I just watched Mr. Warnke's video which I have not seen for 25 years. It amazed me how much this man had an influence in my life over the last 25 years. Things I never forgot. Things I have used many times over and over again. I absolutely loved this video and he brought the message of salvation to many. My husband being one of them. Thank you Mike Warnke for your Words of Wisdom. You are not perfect but none of us are. I hope you are walking with the Lord and at peace in your life and with God. God bless you and keep you and may His peace shine upon you always. Terri

I've seen Mike 3 times, remember what Jesus said, if they call me Beelzebub, how will they treat you. The world is the world, I think for most of us, the workplace is our time to shine, and walk blameless, They look for our weak point to point out our wrong, don't give them any, walk the second mile with these people, let them see light in a dark world, Liberal Media will never give us a break, but the world will see the difference.

Mike has a great sense of humor who tells stories to teach his lesson. I has had one, I would like to know how I can buy all his recordings because I really enjoy them. They are entertaining but is valid and educational. weather the story or the characters are real, or really happened? who cares, the point is about the lesson you get out of it. I have read some controversy over his past, I don't feel its right for us to judge. His past is his privacy, what he chooses to share is privilege not a right. I don't condone falsifying but I don't believe in checking authenticity of peoples personal past either. there are a lot of reasons people might not want to share their past and privacy is Mikes right. Mike is a great preacher. He is really good at his work and should be appreciated for that. It was the first time I have ever heard a preacher who is actually fun and interesting to listen to. Thank you

Well I just can't believe what I've just read about Mike warnke. I heard his testimony many years ago now. An was blown away by it. I thought it was an amazing testimony and got a lot from it as I have been down a similar path. A life of sin. I've fallen away from the path for many years now. But have in the past few weeks only just started back on the narrow path for christs forgiveness. I true lily do not know what to believe about this. But as others have said it is not our place to judge as God says judge not. I imagine mass amounts of people have come to kneel at the feet of Jesus. Through his great testimony. An only God knows the whole truth. It's so sad to learn all this. I only just found this out as I was looking up on here to listen once more to his testimony. A great Christian comedian I thought. Sad.

I do not know if he is a fraud or not but I do know I have no place to judge him or anyone else. I am constantly judged for things I am trying to overcome in my life and it does not feel very good. EVERYONE of us have fallen short. We all struggle, some of our sins are hidden from the world and we present things in a clean outward package while others have, for instance, a wt. problem for all the world to judge. The church as a whole has failed and wounded more than our own loved ones have wounded us. We have nothing to boast about and we will all stand before God one day . God help all of us.

I have mike warnkes video tape and I saw him
at the bikers church I liked what I saw I say that
because my hearing is not so great. I can say
this whatever he has done or not done is between
him and God no one else.

Don, you are not God....to look past mans sin. God and ONLY God can judge him. What he did was wrong? Sure. But you are not to judge him or anyone else.

Hi Sherri, Does God overlook man's sin? Should we
as christians overlook anyone's sin and brush it under the carpet as many do? God deals with sin as we should also, we as christians know what is right and wrong,as a child we are trained to know so. This is the real problem with many churches today, they do not deal with sin within the church, they let it go.
A little leaven leaventh much! As another has said,
and quoted from the scriptures "be sure your sin will
find you out", God's word remains true in every aspect. Jesus is returning for a church without spot or wrinkle and judgement begins first with the house of God. The churches today should be no different
as in Paul's time, they dealt with sin in the church.
John 7:24 says "judge righteous judgement", we
know what is right, it's written in God's word. The best thing we can do on our part is to pray, amen.

The opinions expressed in the Reader Comments are not necessarily those held by Cross Rhythms.
I had an old cassette tape of his testimony and gave it to a friend of mine that thought she was a witch because her name was Sinclair. I told her about God but until she listened to that tape nothing would convince her. After listening she accepted christ as her Savior and she along with her family was saved and baptised. Not to many years later she died at the age of 27. She's in heaven waiting for us thanks to Mike's testimony. Fake or real. That's my truth! I would gladly pay for another copy of it.
