Summary

Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference:1. 0:26 {Prophecy Always Positive?} Is the gift of prophecy always supposed to yield a positive, uplifting revelation? 2. 20:38 {Praying Over Things?} What are your thoughts on praying over a house or object? Is that superstition?3. 24:23 {Giving Time vs. Money?} Is it ever OK to give time instead of money to church? How do we balance giving vs. saving, especially if giving might cause debt (Mark 12:41-44, Romans 13:1-8)? I also have a family to provide for.4. 31:18 {Parable of the Wedding Feast} Can you please explain the parable in Matthew 22:1-14 (The Parable of the Wedding Feast)? I don’t understand the meaning.5. 40:06 {Should I Be Rebaptized?} I fell out of the faith years ago and recently came back and feel like I should get baptized again. Is there anything for or against this in the Bible?6. 47:26 {Is God Selfish?} Do you believe that God is selfish in everything He does? It seems even His "selfless" acts are done for His own sake (Psalm 106:8, dying on the cross for His own glory, etc.). Would that motivation be wrong?7. 56:56 {Is Baptismal Regeneration Heresy?} Is believing that baptism is for the remission of sins based on Acts 2: 38 heresy? Is someone who was thusly baptized then not saved?8. 1:11:49 {Sinful Vows: Binding?} Are vows made in sin or amidst sinful circumstances still binding in eyes of God (Ecclesiastes 5:5, Joshua 9, Genesis 27, Judges 12)?9. 1:16:29 {Isaiah 14: About Satan?} Is Isaiah 14:3-20 about Satan? It says it is to the King of Babylon, but I have heard verses 12-14 used in reference to Satan. Just curious about your thoughts on it!10. 1:24:02 {Did David Violate Deut. 24?} How was David able to take Michal back as his wife? Isn’t that a violation of Deuteronomy 24, and does that apply today?

My name is Mike Winger.

0:08.0

I'm here to try to help you learn to think biblically about everything.

0:11.0

And that means tackling every question that we can tackle from the perspective of,

0:16.0

hey, does scripture inform us on this?

0:17.0

Does God speak to this topic?

0:19.0

And can we, fallible humans, try to understand that and it'll help us be this? Does God speak to this topic? And can we, fallible humans, try to understand that,

0:23.1

and it'll help us be better? So the first question for today is the topic of prophecy.

0:31.7

Let me read it to you. Is the gift of prophecy always supposed to be positive? Is it always supposed

0:36.3

to be a positive, uplifting

0:37.7

type thing when you share somebody, something that you believe God has shows you, a word of

0:42.5

knowledge, a word of wisdom, something prophetic, anything in that category. Is it always supposed

0:47.2

to be positive? Now, the reason why I bring this up is for a few reasons. One, I do believe

0:53.1

that there is such a thing as the Holy Spirit giving somebody a word.

0:58.0

Now, there are Christians, real Christians, my brothers and sisters in Christ, who disagree on this

1:02.0

on varying levels.

1:03.3

There's different views.
