Q: Based on God’s Sovereignty, does man truly have a free will?” A: First, let’s decide to agree that free will does not mean that human beings can do any and every thing they please. The Apostle Paul gives us insight into this theological fact, when he says in 1Corinthians 10:23, “Everything is permissible,” but not everything is beneficial. “Everything is permissible, but not everything is edifying.” Martin Luther, the most noted German Theological, struggled greatly with the relationship between God’s sovereignty

The glorious [LOVE] attributes of God the Father is the perfect example of what we as Christian fathers should be imitating. Dr. Paul Vitz, who is a

What does the Bible say about our pets and Heaven?
Q: Dr. Mike, we simply love our pets (dog & cat)! What does the Bible say about our pets and Heaven? A: The answer to this question [sort of] takes the same path as a previous one, on whether God abhors ‘Cremation’ ” as opposed to ceremonial burial? The Word of God doesn’t speak for or against the soul of an animal, nor whether or not “ALL” pets go to Heaven! However, we do find throughout sacred Scripture that God breathed the
Differences between the Baptism with the Holy Spirit and the Infilling with the Holy Spirit?

Whenever and wherever I’m teaching one of the 15 Saturday seminars, I try to stay consistent with my theological explanations, regardless of the denomination that I’m conducting the seminar(s). The reason that I made this statement, is

One Sunday per month (God willing), my wife and I meet over brunch with a group of senior church leaders from around the region, to fellowship and to discuss current issues surrounding the local

What’s the significance of the Number 666 and the End Time?
(Part Five) Q: My friends and I have heard much about the Number 666 that’s in the Book of Revelation – even to the point, that people avoid it. Can you share a little bit about its significance to the End Time? A: You are correct: people avoid that number like the plague! I, for one, am aware that it only represents the ‘essential’ number for a man, therefore, I actually use it for the ministry mailing address [The Teaching Ministry of
Will those who have been cremated be Rapture?
[Part Four] Q: Dr. Mike, will those who have been cremated be Rapture? A: That’s a good question! A dear minister friend of mine called me the other day, after attending a “Homegoing Service” of a dear friend of ours. He mentioned to me that a Believer asked him if cremation was biblical, and he stated to the person, “No! That we should all be properly buried, if we fall asleep before Christ’s return for His church!” Then he asked me if
