  • How Do We Know We Are Elect?

  • 13 years ago
  • Hey Mike, I was wondering if you could give me some scripture and explanation for a few questions I have that have been on my mind a lot lately: How do we know we are elect? Can you explain the mean of "the brothers who give their father an evil report"? How do we interact with those in Babylon? How... [read more]

  • We owe allegiance to no man Mean?

  • 14 years ago
  • I happened upon your page as I was searching for some insight on a particular topic. Then I found myself browsing through your list of articles, many of which sound extremely interesting and I'd be excited to read. But then, I came to your "About Us" page. What do you mean when you say: "We owe all... [read more]

  • Christians Role in This Present Evil World?

  • 14 years ago
  • Hi Mike, What does it mean, "For our citizenship is in heaven." What do you mean when you say that we are not to concern ourselves as citizens of a heavenly kingdom, with the affairs of how to run this present evil world? Yours sincerely, W____ Hi W____, Thank you for your question concerning my co... [read more]

  • What Are the Towers of Isa 30_25?

  • 14 years ago
  • Hello Mike! Hope you are well and your family and friends. About 6 years ago, I read comments by someone concerning Isa 30:25 that the "Towers fall" were the World Trade Center, but I disagree with that. It has nothing to do with 9/11 World Trade Center. Am I correct? I admit, I don't understand wha... [read more]

  • Why Must We Struggle?

  • 15 years ago
  • Dear Bro Mike, How are you today? I have a question: why do I have such a hard time with my relationship with the Lord? I feel like I have to really work at staying close to him even though the desire in my heart is to serve Him and have my life be pleasing to Him. I spend most days alone as my husb... [read more]

  • Is There Time to Overcome?

  • 15 years ago
  • Mike, In my "daily bread", usually provided by iswasandwillbe. com, a question concerning my salvation has popped up again. I have a difficult time figuring out whether this wretched sinner will be on this earth long enough to become an "overcomer" and thus be in the "First Resurrection." I know it'... [read more]

  • Godly Love Restrains Division

  • 15 years ago
  • Hi Mike, I have read your article on What is Love over and over. Wonderful article! God is so wonderful to give you this great gift of understanding his word. I am planning, God willing, to go over this article Sunday with those at our bible study. I have one question in this part. "Which brings... [read more]

  • When To Speak Up?

  • 15 years ago
  • Hi Mike, Again it happens to me that you answered someone else's question, and I also get answer to a question I have. A couple I know lost their baby in the womb about nine weeks ago. I do not know them well, but I felt very sorry for their loss. This week they talked about the loss of their son, a... [read more]

  • Should We Resist Temptations?

  • 15 years ago
  • Hi Mike, I have been wondering lately: if we are to not act above the faith that's been given to us (which we will, it seems), then is resisting temptation doing this if we have not yet been given the power to rule our evil? I've gotten into much complacency in regard to this. Your brother in Christ... [read more]

  • Should We Share The Gospel With Babylonians?

  • 15 years ago
  • Dear Mike: I was driving on a different road to work this morning, and I saw a billboard message from a Babylonian church from last October. They were running their own version of a haunted house, with a caption that said "Let it scare the hell out of you". Should I consider sharing the gospel truth... [read more]

  • Following In His Footsteps

  • 15 years ago
  • Hi Mike, Enjoyed the last study, in fact, I just reviewed it again. A couple of thoughts came to mind. Have you noticed in Rev 7:10 that the multitude "cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God"? There is no other reference that I could find where anyone said "salvation to our God". Ther... [read more]

  • Were Christ And His Followers A Cult?

  • 16 years ago
  • Hi Mike, Sometimes it is difficult to relay the emotion which also plays with these kind of struggles in an email. I am always learning from the Scriptural answers I recieve through you. My mother- in- law went to a woman she knows who said concerning me, "Pity he does not go to church anymore. I he... [read more]
