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

“Salvo” es una palabra flexible

November 11, 2025 by Ken Yates in Su Gracia Gratuita
Si somos fieles a las Escrituras, reconoceremos que las palabras salvo y salvación son flexibles. Pueden referirse a diferentes tipos de salvación. GES tiene muchos artículos que muestran cómo se usa la palabra de varias maneras en el Nuevo Testamento. A veces, esto representa un problema. Muchos evangélicos asumen casi automáticamente que cuando la Biblia

Ang “Ligtas” Ay Flexible Na Salita

November 11, 2025 by Ken Yates in Ang Tinig ng Biyaya
Kung tayo ay tapat sa Kasulatan, makikilala nating ang mga salitang ligtas at kaligtasan ay flexible. Maaari silang tumukoy sa iba’t ibang uri ng kaligtasan. Ang GES ay maraming artikulong pinakikita kung paano ang salita ay ginamit sa iba’t ibang paraan sa BT. Minsan, ito ay problema. Maraming Evangeliko ang awtomatikong nagpapalagay na kapag ginamit

La versatilità della parola “salvato”

November 11, 2025 by Ken Yates in Grazia Gratuita - Atti 16:31, Romani 6:10, Salvato, Salvezza
Se siamo fedeli alle Scritture, riconosceremo che i termini “salvato” e “salvezza” sono versatili, in quanto possono riferirsi a diversi tipi di salvezza. GES (Grace Evangelical Society) ha pubblicato diversi articoli che sottolineano come il termine sia usato in vari modi nel Nuovo Testamento. A volte questo presenta un problema. Molti evangelici danno quasi automaticamente

The Rise and Fall of Evil 

November 11, 2025 by Ken Yates in Blog - Christ’s return, evil, Heb 1:13, Kingdom, Psalm 110:1
William Shirer authored a book entitled The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. As a reporter, he attended the Nuremberg rally in 1934, soon after Hitler came to power. He wrote about the spectacular sights and sounds. The rally was an impressive display of Hitler’s control of the country and of Nazi military might. Hitler towered over the large group of soldiers in

Mai mult decât simpla prezență (2 Corinteni 5:10)

November 10, 2025 by Ken Yates in Har Gratuit: Păstrează harul în centrul atenției
Unul dintre versetele cele mai des citate de cei care pun accent pe har este 2 Corinteni 5:10, unde Pavel afirmă că toți credincioșii trebuie să fie înfățișați înaintea scaunului de judecată al lui Hristos. Acolo, fiecare credincios va fi răsplătit pentru faptele bune sau i se vor refuza acele răsplăți din cauza faptelor rele.

Skrucha Szymona Czarnoksiężnika (Dzieje 8:24)

November 10, 2025 by Ken Yates in Jedynie Wiara, czyli darmowa łaska w centrum uwagi - Dzieje 8:13, Dzieje 8:24, Samaria, Szymon
Szymon, czarownik z Samarii, jest fascynującą postacią z Dziejów Apostolskich. Nie sądzę, aby ktokolwiek w historii Kościoła był tak oczerniany, jak ten człowiek. Chociaż tekst mówi, że był wierzący, teologowie wielu nurtów są przekonani, że trafił do jeziora ognia. Nawet niektórzy wierzący teologowie należą do tej grupy. Łukasz mówi nam, że Szymon uwierzył w to,

Is Jesus the Ransom for Many or for All? Matthew 20:28 

November 10, 2025 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - lutron, Ransom, Redemption
…the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many (Matt 20:28; Mark 10:45). After two blogs on Jesus’ shed blood, I received an email question from Sam:   In Matthew 20:28 Jesus said that He “did not come to be served, but to serve,

什么是圣灵的果子?

November 10, 2025 by Bob Wilkin in 聚焦恩典 - 加5:22-24, 弗5:9
“圣灵的果子”(希腊文 karpos,在这两处都是单数形式)这一表达在圣经中仅出现两次——分别在《加拉太书》5章22节和《以弗所书》5章9节。 其他类似的表达包括: “义的平安的果子”——karpon,单数(来12章11节); “义果”——karpos(雅3章18节); “结满了仁义的果子”——karpōn,为 karpos 的复数(在多数抄本中为复数,在校订本中为单数,腓1章11节); “你们仁义的果子(或收成)”——genēmata,为 genēma 的复数(林后9章10节); “成圣的果子”——karpon(罗6章22节); “在一切善事上结果子”—— karpophoreō(西1章10节)。 如果没有人告诉我们“圣灵的果子”是什么意思,我们大概会把它看作一个相当简单、容易理解的表达。它指的是圣灵在我们里面所结的果子。我们只需要查考上下文以及圣经其他地方的教导,就能明白这果子是如何在我们生命中显明出来的,以及这果子到底是什么。单就这个表达本身来说,其实非常简单。 然而遗憾的是,许多牧师和神学家却把这个简单的词语,变成了一种关于基督徒生活的“奥秘”。于是,对于“圣灵的果子”究竟是什么,以及信徒如何得着这果子,便产生了许多混乱与误解。 在一篇发表在 LifeTrainingCounseling.org 网站上的文章《圣灵的果子是单数形式》(The Fruit of the Spirit Is Singular)中,大卫·拉尔斯顿(David Ralston)提出,那些“心里有圣灵的人”,必然会显出圣灵的果子。他进一步补充说:“如果圣灵确实在我们里面,那么我们就应该看到这个事实的证据——即‘果子’全部特征的存在……不是一两种特质,而是全部九种。”(原文这里) 加尔文主义者或许会这样理解这个概念,因为在加尔文主义的神学框架中,所有“真正的信徒”都会在信心和善行上持守到底,直到死亡。 伊妮德·欧娅(Enid Oa)在网站 TheGospelCitizen.com 上发表了一篇题为《圣灵的果子》(The Fruit of the Spirit)的文章。她认为,那些在自己身上看到这果子的人,是“越来越多与圣灵互动的人”(原文这里)。 她的解释带有一定的灵恩派(charismatic)色彩,也可能反映出某种亚米念派(Arminian)倾向。 关于这果子的三个关键点是: 它是在我们里面被产生的; 它是群体性的; 它是在我们住在基督里时结出的。 这些美德是群体性的。如果你的教会正在行在自由中——这正是《加拉太书》第5章的主题——那么这九种美德就会显而易见。请注意,这九种特质都是群体性的。我们没有看到诸如祷告、鼓励他人、承认基督、奉献、默想、读经等由个人单独完成的行为;相反,这些美德是群体共同经历的。 这正是圣灵在行在自由中的信徒群体里所结出的果子。 以下是霍奇斯(Hodges)对《雅各书》3章18节的解释: 那种按照第17节所描述的方式行事的人,属于“使人和睦的人”之列……他的行为(即他的“种子”)最终结出的果子是义,因为当信徒彼此和睦相处时,公义就在他们中间成长并昌盛。考虑到雅各对于会众内部和平的关切(参见4:1–3),很可能“在和平中”(in peace)这一短语实际上是修饰“义的果子”(the fruit of righteousness),而不是像《新国际版圣经》(NIV)那样修饰“撒种”(sown)。也就是说,这节经文应当理解为:“在和平中所结出的义的果子,是由……所撒下的。” 重点在于:这种公义是在和平的氛围中得以经历的,当那使人和睦的人完成了他撒种的工作之后,教会中就会收获这义的果实。 至于腓1章11节,多数文本(MT)译作“义的果子们”(复数),而批判文本(CT)则译作“义的果子”(单数)。我认为,复数的形式是正确的。 这些果子是“由义而生的果子”(Moule)。 《加拉太书》第5章整体上,尤其是5:19–24节,呈现出肉体与圣灵之间的对比。然而,圣灵所结的果子并不是我们仅仅因重生就自然产生的,也不是通过“与圣灵越来越多地互动”这样的模糊做法而产生的。 从圣经的角度来看,我们的生命之所以被改变,是因为我们得着了基督的心思意念(参见《罗马书》12:1–2;《哥林多前书》2:14-16;《哥林多后书》3:18),而不是因为我们“祷告某种祷告”、“顺服圣灵”或“与圣灵互动”等行为。 保罗在《加拉太书》第5章指出,企图靠律法称义(加5:4)正是导致“肉体的行为”的原因。律法主义会结出肉体的行为。问题并不是酒精、大麻或社交媒体导致肉体的行为,而是律法主义的心态导致了这些行为。 获得“圣灵的果子”的途径,是要行在基督所赐的自由之中(加5:1)。这是一种心态。以下是一些实际的例子,说明这在生活中如何体现: 确信自己永恒的得救保障。 警醒等候基督即将的再来。 在一个充满爱、并清楚教导神话语的教会中生活,使心意得以更新。 以敬虔的信徒为榜样。 如果你所在的教会彼此撕咬、相互吞噬(加5:15),那就赶紧离开——快跑!别犹豫!但如果你所在的教会以《加拉太书》5:22–24所列的九种美德为特征,那就尽情汲取其中的教导与团契吧。
