Cuando las malas noticias son buenas (Jeremías 30-33)

October 27, 2022 by Ken Yates in Su Gracia Gratuita - Consolación, Disciplina, Hebreos 12:7, Jeremías
Cuando se leen comentarios sobre el libro de Jeremías, los capítulos 30-33 suelen llamarse el Libro de la Consolación. Esto se debe a que esos capítulos contienen muy buenas noticias para los judíos. Hablan de cuando Cristo regresará, establecerá su reino, les dará un nuevo pacto y los reunirá de todas las naciones del mundo.

Purple Water Is Not Good

October 27, 2022 by Ken Yates in Grace in Focus Articles
By Ken Yates INTRODUCTION Many years ago, I attended a summer camp for Boy Scouts near an Army post. It had a large swimming pool. The Army provided soldiers as lifeguards. These soldiers warned us about what would happen if we misused the pool water. They told us that the Army had put a chemical

Are We Grateful?

October 27, 2022 by Ken Yates in Grace in Focus Articles
By Ken Yates INTRODUCTION For nine days in August, I had the opportunity to conduct a pastors’ conference in Kenya. On the weekends, I was able to speak in three different churches. On one Saturday, I led a Bible study in which various smaller studies came together to discuss the parables of Christ. As you

Can We Slow Down Just a Little? 

October 26, 2022 by Ken Yates in Blog - Death, Fellowship, Flesh, Sin
We have all seen self-destructive behavior. Perhaps it was an alcoholic who continued to drink, even after a number of DUI’s, destroyed marriages, etc. Or perhaps it was a drug abuser who continued that abuse even after the drug had destroyed their life. In cases like that, most of us look at the situation and

Dall’argilla al Vaso (Ebrei 3:13)

October 24, 2022 by Ken Yates in Grazia Gratuita - Indurimento, Peccato, Pentimento, Ricompense
Chiunque studia il libro di Geremia troverà in esso qualcosa di frustrante. È difficile comprendere quando viene detto ciò che il profeta dice. Le cose non sono scritte in ordine cronologico. Profetizzò durante il regno di diversi re, e il lettore troverà difficile determinare quale passaggio si applica a quale re. Alcune volte, nel libro,

What It Was Like to Be Tossed Out of Paradise? (Genesis 3:24) 

October 24, 2022 by Ken Yates in Blog - Adam, beasts, Second Adam, wilderness
When I was in the military, we would often go on field exercises. Basically, we would live in the woods for a period of time. The kind of units I was in did not take a lot of equipment. As a result, in the “field,” I did not have a shower. There was no hot

Темнота у креста: Часть 3 (Марка 15:33)

October 19, 2022 by Ken Yates in Бесплатный дар благодати - Власть греха, Израиль, Крест, Суд, Царство
Во второй части этой серии, я представил два популярных взгляда на тьму, присутствовавшую у креста Христа. Хотя в этих точках зрения присутствует некая истина, я считаю, что существует альтернатива, которая лучшим образом соответсвует контексту в 15 главе Марка. Существует два ключевых момента, помогающих согласиться с этой альтернативой. Первый – это надлежащее понимание предположения о том,

Voi non prendete il peccato sul serio! (Romani 3:8)

October 19, 2022 by Ken Yates in Grazia Gratuita - Opere, Peccato, Pentimento, Vita Eterna
Un po’ di tempo fa, insegnavo in un istituto Biblico all’estero. Gli studenti erano giovani, tra i 18 e i 20 anni. Via via che andavano avanti le lezioni, fu chiaro che c’erano dei problemi con il vangelo della vita eterna. Decisi di sospendere il programma in corso per risolvere questo problema. Chiesi agli studenti

What Does “Wages” Mean in Romans 6:23? 

October 19, 2022 by Ken Yates in Blog - Death, Life, Sin, wages
One of the most well-known verses in the NT is Rom 6:23, where Paul states that, “…the wages of sin is death.” While most people think Paul is talking about what sends a person to the lake of fire, that’s not the case. In chapter six, Paul is talking about what sin does in the

十字架的黑暗:第三部分(可15:33)

October 19, 2022 by Ken Yates in 聚焦恩典 - 以色列, 十字架, 国度, 审判, 罪的权势
在本系列的第二部分中,我讨论了理解基督十字架上的黑暗的两种流行方式。虽然这些观点有一些道理,但我认为还有更好的选择。这个选择更符合《马可福音》15章的背景。要接受这种观点,有两个关键。第一个是在《马可福音》15:34中对基督被父所弃的正确理解。第二个是审判的概念。 可15:34中主的呼求直接来自诗22:1。基督大声呼喊,疑惑天父为何离弃他。(这篇《诗篇》在15:24和15:29-32中有提及)。诗22:14-17描述了钉死在十字架上的场景。值得注意的是,这诗篇的结尾是上帝在第一节(《诗篇》22:22-25)中拯救了那个呼喊的人。这是对可16:1-8中基督复活的期待。当基督引用诗篇的第一节时,整个诗篇就在眼前。这呼求是为十字架上义人的胜利呼喊,不是为被神离弃而呼求。 《诗篇》22:4-5特别重要。它讲述了上帝如何将犹太人从埃及解救出来。其中一种方法就是通过埃及的黑暗瘟疫(出埃及记10:22)。它持续了三天。在十字架上,黑暗持续了三个小时。在黑暗的瘟疫之后,埃及人经历了长子的死亡。神的长子死在十字架上。埃及的黑暗是上帝审判这个国家的征兆。在这里,由于基督的死,以色列民族拒绝了他们的王。所发生的一切都指向十字架,所发生的一切,都呼求着审判。地上的黑暗是因着他们罪而将要临到他们的审判的记号。这次审判发生在公元70年。 《马可福音》以施洗约翰开始,然后耶稣自己将神的国给了那一代犹太人(1:15)。然而,从他们的领袖开始,很明显他们会拒绝这个提议(3:6,22;6:6,27;8:31;9:31;10:33-34)。因为他们的拒绝并且他们杀死了王,神将严厉审判这个国家。这是约翰和耶稣号召整个国家悔改的内在要求。如果他们悔改,他们就会得到祝福。如果他们不这样做,神就会管教这个国家。 但黑暗不仅仅是即将的审判信息要临到这个国家。它还涉及到一个审判,涉及到门徒的生命。 当主开始祂的事奉时,祂不仅把国赐给以色列人,还遇到了撒旦(可1:12-13)。当然,撒旦是把罪带到世上的罪魁祸首。从那时起,人类就被罪恶的力量所奴役。罪也意味着每个人都会死。这是人因罪所受的咒诅。 很明显,在十字架上,基督承担了世人的罪(约1:29;林后5:21)。在路22:53中,当基督离开客西马尼园去完成祂被派去完成的工作时,祂把那个时刻称为“黑暗掌权了”。这几乎可以肯定是指撒旦。正如主在开始祂的事奉时面对撒旦一样,祂将在事奉结束时再次面对撒旦(创3:15)。 在《马可福音》10:45中,主告诉门徒们在作门徒这件事上跟随祂的代价。祂说自己是一个仆人,献出自己的生命作为“赎价”。这个词的意思是为将某人从奴役中解放出来而付出代价。这指的是在十字架,主付出代价,把祂的子民从罪的奴役中解放出来。 正如十字架上的黑暗指向这个国家将要受到的审判一样,黑暗也指向基督对罪的审判。黑暗的力量给这个世界带来了诅咒。当那位付上代价将祂的子民从诅咒中解救出来时,黑暗将笼罩大地,这是多么恰当啊! 祂来解除黑暗和诅咒(加3:13)。 在祂的复活时,祂当然就战胜了死亡。但这里还有另一个重点。《马可福音》是关于门徒的。如果信徒要跟随基督做门徒,他们就需要从罪的权柄中被释放。主的复活表明信徒现在可以活出义来,因为罪的权柄已经被打破。信徒不必再服事它(彼前2:24;罗5:8-10)。罪恶的力量,黑暗的力量,已经被打破了。 对所有看着十字架的人来说,黑暗中有审判的信息。对不信的以色列人来说,这预示着审判将临到他们。对于相信的门徒来说,它描绘了对罪的掌权的审判。

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...
