10 Qs with Mike Winger: Who is the Rapture Prophet? (Ep 60) “Brother Joshua”
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.

Same-Sex Marriage 10 Years Later (it was always a disaster)
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." My website: https://BibleThinker.org

Reading all of Psalm 119 for your edification
Delight in God's Word. This reading is from the NET Bible. Unlike most translations, the NET allows for people to use it as much as they want without worrying about getting special permissions for quoting long sections. This is why I'm using it here. The copyright warnings of most modern translations forbid me from making this kind of video without approval from the publisher. My website: https://BibleThinker.org

Why does it feel like Satan won't leave me alone? 10 Qs with Mike Winger (Ep 53)
Today's Time Stamps: 1. 0:02 {Temptation Increasing vs. Satan Fleeing?} The Bible says when we resist the devil, he will flee (James 4:7). So why does it often feel like spiritual warfare INCREASES when we try to buckle down and resist sins of the flesh, addictions, etc.? When I resist, it doesn't feel like the devil flees - it feels like he tries even harder to get me to fall. Why is this?2. 12:17 {What is Blasphemy?} What is the biblical understanding of blasphemy?

Vineyard Pastor and False Prophet: My Warning about Micah Turnbo
Micah Turnbo, as of 5/3/2025 is a pastor/seer/prophet at Vineyard Northwest in Ohio. He teaches many people through online ministry and has more visions and supernatural experiences than anyone in the Bible, it seems. I'll share evidence that he is a false prophet, deceiver, and shares obviously false experiences and even teaches some things that contradict the Bible. Why do this? Because we are commanded to test all things. When someone has millions of eyes and ears on their prophecies and visi
