Bill Johnson: 'Jesus is perfect theology' — any revelation about God that contradicts what you see in Jesus must not be allowed to shape your theology; 'what storms did Jesus bless?'

Mike plays a third Johnson video reinforcing the hermeneutical pillar and unpacks its practical implications

Revelation 2:23 Exodus 3 Bill Johnson hermeneutics christocentrism
Mike Winger idea 2018-02-14

Revelation 2:22-23 — Jesus threatens to cast a false teacher into a sick bed and kill her followers: direct scriptural refutation of Johnson's 'God cannot give sickness' claim

Mike cites a key New Testament text to disprove Johnson's theology from within the very Jesus-focused framework Johnson uses

Bethel's standard for 'heaven on earth' is too low: they aim for physical healing while Revelation 21:4 promises no death, sorrow, or pain — which has not yet come

Todd White's refusal to call people to repentance — arguing that is the Holy Spirit's job — is critiqued using Revelation 22:17: 'the Spirit and the bride say come,' showing the bride (the church) also calls people to Christ.

Q&A — Revelation 21:27 and the need for purification before heaven: answered by 1 Corinthians 15

Viewer challenge: doesn't Revelation 21:27 ('nothing impure can enter the New Jerusalem') support the need for purgatory?

Q&A: Satan's final judgment — is Satan already in the lake of fire because of the cross?

Viewer question: Did Christ's victory at the cross cast Satan into the lake of fire? Is Satan now just a puppet?

Revelation eschatology Revelation preterism
Mike Winger idea 2018-10-17

Revelation 20:13 — At the final judgment, each person is judged 'according to what they had done,' indicating individualized and tailored condemnation, not a uniform punishment.

Mike rounds out his biblical survey with the great white throne judgment in Revelation to show that eschatological judgment is personalized.

Revelation 20:13 hell eschatology hierarchy of sin
Mike Winger idea 2018-10-17

Hell likely involves graded punishment — Jesus' teaching about more or less tolerable judgment supports the idea that individual experience in final condemnation varies.

Q&A section: a viewer asks whether hell's punishment bends to the severity of the sin.

judgment hell eschatology
Mike Winger idea 2018-10-17

Believers are not punished at final judgment but may experience loss of rewards; the Bema Seat (1 Corinthians 3) is a judgment for rewards, not condemnation.

Q&A section: a viewer asks whether believers will receive any punishment similar to the Luke 12 servant passage.

Mike Winger idea 2019-01-30

Revelation 22:12 — "repaying each one for what he has done" does not teach levels of heaven or works-based salvation

Q&A: questioner asks whether Revelation 22:12 implies different levels or places in heaven based on works.

Viewer question on the afterlife and the meaning of Jesus preparing a place

Q&A: Revelation 20-21 as the end of the Mosaic law -- Winger is uncertain; notes a real transition happens in new heavens/new earth but declines to definitively call it the end of the law

Q&A on eschatology and the law

Q&A: NIV Morningstar — does the NIV call Jesus Satan?

Question about why the NIV uses "Morningstar" for both Isaiah 14:12 (apparently referring to Satan) and Revelation 22:16 (Jesus).
