Să dorim ca alții să domnească împreună cu Hristos

December 22, 2025 by Ken Yates in Har Gratuit: Păstrează harul în centrul atenției
În Luca 9:49-50 găsim o scenă puțin surprinzătoare. Ioan vede un om care scoate demoni în Numele lui Isus și îi spune să se oprească. Apoi îi explică Domnului că a făcut asta fiindcă acel om „nu mergea după noi”. Expresia „a merge după” are de-a face cu ucenicia. Omul acela nu făcea parte din

2. List do Koryntian 5:21 – ponowne rozważenie

December 22, 2025 by Ken Yates in Jedynie Wiara, czyli darmowa łaska w centrum uwagi - 2. Koryntian 5:9-21, Rzymian 6:1-12, sprawiedliwe życie, sprawiedliwość
Większość ewangelicznie wierzących zna 2. Koryntian 5:21. Werset ten mówi, że Chrystus stał się grzechem, abyśmy mogli stać się sprawiedliwością Bożą w Nim. Najczęstszym sposobem rozumienia tego wersetu jest to, że kiedy człowiek wierzy w Pana Jezusa Chrystusa, wszystkie jego grzechy są przenoszone na Chrystusa Jezusa Pana, a sprawiedliwość Chrystusa jest dana wierzącemu w Chrystusa.

要他人与基督一同掌权

December 22, 2025 by Ken Yates in 聚焦恩典 - 基督审判台(Bema), 奖赏, 路9:46-50
在《路加福音》9:49–50 中,我们看到一段相当耐人寻味的记载。约翰看见有一个人奉基督的名赶鬼,就去阻止他,并告诉主这样做的原因是那个人“没有跟从我们”。这里的“跟从”是一个做门徒用语,意思是那个人并不属于门徒的核心圈子。 这段对话紧接着门徒之间关于“谁最大”的争论(路9:46)。主告诉门徒,若想成为大,就必须奉基督的名接纳那些看似微不足道的人,就像祂所举例的那个孩子一样。 路加希望我们把这两件事联系起来理解。在耶稣告诉门徒:凡是奉祂的名接纳这些微不足道之人的,在祂的国里就是大的之后,第 49 节一开始就是:“约翰说…”约翰是在某种程度上回应耶稣刚刚的教导。 那个赶鬼的人正是这样一个“微不足道的人”。我们甚至不知道他的名字,但他是在“奉基督的名”服事(49 节)。而门徒被吩咐要“为基督的名”接纳像他这样的人(48 节)。 约翰和其他门徒正在争论他们当中谁在天国里最大。而这个人,正是他们若想成为大,就应当接纳的那种信徒。相反,他们却禁止他继续所做的事——禁止他服事主,这恰恰与“为基督的名接纳他”完全相反。 然而,基督却接纳一切为祂做工的信徒,不论他们看起来多么微不足道。当耶稣用孩子作比喻时,祂把孩子拉过来,“叫他站在自己旁边”(47 节),表示孩子与主亲近。后来耶稣提到这个赶鬼的人时,说他是“站在我们这边的”(50 节)。这同样是在表达:这个人是在主的身边,做着主的工作。 这件关于那位无名之人的事件,所揭示的一个重要教训是:作为信徒,我们很容易把注意力放在自己身上。门徒们关心的是他们当中谁会成为最大的那一位。若约翰明白主关于服事那些微不足道之人的教导,那么他提起这位无名之人,很可能是在寻求澄清——主当然不可能是要约翰和其他门徒去接纳、去服事一个并不属于他们团体的人吧。 这个人是在跟随主的,他是一个门徒,是站在主身边的人。门徒们不但不该拦阻他,反而应当鼓励他。 而这里有一个我们很容易忽略的教训:门徒们渴望在天国里为大,那么他们也应当盼望这位无名之人同样为大。 作为明白奖赏重要性的信徒,我们有时会错过这一关键点。渴望在基督的国度里为大,这是一个敬虔的愿望;但我们的祷告也应当是,愿我们身边的信徒同样与基督一同作王。 就像当年的门徒一样,我们可能过于关注自己个人的属灵进展,而忽视了周围人的属灵光景,甚至在无意中伤害了别人的属灵成长。他们本不该禁止那人服事主,而应当接纳他,正如基督接纳了那个孩子,也接纳了这位无名之人。 让我们为生命中的信徒祷告,求神使他们在神的国里为大;也让我们尽己所能,使这一切成为现实。当主再来时,祂必赏赐这样的心态。

Abimelech Reaped What He Sowed 

December 19, 2025 by Ken Yates in Blog - Abimelech, Angels, demons, Fallen Angels, Judges, Judges 9:23
Abimelech was an evil man. He killed sixty-nine of his half-brothers to rule unchallenged over the area around the town of Shechem. The men of Shechem wanted Abimelech to rule over them and supported him in the slaughter of his brothers. These events are recorded in Judges 9.  Judges 9:23 provides an interesting detail about this period. After three years of Abimelech’s rule, the Bible says that “God sent a

Желая, чтобы другие правили со Христом

December 17, 2025 by Ken Yates in Бесплатный дар благодати - Бема, Луки 9:46-50, Награды, Судилище Христово
В Луки 9:49-50 есть весьма странное повествование. Иоанн видит человека, изгоняющего демонов во имя Христа, и говорит ему прекратить. Иоанн говорит Господу, что он сделал это, потому что тот человек “не ходит с нами”. Слово “ходит” относится к ученичеству. Этот человек не состоял в узком кругу учеников Иисуса. Этот разговор следует сразу же за ссорой

Mandelina teologija

December 17, 2025 by Ken Yates in Milost u Fokusu - 2 Timoteju 2:15, Djela 17:11, Galaćanima 3:16, Ivan 21:22-23, Iz 11:6, Nadahnuće
Mandela-efekt je pojava u kojoj se velike skupine ljudi zaklinju da se nešto dogodilo, iako se zapravo to nikada nije dogodilo. Naziv je dobio prema pogrešnom, ali raširenom uvjerenju da je Nelson Mandela umro u zatvoru 1980-ih. Nije umro. No milijuni se sjećaju upravo tako. Postoji mnogo primjera Mandela-efekta. Ljudi se kunu da Monopoly Man

Able to Teach? (1 Timothy 3:2) 

December 17, 2025 by Ken Yates in Blog - 1 Tim 3:2, 2 Tim 2:24, elders, teaching, Titus 1:9
In 1 Timothy 3, Paul gives the requirements for an elder in the church. In v 2, he says that he must be “able to teach” (NKJV). That makes sense. A church leader should be able to teach sound doctrine.  But I have always had some questions about this requirement. Could a man be an elder who

Desear que otros reinen con Cristo

December 16, 2025 by Ken Yates in Su Gracia Gratuita
En Lucas 9:49-50 encontramos un relato bastante extraño. Juan ve a un hombre echando fuera demonios en el nombre de Cristo y le dice que se detenga. Le comenta al Señor que hizo esto porque el hombre “no sigue con nosotros”. La palabra seguir es una palabra de discipulado. Aquel hombre no formaba parte del

Nais Na Ang Iba Ay Magharing Kasama Ni Cristo

December 16, 2025 by Ken Yates in Ang Tinig ng Biyaya
Sa Lukas 9:49-50, may masusumpungan tayong kakatuwang kwento. Nakita ni Juan ang isang lalaking nagpapalayas ng mga demonyo sa pangalan ni Jesus at sinabihan siyang tumigil. Sinabi niya sa Panginoong ginawa niya ito dahil ang lalaki ay “hindi sumasama sa atin.” Ang salitang sumasama ay isang salitang pang-alagad. Ang lalaki ay hindi bahagi ng panloob

Desiderare che altri regnino con Cristo

December 16, 2025 by Ken Yates in Grazia Gratuita - Bema, Luca 9:46-50, Ricompense
In Luca 9:49-50 troviamo un racconto piuttosto strano. Giovanni vede un uomo scacciare i demoni nel nome di Cristo e gli dice di smettere. Dice al Signore che lo ha fatto perché quell’uomo «non ti segue con noi». La parola «seguire» è una parola che indica il discepolato: quell’uomo non faceva parte della cerchia ristretta
