The Word “Gospel” in the Book of Romans 

January 26, 2021 by Kenneth Yates in Blog
The word “gospel” is an interesting but misunderstood word. In fact, in Bob Wilkin’s book, The Ten Most Misunderstood Words in the Bible (you can get this great book at the GES website), Bob picks it as one of the ten. The reason it is misunderstood is because when most Christians hear the word “gospel,”

The Meaning of the “Supper”

January 25, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - communion, deipnon, Fellowship, Lord’s Supper, table
For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of

The New Testament Understanding of Following Jesus

January 22, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Discipleship, evangelism, Following Jesus, imitating Jesus
A friend sent me some comments and asks my thoughts: Interested in your opinion. I am trying to craft a reasonable response to the “follow Jesus to be saved” concept.  I noticed something: the only times people are told to follow Christ is when He is present and able to be literally followed. The terminology abruptly stops

Did John’s Readers Lack Assurance? Re-Examining 1 John 5:13

January 21, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - 1 John, Assurance, belief, essence of saving faith
Someone recently challenged the idea that assurance is of the essence of saving faith by quoting 1 John 5:13. That question has been answered before (see here and here). But I’d like to put an answer in my own words. The verse in question reads: These things I have written to you who believe in

The Teaching That You Cannot Be Sure That Christ Died for You Is One of the Worst False Teachings of All Time

January 20, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - 1 John 2:2, Assurance, John 1:29, limited atonement, unlimited atonement
A reader of our blog, K, cited one of my blogs in which I said that you know you are believing in Jesus to save you if you have assurance of everlasting life. K responded with this cry for help: I do not have assurance of everlasting life. I want to be saved. I’m terrified I’m

Investing When Times Are Tough (Jeremiah 32:1-9)

January 19, 2021 by Kenneth Yates in Blog
There is a very interesting account in Jeremiah 32. The prophet had told the people that God was going to judge the nation and take them as slaves to Babylon. In Jeremiah 32, that time is at hand. The army of Babylon had surrounded Jerusalem. Jeremiah knew that the city would be destroyed and the

A Prayer for 2021 (Ephesians 1:18-19a)

January 18, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Ephesians, power, Prayer
At the beginning of last year, you probably heard a sermon series that punned on 2020. There were titles such as “20/20 Vision,” or “God’s Vision for 2020,” “2020: Clear Vision for your Life,” or “Give us 20/20 in 2020.” And whatever vision or plan was presented in that sermon series was probably completely wrong!

Do Not Trust in Politicians

January 15, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - politicians, praise, Trust
Did you ever notice that the New Testament barely mentions the names or actions of the ruling authorities of the day? For example, during the time of Jesus, Caesar Augustus was leading the Roman Republic into its epoch-making transformation into the Roman Empire. Humanly speaking, that was one of the most important events in history,

I Did Not Realize How Prevalent Assurance by Works Is

January 14, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Assurance, assurance and works, John 11:25-27
I have mentioned before that our 2006 annual conference ended up being controversial. There were two messages on assurance of everlasting life that were met with a divided response. I thought those messages would be well received but about half of the people agreed, while the other half thought that the messages by Zane Hodges

Can You Trust in Simple Salvation?

January 13, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Max Lucado, simple
“There’s no such thing as a free lunch.” “If it’s too good to be true, it probably is.” “Nothing is as simple as it seems.” Those are all common American proverbs that reflect our collective wisdom about dubious offers. However, those are also the ideas that lead many people to doubt the promise of eternal
