What Will Your Legacy Be?

September 1, 2018 by Kenneth Yates in Grace in Focus Articles

By Ken Yates Women received their dead raised to life again. And others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection…others had trial of mockings and scourgings…and imprisonment…were slain with the sword. They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute…of whom the world was not worthy (Heb 11:35-39). Legacy

One of My Heroes: Simon the Zealot

August 23, 2018 by Kenneth Yates in Blog - Mark 3:18; Luke 6:15; Acts 1:13; Simon the Zealot; doctrinal dogmatism

Mark tells us the names of the Lord’s original 12 disciples in Mark 3:16-19. Some of them are better known than others. For example, Peter, Matthew, Judas Iscariot, James, and John are better known than the other seven. With about half of them, we basically know nothing other than that their names are included in

Make Inheriting Your Goal (1 Corinthians 6:10)

July 25, 2018 by Kenneth Yates in Blog - inheriting the Kingdom

Question I am finally coming around to the Free Grace movement. However, I am still so confused about sanctification and why I tend to go backward in areas of my life and forwards at the same time. I have been a Christian for ten years now. I feel that some areas of sin in my

Opposition All Around

July 20, 2018 by Kenneth Yates in Blog - Mark 3:6, Pharisees and Herodians, Rejecting Christ, Unbelief

Then the Pharisees went out and immediately plotted with the Herodians against Him, how they might destroy Him (Mark 3:6). Mark 3:1-6 is the fifth of five encounters Jesus has with religious leaders. None of these encounters go well. Here, in 3:6, we see the conclusion. The religious leaders, the Pharisees, decide that Jesus must die.

You Were Chosen (Ephesians 1:4)

Others were tortured, not accepting deliverance….a better resurrection…of whom the world was not worthy (Heb 11:35-39). I recently had a conversation with some friends about a movie that was recently released. It is an animated film that is based upon a religious holiday in Mexico. That holiday is called the Day of the Dead. The

Chosen By God

May 24, 2018 by Kenneth Yates in Blog

Recently, the topic of predestination has been coming up. Both Shawn and Bob have written books that deal with the topic. In my different travels for GES the subject has been coming up as well fairly regularly. It was brought to my attention that many think that Eph 1:4 proves that God has chosen people

Don’t Add to the Book! — Revelation 22:18

April 16, 2018 by Kenneth Yates in Blog - Revelation

I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues which are written in this book (Rev 22:18). Question. Does Rev 22:18 prove people can lose eternal life? Answer. Thanks for your question. Let me address two issues.

A Mixed Crowd — John 8:33

April 5, 2018 by Kenneth Yates in Blog

Question. Can you elaborate on what you mean when you say that the speakers are not the new believers in John 8:33? I still do not get it. Answer. In chapter 8 Jesus is talking to a large group of people. There are many unbelievers in the crowd (see v 19 and v 23). But
