How the Gifts of the Spirit Function in the Church: Romans 12:7-8 Dec 10, 2017

Show notes

We look today at the gifts of teaching, exhortation, giving, mercy, leading and serving. To get a more biblical philosophy of the church. To understand how the gifts of the Spirit are to operate in a local fellowship of Christians. What astounds me as we look into Romans 12 is the universality of the gifts of the Spirit and the call to all of us to do our part in a godly way. This means that many believers today should probably be more involved in using these gifts than they already are. The pastor isn’t the only gifted person in the church! You too have gifts and a calling to use them! https://www.facebook.com/MikeWingerBibleThinker/ https://twitter.com/MikeWingerii http://www.hosannachapel.org/ http://biblethinker.tv/

Becoming a More Biblical Church: Romans 12:3-6 Dec 03, 2017

Show notes

Toward becoming more biblical about the gift of prophecy, humility and church in general. Often the debate is over whether the gifts are valid today and we stop short of asking, "but what does the Bible say about how they are to be practiced?" This results in some reckless attitudes toward things like the gift of prophecy. Although this message deals with humility and unity I really think some important and needful points are made regarding prophecy. This is info that our churches need today. I speak openly about Bill Johnson and Bethel Church in Redding, CA. But I do not do so out of spite or a lack of grace. I do so because of a desire to help them and the large number of churches around the world being impacted by the same issues I see coming from that ministry. We don't want to throw out the baby with the bathwater but it would be nice to get rid of the bathwater and to be a more biblical church.

Show notes

God Wants A Living Sacrifice: Romans 12:1 Nov 12, 2017

Perhaps we need to get out of our comfort zone and remember what God has called us to. What does it mean to be a living sacrifice? What inspires such devotion and what does it look like in our daily lives? It's time to get really practical about our worship.

To God Be The Glory: Romans 11:33-36 Nov 06, 2017

Show notes

A study of a humbling and healing worship passage in Romans. This song is beautiful in how it is the overflow of theology into worship. As we study it we learn how to humbly trust in God’s goodness, knowledge and wisdom. We take note of how important worship is in the Church as well as learning some priceless lessons about not thinking we know more than we do and letting God’s glory be our ultimate purpose.

About Replacement Theology: Romans 11:25-32 Oct 29, 2017

Show notes

What specific Old Testament prophecies about Israel are yet to be fulfilled? What expectations does the New Testament have for the future of national Israel? This study focuses on the biblical data at hand and avoids getting distracted by claiming that one side is anti-Semitic. Bible believing Christians are primarily concerned with what the text says rather than emotional arguments.

What Is God's Plan for ISRAEL: Romans 11:7-24 Oct 22, 2017

Show notes

This will require some thinking on your part. We are trying to get a careful, biblical and thoughtful understanding of God's plan for Israel as revealed in the Bible and in Romans 11 in particular. We need a biblical and balanced view of Israel. Romans 11 gives us just this. We see the fact that Israel rejected the Messiah. We see why they didn’t believe. We see that this failure is not universal. And we see that there is a glorious hope for their future! When you understand God’s gracious plan for Israel you see into the heart of God’s grace toward yourself as well.

God has NOT forsaken Israel: Romans 11:1-6 Oct 08, 2017

Show notes

After establishing that prophecy indicated Messiah would be rejected and that the Gentiles would come to believe in Yahweh through Him(in Romans 9 and 10) we come to the issue of Israel and their current relationship with God. The question is, "has God forsaken Israel?" And the answer is a big "no way!" Not only does this truth give hope for Israel, it gives us courage and hope in God's patient love for all who come to Him through the grace of Christ. In this study we will also take a look at 1 Kings 19 and hear a word of encouragement about facing discouragement from what Elijah went through.

Show notes

A verse by verse study through Romans 10:14-21 including a variety of related topics.

About people who NEVER hear the gospel Sep 24, 2017

Show notes

A transparent and thorough treatment of the question from a biblical perspective. Various issues are dealt with such as why people get judged in the first place, what all people should know, biblical examples of people who were saved without hearing the gospel, a rebuttal of universalism, how we ought not suppose that all religions offer a path to God, and how the reality of people responding to the gospel means that we need to be serious and vigilant in evangelism.
