Today’s video is really important to me. I think this tactic of having a distorted version of Jesus and using him to reject and reinterpret the Bible is a rising trend in progressive circles. I hope this short response will help those who have become confused by this tactic. I don’t want us to replace the true Christ with a Christ fashioned after ourselves. This sort of thing promises that it will make Christianity more likeable but it ends up fundamentally changing Christian truth.

This is the sort of funny and depressing caricature I’ve come to expect nowadays. I hope my answer helps.

Behind all of these various claims from this progressive Christian is the idea that you can reinvent Christianity however you like with no accountability to a consistent view of Scripture or Jesus. In today’s case there seems to be a very odd reference (seemingly out of context or just made up) to a former pope in the place of quoting scripture.

This is one of my favorite Bible passages. I still remember when I was reading it and trying to figure out what sort of special meaning there was behind the actions of Jesus, and it hit me. I’m excited to get to share it with you. I’m not the first to discover this but it sure is a wonderful discovery! Today’s study is from John 13, where Jesus humbles himself and washes the disciples’ feet.

I’m Mike Winger and my passion is helping people learn to think biblically about everything because the Bible is more brilliant, beautiful and life-changing than the world knows.

It seems to me that what they hate is God’s righteous judgment. I’m very sad to say it but since they are hating it in the name of Christianity someone needs to say it. Please don’t let the emotional language of progressives confuse you on this issue. I’m including a link to my series explaining and defending Penal Substitutionary Atonement here just in case someone needs it. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZ3iRMLYFlHttVR0rkvhBfA-IKrg5SGcp

This is just weird. Are people in trouble merely for picking the wrong religion? Are they saved by magical magicky prayers? Here’s my response.

Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference
:
0:00 Introduction
1. 0:32 Since the Bible says we can “lift holy hands” up to the Lord, and this is due to the imputed righteousness of Christ and not our own, can you explain David’s words in Psalm 18: 20-24?
2. 8:12 What does the Bible say about dinosaurs? As someone who has studied the Bible & believes the story of Adam & Eve, I want to learn more about the timeline. How are there fossils?
3. 16:10 I saw your video explaining that babies go to Heaven and I agree with you. Does this apply to people with severe dementia (so they can’t repent) because they had a clear mind before?
4. 17:38 How do you respond to people who say that religion is just a way to control society (perhaps even in a good way) and that it just psychologically helps people not to fear death?
5. 22:18 Do you think Matthew 23:8-12 means that we shouldn’t use ministry titles? Elders (1 Timothy 3) and Pastors (Ephesians 4) seem to be roles and gifts rather than titles.
6. 28:47 Trying to wrap my head around why God would create people that He knew would not choose Him. What are your thoughts?
7. 31:59 Any advice on how to humbly share Jesus with loved ones who are facing struggle? I find that most people are defiant or see you as a Bible thumper on a high horse, even some believers.
8. 34:59 I’m a teen and got saved in March. I haven’t read the entire Bible yet. How can I protect against false doctrines and test them when I haven’t read the entire Bible?
9. 37:09 In your view, what is the fate of the Devil? Romans 16: 20 uses a verb (“crush”) that is common in warfare contexts, suggesting destruction. See also Hebrews 2: 14. How does this all work with 1 Corinthians 15: 24-28?
10. 40:37 I constantly hear the cliché, “God is in control.” Is it anything more than a meaningless platitude? It seems to me theologically sloppy, and implies divine determinism, which I reject.
11. 42:34 What are your thoughts on “Generational Curses”? Can believers be “cursed” by the actions of a parent or grandparent, or by having Native American blood?
12. 46:35 How do you know a vision given with eyes open while you’re very lucid, is from the Holy Spirit and not your actual subconscious?
13. 48:19 Is it biblical to pronounce a blessing on someone? E.g. with words like “I bless you…”? I can sense a good wish but also looking down on someone (Hebrews 7:7).
14. 51:00 Why is Jesus called “everlasting Father” in Isaiah if He’s not the Father according to Trinitarian explanation?
15. 53:25 Is it possible that the current trend and level of awful political prophecies is actually setting up the Antichrist rather nicely to come and “save” the world? Will he be a progressive?
16. 57:33 I recently joined a ministry that goes into strip clubs to spend time with the women in the clubs. I’ve gotten backlash from my family and I’m just curious if in your opinion it is Biblical.
17. 59:32 I joined a prayer group at my church. This prayer group is discussing and praying for unbiblical things, and using a concerning “devotional” (Jesus Calling). What should I do?
18. 1:01:14 Why did Paul warn the Corinthians about “another Jesus” in 2 Corinthians 11:4? How is that relevant for us today, in light of John 17:3?
19. 1:05:21 My family is “oneness” and wanted me to get baptized their way forever. I was baptized at my trinitarian church and didn’t tell them, to avoid disputes, but should I have been bold in my faith (from a teen)?
20. 1:08:06 Is there Biblical evidence for ghosts? Maybe not if a soul can only go to Heaven or Hell? Have those who believe they’ve seen ghosts actually seen demons?

Here’s how you get your questions answered in the Q&A
1) Please reread your question before you ask to ensure that it will make sense to me. Clarity is paramount.
2) Wait till we go live before asking. We don’t take questions until then.
3) Put a “Q” at the beginning of your question.
4) Please only ask once, our mods are checking

You can’t just take whatever you don’t like and call it a metaphor for a metaphor. At least not if you want to have intellectual integrity in your religious beliefs. I think the reason progressives redefine words is because they want the appearance of Christianity but without it’s meaning. The claim of being Christian without the burden of following the teachings of Christ. Changing the meanings of words is sadly just a rejection of Christian teachings.

With their first quote you’d think they aren’t dogmatic at all. That they are open to people having their own convictions. But the second quote shows this is all just part of “abortion in the name of Christ”. It’s tragic. Christians don’t have to be republican but the issue of abortion is one where justice, love and the protection of the innocent compels us to stand pro-life. Abortion is one of the clearest social justice issues of our time.
