  • Good morning Mike, I need to tell you about a dream I had the other night which has stayed with me for days.

  • Aren't There Differences Between How Physical and Spiritual Beings Are Treated? Hi Mike, I'm wondering if you can give a deeper explanation of how the lake of fire is the same for God's elect now and supposedly the same for unbelievers later in the resurrection to judgment. I've read much of what yo... [read more]
  • 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]
  • Hey, Mr. Vinson, I'm so excited to get your reply!! ... I know that you probably get 100's of letters a day telling you that you are a cult- leading heretic and you lead people to damnation etc., and before I ask you this question, I want you to know this isn't what I'm after.

  • Dear Mike, I just wanted to make a comment and ask you if my thinking is correct and that you might, God willing, either expound or correct. You say quote, " I cannot tell you how much it means to me to know that you really are praying for me." I think I might know how much it means to you that you ... [read more]

If we say that God created a devil named Satan to do the tempting fo... [read more]
  • Hi Mike, I want to explain to you how I was taught to interpret Rom 7. It is a classic example of how one foundational false doctrine becomes the foundation for not rightly dividing the word which leads to more false doctrines as well 'solidifying' our continuing to build our spiritual house on sand...

  • Dear Mr. Vinson, On three separate occasions, my wife and I have asked a bible teacher why he "skipped" the most important tithing verse in the New Testament (Heb 7:8) when he quoted most of Heb 7 in a "tithing" paper.
