Hi Mike,
When Revelation talks about them being poor, blind and naked does that mean they are poor in spirit and blind to his word, and they have no righteousness for spiritual clothing?

You ask about Rev 3, and you are exactly right. Babylon actually believes that she... [read more]

Good morning my brother and Dearest Friend,
If anyone in this world needs to offer sacrifice to the Lord, I do. In that regard I began reading Leviticus (after reading your papers on the "offerings"). I must say that chapter 10 is full of surprises: 1) vs 1 Nadab and Abihu offered profane fire - 2C... [read more]

Mike,
Thank you for all your time helping me understand the way Adam was created. I pray you can help with this thought I'm having from this paper on the fall of man I just read. I agree God made Adam corruptible, from the dust of the ground, weak and naked. Here is where I'm confused: You said E... [read more]

Mike,
Ecc 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
Those that are spiritually alive (the living) know that they shall die (crucified with Christ). But the dead (spiritually dead) know not... [read more]

Mike,
How are you? I was hoping for some help on some verses in Gen 3. I hope this isn't too lengthy for you, but I am very interested to seeing your understanding of this. In Gen 3:4,5 - only verse 4 was a lie correct? verse 5 was true? Gen 3:7 - &... [read more]

Hi Mike!
Thanks for everything. I have a question. In your article "The seven steps toward salvation" (posted March 2, 2004) you pointed out the various steps:
One: Putting blood on the doorpost.
Two: Taking us through the sea of Baptism.
Three: Being tried in the wilderness.
Four: "The second ... [read more]

Hi L____,
Thank you for your question.
You ask, "was Christ resurrected in a spiritual body, and can you go into more detail and cite some scripture? Also, please comment on Luk 24."
I will be happy to do that for you.
Here is the foundational scripture for the fact that a resurrected body is not a ... [read more]

I am just utterly disgusted with myself after reading this paper Strong Delusion. How could I be so blind…. I got most of it, but why do you call this strong meat? - "But strong meat ["I am crucified WITH CHRIST"]?
I do not understand. I know the verse, and yes, believe it, but I now know I have ... [read more]

Hi Mike,
I read your letter on the above subject. I find it right on target. Because we would have to ask, why do we still die if Christ died in our place? It looks as if Rom. 5:12 states that we must also die for our own sins. "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, ... [read more]

No surprise in my minister's response to my departure letter. Here is part of what I wrote to him.
"As we have talked and you have known there is a growing difference between what the Lord has shown me to follow and what the church teaches. Looking back I now see why I have been ... [read more]

Hi J____,
Thank you for these questions. I hope to be able to clear this up for you, Lord willing.
You say:
"No substitutionary death - that is a great surprise. Now please, Mike, I am not arguing that you are wrong, but this is the first time I have heard this... and I want to make sure th... [read more]
