  • Hi Mike, It seems to me that good works follow God giving you faith and belief and when you're following him and focused on him... he gives you desire to listen to his commands and to do them... works not necessary for salvation.. I guess I see it like; do you wanna get a 'D' or an 'A'.. D is still... [read more]
  • A____ wrote: Dear mike, I know that the House of God is the pillar and ground of truth, but who exactly is this church, this house of God? Is this the few chosen? Is there any way you can show me this in scripture, as I struggle to answer this question. I'm unable to find much on it, except for the... [read more]
  • Mike, What is the difference between law of ordinances, moral law, and ceremonial law? Were the ten commandments, feast days, sabbaths, tithing, animal sacrifice and clean/ unclean meats abolished at the cross? What's the difference between the mosaic law and God's law?

  • A proper understanding of the law of God is the single most difficult thing for Christians to grasp. Mat 5:17 is one of the most misunderstood scriptures in all of the Bible. Mat 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. Everyone seem... [read more]
  • Mike, Will the old covenant be practiced in the millennium? Like the holy days, the sabbath, animal sacrifices (Eze 43:18-27)? D____ Hi D____, Thank you for your questions. The answer to them all is an emphatic NO! In Christ there is no 'going back' to the "weak and beggarly elements to which we w... [read more]
  • Hello Mike, I'm not trying to be a pain in the neck, but I really want to understand a few things and I honor your wisdom in these matters.
