In the resurrection they will not be disabled and will have a normal body not a disabled glorified body every priest had to be without bodily defect

How do we demythologize Plutarch, Plato, Aristotle, Marcion, Spong,Bultmann, Dan Brown, Ehrman, Harnack, Schumacher, Aquinas, Origen, Tim LaHaye, Billy Graham, Richard Rohr, Soren Kierkegaard and every other platonizer, moralizer, naval gazer and paganizer from the plain reading of the text in context?

I just realized your bumper music is the same as the theme from 'Call the Midwife'/🙃

You need to go back to the basics. Justification derives from sedaqah and sedeq. There's exactly 0 basis in the OT usage of the word and cognates for covenant. So you are conflating justification with its implications for fellowship. While related, those are two distinct realities. Semantically justification is tied to the righteousness of God as you well know.

Where is the rest of it? 😅

Vindiciae Contra Tyrannos (A Defense of Liberty Against Tyrants) by Junius Brutus

NT Wrong 😂

Dig a little deeper. Jesus expects us to use our brains.

People with disabilities have seem to have a pure and wholesomeness to them.

Love Anglican theology and history, most of which is Roman Catholic for about 1500 years. It is the Anglican Church that has veered off the path. In Toronto, the leadership walks in the Pride Parade and has a Pride flag hanging in their Cathedral. Too much diversity of liturgy invites heresy that goes well beyond anything to do with the Eucharist.

What a bull sh..t. you are speaking tongues. Lots of words with no logic or meaning. Demagogue.

Thomas brought me back to the church 🙏❤️

How this can be described as a cultural issue in the light of Paul's creation arguments is just beyond me

Very good Michael! A very good presentation from modern a Christian perspective! Should we be surprised that the Didache is written from a Jewish perspective. The first century "church" (synagogue ?) was made up of disciples of a Jewish Messiah. Of course we can't know the ratio of Jews and Gentiles disciples when the Didache was written but it's obvious it is full of Jewish context because our faith was birthed from Judaism. The disciples were practicing Judaism and most likely had no clue our faith would separate from it's mother doctrine and gospel. We can imagine the Didache was written by Jewish believers to Gentiles who had left their pagan gods to service their maker and creator. The Jewish believers would have taught from the Scriptures and traditions of Israel. They would have taught as a normal course (and it's right in the Didache) what the Jewish Messiah had taught them through Jesus's apostles who all were Jewish. So thank you Michael for you positive take on the Didache! I would highly recommend the book "The Way of Life" by Toby Janicki for an in depth commentary from a Messianic Jewish perspective. I would claim that is the perspective the disciples of Jesus would have had when the Didache was written. Blessings to whoever took the time to read my thoughts. Shalom!

Discovered this book 15 years ago and it, along with the volume of the Apostolic Fathers, and the Ante-Nicean Fathers, completely changed my Christian practice and ministry. It's interesting I see the exact same books on your bookshelf behind you as is on mine.

Where did all the female characters come from? Not from Jewish. Had to be from pagans with female characters in their religions. Barbelo is the "Rosebud" of the story. DeConick and Thomas Gaston say Egyptian origin. I have not read their articles, but it seems like the first place to look.

❤ great words brother

This is perhaps some of the best teaching I have heard on the deity of Christ. Really, really good!

There are also the stories of John the Baptist, Dositheus, Simon Magus and Menander, who were, except for John, a series of Samarian heretics who were followers of each in succession, all in the first century.

Hey brother? Can you get me in to the church, here in Chillicothe Ohio? What do I need to learn? You fascinate me. I am in Shock, in a good way. I'm looking for a loving church. I love everything you are saying. I am subscribing right now ❤😊

Thank you so much for this Michael. Very grateful that you have prioritised this message. Amen!

The Jehovah's Witnesses now teach a belief similar to Arianism. However this only dates back to the late 19th century. In the earlier church Arianism was strongest in north Africa, which suggests it morphed into Islam [which is even more strongly anti-Trinitarian]. I think I have read somewhere that the long Athanasian Creed used to be read at Mass annually on Trinity Sunday instead of the Nicene Creed [perhaps someone will confirm or correct this].

Thank you

Wonderful! Thank you so much for all you do: your videos, posts, books… How can we have the best use of all this content? I forget often so much what I hear or read and when taking notes, I don’t go back to them!

Clear texts vs unclear texts. 1Tim 2 is very clear on this issue. The other texts referenced are unclear. They do not clearly teach what he claims. Interpret unclear texts by the clear texts.

You conflate the cause with the effect. Salvation is by faith alone and that salvation means you are part of the covenant community. To say that joining makes one saved is absolutely heresy.

You don't take it seriously, for it is simply the truth that there is NO credible evidence suggesting that this Jesus was an actual historical person.

I don’t know who this guy is but The women who leave do not want to be subject to biblical truth. The Bible is CLEAR on who Pastors are. They are MEN! As for Beth Moore, she went off the rails years ago. She’s the new Joyce Myers. Liberals play book is to get their nose under the tent to bring in women as pastors, and homosexuals to be allowed to “marry”, and to destroy the TRUTH of the Bible. The Bible has predicted all of this. Maybe this dude needs to actually READ the Word of God. Start with 2 Timothy 4:3-4. Then read Romans 1.

Predestination is biblical and Calvin didn't invent it.

I had to listen to this part twice, but you said the Eucharist is an act of cultic worship? The Lord's words are on par with Holy Scripture? Wait, He is the Word of God. Why did this need to be said, as though He was equivalent to an early bishop?

I agree with you for the most part, but I think you’re off base about dying and rising gods - there are cases of similar transfiguration myths in the Greco-Roman world that predate Jesus. Romulus and Orpheus are two good examples, in fact there was a whole trend among emperors where they'd pay people to proclaim they'd ascended to godhood after death at their funerals

Was it the Roman church at the time to go against God?

Great point Michael! Thanks!

Fantastic! Praise God!

Paul also taught head covering in all the churches as well according to 1 Cor 11.

There is nothing unusual about this. And- you said nothing about what his life was. Nothing about what behavior was to be imitated

I am bewildered how people can study scriptures and even called Dr for it. But when it comes to Israel, they call it Palestine. Jesus wasn't born in Palestine. There is no Palestine. The Romans referred to Israel and Syria palestina in 135 AD as an insult to the Jews. The British called it Palestine in 1917 which got Changed in 1948 when God fulfilled his prophesy of returning the Jews back. Wasn't called Palestine ever besides these moments in time. Bible doesn't mention Palestine. Even the Satanic Qur'an does not mention Palestine. How can preachers be so studied and not know the name of the place Jesus was born?

Thank you for your critique. And yeah wow that's kind of what I've been thinking and it's opioids for the mind knowing someone else is in agreement with me haha. Keep up the good work.

A bit over the top perhaps, but wonderfully articulated. I have a much better understanding (from your perspective) of so-called “Christian Nationalism” than before…

Your assumption that this is a strange idea of a cramped existence is highly biased and distracting.

Hey Dr. Bird, regading City of God, is there a specific translation you recommend?

I remember attending a conference at a local church in 1981 where Joni Erickson addressed us concerning people with disabilities and how the church could minister to them. I was a recreation Director in a long-term care at that time so it was helpful for ministering to those outside the church. Many volunteers assisted by having services or Bible studies and ministering to personal needs. Joni and Husband continue to minister to the handicap. Thankful for those who reach out. Thanks for bringing this needed message for today

Thanks, Mike. As someone with cerebral palsy, I appreciate you bringing this topic up!

Unpopular opinion: Book of Mormon > Didache.

It's called Pentecostalism today.

I really like Anglicanism. However, all my attempts to join the Anglican community have unfortunately been unsuccessful. I live in Russia, and there are no Anglicans here who want to start a Russian-speaking church.

Thanks for this information. But, what about the claim that the eyewitnesses were actually hallucinating as they thought to have seen and encountered Jesus? Could you please elaborate on this statement? Thank you!

Hey Mike, I'm enjoying these videos. Not a huge fan of the naration voice. You should (if you haven't already) check out cloning your voice with ElevenLabs to do the narration bits. I tried it with just 1 min of my voice and it does a surprisingly good job..
