  • 16 years ago
  • Mike, Taken from last Sunday's study... "But just as the law of Moses is so often mistaken for the law of God, so too, those who subscribe to that law of bondage, as we all have in the past, are easily mistaken for the body of Christ. The Truth is that when we were in Babylon we hated the truths tha... [read more]

  • Hi Mike, Does ceasing from your works mean that you come to the understanding that God really works all things after the counsel of his will? Thanks, D____ Yes, D____, It does mean that.

  • Israel and Strangers

  • 16 years ago
  • Mike, I am trying to understand naturally and spiritually why a distinction is made in Deuteronomy here between the Israel and the stranger in the gates. Israel is commanded not to eat of that which dies of itself, but it is okay to give or sell to the stranger in the gates. In Lev 17:15 the thing t... [read more]

  • The New Testament Versus The Old

  • 16 years ago
  • Hi Mike, I was reading through the Law paper again, and I had a thought on some of these differences. My observation is that I see clearer and clearer just how different the two laws are.

  • Christs Words Versus His Law

  • Hi Mike, I had a question about Matthew chapter 5.  I read your paper the Law of Moses vs. The Law of the Spirit. Thank you for that paper. It was the best I've encountered on that topic.

  • Marriage and Being Unequally Yoked

  • 16 years ago
  • Sir, I am a fairly new believer in salvation for everyone. I have a very important question that has been bothering me. I am currently married to a "Christian."

  • Gods True Name

  • 16 years ago
  • Hi Mike, Did you ever heard about the Hebrew name for our Lord Jesus Christ is IEUE and or Alueim. I never heard of it, but maybe you have. R____ Hi R____, I have certainly heard of it!

  • To Give Account Of Every Idle Word

  • 16 years ago
  • Mike, I forget what verse it is, but doesn't Christ say man shall give an account of every idle word? What does this mean? is it literal? I know we give an account every day. J____ Hi J____, You ask what is meant by 'giving an account of every idle word?' The important thing to notice here is that t... [read more]

  • A Sweet Smelling Savor Offering

  • 17 years ago
  • Thanks Mike, I think perhaps you would be much better suited to make certain determinations than I. You know all the verses, and you know very well the sacrifices and offering under the Levite priesthood system. You know Jesus was and is a priest of a different order- Heb 7:11 Now if it was possib... [read more]

  • What Christian Customs Are Not Lawful?

  • 17 years ago
  • Hi Mike, I was hoping you could help me understand Act 16:21: Act 16:21 And set forth customs which it is not lawful for us to receive, or to observe, being Romans. Two words trouble me: 1. customs - does this pertain to the law since they say "it is not lawful" for us to receive? What customs are t... [read more]
