Q&A with Pastor Mike Winger

0:00 CAT CAM! and Introduction
1. 1:32 What are your views on the rapture, or being "caught up"?
2. 8:14 A friend of mine believes that Mark 16: 17-18 is a sign for true believers today, because Jesus also sent the 70 besides the apostles to do signs and wonders. Can you help me to help him?
3. 16:15 Do you have any advice for someone just starting out in ministry, especially as a missionary?
4. 17:51 What are your thoughts on 1 Corinthians 11, regarding women wearing head coverings while praying or prophesying? We only stopped in the later half of the 20th century.
5. 18:50 Could you do an in-depth study on believers committing deliberate sin and/or struggling with condemnation?
6. 21:01 What is a biblical view of entertainment?
7. 25:27 How can I trust manuscripts, especially ones from Alexandria?
8. 27:08 My friend recently said she "still feels the presence of her dead loved one." What is the biblical and loving response to this?
9. 29:20 I grew up a "Christian", but now, after trials which have caused me to turn to God in prayer, I have become more loving toward God and others. Was there a time when I may not have actually been saved, before this?
10. 30:40 If a person is genuinely suffering from gender dysphoria, and as a result, they dress as the opposite gender, are they living in sin? What can they do to overcome gender dysphoria?
11. 35:16 Can you please explain the Parable of the 10 Virgins in Matthew 25:1? What does the oil represent? Some say it represents the Torah, and others say it represents the Holy Spirit.
12. 40:11 What is your take on Jonathan Cahn and his books?
13. 40:29 What is the significance of Jesus' sacrifice being done through the eternal Spirit? Was Jesus separated from the Father?
14. 43:41 What is your interpretation of John 6: 44? What is the "drawing" here referring to?
15. 48:51 I am a school bus driver who is struggling to share Jesus with students, as it would be against school policy to do so. Is it more biblical for me to obey school policies, or to obey God's command to spread the Gospel?
16. 50:34 Can someone lose their salvation?
17. 52:49 Are "tongues" overrated? I grew up hearing that tongues were like a special status symbol to give you better access to God, but is that biblical?
18. 55:31 Some people say that not everyone can go to Heaven, because then, Heaven would be spoiled by bad people. But others say that by believing on Jesus, anyone can go to Heaven. Can these two be reconciled?
19. 57:25 How do you properly repent from a sin?
20. 58:26 Is having a more conscientious acknowledgement of God's presence unto repentance of sin a symptom of being indwelt by the Holy Spirit?

[@lindsey4178]

I've got a question I've been wondering about for a long time. If I understand the book of revelations correctly (and I could be wrong...probably wrong. Lol) wasn't it originally written as letters to different churches? If it was broken up into letters to specific groups of people why do we read it as one book? And how do we know the order if it wasn't a single document to begin with? Is there something I missed? Thanks so much! I know that new questions werent requested here but I missed the stream and really want to hear what Mike winger has to saying the subject.

GREAT session! I was born and grew up Pentecostal; generally a denomination leaning toward “ the gift of tongues” actually elevates and empowers a person b e y o n d the average Christian. I’ve seen many abuses and exaggerated behaviors over the years. When Paul says people not familiar with these practices will believe you to be crazy..he was speaking wisely! I’ve actually begun to question this gift in public use. When you see a “ prophet” misuse the gift, it’s time to reread what the scripture says. Omy.

Sarah Perman- I worked teaching English in a M*slim country. I wrestled with this question too as sharing my faith was wrong on many levels- m*ssion@ties were not allowed, “trying to convert” a minor was illegal, and I was hired to teach English. What I felt God led me to do was share when the opportunity clearly presented itself. This often happened on breaks when students came to talk to me outside, but once it happened in a classroom. One of the boys asked me why if I was a Christian and why I believed it was true. We were in the middle of an English lesson so I said we can talk about that later if you really want to know. Several other students chimed in and said we want to know too!! So I silently prayed for a minute, and felt strongly that I should take the opportunity. I then shared with the whole class and they hung on my every word. Paid more attention than they ever did to English lessons!! I was shaking but it was incredible! So I say, be yourself, be a light, but if that light you shine brings an opportunity for a student to talk to you further about your faith, prayerfully take the opportunity. And ask God for those opportunities! He WILL bring them to you :)

[@shawnahathaway4762]

WOW! You planted a lot of seeds all at once ... I don't know if it ultimately affected your job but I dare say even if it did it was so worth it! We have in us an ingrained knowledge and desire to know our creator and Savior. They were hungry and you fed them. How incredible will it be to see someone in heaven that you first introduced them to THE way, THE truth, THE life?? This gives me God-bumps!! 🙌

Sarah Perman: when I was a public school teacher, I wasn’t allowed to talk about my faith to children. I did start a prayer group before school and invited fellow teachers. Most said no! But as I was walking to prayer... after a while some staff would poke their heads out of their rooms and make a prayer request. :) You could ask other bus drivers you see how you may pray for them! Follow up and ask how life is going! Do your job with the love of God and both children and staff will see a difference. Be on time. Know the kids and be kind and caring. Smile!!!

For myself, God has been convicting me on how and with what I entertain myself. A verse that has come to mind continually- while I've wrestled - is from Philipians... what ever is true, noble, right, pure, etc. I think on the things that I watch and read, so how do those things shape my walk with Christ? Is it edifying and helping me focus on Christ? What you continually watch will have an effect on your daily life and views.

After becoming a believer the pre trib rapture fascinated me. So I dug in deep. I cam away doubting the rapture all together. Several year later, I dun into it again, rejecting the pre trib rapture all together. I have come to a pre wrath stance on the rapture. It is straight forward and very easy going this route.

[@squirreljones3595]

Yes, you're right, but there is absolutely a separate Resurrection for the church Matthew 24 36 Jesus says no man knows the day except the Father John 6 39-54 Jesus says at the Last day four times Jesus is Truth Jesus is talking about two Resurrections Revelation 20 shows two Resurrections One is called the First Resurrection One is at the Last day Revelation 21 shows no more days in New Jerusalem Jesus is Truth Keep the Faith Mystery Babylon added the church to the thousand year reign of Jesus There's no Bible Verses that promise the thousand year reign of Jesus to the church/bride Only the saints that overcome the Mark of the beast reign with Jesus Revelation 20 4 seven descriptions Revelation 2 & 3 seven letters LISTEN TO JESUS ONLY

[@ingela_injeela]

Jesus Himself tells us in Matthew 24 that the rapture happens "immediately AFTER the Tribulation", so He places the rapture Post Trib.

[@jubydevasia1268]

Sarah perman: my mom faced similar situation. She was an indian army nursing officer...she always preached the gospel to her patients, colleagues, seniors. Which resulted in many people coming to christ...so many. But there were some jealous people who complained about her and presented the case as force conversion to authorities. Senior most recieved the complain and a warning was sent to my mother. To my mother the souls of those people were more important than the persecution she would face. She was asked not to preach ...she told them if one person comes up and confesses that I force converted them I will agree to not preach. Also if anyone asks me to pray or asks the reason for my joy I will share .....and non of this will effect my efficiency at work. She remained at peace and continued loving, praying and encouraging many including the same people who complained against her. The consequence of that was, She lost her promotion but what she gained was all the souls and the same seniors who warned her....asked her secretly to pray for them. The senior who was responsible for rejecting my mother's promotion eventually got saved and apologised and tried everything to get her the promotion....but it was too late.:) The joy of suffering for her faith was so amazing for mom. But this was a special case ...my mom was so efficient in her work that they were very happy with her work and she was so gentle and loving that those same people eventually got transformed....she had special favour on her from god to do this. But non of this had any negative effect on anyone, their jobs or there reputation.... that she made sure. Not allowing anyone else to suffer because of her. So what I belive is our 1st priority is salvation of people but not at the cost of inefficiency at work or putting other people in danger. Eg acts 16:26 the prison open miraculously and the jailor thinks the disciples ran away....he in fear was about to take his life to realise no one left. That example is a good one not to cause danger to others in what we do. We need to continually pray and seek gods guidance. Each situation is different..we have to always think of others weither it is winning souls or protecting people from suffering from our actions.... not from selfish ambition! Hope it helps. Mike I really enjoy your vedios....often send the vedios to many. So helpful. Thank you.

[@makeapennycry]

Sarah Perman I used to work for a USDA state program I had many clients that often needed a word and encouragement. I wore a name badge. I attached the badge to a necklace that was a thin leather string with a small three nails attached at the end. It was a good conversation starter and sent them the message that I was a believer. I found I didn’t really need to “solicit” my beliefs which would’ve been a sore point for my employers. The clients would come to me and then I can share freely. Also my children attend a recreation center that states no soliciting which includes religion, however that does not mean they cannot praise the Lord and proclaim what God has done for them, an excellent way to share the gospel.

Hi Pastor Mike. Just found you April 2024; am very much enjoying your intelligent, inciteful teaching and your pleasant, winsome personality!!!

[@ruthannmckalip2654]

Sarah Perman. I work at a community college. I have plaques on my desk with scripture, wear a simple cross daily, and give God the glory whenever a student thanks me ("It's God in me" or "God gifted me with the skills for this job!"). I volunteer to serve on committees. I'm always helpful when I can be. Everyone on campus who knows I'm a Christian. And I pray for chances to share my faith with coworkers. You can do these things!

[@jessi__jack]

Sarah Permin I have this same predicament working in nursing homes in Australia. I clean 30 elderly resident’s rooms everyday, and I find it so difficult to not be able to share my faith with them due to certain guidelines we have to follow. A lot of them are not saved and obviously in their latter years of life, hence I feel the urgency to do something. I’ve found that a great way of being a light is to first and foremost do your job well and be interactive with them and get to know the kids on your bus! You can lead by example and show a difference through your actions of good work ethic and kindness. Another big thing that we as Christians can tend to do is underestimate the power of prayer! Pray for the children on your bus everyday! I pray for each resident when I walk into their room to clean and God has given me opportunity to drop some subtle bread crumbs through my residents sharing information with me like “I believe in God” and I get to tell them that I do to. But I wait for them to share and ask me questions before sharing openly with them due to not wanting to overstep the guidelines. It’s a tough one to handle and I’m praying that God gives you wisdom on how to interact with these children whilst being a light to them! 💕

[@gerrydixon619]

Mike, we sure do know when the catching away happens for the living believers. We are told in John 6:54, that those who 'eat my flesh and drink my blood,' Jesus will raise up AT THE LAST DAY. The phrase 'last day' in Greek ix eschatos and means final day in time, so that has to be at the return of Christ.

[@ingela_injeela]

Yes, many references to the Resurrection being "on the Last Day".

[@KellyeR1970]

I was pre trib for a long time until saw Sam Shamoun talk about how none of the early churches taught it and it was not even a thing till 1830 with the introduction of Scofield Bible translation and it was in the commentary footnotes. That really got me thinking and started looking into the prewrath theory and that actually seems to be way more biblical. Pretrib you really have to read into things in scripture that just aren't there. I think we will be here for the tribulation but we will be caught up before God pours His wrath on the wicked. I know feel much more prepared and no longer just waiting to waiting around to be secretly taken up before anything really bad happens. It says Jesus will not come back until the man of sin is revealed. Its also we will go through persecution and tribulation.....but are not appointed to Gods wrath.

[@hartleyhare251]

Hi. I've been looking into this idea that the pretrib wasn't around before 1830, in fact, I've discovered it has been taught right from the days when Paul was writing his letters. Looking at this video, it's interesting how arguments like 'it's just not there in scripture" easily applies to both (in fact all 3 views), which is why we have the different views. The overarching theme of Christianity for the past 2000 years has been that the world will become worse and worse with a tribulation period ending things. The Left Behind series may be popular, but it's not a mere invention. It's complicated, isn't it?

[@Maria-pf5it]

This teaching that the pretribulation rapture idea got its start in 1830 is in error. If you read some of the early church "fathers" and writing you see they also spoke of it

Sarah: "It's good to share the gospel, , and sometimes even use words". In other words...your love for your neighbors ( the children and parents), the way you act, treat others and your actions and honesty is a great example of the gospel! Let your light shine and you will be sharing the gospel w/o even preaching!! I hope that helps!!! :)

[@MT-vz5rg]

It's always good to live out our faith, as an example to others, and many times people will notice the difference in us. However, that in and of itself, is not the gospel. Sharing the gospel requires us to tell people about Jesus and what He did for us all. If we proclaim the gospel that saves is only about the way we act and live, we would be leading many people astray.

[@jacquiblu7108]

@@MT-vz5rgthe point is that Sarah (& many others) arent able to verbalize the gospel. She was asking how she could handle a situation at work where she wants to share the gospel but doesn't want to get in trouble by doing so...

[@ReachOutMinistries]

I can tell you by experience that being in a place where you can't share your faith is troublesome to your soul. Perhaps finding other outlets where you can after work can help. Wearing a cross or having a scripture on your desk (if permitted) is another means of letting folks know you are available.

[@julieredmond5192]

How about “Stump the Pastor”...? Mike, I had this idea for my pastors several years ago. What if once a month we had an event at the church where non Christians could come and ask a pastor their most confusing questions about God, Christianity and the Bible? I felt like a lot of people might come. Of course there would be trolls and rabble rousers that might show up. But we could say “No rotten egg or tomato throwing.” I really thought it would draw some people. I thought We could advertise on social media, the website, local papers......maybe even flyers and posters placed around town. I really thought it was a good idea.....but alas they never did it. And we had two pastors, which would help if one got stumped. That’s my best idea for the Q & A title. Because I think we want to draw unbelievers who have sincere questions. “Stump the pastor” It’s a wholesome challenge!

[@thrawl]

Sarah Perman I teach both Jews and Muslims at a college in Israel. Because of my ethnic features students sometimes ask me if I'm Jewish. Because the answer is no, it opens the door to questions. Witnessing isn't possible but if students or other teachers ask questions I answers. This might be a good rule of thumb: answer if you are asked, otherwise be the "fifth gospel" (and pray for the people you meet daily at work). God bless you all!

[@ByTheSpirit84]

I realize I'm 3 years late to this party, but I'd like to comment on 48:51 I think it's important for such matters, to live as holy and righteously as possible. Let your conduct open doors for people to "Ask you of the hope that is within you" (1 Peter 3:15) and truth be told, in today's society, how you live your life will say so much more about the power and truth of the gospel than what you say. There's a million and one "preachers" of the gospel in the world today, but how many actually live it? Be the one who lives it! Let your conduct draw people to the Savior! Be salt and light!

Concerning the question about losing salvation I always come back to what Jesus says when he says “Depart from me, I never knew you.” He doesn’t say “I once knew you and now I don’t”, or “I forgot you” but that he never knew these people. I believe when you are saved you truly have a sincere change of heart and the Holy Spirit indwells you and the scriptures (forgive me I forget where) talks in different passages throughout the Bible that darkness cannot fellowship with light, when a light comes on the darkness flees. We still make mistakes and sin but the Holy Spirit is the rock within us that convicts and speaks to us from continuing to pursue an evil path, even if we may give in the flesh for a season in an area, the Holy Spirit let’s us feel that guilt and that our fellowship with God isn’t where it should be. Just like a marriage. Me and my husband might go through a season where our fellowship isn’t where it should be, but we aren’t divorced. I have never read anything that says the Holy Spirit will leave you and divorce you if you sin this much or, etc. And I believe those who reject Christ never knew him to begin with. There are people out there who are “fans” of Jesus, but not true followers. Kind of unrelated but similar to this is why I believe true followers can be oppressed by demons- but not possessed. A demon cannot own and inhabit and control the very home that the Holy Spirit lives, the two would not be able to live together in the body at the same time.

Aww, so glad God could use me to touch the heart of a sister in Christ 😊❤️ Grace and peace to you!

[@AllThanksToJesusChrist]

Totally agree with your comment!! I actually started reading this book by Bryan Chapell titled “In The Grip Of Grace. When you can’t hang on” and goes over Romans 8 and says exactly what you’re saying!!!

[@cel0837]

Brother, I am blessed on this comment. I actually believe that we don't lose salvation but I don't have full clarity yet. Your statement gave me clarity and I believe this is led by the Holy Spirit. I always say that doubting our salvation is bad, but the right action should be evaluating our faith in our lives. My first statement is really dangerous because never doubting our faith but not evaluating our faith in our lives will not lead to repentance. Because they are fully believed they are saved while still living in sin. I should also repent because I have said it to my friends and family. Thank you brother and ultimately thank God for revieling the truth to me.

From my understanding according to Matthew 24 Jesus comes back after the tribulation. New subscriber here! Love your videos!

I agree, looks like he comes after the 6th seal then after the 7th seal he opens his wrath on the earth

[@chargreen9940]

Sarah Permin...I was a teacher for 20 years. I sponsored a bible club in 2 different districts. We were allowed to meet before or after classes officially started because it was not class time/official school day time (just the same as kids could be shooting hoops in the gym before the first bell rings because school hasnt actually started yet). It would seem that during the bus route (before and after school) would fall into that category as well. Also, any time a student began the conversation I was allowed to answer. In other words, I could not approach a student and initiate the conversation but I do have Constitutional protection to believe what I believe and when questioned to answer honestly about my faith.

[@jasonyoder5219]

Friday: "Just Winging It" with Mike Winger. Hi Mike I love your show. We don't agree on everything and that is fine, but I don't question your salvation. Why are there some people that I don't agree with leave an uncomfortable feeling that they just don't have a relationship with Christ?

[@jobrown8146]

Thank you for sharing your cat with us. She's gorgeous. It made me smile. Earlier this year I had to have my 21y old cat euthanised. She wasn't sick; her body just wore out.

[@megannason3649]

Aww, when you’re ready, I find it helpful to get another kitty if you haven’t already. The new kitty will never replace the old, but it helps your heart heal and brings that love and something to cuddle back into your life.

Fridays with Mike!

[@jeffmiller2396]

Mike, I agree. I'm glad to hear another pastor say, "I don't know" about the timing of the rapture (pre, mid or post trib). It seems most people take a hard stance when the Bible really isn't clear on that.

[@ImCarolB]

I appreciate your explanation of our relationship to our dead loved ones. I hear so many Christian friends talk about their loved one being their angel who watches over them, how they sense their presence, and even talk to them as if they are there. I believe they are still grieving and cannot let go of them. I see this so much more often in the last few decades and think it is due to new age ideas becoming accepted in our culture.

[@TheDlaw84]

Thanks for answering my question on the rapture Pastor Mike. Another thing we agree on. I would like to see you do an in depth on the rapture and end times. God bless you brother.

[@dipieterse6749]

In the meantime we can learn more about the rapture from other raptures recorded in scripture. .. Enoch (Gen 5:24)... Elijah (2 Kings 2)... Philip was raptured from the Ethiopian and deposited somewhere else(Acts 8:26-40)... Jesus at the transfiguration (Matt 17:2 interesting to note that Peter knew who Moses and Elijah were even though they weren't introduced... We'll know each other's names just like that! ) Rapture is not a new concept in the New Testament.

[@johnbmx4christ]

it's funny that he said he didn't know yet when he read the scripture he said at the last coming when jesus comes back is when the rapture is.

[@calebhowlett5116]

The truth will set you free

[@MrMan-jf8yi]

Sarah Perman. Here's my take and approach. I ask the Lord to bring opportunities to share my faith with others and then wait on Him to stir up my heart to these opportunities. If the Lord is leading, you can trust Him to keep you from stumbling. Sometimes we are so eager to share that we get into a works mode and go ahead of the Lord. Hope this helps.

“Pastors answering your questions” I’ve definitely seen a lot of people inclined to click on that tittle especially when they use the title of the credential “pastor” anything with pastor in my opinion will draw a lot of people to be interested in it

[@technicmechanic117]

Amir Tsarfati has many videos of revelation and the rapture. It makes the most sense and explains alot of the Christian environment that I grew up in. JD Farag is another one that knows the Bible and does an AWESOME job explaining !

[@ingela_injeela]

JD Farag is someone we should absolutely NOT listen to. He has just gone waay off the prophecy rocker. Also, he calls those of us who don't believe the *timing* of the rapture happens pre trib, " *satanic* "!

[@codyalexander3290]

I definitely believe in mid trib

[@ingela_injeela]

We know from Daniel that the Abomination of Desolation happens at the midpoint of the seven years. And Jesus says in Matthew 24 that the rapture happens immediately AFTER the TRIBULATION of those days. So that makes it very hard to fit a rapture somewhere in the middle of that. Plus, we have many references to the resurrection being "on the Last Day" .

The ending of Mark. The main question is, "is this teaching found elsewhere in scripture?" And the answer is a resounding, "Yes, and amen!" It might not be in the earliest manuscripts we have of Mark but it is all biblical teaching. It is not uninspired teaching even if Mark was not inspired to write it himself. It just appears that people read Mark after the apostolic age and added teaching from the other gospels or the letters of Paul.
