Percebo que a graça de Deus está sendo enfatizada cada vez mais por um amplo espectro de cristãos – desde anglicanos até carismáticos da Palavra da Fé. Mas também noto que a mensagem da graça pode ser distorcida ao ignorar ou mesmo negar todas as referências à ira, ira, julgamento, castigo e disciplina de Deus. […]
Brett has a great question that I’ve not ever been asked: I am hoping someone there can help resolve a problem passage that is found in Matt 23:13. In this verse the surface level seems to teach that people who desire to go to heaven can be prevented by unbelievers. How can it be that unbelievers […]
El mismo concepto de obtener recompensas eternas en el futuro reino de Jesús es ajeno a muchos cristianos, pero ciertamente no es ajeno a la Biblia, donde se enseña repetidamente sobre la importancia de las recompensas. En Mateo 6:20, Jesús instó a sus discípulos, “…haceos tesoros en el cielo.” Y el libro de Hebreos dice […]
I grew up in a French city where it was customary to greet people with a double-cheeked kiss. At least, that was normal among my French relatives. Meanwhile, my British/English circles preferred a firm handshake or nod of the head—or, if they felt especially informal, a quick hug. I have been studying the many “one […]
Em Lucas 1:27, lemos que Deus enviou Gabriel a uma virgem chamada Maria. Nessa época, Mary provavelmente era uma adolescente. Mas apesar de sua pouca idade, como era de costume, ela estava noiva de um homem cujo nome era Joseph. O noivado significava que eles foram legalmente prometidos um ao outro em casamento, mas a […]
Being able to pray to the Living God is a fantastic privilege. But having a healthy prayer life can be hard to develop, maintain, and keep fresh over time. Prayer takes discipline. It also takes wisdom. And if you want wisdom for living the Christian life, read the Book of James. It is like the […]
Vida eterna es un regalo gratuito que se obtiene solo por la fe en Cristo. Nuestras buenas obras no tienen nada que ver con eso, pero son importantes porque resultarán en las recompensas en el reino de Dios. Sin embargo, muchos creyentes no viven sus vidas a la luz de estas recompensas. ¿Por qué no? […]
Recently I wrote a blog entitled, “Understanding Saving Faith Is Not Like Breaking the Enigma Code.” I argued that saving faith is simply being convinced that the Lord Jesus Christ guarantees everlasting life that cannot be lost to all who believe in Him for that life. You can see that blog here. J. H. read […]
Una de las cosas que realmente aprecio del movimiento de la Gracia Gratuita en general, y de la GES en particular, es cómo nos ha desafiado a todos a fijarnos en las Escrituras y dejar que hablen por sí mismas. A menudo esto nos hace reconsiderar algunas de nuestras interpretaciones tradicionales sobre ciertos versículos. He […]
I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love (Eph 4:1-2; cf. Col 3:13). “You don’t have to like each other, but you do have to stop hitting each other!” That’s […]
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...
