Time to take this on the chin.

Today's Time Stamps:

0:00 - Intro
1. 0:01 {Failed Rapture Predictions} Learning the lesson: An autopsy of recent rapture predictions.
2. 1:16:42 {The Mortality of Adam & Eve} Is Adam and Eve's mortality a result of the poison in the forbidden fruit or the declaration of God in Genesis 2:17?
3. 1:19:57 {Ezekiel 37: 2 Separate Events?} In Ezekiel 37, Ezekiel is told to prophesy to dry bones, and they come together, but he had to prophesy again for them to come to life. Do you think this is referring to two separate events?
4. 1:23:05 {Honoring Tradition & Embracing Change} How can pastors balance honoring tradition with leading forward when influential members of the congregation resist technology, new ideas, and change?
5. 1:25:14 {The Value of Fallible Gifts} If all the gifts of the Spirit are subject to human fallibility, what is their true value for the Church? Why would God tell us to eagerly desire them if they can so easily be misused or misunderstood?
6. 1:27:33 {Repentance after Spiritual Drought} Do you have any advice for someone who was raised Christian, who professed faith and went to church but still lived a worldly and immoral lifestyle, then has recently come to Christ in repentance?
7. 1:29:17 {A “Word” from the Lord?} I go to a Calvary Chapel and there are a lot of “words” given to people. They’re not unbiblical but seem sort of vague, like I’m not able to test them. Should I only accept it if I can test it?
8. 1:32:46 {Gathering while Disabled?} In light of the Scripture that states not to forsake the gathering together, I am concerned about that because I am disabled, do not drive, and do not have consistent transportation to church. Advice?
9. 1:34:45 {Enoch & Elisha – In Heaven?} Enoch and Elisha are said to be in Heaven in the Old Testament. Why did Jesus say in John 3:13 that no one has gone to Heaven except Him?
10. 1:36:14 {Let’s Grow in Christ!} Can you please share a few suggestions, just for fun and faith-building, for us to do this weekend to grow in Christ (besides going to church)?

I'm taking questions from the live chat... here are the rules:

I do this live stream most Fridays at 1 p.m. Pacific Time. You're welcome to join.
To ask a question in a future session, you'll need to follow these instructions:
1. Don't post your question before you see me live on camera.
2. Post questions as comments in the LIVE chat at the beginning of the stream.
3. Post your question with "Q" at the beginning so we can easily identify that you are sending it in as a question for me and not just a comment in the chat.
4. Try to be as clear as possible so I won't misunderstand the question. Keep in mind that I don't know anything about your question other than what you type in that short comment.
5. Include specific verse references when possible or applicable.
6. Only one question submitted per subscriber, per stream, please. Submitting the same question into the chat a few times is OK.
7. Please understand that we don't strictly take the first 10 questions submitted. Our team takes several factors into consideration.
8. You can also check the "Clip Search" on BibleThinker.org in advance to see if your topic of interest has already been covered in a past session. I try not to answer the same questions over and over, so you may find what you need there.

Watch the full video if you can stomach it here.

Steve Koko, Solomon Kepkey, Gary York, John Mercier.

0:00 He should be in prison
14:53 Victim video
49:27 2nd Victim letter
59:09 Interview with whistleblowers
3:37:30 Torben Sondergaard testifies
4:16:00 Koko's public confession
4:39:19 My plea for help (conclusion)

It has taken months to gather this evidence and the testimonies of many people to expose Steve Koko. He calls himself "the Billy Graham of Panama," and he has done many outreach events and is well known in Latin American countries. But, there is a very dark side to him that must be exposed. We cannot allow someone to do what Steve Koko has done to multiple young women, who thought he was a man of God. Not only that, we need to expose the people behind the scenes who have worked to cover up for Steve Koko.

This is THE website for evidence and information about Steve Koko and the cover-up of his predatory behavior: Click Here
That site has far more evidence than I have even included in this long video.

Why is there a Rapture craze going on right now? I think it traces back to this mystery man, "Brother Joshua." He appeared out of nowhere about 3 months ago and said God took him to Heaven multiple times and Jesus told him the date of the Rapture.

Today's Time Stamps:

0:00 - Intro
1. 0:59 {Rapture Craze?} Can you address “Brother Joshua” and the current rapture craze?
2. 36:29 {PSA + Crucified WITH Christ?} How does the doctrine of Penal Substitutionary Atonement harmonize with us being “crucified with Christ” (Galatians 2:20, Romans 6:5-6)? The substitution element seems to be missing, and wrath seems confusing if we are to affirm crucifixion with Christ.
3. 40:57 {Pre-Wired to Sin?} Why are Adam and Eve guilty when the brains God gave them are what guided them to make their decision to sin? They processed the situation based on the way God had pre-wired them.
4. 44:15 {Eschatology in The Psalms?} Is it valid to interpret Psalms 42-49 as talking about the End Times (Tribulation in 42-44, Lamb’s wedding in 45, God’s reign/judgment and New Jerusalem with a river in 46-49)?
5. 50:00 {Obedience Leading to Hardship?} My walk with Christ feels harder the more I obey. I lost family, friends, and even my girlfriend. Sometimes I wonder if this is even worth it, yet I still long to stay faithful. Any advice?
6. 55:42 {Baptismal Regeneration: False Gospel?} Would you consider the teaching that baptism is necessary for salvation to be a "different gospel” (Galatians 1:6)? If not, how would you distinguish it from the Circumcision Party's false teachings?
7. 1:00:31 {Malachi 4: About Jesus?} Is Malachi 4:2 talking about Jesus? Some translations like NKJV vs. NASB seem to reference it differently.
8. 1:05:30 {Loving God Above Family} My husband is an unbeliever. He recently told me he can't be a believer because he idolizes me and our kids and couldn't love God more than us. Beyond praying, how can I address this biblically?
9. 1:09:14 {Church Membership but Rarely Attending?} I’m a youth pastor at my church, and several families at my church consider themselves members but are only present a few times per year due to weekend activities. Should we address this strongly?
10. 1:14:43 {Trusting God More in Prayer} I fully believe God never fails and His decisions are always right and good. But it's still hard not to feel like He's "let me down" when I pray SO hard for something and it doesn't happen. It feels like He's absent and it (ashamedly) makes me question the parts in Scripture where He invites us to ask and SAYS He'll act.
Bonus! 1:21:38 {Mike’s Favorite Christian Music} What are some of your favorite or best recommended Christian music artists and albums?

I also HIGHLY recommend you check out Frank Turek's video on Charlie Kirk. Frank was a true friend of Charlie's and shared more insights than I could possibly have from the outside looking in. It is HERE.

Today's Time Stamps:

1. 2:15 {Rapture Predictions} Are rapture predictions always bad?
2. 35:26 {Teaching Kids Theology} What are some easy ways to explain hard theological concepts to my son as he grows up? He’s only 9 months old right now, but I want to be ready.
3. 38:22 {Jesus’ Stripes vs. The Cross?} My former church claimed that Jesus' stripes specifically paid for our sickness, while the cross paid for the rest, using Isaiah 53:5 to support it. Is this biblical?
4. 41:14 {Paul & The Cretans} What point was Paul making in Titus 1:12 when he quoted a "prophet" who said “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, and lazy gluttons”?
5. 46:59 {Prenups Always Bad?} Is a prenuptial agreement ever biblical? My fiance’s parents want us to get one. In my opinion, prenuptial agreements undermine the permanence of marriage, its covenantal nature, trust, and unity.
6. 53:47 {Supporting Israel?} How do we know whether supporting what Israel is doing in Gaza is or isn't God's will?
7. 1:05:48 {The Moses Model: Biblical?} Given your Calvary Chapel background and current focus on church leadership structures vulnerable to abuse, how does the Moses Model ensure checks and balances on authority in the church?
8. 1:14:57 {Does History Really Repeat Itself?} With the death of Charlie Kirk, it feels like we are in times similar to the 60s. Is it biblical to think that history repeats itself, or is mankind just predictable?
9. 1:17:30 {What’s a Backslidden Christian?} What's a backslidden Christian? Is this the same as a Christian with thorny soil (Matthew 13, Mark 4, Luke 8)? And are they a slave to sin if they do sin? I'm afraid I'm this Christian.
10. 1:28:16 {Anxiety: Am I Doing Something Wrong?} I am a Christian and struggle with anxiety. It especially happens when I try to speak or when God is using me for something even around believers. It cripples me. Am I doing something wrong?

10 years ago the Supreme Court decided they could redefine marriage, to include same-sex couplings. What they did was legally wrong, morally wrong, and irrational.

Today it seems the tide is shifting. Good. But we need to know what was wrong with their actions and not just jump on the bandwagon of "that's not popular now."

Today's Time Stamps:

1. 0:02 {Flat Earth Use of Scripture} Do I still say that Flat Earthers misuse Scripture?
2. 22:11 {Why Some Reject & Some Accept Faith} Could you help me answer the Calvinist who asks what the difference is between a person who has faith and a person who rejects faith? If we are all equally sinful, why do some choose Christ?
3. 31:15 {Why My Prayer Isn’t Answered} How can I tell why a prayer hasn’t been answered? How do I know if I just have to wait longer, or if some sin is hindering my prayer, or if the answer is simply “no”?
4. 40:50 {The Bible: Chronological Order?} Is it helpful to read the Bible in chronological order?
5. 44:31 {The “Who” of Romans 7} Who is Paul talking about in Romans 7? Himself, some hypothetical believer, or someone else entirely?
6. 51:29 {Single but Living As Married} My fiancée moved in, is sleeping with me, using my credit card, is on my home title and health insurance, and we’re filing taxes jointly. But our wedding ceremony is not until 2027. I want to break up with her. Is that OK since we’ve made no vow yet before God?
7. 55:08 {Sin Before The Law} In Romans 5:13, what does it mean that sin was not counted against those before Moses gave the law? Did all those people receive eternal salvation?
8. 1:01:54 {Are You Reformed?} I think you've said that you consider yourself Reformed, and I wondered what you mean by that. What Reformed doctrines do you accept besides the ones that constitute basic orthodoxy?
9. 1:04:26 {Does Porn Disqualify from Ministry?} What are your thoughts on pastors struggling with porn/lust? Is it disqualifying? I stepped out of ministry to heal. Many ministers my age (23) struggle. Please pray. I’ve seen progress, but I still fight.
10. 1:10:05 {Evangelism amid Difficult Family Dynamics} What’s the appropriate way to navigate being an uncle and sharing the truth with nieces/nephews when your sibling doesn’t have a biblical worldview?
1:18:41 Bonus – Prayer Request: Can you please pray for my mom? She’s been diagnosed with breast cancer. Her prognosis looks good, but we are praying for God's miraculous and complete healing.
