Lidiando con una Seguridad Vacilante

March 31, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Su Gracia Gratuita

Recibí por correo electrónico esta excelente pregunta sobre la seguridad de la salvación: Aprecio mucho vuestro ministerio y deseo de presentar el evangelio de forma clara, y espero que podáis compartir vuestra opinión sobre algo que ha empezado a preocuparme. He creído en Jesús para ser salvo, pero últimamente he estado vacilando en cuanto a

Understanding Saving Faith Is Not Like Breaking the Enigma Code

March 30, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - John 3:16, saving faith and the will

Yesterday I was reading an author who identifies himself as a Free Grace proponent. He was talking about what saving faith is. He said that some Free Grace people say that faith is simply being persuaded. His view is that saving faith must include believing facts. The words must include bothered me. After saying that

El Papel de la Voluntad de Creer en el Señor Jesús para la Vida Eterna

March 26, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Su Gracia Gratuita

Pablo hace esta excelente pregunta: Hemos tenido un debate sobre si una persona tiene que “querer” creer. ¿Está el versículo de Juan 1:13 en desacuerdo con eso, o lo estoy sacando de contexto? Me gustaría saber lo que ustedes creen que este versículo está diciendo. El versículo de Juan 1:13 dice que el nuevo nacimiento

¿Aborreciendo tu vida para guardarla para la vida eterna? (Juan 12:25)

March 24, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Su Gracia Gratuita

Recientemente recibí un correo electrónico de un Pastor en Suiza que quería saber el significado de este versículo: “El que ama su vida, la perderá; y el que aborrece su vida en este mundo, para vida eterna la guardará,” (Juan 12:25). Amar y Aborrecer son figuras retóricas que se refieren a las prioridades. La persona

Are We Being Clear If We Tell People to Receive Jesus as Their Savior?

March 24, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - John 1:12, Receiving Jesus

Dr. Mark Bailey, President of Dallas Theological Seminary until last June and now Chancellor, is teaching a class on the Gospel of John that is free for online viewing. A friend sent me his discussion of John’s Prologue. In this discussion Dr. Bailey argues strongly that telling people to receive Jesus is a perfectly clear

Why Being Pretty Sure Is Not Good Enough

March 22, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - assurance is certainty, Being pretty sure is not good enough, John 11:25-27

Last night Sharon and I were watching a Dallas Mavericks game and a commercial caught my attention. It was a Rocket Mortgage commercial with comedian Tracy Morgan and tough guy actor Dave Bautista. A family—dad, mom, and two daughters—is looking for a house. The husband says, “I’m pretty sure we can afford this house.” Morgan

Livros-chave do Antigo Testamento

March 18, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Graça sem limites - Livros-chave do Novo Testamento

John faz esta pergunta interessante: “Quais livros do Antigo Testamento são uma leitura obrigatória para os crentes nascidos de novo da Free Grace?” Isso é um pouco como perguntar qual alimento é obrigatório para a pessoa que deseja permanecer saudável. Precisamos de todos os grupos alimentares. Proteínas, carboidratos, vegetais, gorduras boas, água, etc. Em certo

Why Isn’t Everyone in Christianity Born Again?

March 18, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Assurance, Eternal Security, evangelism

I came to faith in Christ for my eternal salvation nearly fifty years ago in September of 1972. Back then all of us Jesus people (as we were called) were concerned for everyone within Christendom who did not have “a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.” The Jesus movement as a whole was quite diverse. Not

How on Earth Did John the Baptist Not Know Jesus?

March 16, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - “I did not know Him”, baptism of Jesus in John 1, John 1:25-34

 C. M. makes this insightful comment with questions: In the first chapter of the Gospel of John, the apostle tells us that John the Baptist declares twice “I did not know Him,” referring to Jesus. In verse 26, he also states that John the Baptist told the priests and Levites that there stood one among

¿Las recompensas del Tribunal de Cristo durarán para siempre o solo mil años?

March 12, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Su Gracia Gratuita

En una reciente entrada de blog, sugerí que las recompensas perdidas se perderían para siempre. Uno de nuestros lectores estaba en un fuerte desacuerdo, y respondió diciendo, “Las recompensas son para un periodo, 1,000 años, no la eternidad. Alguien más respondió a ese comentario, preguntando “Dónde nos dice la Biblia que las recompensas son solo
