October 09 Why Speaking in Tongues is So Important To Me
Why does Dr. Michael Brown pray in tongues—sometimes for hours? He walks through 1 Corinthians 14, why he nearly abandoned tongues for academic respectability, and how God restored that fire. You’ll see how praying in the Spirit builds him up, deepens communion, and often leads into travail and clearer direction from the Lord.

October 08 Why Don't the Rabbis Believe in Jesus?
If Jesus is really the Messiah, why don’t the rabbis believe in him? Dr. Michael Brown gives a fair answer: some rabbis have come to faith, but most never ask the question, often know only caricatures of Yeshua, and work from a tradition-shaped definition of Messiah that screens him out.

October 07 Has the Church Always Been Israel? Septuagint vs New Testament Ekklesia
One of the strongest-sounding arguments from replacement (or “fulfillment”) theology says the church has always been Israel—so how can the ekklesia replace the ekklesia? Dr. Michael Brown walks through Septuagint examples where kahal becomes ekklesia, then shows why Acts 7:38 doesn’t settle the debate. You’ll see how New Testament usage specializes the word for followers of Jesus—and why saying the ekklesia has always been the ekklesia is still replacement theology by another name.

October 01 Responding to Your Comments about the Divine Messiah
Dr. Brown answers your comments about a divine Messiah in the Tanakh point by point. He tackles Gospel authorship, Psalm 72 versus Solomon, Isaiah 9:6 and Hezekiah, Jeremiah 23:6 and the divine name, and whether a sin-prone king can save Israel. Open your Hebrew Bible, follow the text with him, and see for yourself what the Scriptures actually say about Moshiach.

September 29 Is Charismatic Faith Built on a Miracle Crutch?
Do charismatics lean on miracles like a crutch to keep believing? Dr. Michael Brown flips that charge and walks you through John 14:12, Acts 2, 1 Corinthians 12–13, and James 5 to show why gifts and healing should still be normative. You’ll see why fewer miracles actually challenge charismatic faith rather than prop it up—and how word-based believers keep pressing in until Jesus returns.

September 25 Two Comings in Three Verses: Isaiah 52 and Rabbinic Witness
Have you ever been told that the Hebrew Bible never speaks of two comings of the Messiah—that Christians invented a second coming to cover for Jesus’ “failed” mission? In this teaching you’ll open Isaiah 52:13–15 and see both the Messiah’s terrible suffering and His ultimate exaltation in just three verses. You’ll walk through Targum Jonathan, Yalkut Shimoni, and other rabbinic sources that identify these verses as messianic, then see why only Yeshua fits the prophetic timeline before the Temple’s destruction. Watch and weigh in—does the Tanakh really leave room for one Messiah with two comings?

September 24 Is Replacement Theology Hiding in Your Bible Translation?
Are modern Bible translations quietly inserting replacement theology into the text—sometimes without even a footnote? Dr. Michael Brown walks you through Psalm 87 and Galatians 6:16, showing where versions like the CEV, NIV, and NLT add “Zion,” erase “Israel,” or rewrite the verse so the church replaces Israel. You’ll see what the Hebrew and Greek actually say, why comparing translations matters, and how to spot interpretive bias that fuels replacement theology. Don’t let a mistranslation shape your theology—check the text for yourself.

September 23 What Was Paul's Thorn in the Flesh?
What exactly was Paul’s thorn in the flesh—sickness, spiritual attack, or something else entirely? Dr. Michael Brown walks you through 2 Corinthians 12 and the Greek theme of weakness that runs through both Corinthian letters. You’ll see why extreme persecution fits the text best, and how God’s power is made perfect when you’re weak. Lean into this lesson on grace, humility, and finding strength only in Him.

September 17 Seventy Weeks of Daniel: Jesus, the Temple, and the 70th Week Debate
Wondering how Daniel 9:24–27 points to Jesus before the Second Temple fell? Dr. Michael Brown walks you through the seventy weeks, the six prophetic requirements, and why that timeline lands before 70 AD. You'll also hear a caller's seven-decade calendar theory for the 70th week—and why Dr. Brown rejects treating that final week as a different kind of time.

September 15 Jesus Is Israel? Testing Replacement Theology in Scripture
Have you heard the claim that Jesus is Israel, and that all of God’s purposes for the Jewish people are now fulfilled in Him alone? Dr. Michael Brown tests that replacement-theology slogan against Jesus’ own words, Romans 9–11, John 15, and Isaiah 49. You’ll see why you cannot simply swap “Jesus” for “Israel” in Scripture, and how the Messiah, who is called Israel, is sent to restore Jacob, not to cancel Israel’s remaining promises.
