La palabra original usada como “condenación” en el Libro de Romanos es katakrima. Solo aparece tres veces en el libro. De hecho, estas son las únicas veces que la palabra aparece en todo el Nuevo Testamento. Los tres ejemplos se encuentran en Ro 5:16, 18, y Ro 8:1. Al hablar sobre el pecado de Adán […]
I get frustrated at my lack of spiritual growth. But then I think of Abraham. In James 2, we read: Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect? […]
O que significa meditar? Ao longo dos séculos, formas antibíblicas de meditação foram emprestadas de outras tradições religiosas, como o hinduísmo e o budismo. Pior, muitas dessas práticas meditativas surgiram de, e assumiram, um evangelho de salvação pelas obras, e assim, a meditação tornou-se mais uma obra a fazer – mais um degrau na escada […]
P. N. raises a very challenging issue: So…I think it’s wrong to tell people that if they’re saved, they won’t do this or that (such as commit sin). I think that is works based salvation and I publicly tell people that’s wrong. But there is one area where things become inconsistent. Because I think believers […]
Durante el descanso navideño, terminé leyendo la autobiografía de Jack Deere, Even in Our Darkness [Incluso en nuestra oscuridad]. Como sugiere el título, la encontré muy oscura. Se lee como una confesión de todas las ocasiones en las que el autor se sintió fracasado como padre, esposo, y amigo, por no mencionar como ministro. En […]
Dick read my recent blog entitled “How to Share Our Faith Clearly and Comfortably by Evangelizing the Way Jesus Evangelized” (see here). That led him to ask this question: Thank you for your ministry, which I have found helpful and encouraging. I do have a question for you, however, centering around the word believe in […]
¿El Evangelio de Juan enseña que Jesús prometió vida eterna que nunca se puede perder? ¿Enseña la seguridad eterna? ¿Es verdadera la doctrina de “una vez salvo, siempre salvo”? Las respuestas a estas preguntas son sí, sí, y sí. ¿Cómo sé? Lea cada de los siguientes versículos: Porque de tal manera amó Dios al mundo, […]
I have started working in earnest on my next book. As a follow-up to Chosen to Serve, which dealt with the doctrine of election, my next book will show that both Limited Atonement and Unlimited Atonement should be rejected because they both (wrongly) assume the benefits of the cross come as a package. My questions […]
By Cody Wallace Dallas Willard on Discipleship Dallas Willard wrote a section on “Discipleship” for the Oxford Handbook of Evangelical Theology. In it, he gives a concise history of how Evangelicals separated salvation from discipleship. For example, Willard claims that WWII was great for soul winning, but bad for discipleship. In fact, he denied that […]
By Summer Stevens As we usher in another year and the world continues to spiral even farther into an orbit of suspicion, fear, and strife, I find myself echoing Habakkuk’s cry. “How long, O Lord…?” How long will You allow this to continue? How long will fear dominate the day? How long will anger be […]
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...
