Second Corinthians 5:21 Reconsidered 

June 5, 2025 by Ken Yates in Blog - 2 Cor 5:9-21, righteous living, righteousness, Rom 6:10-12
Most Evangelicals are familiar with 2 Cor 5:21. The verse says that Christ was made sin so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. The most common way of understanding this verse is that when a person believes in Jesus, all his sins are placed on Christ, and Christ’s righteousness is given

Плата за грех

June 4, 2025 by Ken Yates in Бесплатный дар благодати - Ик 1:13-15; Ин 3:16; 5:24, Пр 28:1, Притчи, Рим 6:23
Внимательные студенты Божьего Слова обратили мое внимание на смертельные последствия греха. Большинство евангельских христиан утверждают, что грехи являются причиной, по которой некоторые люди окажутся в озере огненном. Это не так. Человек, оказавшийся в озере огненном, будет там, потому что не уверовал в Иисуса Христа ради вечной жизни (Ин 3:16; 5:24). Грех, тем не менее, это

Kada nas pravedna osoba razočara (2. Timoteju 4:10)

June 4, 2025 by Ken Yates in Milost u Fokusu - 2. Petrova 2:20-22, 2. Timoteju 4:10, Dema, Izreke, Izreke 25:25-26
Mnogi ljudi u crkvama danas vjeruju da istinski vjernik ne može moralno posrnuti – barem ne previše. Prema njihovoj teologiji, ako takva osoba posrće dulje vrijeme, takvo što pokazuje da je ta osoba zapravo lažni vjernik. Međutim, oni koji razumiju Božju milost znaju da je takva teologija besmislica. Biblija uči da vjernik može doživjeti pad

La paga del pecado

June 3, 2025 by Ken Yates in Su Gracia Gratuita - Juan 3:16; 5:24, Prov 28:1, Proverbios, Rom 6:23, Sant 1:13-15
Estudiantes diligentes de la Palabra de Dios me han señalado las consecuencias mortales del pecado. La mayoría de los evangélicos afirma que los pecados envían a una persona al lago de fuego. Eso no es cierto. Una persona es enviada al lago de fuego porque no creyó en Jesús para vida eterna (Juan 3:16; 5:24).

Ang Kabayaran Ng Kasalanan

June 3, 2025 by Ken Yates in Ang Tinig ng Biyaya
Tinuro sa akin ng mga maingat na estudyante ng Salita ng Diyos ang mga nakamamataya na konsekwensiya ng kasalanan. Maraming Evangeliko ang nagsasabing ang mga kasalanan ang magdadala ng tao sa lawa ng apoy. Hindi totoo iyan. Ang taong tinapon sa lawa ng apoy ay naroon dahil hindi sila nanampalataya kay Jesus para sa buhay

Pray or Sleep? 

June 3, 2025 by Ken Yates in Blog - 2 Cor 3:18, Gethsemane, glory, Heb 4:16, Luke 9:28-32, Mount of Transfiguration
All three Synoptic Gospels discuss the Mount of Transfiguration, but only Luke mentions that the disciples went to sleep on the mountain. He is also the only one who reports that Christ prayed while the disciples slept (Luke 9:28-29, 32). Why was Jesus praying? He was setting an example for the disciples. He had just

Il salario del peccato

June 3, 2025 by Ken Yates in Grazia Gratuita - Gm 1:13-15, Gv 3:16; 5:24, Pr 28:1, Proverbi, Rm 6:23
Attenti studiosi della Parola di Dio mi hanno fatto notare le conseguenze mortali del peccato. La maggior parte degli evangelici sostiene che i peccati mandino una persona nello stagno di fuoco, ma non è vero. Una persona viene gettata nello stagno di fuoco perché non ha creduto in Gesù per avere la vita eterna (Giovanni

Când o persoană neprihănită dezamăgește (2 Timotei 4:10)

June 2, 2025 by Ken Yates in Har Gratuit: Păstrează harul în centrul atenției
Mulți oameni din bisericile de astăzi cred că un adevărat credincios nu poate eșua din punct de vedere moral — sau, cel puțin, nu în mod grav. Dacă o astfel de persoană „se abate” de la credință pentru o perioadă mai lungă, potrivit teologiei lor, aceasta dovedește că este un fals credincios. Însă cei care

当义人让人失望(提后4:10)

June 2, 2025 by Ken Yates in 聚焦恩典 - 底马, 彼后2:20-22, 提后4:10, 箴25:25-26, 箴言
今天许多教会中的人相信,真正的信徒在道德上不会失败,至少不会失败得太严重。按照他们的神学理解,如果一个人“灵性滑落”很长一段时间,那就说明他是假冒的信徒。 但那些明白神恩典的人知道,这种神学是荒谬的。《圣经》教导我们,信徒在基督徒生活中可能会失败——甚至可能长期、严重地失败。这其中包括那些曾经顺服主、过着敬虔生活的信徒。 底马就是一个众所周知的例子。他曾是教会中忠心的仆人,与保罗一同参与宣教旅程。但后来他爱上了这个世界,在保罗最需要他的时候离弃了他(提后4:10)。彼得也写道,成熟的信徒也可能跌倒(彼后2:20-22)。 信徒的跌倒并不意味着失去永生。但代价是什么呢?本博客的读者通常会很快给出《圣经》的答案:这样的信徒会失去永恒的奖赏,并在今生遭受神的管教。这些都是正确的。 但还有另一个后果,我们很少提到:这样的道德失败会对其他信徒产生负面影响。我会用“令人失望”这个词来表达,但其实还有其他的词汇也适合表达这样的感受。 当底马离开保罗、去了帖撒罗尼迦时,那城里的信徒看到他会作何感想?如果他们曾认识他,知道他曾忠心服事主,那他现在的样子一定令他们非常沮丧。那些曾认识他过去的非信徒则可能会拿底马当笑柄,讥讽帖撒罗尼迦的基督徒。他们可能会说底马终于“开窍”了,明白了敬虔的生活是多么愚蠢。他们会说,底马曾追随保罗实在是个傻瓜,今天终于“聪明”地离开了那种生活。对帖撒罗尼迦的信徒来说,这样的议论一定难以回应。 所罗门在《箴言》25章25-26节中也表达了类似的看法。他提到,疲惫的人喝到冷水是何等清凉畅快。但也有另一种水:你能想象喝下被污染的水或满是泥沙的溪水是什么感觉吗? 所罗门把这两种情况作了对比。他说,喝到纯净的冷水就像听到了好消息,会让人振奋、喜乐。 而喝到污染的水则相反,就像收到了坏消息。但所罗门具体指出,他所说的“坏消息”是“义人在恶人面前屈服”。这个比喻非常生动。当我们看到一位义人跌倒,就像期待清凉甘甜的水,却发现它又脏又臭。那会让人多么失望! 我们往往以为我们的属灵生活只影响我们自己,这是错误的。我们的生活会影响他人。一个信徒——尤其是曾经忠心、成熟的信徒——若陷入罪中,会对其他信徒造成负面影响。包括他的家人、朋友和教会中的弟兄姐妹。当他们目睹自己亲近之人的失败时,就像喝下了被污染的水。 主教导我们要彼此相爱,尤其要爱我们的弟兄姐妹。但我们可能没有意识到,一个“灵性滑落”的基督徒并没有爱别人。他只是在为自己而活。底马就是这样做的。 总结:我们对基督里的弟兄姐妹有责任。愿我们的生命就像炎炎夏日中的一杯凉水。如果我们忠心地服事主并服事其他信徒,我们的生命就会带来这样的清凉。让我们不要让他们失望。

Когда праведный человек разочаровывает (2 Тим 4:10)

May 28, 2025 by Ken Yates in Бесплатный дар благодати - 2 Пе 2:20-22, 2 Тим 4:10, Димас, Пр 25:25-26, Притчи
В наши дни многие люди верят, что истинный верующий не может совершить аморальный поступок, или, по крайней мере, слишком аморальный. Согласно их богословию если верующий «отступает от веры» на длительный период, это показывает, что он — лжеверующий. Те, кто понимают Божью благодать, знают, что такого рода богословие это бессмыслица. Библия учит, что верующий может потерпеть
