1. 0:37 {Take the Strong Theology Quiz!} Take the Strong Theology Quiz! 2 questions to test the strength of your faith.
2. 24:23 {Polygamy & Homosexuality} Is there biblical warrant to treat gay unions similar to polygamy (not something that the Church should propagate/condone, but also not for the Church to break up if done before conversion)?
3. 34:51 {Multi-Campus Churches: Biblical?} What are your thoughts on churches with multiple campuses? Good, bad? I do not like the model, but do not know if there is a biblical argument against it.
4. 40:42 {Don’t Say “Vibes”?} Should Christians use the word “vibes” in our speech? Isn’t that New Age language? Shouldn’t we be careful of the words we say in everyday conversations?
5. 46:46 {OG Meaning of “Take Up Your Cross”} Regarding Matthew 16:24, at the time Jesus said it, what do you think the disciples understood when Jesus said "take up your cross”? I imagine this would have confused them prior to Jesus' sacrifice.
6. 52:05 {Did God Command Lying?} Since the Lord judged David guilty of murder for directing Uriah to the frontlines, should the Lord not also be guilty for directing lies? See Leviticus 19:11 vs. 1 Kings 22:19-23.
7. 1:00:55 {Everyday Evangelism Tips} How do you plant seeds or spread the Gospel in situations like when you’re at the grocery store, at the bank, etc.? I feel burdened with compassion to share Jesus, but I’m not sure how.
8. 1:03:44 {Death Penalty: Incompatible w/Grace?} How does capital punishment mesh with unlimited grace? If you can’t out-sin the grace of God, why should we end someone's opportunity to accept that grace?
9. 1:09:19 {Premarital Sex = Elder Disqualified?} How far should we take 1 Timothy 3:2? If an unmarried believing man had premarital sex, but then went on to marry a different woman and has been faithful throughout the marriage, is he disqualified?
10. 1:14:48 {What Needs Reforming in the Church Today?} In the spirit of Reformation Day tomorrow, what are some things that the modern Church needs to reform in? What would be a part of “Mike Luther’s 95 theses”?

Happy Reformation Day! (tomorrow)

1. 0:03 {Mormonism: Uncovering The Truth} What’s the truth about Mormon doctrine? Is Mormonism incompatible with Christianity?
2. 29:36 {Repentance Before Forgiveness?} How does forgiveness work? Does repentance have to come before forgiveness? Luke 17:3-4 and other places seem to be clear that it does. If you can explain what that looks like I would appreciate it.
3. 41:06 {Are You Ashamed of Jesus?} In Luke 9:26, what is considered being “ashamed"? I would think every one of us have situations where we don't find the boldness to testify.
4. 48:09 {Painful Loss but Powerful Witness} My son found Jesus and shared the news excitedly with me over the phone, then tragically died the next day. What would be an honoring, powerful, yet sensitive testimony to others?
5. 49:23 {Proof of Calvinism?} Who is Jesus referring to in Mark 4:10-12 when He says, "…for those who are outside…"? Why would He not want them to understand and be forgiven? It almost sounds like Calvinism. Could it be the non-elect?
6. 56:53 {Would Jesus have Died for 1 Soul?} I’ve heard it said, “If you were the only sinner, Jesus would still have come for you.” Is this true? I’ve never heard anyone back it up. I want to believe it, but fear His love is more corporate than individual.
7. 1:02:50 {Family & Ministry Priorities} How do you balance ministry and family? How do you ensure you do not sacrifice your family and time with them on the altar of ministry?
8. 1:07:27 {Mike’s Thoughts on Surrogacy} What is your take on surrogacy?
9. 1:15:10 {“The Restrainer” – Meaning?} What does “the restrainer being removed” mean in 2 Thessalonians 2:7?
10. 1:21:13 {Godly Influence in a Dark Area} A church in my hometown has now joined a “pride community” (it’s a Methodist church). What things can I do to show people they are teaching a false Jesus? I just don’t want people to be deceived.

I have high hopes about this independent, third party investigation and we just need more witnesses to come forward. Gary’s ministry is not able to control what happens next. Let the light shine.

Email daniel@netgrace.org if you have info on Gary Morgan, Peter McHugh, or others who participated in his fake prophecy, ministry misconduct, or other pastors who participated in the cover-up that lasted over 10 years.

Here’s my full, nearly six hour video with a ton of evidence and testimony about the fake prophet Gary Morgan and how his sins were covered up by Peter McHugh (and others). Included in this video is a very long zoom call where we confronted Gary Morgan and his two helpers and caught them in lies: Click Here

In my opinion, an investigation is not needed in light of so much evidence that I have already presented in my video. But, I know that this third party investigation can still move a lot of people who just won’t look at the evidence or are biased against me. This will make a difference.

Here's why I think Scripture shows us not to do it.

I referenced Gavin Ortlund's video on this. Here it is.

1. 0:14 {Islamic Mosque Visit} Thinking biblically about my recent trip to an open house at a local mosque and my lunch afterward with the imam.
2. 43:06 {“By What Authority?”} I have a very analytical brother (Catholic/lawyer). Any advice on how to move the needle when conversations always go to “by what authority?”
3. 50:12 {Repentance, Forgiveness & Justice} If Shawn Bolz TRULY repents, dies, and never makes amends, can his victims ask God for justice in Heaven? If he is justified through Christ, are his victims not owed justice? Bolz is only 1 example.
4. 57:32 {Isaiah 65 – Millennial Kingdom?} Is Isaiah 65:17-20 referencing the Millennial Kingdom span, because verse 17 makes it sound like it’s about the New Heaven/New Earth that follows, but Revelation 21:1-4 says there’s no death there?
5. 1:04:37 {Painful Loss: Advice & Prayer} My wife and I lost our baby Rebecca to SIDS in April. We are now pregnant again. Do you have any advice, and can you pray for us?
6. 1:08:53 {Is it Wrong to Ask for Mercy?} When I repent of habitual sins, I trust I'm forgiven but I’m afraid God might discipline me so I walk in fear. Is it wrong to ask Him not to (mercy) since I know I would deserve it if He did? Psalm 6:1-2 makes me think it's ok to ask, but I feel so wrong asking.
7. 1:11:49 {What Is the “Law of Liberty”?} In James 1:25, how would you describe what the Law of Liberty is?
8. 1:16:54 {Wisdom for Correcting Theology} Help! Learning to think biblically about everything has made me very annoying to my believing loved ones with bad theology! How can I lovingly correct them without being that "wELL aCkShUaLLy" guy?
9. 1:21:09 {Genealogies – Why Different?} Can you explain the three 14 generations and how they don’t match other genealogies in the Bible? Why did Matthew combine some generations to make the number 14 work?
10. 1:26:41 {Lottery – Always Sinful?} Mike, if Scripture permits casting lots (Proverbs 16:33; Leviticus 16:8, Joshua 18:10, Acts 1:26), is playing the lottery without greed sinful?
