15I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
Hey pastor Mike, I found your card @ my grocery store. I wish I seen your show when you were in town. Keep up the great work. I'll be praying for you!!

Not talented. This crap only "works" on those interested in the Jesus is my boyfriend theology so prevalent among 20-nothings and others who prefer subjectivity over objectivity.
Amen brother.... kinda... a little watered down but i feel it, grow in the grace and knowledge of our lord and savior Jesus Christ. PS re-record this for better sound

Not gonna lie, the only reason is there are christians.. is because you're all pussies. Why don't you live your life to the fullest and just wait and see what happens and not waste your whole life praying to a hypothetical god.
I don't feel that I need to explain myself to you. There's no way it will even get through your thick head. All I have to say is Religion is the biggest scam in human history
Bit of a cop out don't ya think? And I'm not into religion, although I believe in God and follow Jesus Christ.
But the question still stands, what am I not doing to live life to the fullest? More drinking, womanizing, viewing porn? I guess I will never know since you can't explain it.
Pastor Mike: Thank you for what you do here on YouTube. I thank God for your presence here, and, I thank God that you understand our Lord's point about how we cannot pour new wine into old wineskins. There are thousands of old wineskins which come your way on YT and I appreciate the gentle care you take with approaching them! :) May God's peace fill your heart, my dear brother.
I had washed my face just prior to making that video, bumming around the house with no make up. I do not know what you think you see, nor do I care. If you think you see makeup, I do not care one bit. You need to stop this.
tecnically it's called chroma key, but yes, i have a green screen. i use a video editing program that I got for less than a hundred bucks calle sony vegas movie studio. believe it or not, my green screen is two green plastic tablecloths that I bought at Walmart; it cost me about $3.00!
I see...all my comments were not placed in response to hetgow's comments as I intended them to be, but hetgow-these were directed to you. Prayerfully consider them.
Plz know I do consider them and will not flippantly disregard them at all.
I am 100% sure we (me even more so) can all die more to self and conform to Jesus image MORE than what we are doing right now.
Again my attitude and tone is not out of malice, but encouragement. Sometimes when the coach encourages the fighter to dig deeper or the runner to go faster, it hurts.
Its not mean, just pushing harder so we can all attain the prize that Christ has for those that believe.

im not a christian but i loved this, great work, shows that some christians are actually decent people and not full of the *you're dammned to hell* attitude that some are. The video rocks, keep up the good work
I was about to make the following dumb comment: careful, Mike... use of Vanilla Ice is certain to get you "hey, you are a lukewarm Christian!" comments.
Then, I saw hetgow and yokeup's comments and it wasn't so funny anymore.
I love the work you are doing for Christ. Keep it up, brother.
But, rethink Vanilla Ice in the future because, apparently, hetgow and yokeup were so bamboozled they couldn't get passed the music to hear your words. ;)
Its not the words that concerns me, its the lifestyle - if I have to go to Mike's church, which I assume is small, to hear the 'full gospel' message then something is wrong.
I mean youtube has millions of viewers its a prime opportunity to preach repentance as Jesus did, but I have yet to see it fully in Mike.
BTW I was the same but someone challenged me to dig deeper in God's word & do that 'die daily & carry the cross' thing.
Also plz dont misread the attitude in which my comment was made.
I think the chances of getting featured are about the same as getting struck by lightning. Two features? Doubt it. Besides in all honesty, this vid is not feature material, not nearly as good as the one that was featured.
It was so hard for me to memorize this song, because the original song kept popping into my head...a master lip reader could see where I messed up several times in the filming and sang the real words!
I love this Pastor MIke. You are so funny. I hope the kids in your youth group are gietting something out of it. They are the important part of this. Keep things going, I am sure you are reaching some new people. I hope and pray they can see the Christ you are trying to show them.

Funny how you mention evangelizing & preaching the gospel but I have never once heard you preach the gospel message.
The message that includes repentance, asking forgiveness of sin, dying to self daily, carrying your cross, being renewed thru His word, conforming to His image, etc.
I guess its easier to just make parodies. I hope going after subs and ratings works out for you.

Steve, your comment was laced with sarcasm which is not befitting a man of God like yourself, not exactly one of the fruit of the spirit.
I have no issues with you and it will forever stay that way.
pt1 No sarcasm at all, an observation from ur comments & vids.
For example ur "does Jesus like hip hop" vid u ignored that whats okay for one might be a sin for another. Each should seek God & His word for what HE wants us to do (instead of saying everything is ok).
w/ all ur vids I have yet to hear u preach a full message or a life requiring one to submit, die daily & conform to Christ; to lay down the things of the world, but instead trying to be christianized version of what the world is.
pt2 plz know I care; I'm praying for u & ur wife -she is doing better (God is good all the time).
Its not an 'attack' but more of a challenge to search our hearts (mine included) to conform more to Christ's image & preach the gospel message that is evident thru a radically changed life, & not one where people can see no difference between us and the world.
BTW when is it not a 'fruit of the spirit' to challenge & encourage people toward greater obedience to God?
You wanna know why I have never been subscribed to you? I see all over the Christian community where people are giving you praise and I'm thinking in my mind, "Nobody is that good. He just has a fan club". I never heard a word you said before I just read these posts. If I could just subscribe to your texting I would. I hope your posts get to stand, my brother of iron. May the Lord provide you with more healing uncomfortable words of love.
you are wrong in your perception of Pastor Mike. And if he says he doeas not want to get into this kind of "drama" then I will leave it alone also. so that is the end of it
well, I just hope you continue to seek God and His word daily & conform to His image. To concentrate on things that will last forever = this if for me as well.
This is a reply to hetgow, I ran out of room... Jesus himself never started with the words, "Repent, for the Kingdom of God is at hand." There was an element of developing a relationship with the person he was reaching out to first. Mike has developed personal relationships with people through his internet ministry, people he ministers to and prays for daily. I'm sure others here can see your heart for pure unadulterated gospel sharing, but we have to go back to the Word-how did Jesus do it?
Jesus preached "repent or perish" to believers who had become just like the world in their hearts - iow they did the right things on the outside but inside their hearts were hardened.
sure there r instances of establishing a relationship, but Jesus preached everywhere and many times did not do the relationship bit.
Plz understand I am not totally dis-ing everything Mike has or is doing.
I am just pushing the envelope so people get more serious about Jesus and living for Him.
Jeff...I find this comment frustrating when you have been rebuked multiple times but never seem to accept the person's point or its application to your ministry.
I love how people attack when some one is just trying to do something positive. I have heard Mike speak of the things you have mentioned. I think it is wrong to continually find things wrong in what our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ are trying to do in a positive and creative way. Pastor Mike found something that got others attention to Christ. I support Pastor Mike
I agree with thejette. I have also faithfully watch his videos and heard him share messages against sin and things. Go back and check for yourselves before ya jump on another brother in Christ.
You know, Mike had grand plans on being way more evangelical with his internet presence, but the Lord had other plans, as you know. His interests are very divided. Just know that Gods ways are not our ways. I understand where you're coming from, and don't find your comments to be offensive. Just look at the big picture. The Lord is truly working through the "positive & creative" stuff, too.
Steve (and Jeff) I will not involve myself in YT drama. I preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ every week at my church. If you'd like, I will give you directions and you can come see for yourself. Steve, your comment was laced with sarcasm which is not befitting a man of God like yourself, not exactly one of the fruit of the spirit.
I have no issues with you and it will forever stay that way.
Wait...I thought you said you weren't trying to be insulting? That last comment was kind of low, considering you don't know Mike. His ministry was first to his youth group, and his myspace page and youtube videos were first produced for them to get their gears working, and eventually to be spread out for others to see.
Easy mccreary ur assuming I dont know Mike, have not watched his vids or read a majority of his comments on youtube, myspace, etc.
Again if the evidence is a person who is radically changed and does HIS will, then great.
However if a youth group is more into video games & pizza parties than preaching the gospel to the lost, doing serious bible study prayer, then something is amiss.
Working gears is nothing unless its the work of the Lord. Its like saying 'change is good' (not always).
Steve...you have been directly addressed by many brothers & sisters in Christ that instead of agreeing with you are asking that you re-think your stance. I wonder...is that enough to get your attention and make you stop for a minute to analyze whether you are in the right here?
You don't have to like this video for it to still impact others that might in-turn start asking Mike questions about The Lord.
I will send you a PM. Like you I have some things to say about this topic and am not trying to ruffle feathers. So perhaps a private dialog is warranted from this point on.
I decided to check out your claims of Mike and with very minimal research found the following vids that either preach the Gospel message or talk about its importance and role in his life:
AWESOME!!!!

w/ all ur vids I have yet to hear u preach a full message or a life requiring one to submit, die daily & conform to Christ; to lay down the things of the world, but instead trying to be christianized version of what the world is.

pt2 plz know I care; I'm praying for u & ur wife -she is doing better (God is good all the time).
Its not an 'attack' but more of a challenge to search our hearts (mine included) to conform more to Christ's image & preach the gospel message that is evident thru a radically changed life, & not one where people can see no difference between us and the world.
BTW when is it not a 'fruit of the spirit' to challenge & encourage people toward greater obedience to God?

You wanna know why I have never been subscribed to you? I see all over the Christian community where people are giving you praise and I'm thinking in my mind, "Nobody is that good. He just has a fan club". I never heard a word you said before I just read these posts. If I could just subscribe to your texting I would. I hope your posts get to stand, my brother of iron. May the Lord provide you with more healing uncomfortable words of love.

you are wrong in your perception of Pastor Mike. And if he says he doeas not want to get into this kind of "drama" then I will leave it alone also. so that is the end of it
thejette61 3 years ago
well, I just hope you continue to seek God and His word daily & conform to His image. To concentrate on things that will last forever = this if for me as well.

This is a reply to hetgow, I ran out of room... Jesus himself never started with the words, "Repent, for the Kingdom of God is at hand." There was an element of developing a relationship with the person he was reaching out to first. Mike has developed personal relationships with people through his internet ministry, people he ministers to and prays for daily. I'm sure others here can see your heart for pure unadulterated gospel sharing, but we have to go back to the Word-how did Jesus do it?

Jesus preached "repent or perish" to believers who had become just like the world in their hearts - iow they did the right things on the outside but inside their hearts were hardened.
sure there r instances of establishing a relationship, but Jesus preached everywhere and many times did not do the relationship bit.
Plz understand I am not totally dis-ing everything Mike has or is doing.
I am just pushing the envelope so people get more serious about Jesus and living for Him.

Jeff...I find this comment frustrating when you have been rebuked multiple times but never seem to accept the person's point or its application to your ministry.

I love how people attack when some one is just trying to do something positive. I have heard Mike speak of the things you have mentioned. I think it is wrong to continually find things wrong in what our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ are trying to do in a positive and creative way. Pastor Mike found something that got others attention to Christ. I support Pastor Mike

I agree with thejette. I have also faithfully watch his videos and heard him share messages against sin and things. Go back and check for yourselves before ya jump on another brother in Christ.

I support & pray for Mike & his wife, but just because something is 'positive & creative' means its true/righteous before God?
Not really (BTDT).
BTW ur mistaken, I dont "continually find things wrong" w/ Mike, ur making a big assumption, but no problem.
Again the evidence is not whether a person is positive or creative, but whether we look & act more like Jesus daily.
Iron sharpens iron but today, any words that are 'uncomfortable' or 'blunt' is an attack.
There r 2 sides to every coin.

You know, Mike had grand plans on being way more evangelical with his internet presence, but the Lord had other plans, as you know. His interests are very divided. Just know that Gods ways are not our ways. I understand where you're coming from, and don't find your comments to be offensive. Just look at the big picture. The Lord is truly working through the "positive & creative" stuff, too.

Steve (and Jeff) I will not involve myself in YT drama. I preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ every week at my church. If you'd like, I will give you directions and you can come see for yourself. Steve, your comment was laced with sarcasm which is not befitting a man of God like yourself, not exactly one of the fruit of the spirit.
I have no issues with you and it will forever stay that way.
May God bless you!

Wait...I thought you said you weren't trying to be insulting? That last comment was kind of low, considering you don't know Mike. His ministry was first to his youth group, and his myspace page and youtube videos were first produced for them to get their gears working, and eventually to be spread out for others to see.
mccreary74 3 years ago
Easy mccreary ur assuming I dont know Mike, have not watched his vids or read a majority of his comments on youtube, myspace, etc.
Again if the evidence is a person who is radically changed and does HIS will, then great.
However if a youth group is more into video games & pizza parties than preaching the gospel to the lost, doing serious bible study prayer, then something is amiss.
Working gears is nothing unless its the work of the Lord. Its like saying 'change is good' (not always).
hetgow 3 years ago
Steve...you have been directly addressed by many brothers & sisters in Christ that instead of agreeing with you are asking that you re-think your stance. I wonder...is that enough to get your attention and make you stop for a minute to analyze whether you are in the right here?
You don't have to like this video for it to still impact others that might in-turn start asking Mike questions about The Lord.
TheEdge012 3 years ago
read all my comments on this thread - its clear I am not dis-ing everything Mike does, just questioning and prodding people to dig deeper.

Steve,
I will send you a PM. Like you I have some things to say about this topic and am not trying to ruffle feathers. So perhaps a private dialog is warranted from this point on.
TheEdge012 3 years ago
I decided to check out your claims of Mike and with very minimal research found the following vids that either preach the Gospel message or talk about its importance and role in his life:
v=HNPjNCJyPog (5:30 6:10)
v=FipQRIDuADU&feature=related (Entire Video)
v=6tsYPXxC5rY (Talks about his desire to share The Gospel)
v=JtO3RJceZ6E&feature=related (1:55 and forward)
v=m9uoexE8-RI (1:05 forward 3:38 forward)
TheEdge012 3 years ago
I also assume that you are fine with having fun with videos and not making each and every single one with a direct Gospel message?

never said otherwise, so stop implying that I did and am the 'bad guy'.
