Eu, portanto, o prisioneiro do Senhor, rogo-vos que andeis dignos da vocação com que fostes chamados, com toda a humildade e mansidão, com longanimidade, suportando uns aos outros no amor (Ef 4, 1-2; cf. Col 3:13). “Vocês não precisam gostar um do outro, mas precisam parar de bater um no outro!” Isso é o que […]
For most of us, there is a tendency to be impressed when we meet people of accomplishment. The world certainly has its ways of measuring the greatness of individuals. The same thing is true in the Christian world. When we speak of pastors, for example, we often measure greatness by the size of that pastor’s […]
Cuando la mayoría de los cristianos piensan en el Reino de Dios, se imaginan que será un lugar donde todos son iguales. Será como una especie de utopía comunista. Desde su punto de vista, las ideas del comunismo, donde todos están en igualdad de condiciones, se harán realidad porque Jesucristo gobernará sobre todas las cosas. […]
C. S. Lewis once said, “Hell begins with a grumbling mood, always complaining, always blaming others.” You don’t have to agree with Lewis’s eschatology to know that grumbling is ungodly. Sad to say, James had to warn his readers against it—providing us with another “one another” command: Therefore be patient, brothers and sisters, until the […]
Poder orar ao Deus vivo é um privilégio fantástico. Mas pode ser difícil desenvolver, manter e manter uma vida de oração saudável com o tempo. A oração requer disciplina. Também requer sabedoria. E se você deseja sabedoria para viver a vida cristã, leia o livro de Tiago. É como o Livro de Provérbios do Novo […]
One could argue that there is no need to write this blog. Shawn Lazar wrote a great book on the subject, called Chosen to Serve. But I decided to write it because I have done a number of blogs on how certain words are used in the Book of Romans. I have done nine words […]
Los tres amigos de Job tenían una visión muy legalista de Dios y del mundo. Ellos pensaban que todo funcionaba según una ley clara y sencilla de causa y efecto moral—de recompensa y castigo—en la que las buenas personas son bendecidas, y las malas personas sufren. Así que cuando vieron a Job sufrir, la única […]
Today while reading Matthew 26, I came across the words good work. See Matt 26:10. A woman anointed Jesus’ head with “costly fragrant oil.” Interestingly, Jesus own disciples “were indignant” and indicated that they considered this act a very bad deed. But after they railed against what she did, the Lord Jesus told them not […]
Job era bastante religioso, bastante piadoso, y bastante bueno. Incluso Dios dijo, “¿No has considerado a mi siervo, Job, que no hay otro como él en la tierra, varón perfecto y recto, temeroso de Dios y apartado del mal?” (Job 1:8). Pero ser perfecto y recto no quiere decir que sabes todo lo que hay […]
In a recent blog I mentioned in passing that the Lord Jesus only led around 500 people to faith in Himself. Brett then emailed in this follow-up question: “Can you tell me where you came up with the figure that 500 were saved during Christ’s ministry? Had you written that about 5,000 came to Christ […]
The actor portraying Jesus in The Chosen has long hair. Most illustrations of Jesus depict Him with long hair. I would guess that most Evangelicals today think that Jesus had long...

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...
