Michael Anthony Bible Teaching Podcast

America needs a bath. In this opening message for the National Week of Repentance (RevivalMatters.com), Michael Anthony takes us into God’s word to understand what God looks for among His people whenever He wants to do a mighty work. It’s time for a real revival in our nation – and that revival needs to begin with you.

Every church should be a place where The Great Physician, Jesus Christ, can comfort, restore and heal the lives of hurting, broken people. This special message is brief because it was followed by an open time for the entire audience to deal candidly with their hurts and sins. It was a time of public confession of sin and restoration that is sure to be remembered for a long time. Due to the sensitive nature of the confessions, they were not included in this podcast. As you listen, ask God to move in your life for His glory. Let Jesus do what He does best.

What are some real world ways to “Go, and make disciples”? This message offers practical steps to live that out in your daily walk with Christ.

It’s time. Everything else in life can wait, but this can’t. It’s time for a national week of repentance, October 11-18, 2015. In this message, you’ll know what it means to “move that bottle.” It’s time you become a bottle mover, for such a time as this. For more information, visit www.revivalmatters.com. Spread the word.

It’s time. We cannot leave our current national problems to a future generation to solve. Right now is the time. No amount of the wrong solution will compensate for the absence of the right solution. Only God can fill the void that only God was made to fill. Leadership is not simply recognizing the problem – it’s about coming up with the solution to the problem. Our nation, and many people and families, have serious problems. The question is, what can we DO about these problems? It’s time to let God get your life, your family, your church – and this nation – together. If not now, then when? If not you, then who? Now is the time for people around our nation to embrace the real solution for the epic problems we are facing. What is it? Listen and find out. Your life, and perhaps this nation, may turn around as a result.

There are four questions you can ask yourself, your family and within your church that will absolutely transform everything. They will positively, radically change everything. Do you know what they are? You will after you listen to this life ALTAR-ing message.

What Do You Do With A Sinning Saint? Which will it be – divine discipline or real restoration? What do we do when a Christian sins and that sin affects other people in significant, deep ways? Should the person who has sinned undergo “church discipline” or be forgiven and restored? What are the circumstances that Christians, church leaders and churches must consider? And, what about you? What if you (or someone you know) has sinned in a deep, permeating way? How do you respond so that God can forgive, heal and restore? Every Christian – and every church – will eventually be faced with the important choice of what to do with a sinning saint. In such instances, it’s all too easy to exalt the sin and Satan rather than the Savior. This message will help you look at what God says on the matter, so that the choice you make follows His heart and wisdom – and always exalts the Savior. When this happens, the floodgates of forgiveness, healing and restoration open wide.

Think you understand the Lord’s Supper and baptism? Think again. If you’re not Jewish, and are unfamiliar with the Old Testament, you probably don’t appreciate them the way you will after listening to this special message.

There are times when it’s absolutely dangerous to participate in the Lord’s Supper, or “Communion.” Do you know when those times are? And, what is the relationship between the Passover lambs in Exodus 12 and Jesus’ sacrifice? Why weren’t Jesus’ bones broken, and why was His side pierced? You’ll get the answers to these vital questions in this life-igniting message, and appreciate the seriousness of the Lord’s Supper like never before.

“Unoffendable” may not be an actual word – but it should be. We ignore people. We leave churches. We become bitter – all because we won’t forgive and we become offended. Janet Paolicelli, Godfactor co-founder and wife of Michael Anthony, is passionate about what the Bible teaches on forgiveness. This message was delivered at Grace Fellowship in York, Pennsylvania’s “Revive” gathering for women, but it will ignite your life for God and challenge you to ask and answer these vital questions: 1. Can forgiveness happen without a sacrifice? 2. Can relationships happen without forgiveness? 3. Is it a sign of weakness or courage to forgive someone? 4. What are the real reasons why we won’t forgive? 5. How can we move from being offended to becoming unoffendable? Are you unoffendable? You just may be after listening to this life-igniting, two-part message.

Special Message by Dr. Jared Pingleton, Vice President of the American Association of Christian Counselors

What would happen if you took Jesus' words in Matthew 7:24-28 seriously? You'd have the potential to be a rockstar -- someone whose entire life is built on Jesus Christ and His teaching. When the storms of life come, you'll be able to stand. This final message in Pastor Michael Anthony's series through the entire book of Acts will help you appreciate what it looks like to live like a rockstar, so you can thrive for Jesus Christ.

All four Gospels show Jesus, after His resurrection, doing things that defy human capability. Why? If the idea was to fabricate stories about Jesus to make them believable, why include stories that are otherwise unbelievable? In this message, Michael Anthony explores the account of the vanishing, re-appearing Jesus. It’s part of what makes the unbelievable story of Jesus . . . believable.

This message is a rousing finale to our series through the entire Gospel of Luke! Think you understand the importance of Jesus’ ascension? Think again. There are HUGE consequences for Jesus – and for you. Once you understand the ascension, you’ll realize that EVERYTHING IS BENEATH YOU!

Are you really at peace with God? What about with people? Racism rages when we forget that God created us all. It’s time to settle your peace with God and people while you still have time. Why postpone peace? The alternative is misery. It’s time to settle the issue of being at peace with God and with people.

After vanishing in Emmaus, Jesus suddenly reappears in Jerusalem to the eleven apostles and other believers – and he asks for something to eat. Why would food be on the newly resurrected Jesus’ mind, and why was it important for the disciples to see Him eat? And, what life-changing promise does Jesus make to them that is also for every believer today – the game-changer that gives us supernatural power to do what would otherwise be impossible? This message will fire you up for the real Jesus, who gives real power to real believers.

Have you noticed that there appear to be major differences and contradictions in the Gospels? This message helps address them, along with the false notion that Jesus didn’t judge. By the time you’re done listening, you’ll have a new appreciation for what the Bible teaches, and it will definitely boost your faith and ignite your walk with God. Share it with a friend who may struggle believing the Bible is true and accurate. You may give them exactly the boost they need.

You can’t expect to hit a target you aren’t aiming for. Here’s a message that will help you know what you should aim for – so you hit it consistently, with growing momentum, throughout your life. It’s time you hit your bullseye. Share this message with your friends so they can start hitting theirs, too.

What would it be like if all the sin in all the world, for all of time, gathered together in one place? Here’s your chance to find out – because it happened. The consequences for you, however, are even more staggering.
