Nu încerca să impresionezi pe alți credincioși (Leviticul 10:1-3)

February 9, 2026 by Ken Yates in Har Gratuit: Păstrează harul în centrul atenției
Aaron, primul mare preot al lui Israel, tocmai adusese jertfe Domnului. El și Moise intraseră în cortul întâlnirii. Când au ieșit și au binecuvântat poporul, s-a întâmplat ceva extraordinar: focul a coborât din cer și a mistuit jertfa de pe altar. Cum era de așteptat, poporul a fost profund impresionat. Au căzut cu fețele la

Teologia Mandeli

February 9, 2026 by Ken Yates in Jedynie Wiara, czyli darmowa łaska w centrum uwagi - 2. Tymoteusza 2:15, Dzieje 17:11, Galacjan 3:16, Inspiracja, Izajasza 11:6, Jana 21:22-23
Efekt Mandeli to zjawisko, w którym duże grupy ludzi są przekonane, że coś się wydarzyło, choć tak naprawdę nigdy nie miało to miejsca. Nazwa pochodzi od fałszywego, ale powszechnego przekonania, że Nelson Mandela zmarł w więzieniu w latach 80. Nie zmarł. Jednak miliony ludzi tak to pamiętają. Istnieje wiele przykładów efektu Mandeli. Ludzie twierdzą, że

不要去彰显自己(利10:1-3)

February 9, 2026 by Ken Yates in 聚焦恩典 - 利10:1-3, 利9:22-24, 徒9:9-24, 林前3:5-7, 祭司, 西门, 骄傲
亚伦,以色列民族的第一位大祭司,刚刚向耶和华献上了祭物。随后,他与摩西一同进入会幕。当他们从会幕出来并为百姓祝福时,眼前出现了令人震撼的一幕:有火从耶和华面前降下,烧尽了坛上的祭物。正如你所能想象的,当百姓看到这一切时,深受震动,便俯伏在地,高声颂赞耶和华(利未记 9:22–24)。 拿答和亚比户都是亚伦年长的儿子,也在会幕中担任祭司的职分。在我看来,他们应该是信徒。我不认为神会拣选不信的人,作为祂子民大祭司职位的继承人。然而,这两位祭司却做了一件极其愚妄的事。 摩西记载说,他们各人拿着自己的香炉,盛上火,加上香,在耶和华面前献上凡火,是耶和华没有吩咐他们的。 这两个人为什么会违背耶和华的命令呢?摩西并没有说明,但我想我知道原因。他们曾亲眼看到从耶和华而来的火,百姓对此作出的反应。他们知道,神拣选了他们和他们的父亲,在会幕中事奉祂;在他们心中,神是看重他们的,百姓也敬仰他们。 他们想要给百姓留下深刻的印象。他们是“校园里的风云人物”。他们的地位使他们骄傲起来。他们渴望再次得到众人的喝彩。既然神似乎如此看重他们,他们就认为,自己也制造一场“火的显现”是个好主意。 但是,这不是一个明智的决定。的确,又一次有奇妙的火出现了,而且确实是从耶和华而来的——但这火却吞灭了他们。他们当场死亡(《利未记》 10:1–2)。 他们的故事让我想起《使徒行传》8:9–24 中的西门。他是一位初信的信徒。看见彼得和约翰身上所彰显的神迹能力,其他信徒对此感到惊奇,他自己也是如此。于是,他拿钱给彼得,希望彼得能把这种能力给他。西门想要叫人惊叹、仰慕他。 许多人因此断定,拿答、亚比户和西门都是不信的人。我总觉得这样的结论很奇怪。我们不应该对信徒也会渴望被看重、觉得自己重要感到惊讶。由于我们的肉体,我们也会希望其他信徒认为我们很特别。我们当中有多少人,会在被人看作教会中最重要的人时,欣然接受这样的机会呢? 把这三个人简单地归为不信者,实在太容易了。这样一来,我们就可能说服自己:我们绝不会做出如此鲁莽、僭越的事情。神对他们的惩罚是公义的——拿答和亚比户失去了生命,而彼得也警告西门,他正处在同样危险的境地。 骄傲是一件极其可怕的事。如果我们以为自己对骄傲免疫,那我们就是愚昧的。教会是基督的身体,属于祂自己。我们每一个人不过是其中的仆人(《哥林多前书》 3:5–7)。无论我们的角色和恩赐是什么,都当心存满足。 愿我们永远不要试图叫人对自己刮目相看,而是去鼓励别人单单仰望、赞美主。因为,正是祂在拿答和亚比户的时代从天降下火来,也正是祂借着彼得和约翰行了奇妙的作为。

Life in the Catacombs 

February 6, 2026 by Ken Yates in Blog - Assurance, drawing, eternal life, John 4:10, John 4:14
Perhaps you have heard of the Paris Catacombs, a mass grave located in tunnels beneath the city.  In the late 18th century, Parisian cemeteries were overcrowded. The filth from decomposing bodies was seeping into the ground and contaminating food stores and causing serious sanitary issues. In response, entire cemeteries were relocated to the tunnels.   In moving the bodies, identities were lost. Yet when placed in the tunnels, the remains were artistically stacked, creating

Не пытайтесь произвести впечатление на других верующих (Лев 10:1-3)

February 4, 2026 by Ken Yates in Бесплатный дар благодати - 1 Кор 3:5-7, Гордыня, Деян 9:9-24, Лев 10:1-3, Лев 9:22-24, Священники, Симон
Аарон, первый первосвященник израильской нации, только что принес жертву Господу и вместе с Моисеем вошел в скинию. Когда они вышли из скинии и благословили народ, то увидели поразительное зрелище: огонь сошел с небес и пожрал приношение на алтаре. Как Вы, наверное, догадались, при виде такого люди были поражены. Они пали ниц, прославляя Господа (Лев 9:22-24).

Non cercate di fare colpo sugli altri credenti (Levitico 10:1-3)

February 4, 2026 by Ken Yates in Grazia Gratuita - 1 Co 3:5–7, Atti 9:9–24, Le 10:1–3, Levitico 9:22–24, Orgoglio, Sacerdoti, Simone
Aaronne, il primo sommo sacerdote della nazione di Israele, aveva appena offerto alcuni sacrifici al Signore. Insieme a Mosè entrarono nel tabernacolo. Quando uscirono e benedissero il popolo, assistettero ad uno spettacolo incredibile. Il fuoco scese dal cielo e consumò l’offerta sull’altare. Come ci si poteva aspettare, quando il popolo vide ciò, ne rimase colpito.

The Old Testament and Eternal Salvation 

February 4, 2026 by Ken Yates in Blog - 1 Cor 10:6, Col 1:27, Exodus, High Priest, Sacrifices, Tabernacle
Many people think that the central message of the Bible is how to be saved from hell. GES and Grace people have argued otherwise. The vast majority of the NT was written to believers who were already saved from hell. Most of the NT’s teachings concern how believers are to live so they can have intimacy with the Lord now and be rewarded by Him when He

No intentes impresionar a otros creyentes (Levítico 10:1–3)

February 3, 2026 by Ken Yates in Su Gracia Gratuita
Aarón, el primer sumo sacerdote de la nación de Israel, acababa de ofrecer algunos sacrificios al Señor. Él y Moisés entraron en el tabernáculo. Cuando salieron del tabernáculo y bendijeron al pueblo, vieron algo asombroso. Fuego descendió del cielo y consumió la ofrenda sobre el altar. Como es de esperar, cuando el pueblo lo vio,

Huwag Subuking Pahangain Ang Ibang Mga Mananampalataya (Levitico 10:1-3)

February 3, 2026 by Ken Yates in Ang Tinig ng Biyaya
Si Aaron, ang unang mataas na saserdote ng bansang Israel, ay nag-alay pa lang ng ilang handog sa Panginoon. Siya at si Moises ay pumasok sa tabernakulo. Nang lumabas sila mula sa tabernakulo at pinagpala ang mga tao, nakita nila ang isang kamangha-manghang tanawin. Bumaba ang apoy mula sa langit at sinunog ang handog sa

The Calvinist’s Conundrum 

February 2, 2026 by Ken Yates in Blog - depravity, Flesh, Grace, Perseverance, Romans 7, spirit
I recently visited a Sunday school class in which the teacher brought up Romans 7:14-25. In this passage, the Apostle Paul describes a time in his life when he struggled with sin. The teacher rightly noted that this passage has sparked considerable theological debate. Paul states that he wants to do what is right, but repeatedly does the opposite. The question that arises from this description
