracles Jesus was doing. They were no... [read more]

  • The Foolishness Of Preaching

  • 17 years ago
  • Hi Mike:       I think that my wife and I first started to see the truth in the Word because of the foolish preaching of the church that most certainly did not line up with the Word. This is what we believe is the reason we came out of the church. We are still learning from ... [read more]

  • Do We Need Teachers?

  • 17 years ago
  • Hi,            Can I as an individual pray asking to understand and to have wisdom as I read the Bible that I may understand all the symbology? Or in other words, can I with faith alone, see through the words and understand?    ... [read more]

  • Vessels Different One From Another

  • 17 years ago
  • Hi Mike Though my relationship with R____ is just beginning, already I sense God working great kinship between us. He is another of those marvelous believers in whom it is just evident that God is working. I cannot commend Him highly enough. In all things so far He has shown Himself to be just an ab...

  • Career Ministers

  • 18 years ago
  • If you have a second, could you give me quick thoughts on 1Co 9 (the chapter)? Thanks, M____ Hi M___ Your question is, in essence, should we have career ministers? No one denies that they which minister about holy things live of the things of the temple, and they which wait at the altar are partak... [read more]

  • The Meaning of Communion

  • 18 years ago
  • Mike,     At the last supper Christ said 'as often as you do this, do it in rememberance of me.'  I believe that every time (as often as) we eat anything or every time (as often as) we drink we are to remember Christ.  This is not something that is reserv... [read more]
