In this week’s Powercast, Mike and Beres take another email from Wayne Leis in Ontario, Canada. Then the boys get back to addressing Jim Richards’ letter against Mike Williams and the gospel. A number of things are addressed in Jim’s letter, and Beres and Mike each make some statements that really shut the door on Jim’s attack but the lead-up to these statements can’t go without hearing. Beres said at one point, “Jesus never quoted the New Testament,” which should be obvious but isn’t when one traditionally thinks about the relevance of Scripture. And Mike says, “Jesus never defeated Hell,” which is an absolute fact, but again is oblivious to the indoctrinated mind.

Jesus never quoted the New Testament. Just amazing the things you guys find for us.
You guys study how something is written? – the style, the tools of communication and such, you should have been lawyers. Interesting to study that deep or sideways because who is writing ( in the N.T.) is very important since only one of the 12 seemed to know the Gospel or not contradict it.
Hey guys, If you have time this week go to utube and listen to Michael Hardin on Romans session 1–Modern scholarship on Paul. It is very interesting and maybe you can comment on it.
“Beres said at one point, “Jesus never quoted the New Testament,” You are so kidding, right? Jesus didn’t need to quote the New Testament because He spoke it. The Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John all contain records of His dialog. Jesus does quote the Old Testament as authoritative and inspired. If there is no burning judgement, why does Jesus tell us about the rich man suffering in Luke 16:23 In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham from afar, with Lazarus by his side. 24 So he cried out, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue. For I am in agony in this fire.’? Statistically in the Gospels, Jesus mentions the torment of hell twice as often as He speaks of the joys of Heaven. You reject Judgement? Well, you may be “nicer” than Jesus, but you are not more Righteous nor do you have greater Truth.
I learned something new. I too, believed that Jesus went to hell to conquer the Devil. Didn’t know it was a catholic doctrine. Now, I am corrected!
I still don’t believe the devil is tormenting me in any way or tempting me.
I don’t believe in him for anything.
Thanks for sharing!
