Pursuing What Is Valuable (Proverbs 4:5-7) 

October 28, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - Luke 12:42, Matt 24:45, Prov 8:11, rewards
When somebody sees something that is very valuable, he will pursue it. Before a couple is married, for example, the man will try to impress his girlfriend. He will put in the time and effort to try to convince her that he’s a good catch. The same thing would be true about a person who

Sjediti u prvom redu (Luka 6:17-19)

October 25, 2024 by Ken Yates in Milost u Fokusu - Bema, Luka 6:12-23, Propovijed na gori, Učenik
U Luka 6:20, Gospodin počinje Govor na Gori, važna poruka koja se bavi učeništvom. To nije evanđeoska poruka. Mogli bismo reći da upućuje vjernike kako biti veliki u Kristovom kraljevstvu. Oni koji su veliki u Njegovom kraljevstvu biti će Mu bliži u onaj dan. Oni su također vjernici koji su Mu bliži u ovom životu.

When Two Crowds Collide (Luke 7:11-12) 

October 24, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - Death, Life, Luke 7:11-17, Nain, Resurrection
Luke is the only Gospel that records what the Lord did at the small village of Nain. He stopped a funeral in progress and raised a dead man back to life. I recently noticed something while studying this passage. Luke tells us that a crowd was following Jesus as He approached the town (Luke 7:11).

坐在前排(路6:17-19)

October 23, 2024 by Ken Yates in 聚焦恩典 - 《路加福音》6:12-23, 平地宝训, 贝玛, 门徒
在《路加福音》6:20 中,主开始了平地宝训(Sermon on the Plain),这是一个关于门徒训练的信息。这不是一个传福音的信息。我们可以说,它是指导信徒如何在基督的国度里成为伟大的人。到那日,在祂国里为大的,要更亲近祂。他们也是今生与祂更亲近的信徒。虽然所有信徒都有永生并且永远不会失去,但并不是所有的信徒都以同样的程度享受或经历到这种生命。基督徒可以在现在和永远都有丰富的永生经验(《约》10:10)。 因此,主在讲道一开始就谈到那种信徒是 “有福的”(6:20-23)就不足为奇了。耶稣说,为祂受苦的信徒会得到极大的奖赏。主让想要跟随祂的信徒知道,付出任何的代价都是值得的。 正如我们所预料的,这场布道会的听众都是信徒。《路》说,当耶稣开始讲道时,祂看着 “祂的门徒”(6:20)。《路》是为信徒写的,因此,在这本福音书中,像平地宝训这样的长篇布道理所当然会涉及针对信徒的教导。 然而,最近我看到了这些听众的不同之处。在传讲这些信息之前,主立即上山祷告。在彻夜祷告之后,祂选出了十二个使徒,他们是祂在地上的事工中最亲近祂的人。我们甚至知道他们的名字(6:12-16)。然后,祂召唤这十二个人上山与祂同在。 当祂和十二门徒下山来到平地时,我们得知有一群其他门徒与祂相遇。这些门徒并不是构成基督最亲密的圈子的那十二个门徒,但他们也是他的学生。 但还有另外一群人也在那里。与其他两组人不同,他们没有被称为 “门徒”。他们被称为 “一大群人”。马可说,他们是从各地赶来听祂讲道的人。那天,他们将在平地上得到这样的机会。其中有些人是从很远的地方赶来的。 这群人是由什么样的人组成的呢?那群人中肯定有信徒。耶稣曾传讲祂是基督,并以祂所行的神迹表明祂是基督。这些信徒是专程来聆听他们所知道的那位基督的演讲的。 我不认为我对这个故事做了太多的解读,而把听众中的信徒分成三组。第一组是与主最亲近的人。他们是十二门徒。我们可以说他们坐在前排。在他们后面是一群其他的 “门徒”。这个词的意思是学生,形容那些想要跟随主的人。他们不像十二门徒那样亲近主,但比不是门徒的信徒要更接近主。 在这一大群门徒的背后,还有一些不是门徒的信徒。路加没有这样称呼他们。这幅图画所描绘的是一群比所有被称为门徒的人更远离主的人。我们可以说他们坐在便宜的座位上。 换句话说,当主教导一群信徒时,有些人离祂很近,有些人离祂稍远,还有些人离祂更远。祂在讲道中谈到了那些将在国度里蒙福的人。这种祝福的一部分就是亲近祂的特权。在国度里,有些信徒会比其他人更亲近祂。那些与祂最亲近的人将会是那些听从并顺从祂对他们说的话的人。 在神的国度里,如果能坐在前排,岂不是很好吗?

Digging and Digging Deep (Luke 6:48) 

October 22, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - Bible study, Exegesis, Luke 6:20-49, sermon on the plain
In Luke 6:48, the Lord is concluding His “Sermon on the Plain” (6:20-49). In the sermon, He had told His disciples how they were to live. He told them they needed to do some very difficult things. They needed to be humble, to love their enemies, and to pray for people who mistreated them, to

Așezați în primul rând (Luca 6:17-19)

October 21, 2024 by Ken Yates in Har Gratuit: Păstrează harul în centrul atenției
În Luca 6:20, Domnul începe Predica de pe Câmpie, este un mesaj de ucenicie, nu unul de evanghelizare. Putem spune că îi învață pe credincioși cum să devină mari în Împărăția lui Hristos. Cei care vor fi mari în Împărăția Sa vor fi cei mai apropiați de El în ziua aceea. De fapt, aceștia sunt

Gabinet króla (Daniela 12:12)

October 21, 2024 by Ken Yates in Jedynie Wiara, czyli darmowa łaska w centrum uwagi - Daniela 12:3-13, Nagrody, Ucisk, Wyroki
W USA zbliżamy się do wyborów prezydenckich. Odbędą się one w listopadzie. Prezydent jednak obejmie urząd dopiero w styczniu. Od momentu ogłoszenia go prezydentem do wejścia w życie nowego rządu minie około siedemdziesięciu pięciu dni. Co wydarzy się w ciągu tych siedemdziesięciu pięciu dni? Jedną z najważniejszych rzeczy, które się wydarzą, będzie utworzenie gabinetu przez

Don’t Take That Road (Proverbs 1:10-15) 

October 18, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - Bema, fool, Hebrews 11, Proverbs 1:10-33, wisdom
In high school, I remember reading Robert Frost’s poem, “The Road Not Taken.” It describes Frost’s coming to a fork in the road and having to decide which of the two forest paths he would travel. He chose the one that was less traveled, and it was a great adventure. I suppose the point of

В первом ряду (Луки 6:17-19)

October 16, 2024 by Ken Yates in Бесплатный дар благодати - Луки 6:12-23, Проповедь на равнине, Судилище Христово, Ученик
В Луки 6:20 Господь начинает Свою равнинную проповедь, темой которой выступает ученичество. Эта проповедь не носит евангелистический характер. Можно утверждать, что её цель инструктировать верующих относительно того, как стать великим в царстве Христа. Те, кто станет великим в Его царстве, будет ближе к Нему в вечности. Эти люди будут также ближе к Нему и в

Dispensationalism: It Might Be More Important Than You Think 

October 16, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - Baptism, Dispensationalism, Israel, John the Baptist
One of the characteristics of dispensationalism is that it makes a distinction between Israel and the Church. When you discuss such issues, it is common to hear people say that it is no big deal. We shouldn’t get bent out of shape over such things. There have been a lot of godly men and women

What Is Eschatological Salvation, and Do You Have It?
