Mike,
I was sent an article on loving God and free will. Interesting. The Reformers used to teach four stages of man's will – and that seems to clear up most of the discussion for those who can't accept scripture.

Hi Mike,
I saw a video where Jews were swinging chickens over their heads and then killing them as a token of transferring their sins to the chicken. They sell the meat, and the money is used for charity. I would presume the meat is sold to entiles, since their sins are placed on the chicken symboli... [read more]

Hi guys!
Hope all is well with you both.
I know we are at some times women and at some times men. I think you would both agree with this. But, there is a third thing we are, which is neither male nor female. The combination of this is what struck me as most interesting. When we are converted, we a... [read more]

Mat 15:24 I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel
Hi J____,
Thanks again for your question.

Mike I was asked by a friend this question: if God doesn't want us to kill our enemies than why did He have Israel wipe out their enemies? I clearly see that we are not to take someone's life literally or in our hearts by hating. We are... [read more]

Hi Mike
What are your thoughts on capital punishment? Or more importantly, what does the Bible say about this subject? With all the writings you have on line, I have not come across anything on that. I have read that we should not go to war and that we should love our enemies instead. What about the... [read more]

Mike,
Thanks again for your time. I pray you are patient with me. I got through the first three of your articles no problem with zero questions, but the counsel of his own will brought forth many. I just have but three more questions. Then I can't wait to read the law article.&... [read more]

Can you tell me from where Cain got his wife?
Thanks, T____
You wanted to know "from where" Cain took his wife, in Gen. 4:17. The short answer to your question is that Cain married his own sister. Abraham also married his own half- sister Sarah (Gen. 20:12). And Amram ma... [read more]

To Mike Vinson and the other writers of IWWB,
I am currently listed in the registry of a Church of Christ. The reason I didn't outright say I am a member of that church is because I don't believe in a lot of its teachings anymore.
If you are not familiar with this church some of their main teachings... [read more]
