Will eternity be boring

Today, most churchgoers have a pathetic idea of what eternity will be like. They think it will take place in a faraway heaven, above the clouds. Those in that place will sit on a cloud playing the harp or singing in a choir forever. Few people look forward to such an eternity. In Isaiah 65, […]

Уверенность во спасении это вопрос опыта, а не веры?

Друг прислал мне электронную копию одного журнала. Я был потрясен, прочитав статью об уверенности во спасении. В этой статье автор говорит: “Уверенность во спасении это более чем богословская истина, которую необходимо понять. Это то, что переживается на собственном опыте, а не доказывается богословием”.i Как можно испытать уверенность во спасении, если это нечто большее, чем богословское […]

Have you ever compared your worst suffering in life with Luke 1619-31

The Bible says very little about what we call hell. That has resulted in lots of misconceptions. In this blog, we will focus on a massive misconception: The eternal experience of unbelievers will be intolerable torment, worse than any torment in this life. Pastor, author, and theologian John Piper wrote: “I know of no one […]

ang katiyakan ba ng kaligtasan ay bagay ng karanasan at hindi ng pananampalataya

Isang kaibigan ang nagpadala sa aking ng isang elektronikong kopya ng isang magasin. Naagaw ang aking atensiyon ng isang artikulo tungkol sa katiyakan ng kaligtasan. Sa artikulo, sinabi ng may-akda, “Ang katiyakan ay higit pa sa katotohanang teolohikal na dapat maunawaan. Ito ay isang bagay na dapat maranasan- hindi lamang patunayan sa teolohiya.”i Paano ang […]

What did Isaiah mean when he said our works are like filthy rags

In Isaiah 64, the prophet wrote these familiar words: “All our righteousnesses are like filthy rags” Isa 64:6. It is common to hear these words in discussions regarding eternal salvation. For example, in a blog titled “Not by Works,” John MacArthur makes this comment: “Scripture is perfectly clear on this. No good work of any kind contributes anything meritorious […]

¿Es la seguridad de la vida eterna una cuestión de experiencia, no de creencia?

Un amigo me envió una copia electrónica de una revista. Me llamó la atención un artículo que abordaba la seguridad de la salvación. En el artículo, el autor decía: “La seguridad es más que una verdad teológica para ser comprendida. Es algo que se experimenta, no solo una cuestión teológicamente probada¹”. ¿Cómo se experimenta la […]

La certezza della vita eterna è una questione di esperienza, non di fede?

Un amico mi ha inviato una copia digitale di una rivista. Mi ha colpito un articolo che parlava della certezza della salvezza. Nell’articolo, l’autore affermava: “La certezza è più di una verità teologica da comprendere. È qualcosa che si prova, non solo che si dimostra sul piano teologico”.i Come si fa a provare la certezza, […]

Puterea Harului

Nu cred că am avut ocazia să-l cunosc personal, dar un profesor de la seminarul unde am studiat m-a impresionat profund. Se numea Jack Deere și preda Vechiul Testament. Poate e doar o imagine din mintea mea, dar întotdeauna am avut impresia că erudiții Vechiului Testament sunt cei mai stoici dintre toți învățătorii biblici – […]

Dlaczego oczekiwanie na Jego rychły powrót jest ważne dla uświęcenia?

17 marca 1942 roku generał Douglas MacArthur opuścił Filipiny, ponieważ wyspy zostały opanowane przez siły wroga. Odchodząc, przysiągł: „Wrócę”. Dwa i pół roku później, 20 października 1944 roku, generał MacArthur wygłosił słynne przemówienie „I Have Returned” (Wróciłem) na wyspie Leyte na Filipinach. Jest to jedna z najbardziej pamiętnych wypowiedzi z czasów 2. Wojny Światowej. Przez […]
