Se você é um crente na graça – ao contrário de muitas pessoas na cristandade – você não está preocupado em ser julgado por sua salvação eterna porque Jesus resolveu essa questão no momento em que você acreditou Nele para a salvação eterna: “Em verdade vos digo: quem ouve a minha palavra e crê naquele […]
Over the Christmas break, I finished Jack Deere’s autobiography, Even in Our Darkness. And as the title suggests, it was very dark. The book reads like a confession of all the many ways Deere felt he failed as a father, husband, and friend, not to mention as a minister. In a world where many Charismatics […]
¿Afirmó Jesús ser Dios? ¿Y afirmó ser Dios en los Evangelios Sinópticos? En el Evangelio de Juan la deidad de Jesús es mucho más inequívoca y más explícita que en los Sinópticos, y algunos académicos incluso han afirmado que, en Mateo, Marcos o Lucas, Jesús nunca afirmó ser Dios. ¿Es eso cierto? En su libro, […]
Bob G. commented on a recent blog by me: Interesting. A similar reasoning might be helpful in the consideration of Jephthah and his daughter. It is plainly wrong to vow to the LORD and not pay—but it is arguably more wrong (is that a thing?) to offer a child as a burnt offering for the […]
¿Afirmó Jesús ser Dios? Considera el episodio en que Jesús calmó la tormenta: Aquel día, cuando llegó la noche, les dijo: Pasemos al otro lado. Y despidiendo a la multitud, le tomaron como estaba, en la barca; y había también con él otras barcas. Pero se levantó una gran tempestad de viento, y echaba las […]
How many conditions of salvation are there? Is making restitution one of them? It is, according to this Pentecostal statement of faith: CONDITIONS FOR SALVATION Even though Christ made atonement for the sins of the world, reaping the benefits is on condition. That condition is that the individual must repent of their sins. [Matthew 3:2; […]
Um amigo me enviou esta pergunta de segunda mão: “Se Deus deseja que sempre tenhamos livre arbítrio, por que Ele não permitiria que devolvêssemos o dom gratuito da vida eterna se assim o desejássemos?” Esta é uma objeção comum. Também me disseram que embora ninguém possa nos arrebatar das mãos de Jesus (João 10:28) ou […]
If you have shared your faith with people, you know that some people think that Jesus was just a good man. They may even think that He was the best of men. But they do not believe that He is the Messiah, the long-promised Savior of the world, God in the flesh, and the King […]
“La mayoría de los cristianos no saben nada acerca de las recompensas divinas,” explicó Jack Deere, “y los predicadores rara vez predican sobre ellas, lo cual es asombroso dada la frecuencia con la que Jesús enseñó sobre ellas.” ¿Alguna vez has escuchado acerca de la doctrina de las recompensas eternas? Si lees la Biblia, deberías […]
Does John’s Gospel teach that Jesus promised everlasting life that can never be lost? Does it teach eternal security? Is the doctrine of “once saved, always saved” true? The answers are yes, yes, and yes. How do I know? Read each of the following verses: “For God so loved the world that He gave His […]
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...
