Una concezione sbagliata del Signore – Luca 19:21

April 23, 2024 by Ken Yates in Grazia Gratuita
Nei giorni scorsi, durante una lezione di Scuola Domenicale, stavamo analizzando la parabola delle dieci mine in Luca 19:11-27. In questa parabola ci sono tre servi del Signore che danno conto di come Lo hanno servito mentre aspettavano il Suo ritorno. È evidente che tutti e tre i servi sono credenti. È anche chiaro che

Watch Out for Greed 

April 23, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - 2 Pet 2:14-16, Balaam, Greed, Numbers 22–24
One of the most interesting people in the OT is a man by the name of Balaam. His story is found in Numbers 22–24. He is a prophet, and God communicates with him. However, he also loves money. This love for money causes him to do some dumb things. He offers his services to a

固执的神学

April 22, 2024 by Ken Yates in 聚焦恩典 - 《罗马书》10章, 白白恩典
我们家的一个朋友最近开始在专注于基督教的一个青少年事工中工作。她告诉他们,她相信恩典福音,并享受 GES 的事工。这个青少年事工声称同意《圣经》关于恩典的教导。但我们的朋友注意到,在某些方面,事工中的人对恩典并不清楚。她认为自己也许能让这些问题变得更加清晰。该事工的员工每周都会进行《圣经》学习,她认为这可以提供一个很好的机会来讨论白白恩典如何影响《圣经》中的不同经文。 GES 最近在乔治亚州召开了一次会议。我们的朋友在会上提供了帮助。会议主题涉及福音派信徒中常被误解的词语。其中一个讨论领域是白白恩典神学如何影响《罗马书》第 10 章。鲍勃·威尔金(Bob Wilkin)有一个关于《罗马书》第 10 章的视频,我们的朋友急于与她在青少年事工的朋友们讨论这一信息。她与他们分享了鲍勃的视频。 然而,事工的负责人对他听到的内容表示担忧。他对白白恩典神学进行了深入研究,并表示他不喜欢他的发现。在一系列会面中,他告诉我们的朋友,恩典福音协会(GES)是“边缘”、“固执”的,并暗示我们是异端,不可能教导真理。在他看来,情况显然是这样的,因为他找了几十本关于《罗马书》的注释,这些注释都不同意鲍勃(和白白恩典)的观点。他承认,鲍勃显然对《圣经》进行了大量的研究,但没有必要详细研究任何经文,因为大多数注释者已经说过了。 这位负责人还说,白白恩典传讲的是不符合《圣经》的福音。如果有人犯了非常严重的罪,比如否认信仰,他们就不能 “上天堂”。他似乎在说,如果这样的人是信徒,他们就会失去他们永恒的救恩。然后,他告诉我们的朋友,因为她的恩典信仰,她不能再参与他们的事工了。 我们的朋友和我们都可以从她的经历中学到一些教训。我知道,很多读过这篇博客的人已经知道我要说什么了。但这对每个人都是一个很好的提醒。如果你是刚刚了解白白恩典的教导的,如果主推迟祂的到来,那么你很快自己就会意识到这些事情。 首先,基督教中的人们经常使用相同的词语,但对其含义却有不同的理解。教师会使用恩典这个词,但他们对恩典的定义是不正确的。如果你是白白恩典派,你就会知道恩典的意思是“绝对免费”,与行为无关。然而,许多人却把行为混入他们的定义中,从而用恩典来表达与《圣经》完全相反的意思。这个青少年事工的领导者就证明了这一事实。他说,不信的人因恩典而得救;然而,如果这个人后来做了坏事,就证明他从未得救。恩典的含义被彻底改变了。 第二,如果你教导恩典,就会遭到反对。这位事工的负责人讲出了一个事实:大多数教师/传道人/书籍都反对白白恩典。要想诚实地宣讲因信基督而得永生是不会失去的,这不受到质疑是不可能的。我们家的朋友很年轻,她很早就学到了这一课。 第三,基督教中的许多人不注重释经。他们变得像《新约》中的法利赛人一样。为了确定什么是真理,法利赛人求助于过去和现在的一些伟大的拉比的言论。白白恩典神学常常遭到拒绝,因为绝大多数福音派教师都不教导白白恩典神学。如果大多数人不同意恩典,那么恩典就不可能是真理。 最后,在神学上保持固执是一件好事。白白恩典神学常常因为不愿意接受关于永生福音的其他观点而受到攻击。我们被告知,如果有人相信你可能会失去你的救恩,或者你必须用行为来证明你已经得到救恩,或者你在死后才能得到最终的救恩,这都没什么大不了的。在他们看来,白白恩典的人都是固执的人,无法与他人合作。 但我朋友参与的事工的这个故事也表明,这种情况是双向的。那些神学观点占多数人也是固执的,他们也应该如此。如果这个事工的负责人相信一个人会失去他的救恩,那么他告诉我们的朋友不再欢迎她与他们一起工作就是正确的。基督教中大多数人所传扬的福音与恩典格格不入。我想说的是,那些指责 GES 是固执的人自己也是固执的人。我很感激这个事工的负责人认识到了这个问题的重要性。 白白恩典神学是研究《圣经》的结果。如果你参与教导,你就会有和我们这位朋友类似的经历。我很高兴她亲身经历了白白恩典经常遇到的反对。我知道我们中的许多人看到她的遭遇后会说:“我也经历过,我也这样做过。”

Working Out at the Gym 

April 18, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - 2 Pet 2:14, Heb 5:14, Sanctification
I’ve visited a lot of gyms in my life, in both the military and the civilian world. Even though I’m not one of them, I’m sure that you, like me, have seen muscle-bound men and women who frequent such establishments. We’re also aware that many other people use these gyms who, as a result of

Негибкое богословие

April 17, 2024 by Ken Yates in Бесплатный дар благодати - Бесплатная благодать, Римлянам 10
Наш друг семьи недавно начала работать на христианское служение, деятельность которого сосредоточено на молодежи. Она сказал им, что верит в евангелие благодати и что ей нравится служение GES. Данное молодежное служение утверждает, что оно согласно с библейским учением о благодати. Но наш друг заметила, что в некоторых аспектах у них нет ясного понимания, что такое

TEOLOHIYANG HINDI NABABALUKTOT

April 16, 2024 by Ken Yates in Ang Tinig ng Biyaya
Isang kaibigan ng pamilya ang kamakaila’y nagsimulang magtrabaho sa isang Cristianong ministry na nakatuon sa mga Kabataan. Sinabi niya sa kanilang naniniwala siya sa evangelio ng biyaya at nasisiyahan siya sa ministri ng GES. Hinayag ng ministri sa mga kabataang sang-ayon sila sa turo ng Biblia patungkol sa biyaya. Ngunit napansin ng aming kaibigang sa

Una teologia intransigente

April 15, 2024 by Ken Yates in Grazia Gratuita - Grazia Gratuita, Romani 10
Recentemente, un’amica di famiglia ha iniziato a lavorare con un ministero cristiano che si dedica ai giovani. Ha detto loro che crede nel Vangelo della grazia e che ammira il ministero GES (Grace Evangelical Society). Questo ministero della gioventù sostiene di essere d’accordo con l’insegnamento biblico sulla grazia, ma la nostra amica ha notato che

Different Voices in the Crowd 

April 11, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - eternal life, Luke 19:38, Mark 11:9, Psalm 118
When someone in the NT speaks to a crowd, who do you think is in that crowd? For example, when Paul, in the Book of Acts, speaks in a synagogue over a period of weeks, do some of the people come to faith over time, or do they all remain unbelievers and eventually run him

Keep Grace in Focus at Christmas

I recently came across a rather disturbing bit of folklore: The Icelandic Yule Lads (Jólasveinar). It’s a 17th-century tale of thirteen figures, or lads, each representing a different threat, who arrive on the days leading up to Christmas. One is called Spoon-Licker. He represents the...
