Rinunciare alle nostre tradizioni (Tito 1:1-2)

January 18, 2024 by Ken Yates in Grazia Gratuita - Fede, Ga 2:20, Giuda 1, Pietà, Santificazione
Come molte persone che leggono questo blog, ho trascorso gran parte della mia vita frequentando chiese evangeliche. La maggior parte delle persone in queste chiese vede la Bibbia come un libro che ci dice come raggiungere il cielo. È un peccato perché la maggior parte del NT è stata scritta a credenti che possiedono già

Cypress Valley Bible Church in Marshall, TX has been involved in ministry in the country of Moldova for many years. Moldova borders Ukraine, and its history is intimately connected with Russia. Today, it is an independent country. As with most countries, there is very little Free Grace teaching in Moldova. The view that one can

 Children, Tobacco, and Assurance 

January 15, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - Assurance, boldness, Sanctification, Witness
When I was ten years old, I attended a family reunion in Kentucky. Two very distant cousins came to the reunion. They were brothers and were roughly my age. I had never met them, but we had a good time playing in a state park. They were very nice, but they were different. They both

Not Who They Appear to Be  

January 11, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - 2 Cor 11:14-15, 2 Cor 3:18, disguise, false teachers, Jas 1:23-24, Satan
Dave Chappelle is one of the most famous comedians in the world. In his most recent show, he tells the story of meeting another famous comedian, Jim Carrey, who was one of his idols. Carrey was filming a movie in which he played another comedian named Andy Kaufman. Kaufman had recently died. When Chappelle met

稳赚不赔的奖赏

January 10, 2024 by Ken Yates in 聚焦恩典 - 动机, 希11:6, 林前4:5, 犹1:3
当我说永恒奖赏的学说是一个引人入胜的话题时,也许本博客的所有读者都会同意我的观点。这些奖赏包括什么?它们会是什么样子?这些问题在任何涉及到它们的《圣经》学习中都会引起大量讨论。 但这也是一个复杂的话题。我们知道,基督是决定我们所受奖赏的那一位。我们知道祂的审判是完美的。我们还知道,奖赏不会只根据所做的工作量来发放;信徒的动机也将决定每个人得到的奖赏。有些看起来不错的工作不会得到奖赏。有些奖赏也会因为我们作为一个肢体,在我们参加的当地教会中所做的事而得到(林前 3:12-14;4:5;约后 1:8-9)。 当我们读到这些规定时,我想我们会理所应当地得出这样的结论:由于许多原因,我们不知道我们每个人将得到什么样的奖赏。我们可能会想,我们所参与的某项事工——无论是个人还是地方聚会中的团体——是否讨主喜悦。我曾听到许多信徒问,主是否会奖赏某项活动。正如保罗在《哥林多前书》第 4 章中所说,在许多方面,我们只需等到主再来,站在基督的审判台前。 尽管我是战战兢兢地说出这番话的,但我认为,我们所做的有些事情是一定会得到回报的。我们可以称之为 “稳赚不赔“。犹大书第三节告诉我们要 “为信仰(faith)竭力争辩“。信仰一词指的是主和祂的使徒所传下来的教义。 这些教义的主要部分包括永恒安全和确保安全,以及本博客的主题——奖赏。事实上,《希伯来书》的作者说,除非我们相信神会奖赏那些忠于祂的人,否则就不可能讨神的喜悦(希 11:6)。 我非常感谢 GES 的事工,因为它强调了信心的这些方面,就是信徒会一劳永逸地得救。几乎所有本博客的读者都意识到,大多数基督教国家都不宣扬信徒的永恒保障。相信时得救也没有保证。事实上,这些教义常常被嘲笑、贬低,甚至被视为异端邪说。教导主将在祂的国度里以更大的荣耀和权力来奖赏为祂所做的工作,也被嘲笑为自私。 但我知道,你们大多数人都在为这些事情 “恳切地争辩”。“争辩 ”一词意味着战斗。这是一场战斗。如果你们教导这些东西,你们就是明显的少数派。仅这一点就会引起许多人对你们的攻击。他们指出,你不可能是对的,因为相信这些教义的人太少了。他们指责你制造分裂。你们就像电影《300》中的斯巴达人。斯巴达人有 300 名士兵,他们与薛西斯率领的波斯军队及其 30 万士兵作战。波斯人甚至还有食人魔、大象和其他各种武器。 确信是信仰的本质,永生永远不会失去。与此同时,行为也很重要,因为它们会带来永恒的奖赏,甚至超过永生的恩赐。我想有些人可能会认为,这些观点是出于错误的动机来教导他们的。但在我看来,这太疯狂了,也太罕见了。错误的动机是什么呢?只有受虐狂才会这么做。 当我听到人们宣讲如此美妙的真理时,我选择相信。他们这样做是因为他们想要忠实地教导新约的教导。他们这样做是因为他们想荣耀主。当我看到有人这样做时,我相信我是在看他们做一件一定会得到回报的事。这几乎是万无一失的事。这应该会鼓励绝大多数阅读本博客的人。

The Historical Jesus (Luke 3:1-2) 

January 9, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - Annas, Caiaphas, Herod Antipas, Inspiration, Pontius Pilate, Tiberias
When we read liberal theologians, we often run into the phrase “the historical Jesus.” What they mean is that the Jesus we read about in the NT is not the Person who really existed. The people who wrote the Bible changed the things He said in some cases, then embellished His actions. For example, He

Гарантированная награда

January 5, 2024 by Ken Yates in Бесплатный дар благодати - 1 Кор 4:5, Евр 11:6, Иуды 1:3, Мотивация
Наверняка все читатели этого блога согласятся со мной, если я скажу, что доктрина вечных наград это увлекательная тема. Что это будут за награды? Какими они будут? Вопросы, касающиеся доктрины вечных наград, вызывают бурные дискуссии во время любого библейского изучения. Тем не менее, это также и сложная тема. Мы знаем, что наши награды будет определять Христос.

A Christian Atheist (Romans 1:32)

January 5, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - Conscience, morality, Rom 1:26-32
Polls tell us that the number of self-described atheists in the United States is growing. The writings and teachings of leaders in a movement known as New Atheism have had an enormous impact, especially among the young. Christopher Hitchens, Richard Dawkins, and Sam Harris are a few of these leaders. When some of these men

Una recompensa segura

January 4, 2024 by Ken Yates in Su Gracia Gratuita - 1 Cor 4:5, Heb 11:6, Judas 1:3, Motivos
Probablemente, todos los lectores de este blog estarán de acuerdo conmigo cuando digo que la doctrina de las recompensas eternas es un tema fascinante. ¿En qué consistirán estas recompensas? ¿Cómo serán? Son cuestiones que suscitan un gran debate en cualquier estudio bíblico que las aborde. Pero también es un tema complicado. Sabemos que Cristo es

Tiyak na gantimpala

January 4, 2024 by Ken Yates in Ang Tinig ng Biyaya
Marahil lahat ng mambabasa ng blog na ito ay sasang-ayon na ang doktrina ng walang hanggang gantimpala ay isang kahanga-hangga paksa. Ano kaya ang kabilang sa mga gantimpalang ito? Ano kaya ang itsura ng mga ito? Ang mga ito ay mga isyung tinatalakay nang husto sa anumang pag-aaral ng Biblia patungkol sa mga ito. Ngunit
