En ese momento Jesús declaró: “te alabo, Padre, Señor del cielo y de la tierra, porque escondiste estas cosas de los sabios y de los entendidos, y las revelaste a los niños.” (Mateo 11:25) La complejidad de los fariseos En el evangelio de Mateo, el capítulo 11 es un momento triste. Juan el Bautista ha […]
The New Testament has about 58 “one another” commands that describe what a normal Christian church life can be. It’s the kind of community I want to—need to!—experience. But what does that church life look like? The second example of these commands is to wash one another’s feet (John 13:14). In the previous post, we […]
Se você compartilhou sua fé com as pessoas, sabe que algumas pessoas pensam que Jesus era apenas um homem bom. Eles podem até pensar que Ele era o melhor dos homens. Mas eles não acreditam que Ele é o Messias, o Salvador do mundo há muito prometido, Deus na carne e o Rei de Israel. […]
Most people have heard of John 3:16. Many can even quote it from heart. But did you know that there are at least three other famous 3:16s in the New Testament? Colossians 3:16. “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and […]
Un amigo me envió algunos comentarios y me preguntó mi opinión acerca de ellos. Me interesa tu opinión. Estoy tratando de elaborar una respuesta razonable al concepto de “seguir a Jesús para ser salvo.” He notado una cosa: Las únicas ocasiones cuando se les dice a las personas que sigan a Cristo son cuando Él […]

When I say “corporate,” I’m not talking about the business world but the fact that God created you to belong to a group. Scripture pictures that group life as a family (Gal 6:10; Rom 8:16) […]
En nuestra cultura postmoderna se ha vuelto cada vez más popular hablar de la fe en Cristo como un encuentro personal con Él. Muchos pastores y teólogos dicen que la fe es personal, no proposicional. ¿Cómo uno se siente durante un encuentro personal con Jesús? Es allí dónde ponen su confianza muchos de los llamados […]
Zane Hodges departed this life in November of 2008. In the dozen years since then, many people have suggested that he changed his view of the saving message. Many pointed to a 2006 message in which he argued that a person is not born again until he is sure that he is eternally secure by […]
Você deve crescer. Isso é o que Paulo disse aos efésios. Eles não devem permanecer como filhos espirituais. A questão é: como esse crescimento acontece? Como explorei no último blog, Paul disse que crescer exige equipar. Por exemplo, é para isso que os pastores-professores existem – não para fazer todo o ministério eles mesmos, mas […]
This blog is an update on what my daughter Kathryn and I are planning on doing the last couple of weeks in February. Part of what we do for GES are pastors’ conferences in other countries. Covid has prevented us from doing this for the last several months. However, as of this moment, we are […]
