Immortality Is Not Eternal Life 

September 8, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - annihilationism, conditional immortality, eternal conscious torment, final punishment, immortality
Free Grace Theology impacts the issue of final punishment. The question is, what happens to unbelievers after the Great White Throne Judgment? One way that Free Grace makes a difference is relatively subtle. We emphasize that, according to Jesus’ promise, believers have eternal life as a present possession (John 3:16, 36; 5:24; 6:47). Believers do

Liberado para amar

September 7, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Su Gracia Gratuita
Muchas veces los maestros procuran evitar el legalismo cuando enseñan sobre la justificación, pero lo promocionan (¿involuntariamente?) cuando viene a la santificación. Es decir, ellos presentan la vida cristiana como una serie de mandamientos para guardar. Tus esfuerzos para vivir la vida cristiana se convierten en un intento para cumplir con la misma lista de

Is Salvation a Gift or a Bargain? An Illustration from Steven Hein

September 4, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Assurance, eternal life, gift, lutheran, Works
I like Steven Hein’s analogy for two ways of presenting salvation. He compares it to the difference between receiving a diamond as a gift vs. purchasing it yourself for a bargain: What is the difference between receiving the largest, most valuable diamond in the world as a free gift—and getting it for a penny? If

Unlocked to Love

September 1, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Law and Gospel, spiritual theology, spirituality, Tullian Tchividjian
Many teachers avoid legalism in justification, only to endorse it (unintentionally?) in sanctification. That is, they present the Christian life as a series of commands for you to fulfill. Living the Christian life becomes an attempt to fulfill the same “to do” list that was completely inadequate to save you in the first place. These

Is Christendom Sick or Dead?

September 1, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Grace in Focus Articles
By Shawn Lazar In response to a blog about the need for missionaries to Christendom, a reader wrote: Shawn, I must admit I was quite taken aback by your words. You are just a year younger than I am, and from your books, blog posts and radio podcasts I’ve listened to that you share with

Sanctification Through Falling Deeper in Love: A Lesson from Anthony Norris Groves

August 27, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Anthony Norris Groves, love, Sanctification
How can you be holy? How can you live a “deeper” life with Christ? I am reading a biography of Anthony Norris Groves, written by G. H. Lang. So far, it is excellent. Groves was one of the pioneers of the faith missions movement—he went to the mission field without salary or support and depended

The Timing of the Lord’s Supper

August 25, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - communion, eucharist, Lord’s Supper, Lord’s Table
You can discuss the timing of the Lord’s Supper in three different senses: frequency, intent, and Dispensation. First, you can discuss the timing of the Supper in terms of frequency. It would be nice if the Bible had direct teaching about how frequently you should celebrate it. But despite several passages devoted to discussing the

Preocupándose en el Mar Rojo Parte 6 (Éxodo 14:15-18)

August 21, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Su Gracia Gratuita
Entonces Jehová dijo a Moisés: “¿Por qué clamas a mí? Di a los hijos de Israel que marchen. Y tú alza tu vara, y extiende su mano sobre el mar y divídelo, y entren los hijos de Israel por en medio del mar, en seco. Y he aquí, yo endureceré el corazón de los egipcios

Would You Give Up Your Church Buildings to Show Love? 

August 21, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - love, Matthew 5:40, Philippians 4:5, Robert Chapman
We know that eternal life is a free gift—an extraordinary, extravagant gift—given simply on the condition of faith in Christ, totally apart from any works that we can do (Rom 6:23; Eph 2:8-9). But then what? What comes next? The short answer is: love. Freed from the burden of having to earn your salvation by
