Does It Really Depend on Me?

August 23, 2023 by GES Webmaster in Grace in Focus Articles
By Mike Lii Back when I was in high school, my church produced a video designed to encourage evangelism. The concluding scene of that video is burned into my memory. A young man was shown in tears and in relative darkness in order to represent his being in hell. He was looking at his friend—a

Prove or Improve: Using James 2 in Evangelism

August 23, 2023 by Kathryn Wright in Grace in Focus Articles
By Kathryn Wright Of all the passages in the NT, James 2:14-26 is the one we most frequently encounter in an adversarial way when we proclaim the message of grace. Sadly, many have fallen prey to works-based salvation due to popular misapplications of these verses. Because of these misunderstandings, if you teach that eternal life

Quattro diverse interpretazione del messaggio della salvezza nell’ambito della Grazia Gratuita

August 23, 2023 by Bob Wilkin in Grazia Gratuita - Certezza della Salvezza, Evangelizzazione
Durante la conferenza annuale GES del 22-25 Maggio, ho ascoltato un ottimo messaggio di Bob Bryant. Ad un certo punto, ha fatto riferimento ad un articolo della rivista Grace in Focus del Luglio 2009 che io stesso avevo scritto, dal titolo “Quattro visioni della Grazia Gratuita correlate a due temi”. Si veda qui. Non l’avevo

Remembering the Unforgiving Servant (Matthew 18:21-35)

August 23, 2023 by Ken Yates in Blog - Forgiveness, Grace, Mercy
One lesson from the Parable of the Unforgiving Servant in Matt 18:21-35 is that as believers, we have received grace from God. When we come down hard on others who sin, it is often true that we have been guilty of the same sin. We need to look at ourselves before being quick to judge

是信心拯救我们,还是耶稣拯救我们?

August 23, 2023 by Bob Wilkin in 聚焦恩典 - 得救的信心
6月26日,在我们的YouTube频道上,我们发布了一段我的视频,叫做“建立在神迹上的信心可以得救吗?”你可以在这里看到这个7分钟的视频。 视频下方的一条评论引起了我的注意。S.P.写道:“信仰并不能拯救一个人。没有所谓的“得救的信心”。耶稣拯救(了我们)。是所信的拯救一个人。我相信耶稣有永生。在最后一个句子中,我是主语,相信是动词,耶稣是动词的宾语。如果动词的宾语不是耶稣,人就不会得救。不要再说‘得救的信心’了。” 首先,我很高兴S.P.没有认为我在讨论某种特殊的信心。我用得救的信心这个词来概括S.P.所说的“是所信的拯救一个人”。换句话说,如果一个人相信得救的信息,那么他就得救了。没有什么特别的信心。所有的信心都是说服。 第二,我有点惊讶S.P.说信心不能拯救一个人。他接着写道,“是所信的拯救一个人。”他说凡相信耶稣得永生的人都得救了。我们必须相信耶稣基督是赐予者,是上帝的礼物(恩赐),是永恒的生命。当我们这样做的时候,我们就有了礼物(恩赐)。 当然,耶稣让人得救是真的。但祂也只拯救那些相信祂的人,让他们得永生,这也是真的。 耶稣拯救所有相信祂的人得永生,这样说准确吗?准确。 耶稣拯救人。对耶稣的信心可以拯救人。这里没有冲突。 也许S.P.的意思一般来说,信心,不会拯救任何人。它必须是对耶稣基督永生的信心。我同意。相信耶稣活过、死过、埋葬过、复活过,并不能带来永生。相信上帝派遣耶稣并不能带来新生。一个人必须相信赐予礼物的赐予者(《约翰福音》3:16;4:10-14;《以弗所书》2:8-9;《启示录》22:17)。 在评论区对S.P.的一个回复提到了一个特定的牧师。我查了一下牧师,发现他被批评了,因为他说我们得救是靠恩典,靠信心,不靠行为,我们不是靠祷告或向上帝呼求而得救的。我看了两次批评他的牧师的布道。他们坚信,为了得救,一个人必须呼求主的名,像罪人一样祷告,他们说这包括悔改和委身。 虽然我不太明白为什么S.P.坚决地命令,“不要说‘得救的信心’,”我想这可能是因为这个表达没有提到主耶稣基督和永生——赐予者和礼物。如果是这样,可以理解,当我写得救的信心时,这本来就是我的意思。这里有一个更长的说法:“谁相信主耶稣基督,是赐予者,是上帝的恩赐,是永远不能失去的生命,谁就有了这个恩赐。” 耶稣拯救人。√。 耶稣拯救所有相信祂的人得永生。√ 所有相信耶稣得永生的人都得救了。√ 相信正确的目标—主耶稣基督—以及祂所应许的永生—可以拯救我们。√ ___ 鲍勃·威尔金(Bob Wilkin)(达拉斯神学院神学硕士,博士)恩典福音派协会(Grace Evangelical Society)创始人及执行主任,聚焦恩典电台(Grace in Focus Radio)联合主持人。他同妻子莎伦(Sharon)住在德州高地村(Highland Village, TX)。鲍勃最新的书有《在一百节经文中的“单凭信心”(暂译)》(Faith Alone in One Hundred Verses)和《回转来活:悔改的力量(暂译)》(Turn and Live: The Power of Repentance)。

¿Salva la fe o salva Jesús?

August 22, 2023 by Bob Wilkin in Su Gracia Gratuita - Fe Salvadora
El 26 de junio, en nuestro canal de YouTube, publicamos un vídeo mío titulado “¿Puede salvar la fe milagrosa?”. Puedes ver el vídeo de 7 minutos aquí. Uno de los comentarios al final del vídeo me llamó la atención. S.P. escribió: “La fe no salva a una persona. No existe la ‘fe salvadora’. Jesús salva.

Ang Pananampalataya Ba O Si Jesus Ang Nagliligtas?

August 22, 2023 by Bob Wilkin in Ang Tinig ng Biyaya
Noong Hunyo 26, sa aming channel sa Youtube, may pinoste kaming video ko na may titulong “Can Miracle Faith Save?” (Makaliligtas Ba ang Pananampataya sa Milagro?). Makikita ninyo and 7-minutong video rito. Isa sa mga komento sa ibaba ng video ang umagaw sa aking atensiyon. Sinulat ni S. P. “Ang pananampalataya ay hindi nagliligtas ng

Major Ian Thomas: Correction and Follow-Up 

August 22, 2023 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Major Ian Thomas on 1 John 1:9 and saving faith
On August 3, I wrote a blog about 1 John 1:9 and Major Ian Thomas (MIT). See here. In that blog, I said that MIT said that 1 John 1:9 is a salvation verse, that believers are always in fellowship with God, and that there is a difference between faith in Christ and genuine faith

Anche se

August 21, 2023 by Kathryn Wright in Grazia Gratuita - 2 Tim 2:13, Evangelismo, Giovanni 11:25-26, Sicurezza, Vita Eterna
Introduzione Un amico di recente mi ha fatto una domanda riguardo all’evangelizzazione. Come possiamo stabilire che una persona ha creduto al messaggio della salvezza quando presentiamo il messaggio della vita eterna? In molti casi, quando le chiese o i missionari presentano il Vangelo, c’è il desiderio di avere una conferma che le persone si sono
