    For Ten Years He Got Away With It: The Fake Prophet and His Enablers

    Ten years ago, Gary Morgan was caught red-handed and bad pastors covered up for him. Solid evidence of fake prophecy and even email fraud. But he got away with it and the godly Christians who tried to call him out were vilified and abused by their pastors. Bill Johnson knew about Gary Morgan and still went and did ministry with him. Che Ahn had endorsed Gary as a great prophet like Shawn Bolz (I'm not making this up). Yet, Che's system of accountability not only failed to protect people from Gary, leaders in his network attacked the only people calling for him to be dealt with biblically. This video will have the evidence, and I mean a TON of evidence, showing not only that Gary is guilty but that other pastors have been lying in order to protect him. I pray this video vindicates Nathaniel and Hayley from the lies that have been told about them for the past ten years. I also pray that it rightfully exposes not only Gary Morgan but the people who have lied to protect him. People like Peter McHugh, who I confronted on video and caught in several lies. The broader Charismatic church needs reform and a renewed commitment to truth and biblical handling of the gifts. I pray this video helps make that a reality. Dear Charismatic brothers and sisters of mine, I know that my name is mud in many of your circles now. I know that I can be seen as a wrecking ball, meddler, accuser of the brethren, or otherwise someone who has evil motives, has "gone too far," or just isn't doing this right. I just want you to know that I do this because I believe in you. Please prove me right.

    The dangerous trend of fake prophets on YouTube: 10 Qs with Mike Winger (Ep 76)

    Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference: 0:00 - Intro 1. 0:52 {Fake Prophecies: How To!} How to make money from giving fake prophecies on YouTube. 2. 29:50 {Christians = Pushovers?} Where's the line between graciousness/meekness and tenacity in everyday life situations (such as a store manager not giving me a refund I'm rightfully due, or a restaurant stating no available seating despite me calling in advance and being told “yes” before driving all the way there)? I'm left feeling guilty when I push for what's right, but are we supposed to be pushovers? 3. 36:30 {Tithing: A Universal Obligation?} Does Abram’s tithe to Melchizedek support that tithing is a universal moral obligation since that passage is pre-law and Melchizedek is a type of Christ? 4. 48:17 {Discerning the Spirit Realm} Coming out of the NAR where everything is over spiritualized, how would someone know if they are actually seeing into the spirit realm or if they need to see a doctor for psychiatric help? 5. 51:55 {Was Jesus Poor?} I can’t imagine Jesus depending on others for money. Didn’t Jesus work as a carpenter for over 15 years before He started His ministry at age 30? He was probably good at it, so wouldn’t He have had His own money? 6. 56:49 {Finding Biblical Definitions} How do laypeople go about finding reliable definitions of specific terms in the Bible, specifically like the word “works” in the book of James? 7. 59:39 {Removing Our Ego from Our Worship} Do you have any advice on how I can get out of my own head while worshiping? I play bass on Sundays, and my ego always tries to take over. 8. 1:01:47 {Ezekiel 44-46: Who is The Prince?} Who is the prince referred to in Ezekiel 44-46? I’ve heard it explained as Jesus during the Millennial Kingdom, but that doesn’t make sense given that he must sacrifice sin offerings. 9. 1:10:24 {Learning to Choose Diligence} What advice would you give someone who wants to change, but keeps choosing laziness instead? 10. 1:14:31 {For When You’re Feeling Condemned} How do you explain to someone that is saved and still messes up (sins) that they are still going to Heaven if they have trusted Christ for salvation? Here's my video on Melchizedek and Jesus: Click Here Here's the one on Brandon Biggs (who I consider a dangerous fake prophet): Click Here This is the James Goll video (who I think used political speculation as fake prophecy): Click Here My website: https://BibleThinker.org Bring your own questions to the live chat (put a Q at the beginning of the live chat comment and try to make it something that could be easily understood and include important references)

    Vivek's Pagan Jesus Isn't Jesus: 10 Qs with Mike Winger (Ep 75)

    Bring your own questions to the live chat (put a Q at the beginning of the live chat comment and try to make it something that could be easily understood and include important references). Today's Time Stamps: 0:00 - Introduction 1. 0:14 Does Vivek Ramaswamy have a biblical view of Jesus and the Gospel? 2. 16:15 Is Genesis 1:3 the moment Lucifer was made (Morning Star, first creation, first worker, Genesis 1:31 jealous of mankind, new standard very good)? Please also see Ezekiel 28:11, Genesis 3:1, Isaiah 14:12, Luke 10:18. 3. 24:22 The Parable of the Laborers (Matthew 20) says we get the same reward in Heaven, but the Parable of the Tenants (Matthew 25:14-30) says we get different rewards based on our works. How do we reconcile this? 4. 34:38 Why do Christians continue the tradition of using "LORD" for YHWH in modern translations, and why isn't this practice blasphemous or wrong as groups like the Jehovah’s Witnesses would argue? 5. 42:33 In Acts 19:5-7, it says there were 12 men in total that began prophesying and speaking in tongues. How does this align with Paul’s direction to limit tongues to 2 or 3 people in 1 Corinthians 14:27? 6. 51:42 J. Warner Wallace talks about sanctification as a long hallway between justification and glorification. If some people still make it to glorification without the hallway, why is it necessary at all? 7. 55:28 Hey Mike, what does it mean to "not provoke your children to anger"? Scripture instructs us to discipline our kids, and Hebrews 12:6 allows for the use of punishments, so what counts as provoking? 8.58:44 I do TikTok lives reading Scripture and sharing insights I've found. But does 1 Timothy 2: 11-15 make this sinful for me as a woman? I truly want to know how to please God. 9. 1:01:38 I recently came to Christ and since have been on fire for Christ. My wife has been a Christian all her life and often compares her walk to mine and wonders why she doesn't have the same fire. Advice? 10. 1:05:53 This might sound weird, but sometimes thinking of God as perfectly good and loving makes me doubt. Can we really be so lucky to have the best-case scenario God?

    Not the update I wanted to bring: 10 Qs with Mike Winger (Ep 74)

    Today's Time Stamps: 0:00 - Intro 1. 2:06 {Cover-Up Culture Continues} How leaders we exposed are still covering up. 2. 1:02:03 {About “3rd Wayism”} I have great admiration for believers like Gavin Ortlund & Alisa Childers. The two come down on different sides on the idea of “3rd Wayism,” both for very biblically compelling reasons. It’s actually a bit frustrating! What are your thoughts on these competing postures? Can you offer up a 4th way? 3. 1:06:17 {Donald Trump’s Recent Statements} Will you please address recent issues and blasphemous statements surrounding President Donald Trump? 4. 1:14:31 {Why Store Up Treasure in Heaven?} The Lord talked about storing treasures in Heaven (Matthew 6:19-21). Why does that matter? Isn't being able to stay in Heaven enough? 5. 1:18:20 {John 1 – What is “The Light”?} Does John 1:9 mean that literally everyone ever born has witnessed "the light" (Jesus)? Is this "light" perhaps the same thing referenced by Paul in Romans 1:20? 6. 1:23:42 {Physical Bodies in Heaven: Why?} My friend asked, what is the significance of a physical body in the resurrection (no marriage)? I know there's more to having a body than reproduction, but I’m curious of your thoughts. 7. 1:27:49 {Understanding the Tower of Babel} I would love to hear a simple explanation of the Tower of Babel. I’ve never once heard a pastor teach it. Could you briefly explain what is going on there? Is it meant to be historically accurate? 8. 1:35:57 {How to Challenge Your Pastor’s Teaching} I’m unsure of how to raise a concern: my pastor’s sermon points, while not unbiblical, don’t seem to reflect the passage’s plain meaning. He’s the only pastor/elder. What should I do? 9. 1:40:05 {Command vs. Conscience?} Could you help me to better reconcile Acts 15:28-29 with 1 Corinthians 8:10? Acts makes it seem like a necessary command from the Spirit, but later it seems like a conscience issue. 10. 1:52:33 {Dating: How Important Are Feelings?} Is it wise to enter into a relationship with a person who is godly, a really good Christian, and logically looks like a good idea, but there is a lack of feelings/emotions toward that person? My big video on how Shawn Bolz that led me down the rabbit hole into discovering Cover-up Culture: Click Here These issues are NOT resolved. The problem has not gone away. Here's the controversial bit from Jenn Johnson of Bethel Music: Click Here My video on Che Ahn lying to me (and you): Click Here My video on Chris Reed: Click Here My video on Micah Turnbo: Click Here My video on Steve Koko: Click Here My video on Todd White: Click Here https://BibleThinker.org

    Are images of Jesus breaking the 2nd commandment? 10 Qs with Mike Winger (Ep 73)

    Answering questions from the live chat after the stream begins (not before). How the book of Acts handles Jews and Gentiles obeying the law and rituals of the OT: Click Here Here's the controversial bit from Jenn Johnson of Bethel Music: Click Here Today's Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1. 1:08 {Images of Jesus: Idolatrous?} Are images of Jesus breaking the 2nd Commandment? 2. 32:44 {Nathan: A False Prophet?} Did Nathan prophesy falsely when he told David to build the temple (2 Samuel 7), specifically when he says “the Lord is with you”? 3. 37:43 {Bad Things: Always Spiritual Warfare?} How much should we attribute things to spiritual warfare? I know some who say almost anything bad that happens is warfare, especially when leading up to or following good things in life. 4. 45:23 {Different Churches & Matthew 18?} With a narcissistic family member from whom I experienced abuse, if they deny wrongdoing and I don’t attend the same church, would Matthew 18 still apply? What would be the best path? 5. 50:44 {Greek gods Assignment: Idolatry?} My 11-year-old son refused to create a poster in school on a Greek god, feeling it was too idolatrous, and speaks out for Jesus in class. I love his boldness for Christ, but would you consider this idolatry? 6. 52:23 {Millennial Kingdom: Festivals Then & Now} People quote Ezekiel 44:24, Zechariah 14:16-21, and Leviticus 23:41 to say we will continue to celebrate the appointed festivals in the Millennial Kingdom. So why would we stop now and celebrate Easter, etc.? 7. 1:00:26 {Emotional Intentionality & Scripture?} Is there a way to make Scripture affect you emotionally so you become encouraged, or do you just have to wait for God to do that in your heart? 8. 1:05:25 {Apostles: 12 or 13?} In Acts 1:21-23, the Apostles select Matthias to replace Judas as the 12th Apostle. Later on, Paul becomes an Apostle. Was Matthias replaced as an official Apostle or were there then 13 Apostles? 9. 1:14:27 {Polygamy in Song of Solomon?} I want to receive from Song of Solomon, but it is difficult for me because it looks like the context is polygamy (Song of Solomon 6:9). What do you recommend? 10. 1:21:12 {Online Ministry: Respecting Church Elders} I want to start a Christian YouTube channel. Do I need to talk with my local church? I am currently an elder intern and want to know if I should wait till they lay hands on me (1 Timothy 5:22). https://BibleThinker.org
