This book makes the point that Christian men today need to follow Christ instead of materialism and the world. Unfortunately, it is limited by shallow biblical exposition and by Lordship

A Punishment Worse Than Death — Hebrews 10:26-31

September 1, 1992 by Bob Wilkin in Grace in Focus Articles

“For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries. Anyone who has rejected Moses’ law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. Of

No Second Repentance? – Hebrews 6:4-8

July 1, 1992 by Bob Wilkin in Grace in Focus Articles

4For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for

“Soul Salvation,” Part 5 — Suffering Which Results in Abundant Life — 1 Peter 1:9

May 1, 1992 by Bob Wilkin in Grace in Focus Articles

“Receiving the end of your faith–the salvation of your souls.” This is the most difficult of the passages on “soul salvation” in the Bible, in my opinion. A casual reading of this text seems to suggest that eternal salvation is in view. This is suggested by the fact that the salvation in question is said

“Soul Salvation,” Part 4 Gaining by Losing – Matthew 16:24–28

April 1, 1992 by Bob Wilkin in Grace in Focus Articles

“Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. For what profit is it to a man if

“Soul Salvation,” Part 3 – Saving Your Soul By Doing Good – James 1:21

February 1, 1992 by Bob Wilkin in Grace in Focus Articles

Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. This verse certainly is confusing for the person who understands it as dealing with how a person obtains eternal salvation from hell. Note the conditions stated. There are two. The first is

The Unbeliever’s Day in Court

February 1, 1992 by Bob Wilkin in Grace in Focus Articles

With some use of imagination, but sticking as closely as possible to the facts of Scripture, we are trying here to reconstruct the unbeliever’s day in court. This is a theological meditation on, and a dramatic presentation of, Rev 20:15. If you are unfamiliar with the text you might wish to study it before reading

“Soul Salvation,” – Part 2 – Saving the Soul of a Fellow Christian – James 5:19-20

January 1, 1992 by Bob Wilkin in Grace in Focus Articles

Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back, let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins. What did James mean in this passage when he spoke of saving the soul

Does Free Grace Turn Heaven into Hell?

January 1, 1992 by Bob Wilkin in Grace in Focus Articles

A few months ago I presented a paper on Gal 5:21 at a meeting of Bible scholars in Kansas City, Missouri. During the question and answer time after my presentation, a striking question was raised. I had suggested in my paper that failure in the Christian life will result in loss of kingdom rewards, not
