¿Puedes saber que eres salvo por lo que haces_

He mencionado antes que nuestra conferencia anual de 2006 resultó en una controversia. Había dos mensajes sobre la seguridad de la vida eterna que provocaron una respuesta dividida. Pensé que esos mensajes serían bien recibidos, pero sólo aproximadamente la mitad de las personas estuvieron de acuerdo mientras que la otra mitad pensaron que los mensajes […]

What is “the whole gospel” and how can it impact the way we share our faith_

If a cluttered desk is a sign of intelligence, then I must rival Einstein. My desk is a mess. Yesterday I decided to try to clear off my desk in an hour or so. I never got past the first journal I picked up. I had not yet read the July-September 2020 issue of DTS’s […]

Você deve crescer

Aqueles de nós que cresceram nos anos 80 e 90 vão se lembrar de um dos jingles mais famosos da história do varejo: Eu não quero crescer, Sou o garoto da Toys R Us; eles ganharam um milhão de brinquedos na Toys R us que eu posso brincar Nós idolatramos a infância, não é? Quantas […]

Be at Peace with One Another

God meant the Christian life to be lived in community. It doesn’t always work out that way. Christians can be imprisoned, confined to a hospital bed, or live alone in a hostile country without an opportunity to meet with other believers. If that is you, I’m not here to make you feel guilty about being […]

¿Es verdad que los lectores de Juan carecían de la seguridad en cuanto a su salvación_

Alguien recientemente desafió la idea de que la seguridad forma parte de la esencia de la fe salvadora, al citar 1 Juan 5:13. Nuestro ministerio ha contestado esa pregunta en otras entradas de blog, pero me gustaría poner la respuesta en mis propias palabras aquí. El versículo en cuestión dice: Estas cosas os he escrito […]

Does Romans 4_4-5 teach that until one believes in justification by faith alone, apart from works, he is not yet justified_

In Parts 1 and 2, we saw that works salvation will not result in the regeneration of anyone who believes that message. To be born again one must believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and Him alone for the free gift of everlasting life. Adding works to faith is like adding strychnine to water. In […]

Jesús es el evento

Dios odia la muerte. Aún así, en Cristo, Dios transformó la muerte para que sea una parte de Su ministerio. Me chocó esta cita de Andy Root: El movimiento a través de la muerte hacia la vida es la propia forma del ministerio de Dios” (Root, Christopraxis, p. 105). ¿Cómo se ha convertido el movimiento […]

The New Testament’s “One Another” Commands_

Becoming born again is an individual issue. In other words, you need to believe in Jesus for eternal life to have that life. Your mother can’t believe it for you. Neither can your father, or grandfather, or friend. You have to come to that point of faith for yourself. However, while you can only be […]

Captura e limpeza de peixes (1)

Estou sempre procurando ilustrações simples de verdades bíblicas que a maioria das pessoas possa entender facilmente. Por exemplo: Eu ouvi um evangelista contar a história de como as pessoas em sua igreja local ficaram chateadas quando ele começou a conduzir pessoas a Cristo, e a igreja começou a crescer. Alguns dos veteranos não gostaram porque […]

Does the Jerusalem Council of Acts 15 teach that works salvation is not a saving message_

In Part 1, we discussed the fact that some who call themselves Free Grace believe and teach that works salvation, while wrong, is nonetheless a saving message. I gave several lines of Biblical proof that works salvation is not a saving message. One of the lines of proof is Acts 15, the Jerusalem Council. Here […]
