What Does 2 Peter 3:9 Mean: No Perishing for the Repentant?

November 26, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - 2 Peter 3:9, Repentance and Salvation

Peter wrote, “The Lord is…not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance” (2 Pet 3:9). But what did he mean? The first nine verses of the last chapter of 2 Peter, chapter 3, deal with Christ’s promise to come again and set up His kingdom. The coming false teachers will

November 25, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Бесплатный дар благодати

Пастор из США прислал мне этот великолепный вопрос: Команда Grace in Focus [англ. Благодать в фокусе], благодарю за серию о вечных наградах. Я не уверен, что вы уже объясняли это: к Галатам 6:8 говорит: «сеющий в плоть свою от плоти пожнет тление, а сеющий в дух от духа пожнет жизнь вечную.» Думаю это стих о

November 24, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Ezekiel 18:32, Ezekiel 33:11, Repentance and Salvation, turn and live

Introduction The expression turn and live is found in Ezekiel 18:32 and 33:11. I chose that for the title of a book I wrote on repentance. But what did Ezekiel mean? And what does the Bible have to say about repentance? Most Evangelicals today believe that repentance is one of several conditions of everlasting life.

Às vezes anulamos a Palavra de Deus por meio de nossas tradições (Marcos 7: 1-16)?

November 23, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Graça sem limites - Aplicação, Marcos 7: 1-16, Tradição

Como decidimos como aplicar a Palavra de Deus? Algumas tradições hoje dizem que usar roupas brilhantes é pecaminoso. Até o uso de botões é considerado pecaminoso por algumas tradições. Outras tradições dizem que beber café ou chá está transgredindo os mandamentos de Deus. Outros ainda dizem que comer carne de porco é uma violação da

Читатель, который любит наш журнал, просит исключить его из списка адресатов нашей рассылки: С грустью прошу вас удалить меня из списка адресатов вашей рассылки. Мне очень нравятся ваши материалы. Но 1 Иоанна ясно говорит, что необходима трансформация в твоей жизни, либо же вечная жизнь просто напросто не прибывает в тебе. Больно получать такие письма. Но

Why Doesn’t Philippians 2:10 Teach Universalism?

November 22, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - John 3:16-18, Philippians 2:10, Romans 10:9, universalism

D. R. asks this important question: A couple we’ve known for many years recently admitted they are universalists. This came as quite a shock to us since they’ve been missionaries in Haiti for 30+ years with a Baptist organization. I’ve looked up some of your articles addressing universalism (which addressed most of the Scriptures they

¿Por qué no está todo el mundo clamando por la vida eterna?

November 19, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Su Gracia Gratuita

Un amigo me envió esta pregunta por correo electrónico: En nuestra nación y en el mundo, vemos a mucha gente que quiere una “buena oferta” en cosas materiales, como las rebajas navideñas. Hacen cola y esperan durante horas para conseguir las cosas que desean a buen precio. La gente incluso espera durante horas en una

Will You Go to Hell If You Don’t Share Your Faith Regularly?

November 18, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - denying Christ, evangelism, Revelation 21:8, witnessing

B. B. asks this heartfelt question: Hi. I had a question regarding Rev 21:8. Sometimes I get fearful to approach people to share the gospel with them, and I’ll chicken out and not do it. Does this mean that I’ll be in the lake of fire for all eternity? I’ve asked the Lord to forgive

Malalapat Ba Natin Ngayon Ang Mga Pangako Ng Lumang Tipan?

November 17, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Ang Tinig ng Biyaya

Si Lyndal ay may magandang tanong na sana mas maraming mananampalataya ang nagtanong: Isang pagbati mula sa Perth, Western Australia. Tayo ba ay maaaring kumuha ng kaaliwan sa Lumang Tipan bilang mga pangako para sa atin ngayon gaya ng, “Sapagka’t akong Panginoon mong Diyos ay hahawak ng iyong kanang kamay, na magsasabi sa iyo, Huwag

Is It Enough to Hope That Eternal Security Is True?

November 16, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Eternal security and evangelism, John 3:16, OSAS, The promise of life

C. L. raises another important question: I have a friend I’ve witnessed to on several occasions about eternal security. He acknowledges how Scripture seems to make it clear, and he seems to believe it up to the extent that he HOPES it’s true, but then is sort of prepared for the possibility that it’s not
