S. E. writes, While we may disagree on different things such as the example you gave about what to eat, what about when the pastors teach about salvation? I grew up Presbyterian. So, I’ve been taught you must acknowledge you are a sinful person, then confess your sins, then ask God to save you by […]
D. C. wonders: I believe many understand the context of Jas 2:21-24 to be a type of justification before men and not God.i My problem has always been in v 22 when it says that by Abraham’s actions, his faith was made complete (or perfected), and then v 23 says the Scripture was fulfilled talking […]
“Возлюбленные! будем любить друг друга, потому что любовь от Бога, и всякий любящий рожден от Бога и знает Бога. Кто не любит, тот не познал Бога, потому что Бог есть любовь.” (1 Ин 4:7-8) Ведущего богослова Римской католической церкви Ханса урса вон Бальтасара (англ. Hans urs von Balthаsar) однажды спросили, почему необходимо верить в Троицу. […]
We all use the phrase “either/or.” Either you are going to do your homework, or you are not. Either you own your home, or you do not. The list could go on forever. When I was younger, there were certain occasions when we would all use the phrase. But in today’s crazy world that is […]

(El título exacto es “¿Exige el Evangelio de Juan la creencia en la seguridad eterna para la salvación?” Está disponible aquí). Su respuesta fue no. Uno no necesita […]
“Если пребудете во Мне и слова Мои в вас пребудут…” (Ин 15:7) Как могут слова Иисуса пребывать в Вас? Один из способов добиться этого, это обращаться к истине, которой учил Иисус, учиться применять её к своей ситуации и затем жить соответственно. Например, Иисус учил нас молиться: «Отче наш, сущий на небесах! да святится имя Твое» […]
Robin asks this compelling question: A believer friend of mine shared with me that she doesn’t “put God in a box” and that she thinks He created us any way He felt like. I was shocked that she didn’t believe in the creation of Adam as a fully developed man. Why is it important for […]
¿Alguna vez has ido de camping y te has despertado al oír un animal arrastrándose fuera de tu tienda, rebuscando en tu campamento? Tal vez incluso encendiste tu linterna y pudiste ver la silueta amenazadora deslizándose alrededor de ti. ¿Te asustaste? Si alguna vez has experimentado eso, estarás muy familiarizado con las imágenes que rodean […]
James wrote me an actual letter and asked some excellent questions about the Parable of the Four Soils. Here is part of what he wrote: Are the four kinds of soil supposed to be static? Will a person who is very hardened to the gospel always be hardened? Would a person whose heart was like […]
“A culpa é universal”, escreveu Paul Tournier, um psiquiatra cristão (Tournier, Guilt and Grace, p. 152). E de acordo com ele, você pode fazer uma de duas coisas com essa culpa: você pode reprimi-la ou reconhecê-la. Reprimir sua culpa “leva à raiva, rebelião, medo e ansiedade, um amortecimento da consciência, uma incapacidade crescente de reconhecer […]
