If given the opportunity, what would you tell someone he had to do to be saved from eternal condemnation? Why This Is Important If someone gives the wrong directions to heaven, it is more than frustrating. From a human standpoint, false gospels are leading people away from everlasting life, not toward it. Compare John 5:39-40 […]
I started reading through Jack Deere’s autobiography, Even in Our Darkness. His story so far has been very dark. But I think you’ll appreciate how he came to faith in Jesus: I’m not sure what prompted me, but on December 18, 1965, at 2 a.m., as I lay in bed in the dark, I asked […]
La navidad se acerca rápidamente. Pronto celebraremos el nacimiento de nuestro Salvador, Jesucristo. Cuando recordamos su nacimiento, una parte de la historia tiene que ver con una estrella vista por unos magos del oriente. La siguieron hasta Judea y vinieron a Jerusalén para conocer al Rey. No sabemos cómo supieron que la estrella les dirigiría […]
A. S., a reader, asks this fascinating question: In relation to Matthew 22:37 and John 3:16—in your own understanding what is the right interpretation of the two verses in relation to each other? Thanks, and stay blessed in Jesus’ name! The Lord was often asked about the greatest commandments in the OT. The reason was […]
On October 2, 2006, Charles Carl Roberts IV, a milk truck driver, walked into a one-room Amish schoolhouse and shot eight students, killing five of them. The tragedy was widely covered. The Amish response to the tragedy received almost as much coverage as the tragedy itself. They forgave the shooter. In fact, they reached out […]
La apostasía es una renuncia de la fe. No es estrictamente un término religioso. Por ejemplo, ya que Ronald Reagan era un ex-demócrata, fue un apóstata en términos de sus creencias políticas previas. La pregunta es, ¿Puede un creyente dejar de creer en Cristo? La respuesta es, sí. Las Escrituras ofrecen varios ejemplos. El apóstol […]
The word for “condemnation” in the Book of Romans is katakrima. It only occurs three times in the book. In fact, these are the only times the word occurs in all of the NT. The three instances are found in Rom 5:16, 18, and Rom 8:1. In 5:16, Paul writes, while talking about Adam’s sin, […]
The title of my blog is the title of a book by Dean Inserra. The subtitle helps explain what he means in the title: “Reaching Cultural Christianity with the Gospel.” I have often said that most Evangelicals need evangelizing (see here, for example). So, I agree in principle with Inserra. However, there is a major […]
Si te gusta la fruta, aquí está una característica interesante del árbol de la vida, descrita en Ap 22:2: En medio de la calle de la ciudad, y a uno y otro lado del río, estaba el árbol de la vida, que produce doce frutos, dando cada mes su fruto; y las hojas del árbol […]
One rule of interpretation is called the analogy of faith (read about it here, or listen about it here). Put simply, the analogy of faith means that, since Scripture is self-consistent, you should interpret Scripture in light of other Scripture. And wherever there is an unclear verse, you should look for a clear verse to […]
