Não confunda vir a Jesus com vir após Jesus

Saber a diferença entre salvação e discipulado pode fazer toda a diferença em sua caminhada cristã. E confundir os dois pode ser devastador. Lucas Kitchen escreveu um livrinho bacana sobre essa diferença (veja aqui). Veja, Deus quer que você seja salvo eternamente. E Ele também quer que você seja um discípulo. Mas as condições para […]

Do you find it odd for a Calvinist to say that believing in the doctrine of justification by faith in Christ is not enough to be justified, but it must be combined with good works_

Dr. John Piper is a famed theologian and retired pastor. But he has made some rather shocking statements for a 5-point Calvinist. The title of this article is one of them. He told those words to a young woman who had grown up on the mission field and who was living with a young man […]

¿De qué manera es Jesús la propiciación del mundo_

Pregunta: ¿Cómo explicas 1 Juan 1:5-10 y 1 Cor 6:8-12? Yo creo que Juan está hablando de la salvación aquí. No parece encajar en tu visión de “los dos beneficios” (si así se llama esa visión). ¿Cómo puede ser que Él es la propiciación de los pecados del mundo entero, pero la sangre de Cristo […]

This approach is essentially a soft form of Lordship Salvation

Shawn found out that one of my former seminary professors was speaking at a church near DFW airport. I went to the church’s website and found out that they have an interesting way to evangelize. They have a heading called Friendship with God. They invite you to click to find out how to become a […]

Nunca provoque o

Mas o fruto do Espírito é amor, alegria, paz, longanimidade, bondade, bondade, fidelidade, mansidão, domínio próprio. Contra tal não há lei. E aqueles que são de Cristo crucificaram a carne com suas paixões e desejos. Se vivemos no Espírito, andemos também no Espírito. Não nos tornemos presunçosos, provocando uns aos outros, invejando uns aos outros […]

How Much Glory Do You Expect in Christ’s Kingdom_

The noun glory occurs sixteen times in the Book of Romans. The verb glorify is used an additional five times in Romans. Many of these twenty-one uses refer to the glory of God (1:23; 3:7, 23; 4:20; 6:4, etc.) and to glorifying God (1:21; 15:6, 9). I would like to narrow down the topic a […]

¿Te Pagan por Ayudar a Otros_

Supongamos que Dios pagara a cada cristiano por el trabajo que hiciera. Sería pagado por el uso de su tiempo, su talento, por ayudar a los pobres y necesitados, su amor a su esposa e hijos, su hospitalidad, por dejar pasar a otros conductores, someterse a otros, ser amable, etc. ¿Y si Dios pagara inmediatamente […]

Why Many Puritans Died Without Assurance

The Puritans remain immensely popular. But reading them can be dangerous for your assurance. R. T. Kendall explains why. Kendall went to Oxford to study the Puritans and was surprised by how they lacked assurance of their salvation. He explains it in the introduction to his book Grace: I went to Oxford in 1973 to […]

¿Habrá vergüenza en el Tribunal de Cristo_

Recibí el siguiente correo electrónico: Entiendo que puedan haber consecuencias mortales para el pecado impenitente en esta vida, pero no puedo comprender la idea de que habrá consecuencias negativas en el Tribunal de Cristo (el Bema). ¿Cuáles consecuencias mortales podría haber allí? Leyendo 1 Cor. 3:10-15, parece que cualquier “madera, heno o hojarasco” simplemente se […]

Do you believe that His work is finished_ If so, are you sure you have everlasting life by faith in Him_

There are at least five other major scenes at the cross before this one. I start here because Jesus had said that He would rise on the third day. Day one started when He died on the cross, which is why we start there. In the Jewish way of thinking, a part of a day […]
