Ang buhay na walang hanggan ay magpakailan pa man. Minsang maligtas, ligtas kailan pa man. Ngunit nangangahulugan ba itong ang mga mananampalataya ay maaari nang magkasala nang walang konsekwensiya? Hindi. Tama ang mga tao sa pagtuturo na ang Bagong Tipan ay puno ng babala sa mga mananampalataya. Ngunit mali sila sa pag-iisip na ang mga […]
I still use the expression saving faith occasionally since it saves a lot of space. By saving faith, I mean faith in the saving object, the gift of God (everlasting life, John 4:10, 14; Eph 2:8) given by the Messiah Giver Jesus (John 4:25-26; 6:47). But what is faith? It probably is no surprise to […]
Vamos admitir – a vida cristã e o serviço cristão nem sempre são emocionantes. Ambos são geralmente meramente comuns. E ainda assim, a fidelidade na banalidade pode agradar a Deus. Pense em Ruth. O Livro de Rute se passa durante o período dos Juízes, quando grandes e importantes eventos estavam acontecendo na vida de Israel. […]
“What if?” questions are handy for testing the consistency of a plan or theory. Philosophers love hypothetical scenarios. For example, the trolley problem helps test the consistency of your moral intuitions (see here). And the brain-in-a-vat problem tests theories about what you can and cannot know (see here). If a hypothetical reveals a self-contradiction within […]
Recientemente leí un artículo sobre la santificación de alguien que se identifica como defensor del movimiento de la Gracia Gratuita. Él sugirió que tanto la justificación como la santificación son por la fe, sin obras. ¿Es eso cierto? Mientras que la justificación es definitivamente por fe, sin obras, ¿es la santificación también por fe, sin […]
Today I received an actual typed letter. It was from Martin. He asked about a famous verse in Exodus 32. That chapter deals with the golden calf incident. While Moses was up on Mount Sinai meeting with the Lord (preincarnate Jesus Christ) and receiving the law, Aaron, at the insistence of the people, made two […]
¿Por qué deberías creer que Jesús puede darte la vida eterna? ¿Quién tiene ese tipo de poder y autoridad? En su ensayo, “¿Qué debemos hacer con Jesucristo?” C.S. Lewis señaló algunas de las cosas curiosas que dijo Jesús y que hicieron a la gente preguntarse acerca de Su verdadera identidad. Por ejemplo, Lewis parafrasea lo […]
Isang mambabasa mula sa Latvia, M. A., ang nagtanong: Hello mga kaibigan! Naiintindihan ko ang inyong argumento na hindi maiwawala ng isang Krstiyano ang kaniyang kaligtasan sapagkat ang “buhay na walang hanggan” sa Juan 3:16 ay nangangahulugang buhay na hindi matatapos- samakatuwid isang buhay na hindi mawawala. Ngunit bakit hindi maaari na ang “buhay na […]
Jesus commanded, “lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven” (Matt 6:20), and He promised to return with “My reward…to give to every one according to his work” (Rev 22:12). You can find the topic of eternal rewards written across Scripture, with promises of riches, wealth, mansions, and authority in the life to come. Shouldn’t you […]
A vida normal da igreja está ativa. Os cristãos não deveriam habitar passivamente os bancos da igreja. Vivemos para Cristo 24 horas por dia, 7 dias por semana, servindo-O em tudo o que fazemos. E isso significa que as igrejas devem amar ativamente, servir e fazer o bem, muitas vezes diante de enormes desafios. Mas […]

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...
