Andy Stanley vs the OT: The Hebrews Series pt 2 (1:1-2)

Most people don't realize that Hebrews 1 refers to the apocryphal book "The Wisdom of Solomon" in addition to Proverbs 8. Once you do, this raises questions about whether or not Hebrews is teaching that Jesus was created, since those other books indicate that Wisdom was created and Hebrews connects Jesus to that very concept of Wisdom. We'll dig deep on that topic as we continue this detailed, verse by verse study of the book of Hebrews.

How often will I livestream this series?
Unlike series in the past I won't have a particular live stream schedule for this. It won't be every week but, whenever I do make a new teaching in this series, I will try to do it on Monday's at 1pm Pacific time to have some degree of consistency.

Sorry for the abrupt ending. I realized as I was going that it would be wise to break this study into two parts, at least I think it will be. The second part, where I deal with the attributes of Christ and the connection to the Wisdom of Solomon will be coming soon!

THANK YOU for this! As someone in GA who is surrounded by people (friends, family and neighbors) that go to Andy's churches, I am so hopeful that more pastors with a larger influence / ministry, such as Mike, will expose him and his theology. He, along with others like him, has created a generation of lukewarm "Christians" with no desire to repent or revere God, and it breaks my heart.

I was invited to an Andy Stanley church in 2016. At the time, I was probably in the agnostic group. I liked what I heard and kept going. Eventually, I softened up and came back to Christ. I think Andy serves the milk to get folks in the door. It tickles the ears and brings in the $$.

But I stopped going a little over a year ago, when the Sunday after Oct 7th there was absolutely no mention of the events in Israel. Our campus pastor was a native Isreali and I imagine it killed him inside. Maybe they didn't get it approved in time.... If the red tape keeps you from preaching and praying about current, Biblical events, then there's an issue. No spine. The organization is too big for its own good.

I have since found a Bible teaching church and read my Bible daily with prayers to not be lead astray.

Thank you, Andy for pulling me back in but I need the meat, not just the milk.

I appreciate Mike's respectful and thoughtful rebuke here.

I paused the video and searched “Hebrews 1 in Greek” on YouTube just to hear the alliteration, and it does sound really cool lol. The Holy Spirit is an amazing poet

[malaynaschulthies]

If people want to listen to a Stanley, I highly recommend that they listen to Andy's father Charles Stanley. Thanks Mike for exposing us to this content. Hebrews is one of my favorite New Testament books.

[shortalbino]

Andy apologists gonna come on this one haaaard. God bless you, Mike. Never back down from what God has set you on.

[RechurchedTV_]

I happened to be reading the Bible through for the first time when my church started this very series called Aftermath, when the Lord began to show me that staying under Andy’s teaching would lead me away from the Lord. Thank you for doing this, people need to hear it.

As a 56 year old Christian who was born again in my elementary years I thank God for the OT. The last decade + I have been buried in the OT being blessed by Gods message to the nations. Truly the greatest story (Truth) ever told. Gods revelation is infinte, beautifull and profound beyond the human ability to comprehend, I'm humbled daily by the Truth and Wisom discovered in the TNK. I'm ashamed of not being a lifetime student of ALL the scripture.

[jamescampbelljr]

Andy is definitely leading people down the wrong path. Pray for him! 🙏

[susandunn]

It's good to point out false teachers. Keep up the good work Mike.

The world needs more Bible based teaching. We as a society have become lazy with our faith and do not want to put time, effort, faith and practice

[christinamurphy]

As I’ve been growing in the study of the Bible, one of my favourite parts is seeing how connected the New Testament is to the Old Testament. Commentary ordered. Thank you so much for highlighting this false teaching from Andy Stanley.

Man, hearing that this is being taught by Andy Stanley makes we wanna be the proverbial crazy person in Andy Stanley’s church theater and yell FIRE!
