What is the Holy Spirit? Is the Spirit an impersonal force like electricity or gravity, or is He a person? Traditionally, the early Christians concluded the Holy Spirit was a person. But is there any Biblical evidence to support that conclusion? I think there is. Of course, it depends on how you define the word […]
Basándose en versículos como 1 Tes 5:23, creo que la persona humana es “tripartita,”—es decir, somos espíritu, alma, y cuerpo. Hebreos 4:12 es otro versículo que apoya el punto de vista “tripartito.” También revela una clave importante sobre el papel del espíritu en la persona humana: Porque la palabra de Dios es viva y eficaz, […]
A reader named CM sent in this interesting email. There is an implicit question at the end regarding faith and works. Repenting is turning away from sin by turning to Christ. Jesus said, “either you are with Me, or you or against Me”. Faith is a decision to respond to the gospel; acknowledging that our […]
A palavra “vida” (zoē) ocorre 14 vezes no Livro de Romanos (2: 7; 5:10, 17, 18, 21; 6: 4, 22, 23; 7:10; 8: 2, 6, 10 , 38; 11:15). A maneira como Paulo o usa no livro é um grande estudo. Às vezes, temos que ter cuidado para entender exatamente o que ele quer dizer […]
On May 17 I tested positive for Covid-19. I had come down with chills and a headache a few days before that. The five days or so were not too bad. But then I began to experience strong fatigue, and I lost my interest in eating. Sharon tested positive last week. She has been nearly […]
Esta es otra buena pregunta que he recibido a la luz de mi última entrada del blog: En un artículo en vuestra página web sobre Primera de Juan 2:3-11, encontré la siguiente afirmación: “Cuando Juan habla de conocer a Cristo, está usando un término que puede referirse a la posición o a la experiencia de […]
Normal church life is active. Christians should not be passively inhabiting the pews. We live for Christ 24/7, serving Him in all that we do. And that means the churches ought to be actively loving and serving and doing good, often in the face of enormous challenges. But with any activity, people often need encouragement […]
Publicado originalmente en la edición de otoño de 1988 de Grace in Focus. “Y en esto conocemos que nosotros le conocemos, si guardamos sus mandamientos” (1 Juan 2:3). Recientemente estuve en un programa de radio y alguien que llamó me pidió que explicara cómo la Primera de Juan 2:3 podría encajar en mi visión de […]
Question I’ve gotten a little confused regarding faith not being a choice. Say, for example, someone believes Jesus is the Christ, believes that He gives eternal life to everyone who believes in Him for it, but refuses to believe in Him for it. Wouldn’t that be a choice? Because that person understands and believes that […]
Você não pode ajudar a todos. Você pode querer. Você pode pensar que precisa. E sua incapacidade consistente de atender a todas as necessidades genuínas ao seu redor pode desapontá-lo. Afinal, as pessoas ao seu redor estão sofrendo, com problemas, desafios e questões para resolver. Mas todos eles precisam ser tratados por você? Você adoraria […]
We have all heard the expression “slicing the bologna thin.” It means that a person is examining something too closely, even to the point of obsession. It can be used positively: “He really...
