Begging Jesus for the Right Reasons (Mark 5:1-20)

January 1, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Grace in Focus Articles

By Bob Wilkin The Scriptures invite both believers and unbelievers to petition God. Matthew 7:7-12 and the Lord’s calls to ask, seek, and knock are prime examples. In Scripture, we often find that people do not ask for the right reasons or ask for the wrong things. The account of the Lord casting out thousands

Confiando na morte e ressurreição de Cristo, mas sem garantia

A pergunta que estou compartilhando hoje é uma que muitas pessoas têm. O que faz uma pessoa que confia na morte e ressurreição de Cristo, mas não tem segurança? Lauri escreve: Fui criado em um lar cristão por dois lindos pais cristãos. Fui “salvo” com 6 anos de idade, mas comecei a duvidar da minha

Some Sins Are Worse Than Others

Bob G. commented on a recent blog by me: Interesting. A similar reasoning might be helpful in the consideration of Jephthah and his daughter.  It is plainly wrong to vow to the LORD and not pay—but it is arguably more wrong (is that a thing?) to offer a child as a burnt offering for the

Um leopardo pode mudar suas manchas? Segurança Eterna e os Limites do Livre Arbítrio

December 24, 2020 by Bob Wilkin in Graça sem limites

Um amigo me enviou esta pergunta de segunda mão: “Se Deus deseja que sempre tenhamos livre arbítrio, por que Ele não permitiria que devolvêssemos o dom gratuito da vida eterna se assim o desejássemos?” Esta é uma objeção comum. Também me disseram que embora ninguém possa nos arrebatar das mãos de Jesus (João 10:28) ou

Jesus Is Not Just a Good Man (Mark 6:14-29)

December 24, 2020 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Herod Antipas, Mark 6:14-29, peer pressure, the death of John the Baptist

If you have shared your faith with people, you know that some people think that Jesus was just a good man. They may even think that He was the best of men. But they do not believe that He is the Messiah, the long-promised Savior of the world, God in the flesh, and the King

Deus lhes enviará uma forte ilusão de que eles deveriam acreditar na mentira (2 Tessalonicenses 2: 11-12)

December 22, 2020 by Bob Wilkin in Graça sem limites

E por isso Deus lhes enviará um forte engano, para que acreditem na mentira, para que sejam condenados todos os que não creram na verdade, mas tiveram prazer na injustiça (2Ts 2: 11-12). David faz esta pergunta difícil: Ouvi um sermão pregado por Tiff Shuttlesworth sobre a Tribulação. No final da mensagem, ele disse que

How to Share Our Faith Clearly and Comfortably by Evangelizing the Way Jesus Evangelized

December 22, 2020 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - clarity in evangelism, John 3:14-18, John 4:10-26, John 6:35-47

If given the opportunity, what would you tell someone he had to do to be saved from eternal condemnation? Why This Is Important If someone gives the wrong directions to heaven, it is more than frustrating. From a human standpoint, false gospels are leading people away from everlasting life, not toward it. Compare John 5:39-40

The Greatest Commandment and the Promise of Life (Matthew 22:37 and John 3:16)

December 18, 2020 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - John 3:16, John 5:39-40, Matthew 22:37, The promise of life

A. S., a reader, asks this fascinating question: In relation to Matthew 22:37 and John 3:16—in your own understanding what is the right interpretation of the two verses in relation to each other? Thanks, and stay blessed in Jesus’ name! The Lord was often asked about the greatest commandments in the OT. The reason was

La Fe Salvadora y la Apostasía: ¿Puede un Creyente Dejar de Creer?

December 16, 2020 by Bob Wilkin in Su Gracia Gratuita

La apostasía es una renuncia de la fe. No es estrictamente un término religioso. Por ejemplo, ya que Ronald Reagan era un ex-demócrata, fue un apóstata en términos de sus creencias políticas previas. La pregunta es, ¿Puede un creyente dejar de creer en Cristo? La respuesta es, sí. Las Escrituras ofrecen varios ejemplos. El apóstol
