  • I’m better than Jesus.
    Jun 26 2024

    You just won’t learn that much by reading the book.

    Try Doctrine and Covenants, the Book of Abraham, or this passage I read from today that is in Histories of the Church, Volume 6, 408-409.

    Jun 25 2024

    Thank you, Costi Hinn, for having the courage to expose Benny Hinn's harms even when it impacts your own family. Thank you to Jeremiah and Andrew, the guys at Cultish, for caring about the victims of Benny Hinn.

    See my four hour documentary showing the evidence that Benny Hinn has been spiritually abusing people for over 30 years HERE.

  • 10 Questions with Mike Winger (Episode 18)
    Jun 21 2024

    How can a just God hold people accountable for their beliefs if those beliefs are influenced by cultural, social, and psychological factors beyond their control?

    Today's Timestamps:
    1. 1:08 {Should I Really be Held Accountable?} How can a just God hold people accountable for their beliefs if those beliefs are influenced by cultural, social, and psychological factors beyond their control?
    2. 28:53 {Is Hell Just the Absence of God?} Is it accurate when people say, "Hell is simply the absence of God"? For Example, Jesus is the water of life so there's no water in Hell, or we rest in Christ so there's no rest in Hell.
    3. 38:26 {Political Signups in Church?} Do you think churches should allow political signup ballots for certain bills in the church? I had an older woman come up to me and ask me to sign. For context, it was about gas and electricity.
    4. 45:43 {Slaves or Friends of Christ?} Does Jesus “call” us His slaves? In John 15:15 He says He does not, but in Revelation 2:20 He seems to do so.
    5. 50:11 {Jesus – the Son of Man} Why does Jesus switch from first person to third person only when He’s referring to Himself as The Son of Man?
    6. 52:53 {Does Refusal of Sex Justify Divorce?} Does 1 Corinthians 7 really mean we can never say no to sex except for a season of fasting and prayer? My pastor told my husband that if I deny him for too long then he has biblical grounds for divorce.
    7. 1:02:27 {Did Jesus Teach on the Rapture?} A friend doesn’t believe in the Rapture because “Jesus never taught it” and he doesn’t consider Paul (or his writings) to be authoritative. How would you approach something like that?
    8. 1:10:25 {Do Only Good Things Come from God?} Is the concept of only good things coming from God biblical? I hear this a LOT in CCM and I am just not sure, given how our culture defines "good.” Is God not finished if your story isn't "good”?
    9. 1:18:10 {Biblical Support for Calvinism?} What's up with Isaiah 63:17? Is this a bullet in the Calvinist gun?
    10. 1:24:57 {Did Jesus ever Make Mistakes at Work?} Do you suppose Jesus was the most skilled carpenter who ever lived? Is it heretical to imagine Him ever making a mistake on the job?

Glad to have found Mike on Audible

I dislike YouTube when listening to long podcasts or teachings because it drains my phone battery and I'm not paying to have YT keep running when I turn my screen off. Tried the BibleThinker app, which crashes randomly. Audible is my reliable go-to for listening throughout the day, with zero ad interruption, and I'm so happy to have found Mike's work here.

Been binging BibleThinker on YT for about six months now, have only found a handful of things I disagreed with, but I never disagree with the godly manner in which Mike presents himself and his information. When I run into those tough gotcha questions that trolls like to throw down, I have started consulting Mike to see if he has a perspective on the matter, especially if I hadn't heard of some issue before. Thanks for pointing us to other great apologists and podcasts as well.

May our Lord continue to bless your ministry, now more than ever, in Jesus name.

Best Bible Teacher I’ve found

I started watching Pastor Mike on YouTube while studying the Bible. There are several others I also like, but Mike Winger is by far the best. His podcast and videos cover verse by verse sections of the Bible, and he has a weekly 20 questions where you can ask about specific issues or Scripture verses. He spends probably 75% of his free time studying and researching, from what I can tell. He knows more about the Catholic Church than any priest or Catholic I know.

Mike is also humble, doesn’t ask for money, and is very gracious when discussing other points of view. He’s easy to understand and likable. By far I’ve learned more from him than any other pastor or teacher. I highly recommend his content for anyone wanting to learn about scripture. He gets into the meat of content and is caring and knowledgeable, and he readily admits when he might be wrong or changes position from further research.
