I came to faith in Christ for my eternal salvation nearly fifty years ago in September of 1972. Back then all of us Jesus people (as we were called) were concerned for everyone within Christendom who did not have “a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.” The Jesus movement as a whole was quite diverse. Not […]
En un reciente episodio de Grace in Focus Radio (17 de abril), Shawn y Bob hablaron de los versículos de John 8:30-32. Este es un pasaje de las Escrituras que a menudo se malinterpreta. El versículo 30 dice que mientras el Señor hablaba “muchos creyeron en Él”. Esta es una frase estándar en el Evangelio […]
Knowing the difference between salvation and discipleship can make all the difference to your Christian walk. And confusing the two can be devastating to it. Lucas Kitchen wrote a neat little book on this difference (see here). You see, God wants you to be eternally saved. And He also wants you to be a disciple. […]
Deus odeia a morte. Mesmo assim, em Cristo, Deus transformou a morte para torná-la parte de Seu ministério. Esta citação de Andy Root me impressionou: “O movimento da morte para a vida é a própria forma do ministério de Deus” (Root, Christopraxis, p. 105). Como o movimento da morte para a vida se tornou a […]
C. M. makes this insightful comment with questions: In the first chapter of the Gospel of John, the apostle tells us that John the Baptist declares twice “I did not know Him,” referring to Jesus. In verse 26, he also states that John the Baptist told the priests and Levites that there stood one among […]
En Juan 8:30, leemos las siguientes palabras, “Hablando él estas cosas, muchos creyeron en él.” Muchas personas se refieren a este versículo al decir la siguiente frase que escuchamos frecuentemente: “Realmente no creyeron.” La razón por la que algunas personas dicen que estas personas realmente no creyeron—incluso si Juan dice que lo hicieron—se debe a […]
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking […]
En una reciente entrada de blog, sugerí que las recompensas perdidas se perderían para siempre. Uno de nuestros lectores estaba en un fuerte desacuerdo, y respondió diciendo, “Las recompensas son para un periodo, 1,000 años, no la eternidad. Alguien más respondió a ese comentario, preguntando “Dónde nos dice la Biblia que las recompensas son solo […]
P: Pelo que entendi sua premissa em Grace in Focus, você acredita que se uma pessoa fizer uma profissão de fé sincera, mas depois se tornar um apóstata, ela ainda será salva. Se isso for verdade, haverá descrentes no céu? ~ D.T. R: Então, para esclarecer, uma profissão de fé sincera não é suficiente para […]
How do you apply Scripture? Do you wait for a preacher to give you an application? If so, do you consider the possibility that the preacher (local church, radio, TV, books) might sometimes misapply the Word of God? Here are three application questions: Is it okay for women to be elders in the local church? […]

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...
