Wash One Another’s Feet, Part 1 (John 13:14)

February 22, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - foot washing, one another commands
Living the normal Christian life requires living a normal church life because God designed discipleship with a strong corporate character. When I say “corporate,” I’m not talking about the business world but the fact that God created you to belong to a group. Scripture pictures that group life as a family (Gal 6:10; Rom 8:16)

Zane Hodges and the Promise of Everlasting Life

February 19, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Assurance of Salvation, John 4:10-14, Zane Hodges
Zane Hodges departed this life in November of 2008. In the dozen years since then, many people have suggested that he changed his view of the saving message. Many pointed to a 2006 message in which he argued that a person is not born again until he is sure that he is eternally secure by

Kenya, Free Grace, and COVID

February 18, 2021 by Kenneth Yates in Blog
This blog is an update on what my daughter Kathryn and I are planning on doing the last couple of weeks in February. Part of what we do for GES are pastors’ conferences in other countries. Covid has prevented us from doing this for the last several months. However, as of this moment, we are

Sharing the Whole Gospel

February 17, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - atonement, evangelism, Repentance
If a cluttered desk is a sign of intelligence, then I must rival Einstein. My desk is a mess. Yesterday I decided to try to clear off my desk in an hour or so. I never got past the first journal I picked up. I had not yet read the July-September 2020 issue of DTS’s

Be at Peace with One Another (Mark 9:50)

February 16, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - ecclesiology, ekklesia, Local Church, normal Christian church life, one another, one another commands, peace, peacemaking
God meant the Christian life to be lived in community. It doesn’t always work out that way. Christians can be imprisoned, confined to a hospital bed, or live alone in a hostile country without an opportunity to meet with other believers. If that is you, I’m not here to make you feel guilty about being

Works Salvation and the New Birth, Part 3

February 15, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Justification by faith alone, Romans 4:4-5
In Parts 1 and 2, we saw that works salvation will not result in the regeneration of anyone who believes that message. To be born again one must believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and Him alone for the free gift of everlasting life. Adding works to faith is like adding strychnine to water. In

The New Testament’s “One Another” Commands: An Introduction

February 12, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Christian Life, one another, one another commands
Becoming born again is an individual issue. In other words, you need to believe in Jesus for eternal life to have that life. Your mother can’t believe it for you. Neither can your father, or grandfather, or friend. You have to come to that point of faith for yourself. However, while you can only be

Works Salvation and the New Birth, Part 2

February 11, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Acts 15:1-35, the Jerusalem Council
In Part 1, we discussed the fact that some who call themselves Free Grace believe and teach that works salvation, while wrong, is nonetheless a saving message. I gave several lines of Biblical proof that works salvation is not a saving message. One of the lines of proof is Acts 15, the Jerusalem Council. Here

Works Salvation and the New Birth, Part 1

February 10, 2021 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Galatians 1:6-9, John 5:39-40, John 6:28-29, works salvation
Back in 2006, a Free Grace theologian presented a message at a conference in which he argued that believing in Jesus for the promise of irrevocable everlasting life cannot be a requirement for the new birth since no one believed that between AD 100 and AD 1500. That article was published in the Spring 2008

The Lord’s Supper As It Was

February 9, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - deipnon, Lord’s Supper, William Barclay
Here is the eminently readable William Barclay describing how the Lord’s Supper was originally celebrated: It is not in doubt that the Lord’s Supper began as a family meal or a meal of friends in a private house…It was like the Jewish Passover which is a family festival and at which the father and the
