Ang Galit Ng Panginoon Sa Kaniyang Bayan (Marcos 10:14)

July 16, 2024 by Ken Yates in Ang Tinig ng Biyaya
Kamakailan ay nagkaroon ako ng pribilehiyong maging bahagi ng isang kumperensiya sa Biblia tungkol sa paksa ng gantimpala at Hukuman ni Cristo. Nagtuturo ako tungkol sa Parabula ng Mga Talento sa Mat 25:14-30. Ang parabulang ito ay minsang kontrobersiyal dahil dito mariing sinaway ng Panginoon ang isa sa Kaniyang mga lingkod. Ang resulta, marami ang

Lessons from the Mount of Transfiguration (Mark 9:7)

July 15, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - Approval, Bema, glory, Reward
Many years ago I read an article as part of a class I attended on the Gospel of Mark. The article was about the Mount of Transfiguration, and I still remember a couple of points it made. I think they stuck with me because I had never considered these ideas. One point was that the

Emphasizing the Important Things

July 11, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - Acts 10:15, Acts 15:5, circumcision, Eph 2:14-16, Judaizers
Luz Long and Jesse Owens were polar opposites. Long was a German Nazi and looked the part. He was blond, white, and an educated lawyer. Owens was a black American who grew up in poverty under segregation. In the 1936 Olympics, held in Berlin, Luz and Owens competed against each other in the long jump.

The Lord Loves Persistence

July 9, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - Bartimaeus, Luke 18:1-8, Mark 10:46-52, Mark 7:24-30, Prayer
Anybody who has had children knows they can nag you. They will ask for something over and over and over again. It can be really irritating. Sometimes, we even have to warn them not to ask us for whatever they want one more time. Believers are children of the Lord. What does He think when

The Prayers of Our Lord (Mark 6:46-48)

July 4, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - feeding of multitude, Heb 7:25, Mark 6:45-52
Even though the Lord prayed often, Mark records only three specific times when He prayed (1:35; 6:46; 14:32). All three times were at night. On all three occasions, the Lord withdrew to be by Himself. Each time of prayer was also a reminder that He had come to suffer. For example, the third time Jesus

在健身房健身

July 3, 2024 by Ken Yates in 聚焦恩典 - 《希伯来书》5:14, 《彼得后书》2:14, 分别为圣
我一生中去过很多健身房,既有军用的也有民用的。虽然我不是其中一员,但我相信你和我一样,也见过经常光顾这些健身房的肌肉男和肌肉女。我们也知道,还有很多人使用这些健身房,他们由于使用健身房的这些设施,他们可能处于不同的健身阶段。也许有些人是新手,而有些人则非常认真地锻炼。我们也意识到,许多其他使用这些健身房的人, 通过利用这些设施,让他们处于不同的健身阶段。也许他们不熟悉这个过程。有些人非常重视锻炼。你可以看出一个人在几个月或几年的时间里一直在锻炼。 《新约》告诉我们,每个人都使用健身房。彼得和《希伯来书》的作者使用了一个动词,它被翻译为“训练”,我们的“健身房”一词就由此而来。也许我们可以翻译为“使用健身房”。这些经文告诉我们,有些人使用的健身房我们可以称之为“不道德星球”。另一些人则使用的健身房我们称之为“道德星球”。 彼得描述的是那些在“不道德星球”上健身的人,并且他们非常有经验。他指的是那些假教师,他们堕落的肌肉一目了然。他们炫耀自己的淫乱和贪婪。他说他们无法停止犯罪,并鼓励他人效仿他们。他们之所以变成这样,是因为他们的心在这些活动中得到了“训练”。就好像他们去健身房锻炼这些品质一样(《彼后》2:14)。他们擅长变坏。他们是不道德的阿诺德·施瓦辛格。 《希伯来书》的作者谈到了经常去另一个健身房——道德星球的人。他说的是那些学习上帝的话语并将其付诸实践的信徒。《圣经》就像一组砝码。当这些信徒用上帝的话语“撸铁”时,他们的感官就得到了“锻炼”或“训练(train)”(与《彼后》2:14 中所用的词相同,中文版本译为‘习惯’)。他们的心思经过操练,能够辨别善恶(《来》5:14)。如果我们能看到他们属灵的肌肉,我们就会看到他们能够做那些讨主喜悦的事。他们就是道德中的阿诺德·施瓦辛格。 从这两段经文中我们很容易看出。我们通过实践来培养某些品质,就像一个体格健壮的人通过举重会变得更加健壮一样。这可能是消极的,也可能是积极的。 但我们不能认为只有非信徒才会造访“不道德星球”。彼得警告他信主的读者,他们可能会被那些有着巨大“犯罪肌肉 ”的非信徒所愚弄。当涉及到性不道德和贪婪时,这些信徒可以选择跟随那些强壮而有经验的人。信徒们可以在“不道德星球”锻炼身体,并熟练使用它们。尽管信徒永远不会失去永生,但他们有能力犯下任何非信徒可能犯下的罪和不道德行为。 我称之为“不道德星球”的健身房里挤满了人。所有非信徒都在那里锻炼。有些人在他们显而易见的不道德行为上比其他人放纵。不幸的是,许多基督徒也来这里锻炼。 但作为基督徒,我们拥有另一个健身房的会员资格。我们有特权去那里锻炼,使自己的属灵状态得到提升。这种提升会有不同的层次。当人们审视我们的生活时,但愿他们很容易就能看出我们一直在用上帝话语的重量锻炼身体。我们祷告,愿我们信主的时间越长,我们属灵的肌肉就越发达。

Seek and You Will Find

July 1, 2024 by Ken Yates in Grace in Focus Articles
By Ken Yates Introduction From time to time, I hear someone teach the strange idea that unbelievers cannot seek God. Now, left solely to mankind’s devices, that would certainly be the case. But God loves and reaches out to the whole world. Because of His initiative, unbelievers can indeed seek Him. Acts 17:27 is one

Тренируясь в спортзале

June 28, 2024 by Ken Yates in Бесплатный дар благодати - 2 Пе 2:13, Евр 5:14, Освящение
Я побывал во многих спортзалах за свою жизнь как в армии, так и вне её. Хотя это не про меня, я уверен, что Вы так же как и я видели накачанных мужчин и женщин, посещающих такие места. Также очевидно, что многие другие, кто ходит в спортзал, находятся на разных стадиях физической подготовки благодаря своим занятиям

Hacer ejercicio en el gimnasio

June 27, 2024 by Ken Yates in Su Gracia Gratuita - 1 Pe 2:14, Heb 5:14, Santificación
He visitado muchos gimnasios en mi vida, tanto en el ámbito militar como en el civil. Aunque no soy uno de ellos, estoy seguro de que tú, como yo, has visto hombres y mujeres musculosos que frecuentan estos establecimientos. También sabemos que muchas otras personas usan estos gimnasios y, como resultado, están en diferentes etapas

Nagsasanay Sa Gym

June 27, 2024 by Ken Yates in Ang Tinig ng Biyaya
Marami na akong nabisitang gym sa aking buhay, sa mundo man ng militari o sa sibilyan man. Bagama’t hindi ako kabilang sa kanila, sigurado akong kagaya ko, nakakita na kayo ng mga maskuladong lalaki at babaeng madalas sa mga establisimiyentong ito. Batid din nating maraming gumagamit ng mga gym na ito, dahil na rin sa

What Is Eschatological Salvation, and Do You Have It? 

I don’t remember hearing the expression eschatological salvation when I was studying at Dallas Theological Seminary. But over the past thirty years or so I’ve noticed that expression occurring increasingly in the commentary literature. Some pastors are...
