„Mântuit” este un cuvânt flexibil

November 17, 2025 by Ken Yates in Har Gratuit: Păstrează harul în centrul atenției
Dacă vrem să fim credincioși Scripturii, trebuie să recunoaștem că termenii mântuit și mântuire nu au întotdeauna același sens. Ei pot face referire la diferite forme de eliberare — uneori la mântuirea veșnică, alteori la o salvare fizică, la o izbăvire din necaz sau la restaurarea unui credincios căzut. Societatea Evanghelică a Harului (GES) a

Bez korzeni, bez owoców, bez Boga

November 17, 2025 by Kathryn Wright in Jedynie Wiara, czyli darmowa łaska w centrum uwagi - Izajasza 5, John MacArthur, Kalwinizm, korzeń, owoc, winnica
Wiele haseł, które są dziś używane wśród wierzących w kościele, powoduje zamieszanie. Jednym z takich wyrażeń jest „bez korzeni nie ma owoców”. Idea ta polega na tym, że jeśli ktoś nie wydaje duchowych owoców – co oznacza, że nie żyje sprawiedliwie i nie podąża za Panem Jezusem Chrystusem w widocznym dla wszystkich posłuszeństwie – to

Words to Live By 

November 17, 2025 by Ken Yates in Blog - 1 Cor 12:7, Gal 6:10, Luke 10:30-37, Rev 22:20, rewards, Rom 5:8, Samaritan
In the Gospel of Luke, the Lord presents the Parable of the Good Samaritani (Luke 10:30–37). In that story, a man lies dying on the side of the road. He represents the unbelieving lawyer to whom Jesus is speaking (v 25). The man needs to be saved. He needs eternal life. He is helpless on

“得救”这个词是很灵活的

November 17, 2025 by Ken Yates in 聚焦恩典 - 徒16:31, 得救, 救赎, 罗6:10
如果我们忠于圣经,就会认识到“得救(saved)”和“救赎/救恩(salvation)”这两个词的含义是很灵活的。它们可以指不同类型的得救。GES(恩典福音协会)发表了许多文章,指出这两个词在新约中被以多种不同的方式使用。 有时,这会造成问题。许多福音派信徒几乎会自动假设,圣经中只要出现 “得救(saved)” 或 “救赎(salvation)”,就一定指的是从永恒的地狱中得救。如果你指出这些词在新约中常常意味着别的内容,他们就会认为你是异端。 本不应该这样。即使在英语中,我们也会在不同的语境下使用这些词。我最喜欢的电影之一《肖申克的救赎》生动地说明了这一点。片中有一个角色是贪腐、残忍的监狱长霍顿(Horton)。他为了保全自己的财务利益甚至谋杀了一名威胁到他的人。而霍顿同时还是当地教会里一个自以为义的执事。 安迪是名囚犯,霍顿利用他为自己牟取非法利益。他们第一次见面时,霍顿送给安迪一本圣经,并鼓励他阅读,因为“救赎就在其中(salvation lies within it)”。霍顿并不知道,安迪得到了一个类似小型鹤嘴锄的工具。在长达二十年的时间里,安迪用它挖出了一条通向监狱外的隧道。最终,安迪获得自由。 在那二十年里,安迪把小鹤嘴锄藏在他的圣经里。逃狱之后,霍顿打开安迪的圣经,看到工具在书页中挖出的轮廓。安迪留给霍顿一张纸条:“你说得对,典狱长,救赎就在其中(salvation lies within)。” 霍顿和安迪都使用了 salvation(救赎) 这个词,但他们指的却完全不同。霍顿的意思是:如果安迪阅读圣经,他就能从地狱中得救。而安迪的意思是:那把在圣经中藏了二十年的小鹤嘴锄会带来他从监狱中的“救赎”。安迪的圣经里,同时存在两种不同的“救赎”! 新约也以类似的方式使用 “得救(saved)” 和 “救赎(salvation)” 这两个词。在《使徒行传》16:30 中,一位狱卒问保罗:“我当怎样行才可以得救?”当保罗告诉他要信主耶稣基督时,他的意思是:信基督会使这个人从火湖中得救——也就是脱离永恒的审判。 但在《罗马书》5:10 中,保罗以另一种方式使用这个词:信徒因基督的死已经被称为义;现在,信徒可以因基督的生命而得救。保罗接着解释:这种“得救”是从罪的权势中得释放的救赎。信徒不再必须被罪的力量所囚禁,因为复活之基督的能力住在他里面(罗 6:22)。既然基督是活着的,信徒就能够获得释放。 因此,保罗以不同方式使用 “得救(saved)” 这个词。对于像腓立比狱卒这样的非信徒,他使用这个词的方式就像电影中霍顿的理解——指的是从火湖中得救。但当保罗对已经从火湖中得救的人讲话时,他的用法更接近安迪的理解——指的是从罪的权势中得释放。信徒已经经历了从火湖中得救,将永远在基督的国度中与主同住。而在今生,借着住在我们里面的复活之主的大能,我们还能经历另一种救赎:从罪的捆绑中得释放。后一种救赎在新约中非常突出。 在《肖申克的救赎》中,当安迪从监狱逃脱并获得自由时,他伸开双臂向着天空。雨落在他身上,而他的脸上洋溢着喜悦。二十年来,他从未这样感受过雨。他正在享受他的“救赎”。 作为信徒,我们已经拥有了从地狱中得救的救赎。愿我们也追求那救赎之喜乐。就是借着靠圣灵而行的生活所带来救赎的喜乐。

Seven Reasons Why We Cannot Be Saved By Opening the Door to Our Life— Revelation 3:20 Reconsidered

November 14, 2025 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Fellowship, receiving Christ, Revelation 3:20, Salvation
I was surprised. I went on YouTube looking for videos that presented Rev 3:20 as an evangelistic verse. Many, if not most, of the videos said it wasn’t an evangelistic verse.   Then I went online looking for articles suggesting that Rev 3:20 is an invitation to everlasting life. Again, most of the articles indicated that

Care este roada Duhului?

November 13, 2025 by Bob Wilkin in Har Gratuit: Păstrează harul în centrul atenției
Expresia roada [karpos, la singular în ambele cazuri] Duhului apare doar de două ori în Biblie: în Galateni 5:22 și în Efeseni 5:9. Alte expresii similare sunt: roada pașnică [karpon, singular] a neprihănirii (Evrei 12:11), roada [karpos] neprihănirii (Iacov 3:18), roadele [karpōn, plural de karpos, în TM; singular în TC] neprihănirii (Filipeni 1:11), roadele sau secerișul [genēmata, plural de genēma] neprihănirii

Theological Big Brothers 

November 13, 2025 by Ken Yates in Blog - 1 John 5:13, Assurance, John 11:25-26, John 4:1-14, sound doctrine
There is a quote attributed to George Orwell. Many say there is no evidence that he said these exact words, but the ideas expressed in them are found in his famous book, 1984. The quote says, “The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it hates those who speak it.”  1984 describes the

“Спасен” это гибкое слово

November 12, 2025 by Ken Yates in Бесплатный дар благодати - Деян 16:31, Рим 6:10, Спасен, Спасение
Если мы будем преданны Писанию, то признаем, что слова “спасен” и “спасение” используются гибко. Они могут говорить о разных типах спасения. На нашем сайте есть много статей, указывающих на разные способы использования этого слова в Новом Завете. Иногда это представляет проблему. Многие евангельские христиане почти автоматически подразумевают, что когда в Библии встречается слово “спасен” или

Što je plod Duha?

November 12, 2025 by Bob Wilkin in Milost u Fokusu - Efežanima 5:9; Galaćanima 5:22–24
Izraz plod [karpos, jednina na oba mjesta] Duha pojavljuje se samo dvaput u Bibliji – u Gal 5,22 i Ef 5,9. Drugi slični izrazi su: mironosni plod [karpon, jednina] pravednosti (Hebrejima 12,11), plod [karpos] pravednosti (Jak 3,18), plodovi [karpōn, množina od karpos, u MT, jednina u CT] pravednosti (Filipljanima 1:11), plodovi ili žetva [genēmata, množina

Was Paul Talking about Sanctification When He Wrote about Salvation in 1 Corinthians? 

November 12, 2025 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - 1 Corinthians 15:2, 1 Corinthians 3:15, 1 Corinthians 5:5
Paul uses the word save (sōzō) nine times in 1 Corinthians (1:18, 21; 3:15; 5:5; 7:16 twice; 9:22; 10:33; 15:2). He does not use the noun salvation (sōtēria) at all in the epistle. Commentators are not in agreement as to what save means in 3:15; 5:5; and 15:2. I believe, along with some commentators, that
