Watchman Nee was one of the first Christian writers I read because my mother’s Open Brethren church recommended him, and the tiny Christian bookstore in my hometown carried his books (I’m glad to see that bookstore is still open). This past Thanksgiving, I read Nee’s The Salvation of the Soul and found even more reasons […]
Cuídate de no olvidarte de Jehová, que te sacó de la tierra de Egipto, de casa de servidumbre. (Deut 6:12) En Deuteronomio 6, Moisés se dirige a la segunda generación de judíos que salió de Egipto. Dios los había sacado de la esclavitud por Su gracia y las promesas hechas a sus antepasados, Abraham, Isaac […]
Tanungin mo ang sinuman at ang kaniyang sagot ay magbibigay saiyo ng ideya sa kanilang pananaw sa ebanghelyo: Ano ang iyong sasabihin sa isang aktibong homosexual na dapat niyang gawin upang maligtas? Marami ang nagmumungkahi na ang aktibong homosekwalidad ay isang kasalanan na walang kapatawaran. Marami ang naniniwala na ang isang aktibong homosekswal ay hindi […]
Jewish genealogies rarely mentioned women. They certainly did not mention women of questionable character. Yet Matthew reports four women with questionable reputations in the line of Messiah. Why? Tamar (Matt 1:3). Genesis 38 tells us the story of how she ended up pretending to be a harlot and got pregnant by her father-in-law, Judah. Sordid […]
Adoro ser acusado de dar às pessoas licença para pecar. Verdade, isso é um sério mal-entendido da minha posição. No entanto, é um mal-entendido que surge quando alguém percebe o que estou dizendo sobre a liberdade da vida eterna. Eles não cometem esse erro sobre outras religiões! Todas as outras religiões do mundo, e a […]
Недавно я наткнулся на цитату кальвиниста. Он сказал, что уверен «без всякого сомнения» в своем рождении свыше и в собственной вечной безопасности. Он продолжил, говоря, что уверен, что сохранит веру, заявив, что даже если он и попытается ослушаться Христа, то просто не сможет этого сделать, так как Бог гарантирует ему хождение со Христом. Так ли […]
Ralph Puckett was an acquaintance of mine. Nobody would call us best friends, but we did share some coffee over breakfast from time to time. He would also stop by my office on occasion to talk about army stuff. He was a retired army officer, and I was a chaplain. He was about 30 years […]
Por extraño que parezca, una de mis cosas favoritas en las Escrituras es ver cómo las personas discuten con Dios. Se quejan ante Él sobre el sufrimiento que están experimentando. Me encanta eso porque significa que podemos abrirnos a Dios acerca de las cosas malas que nos suceden y el sufrimiento que experimentamos. Según el […]
Ang buhay-Kristiyano ay higit pa sa pagtakas sa “impiyerno” o sa muling kapanganakan. Sadyang nakagugulat ang libreng regalo ng buhay na walang hanggan ngunit ito ay pasimula lamang. Si Jesus ay marami pang hinanda para saiyo. Gaya ng? Kasikatan? Ngayon, hindi ko tinutukoy ang kasikatan ng sanlibutan- gaya ng pakikipag-agawan ng mga artista, manlalaro at […]
Todos nós fomos informados que, como crentes, não devemos entristecer o Espírito Santo. Acho que é seguro dizer que o que normalmente pensamos que isso significa é que, se eu cometer um pecado sexual, ou algum outro tipo de pecado, o Espírito Santo que vive em mim se entristece. Eu também ouvi dizer que o […]

In Isa 58:1-5, the prophet is commanded to tell Israel to turn from her sins so the nation can experience God’s blessings (vv 8-11). Unfortunately, most in the nation thought that religious rituals would secure God’s pleasure, even if they continued rebelling against Him. They sought...
“Do your parents know the Lord?” If your friend asked that, you’d assume he was asking whether your parents were believers. It would be equivalent to “Are...
