Hi Mike,
When do you consider your conversion had taken place? Your baptism in Worldwide?
How do you view your worldwide journey? Do you consider that the time of God calling you?
I do mine even though I see many doctrinal problems of that church, past or present.
My baptism took place in '68 there... [read more]

Hi Mike,
I enjoy your site and have learned a lot. My former pastor said to me one day "If God blessed us only when we deserved it, we would never get blessed." Is there any truth to that?
Thanks,

Hi Mike,
I have been a little disoriented lately with confusion regarding the Scriptures. I agree with your comment that Truth does not change. But when I came across Deu 22:20-21 or any other instance of encouraging death by stoning, I have found it hard to stomach that that could be Truth (not to ... [read more]

I was hoping you could comment on my below question. I heard a belief that Christ's teachings in Mat 5 were... [read more]

Greetings,
I ran across your article about the Law of Moses and the Law of the Spirit and would like to offer a rebuttal. You are breaking the 4th commandment and teaching men to do the same. I don't know how you "cease from your works ... [read more]

Mike,
Thank you so much for your website. I have learned so much from your articles but I do have a question (maybe it's more like a 'statement').
I've noticed in several of your articles, you use the term 'Christ contradicts the law'. In my mind, this statement at its face value is just not true. C... [read more]

Mike,
This is a follow-up question regarding a prior dialog [Who Can Eat of the Sin Offering?] This question came to mind after I read your response. In John 6:47-66, Jesus uses a lot references to sacrifice that the disciples he was talking to understood because of the law that was imposed on thei... [read more]

Dear Mike,
I hope you and yours and doing well. I have always been puzzled by the account of David and Bathsheba. Here we have a man having intercourse with a married woman, and the law clearly stating that under such circumstances both the man and the woman were to be put to death.
Deu 22:22 If a m... [read more]

Mike I was asked by a friend this question: if God doesn't want us to kill our enemies than why did He have Israel wipe out their enemies? I clearly see that we are not to take someone's life literally or in our hearts by hating. We are... [read more]

Hello Mike,
I read the article entitled, "The Law of Moses versus the Law of the Spirit" and am still unclear about works and grace and how they should interact.
From reading your article, I sense that you feel that we need to completely eschew works of the law. You have sta... [read more]

Shalom, Mike -
Here are some responses to some of the points you made. I hope they make sense and you're able to follow along.
First, you must understand that Jesus cannot and did not oppose the Torah. His teaching and life ministry was in complete harmony... [read more]
