Question: Am I truly being a disciple if I’m doing it alone? Answer: That’s a good question, especially for today, when social media has become a substitute for flesh and blood relationships with real people. There are extreme circumstances where you have no choice but to be alone. I’m thinking about someone who comes to […]
Martin asks a question that deals with the Rapture but also applies to the gift of everlasting life: The age of accountability is always mentioned when dealing with the death of a child or someone with mental disabilities. In 1 Thess 4:17, does the harpazō [catching up, i.e., the Rapture] include those who have not […]
La palabra “muerte” (thanatos) ocurre 22 veces en la carta a los Romanos. (La palabra “muerte” [nekros] ocurre 16 veces). A menudo, al oír la palabra “muerte,” las personas piensan que la Biblia está hablando sobre la muerte eterna—o lo que sucede cuando una persona va al infierno. Lo más a menudo esto pasa con […]
When you’ve done something wrong, and you know you’ll be in trouble, the natural instinct is often to run and hide. That’s what the first sinners did after they committed the first sin and knew they’d be in trouble (i.e., that they would die!). So they tried to hide from God: And they heard the […]
Cada primavera, tengo las mejores intenciones de cultivar un jardín abundante. Pero cada año en el otoño, todo lo que tengo es una maraña de maleza y apenas un puñado de tomates tipo “cherry.” ¿Puedes adivinar por qué? Recientemente escuché dos ilustraciones populares que comparan la vida cristiana con la agricultura y la jardinería y […]
Nikki asks a very important question: If one is saved by believing in Jesus, then why does Rom 4:24—“Now it [Gen 15:6] was not written for his sake alone that it [righteousness] was imputed to him, but also for us. It shall be imputed to us who believe in Him who raised up Jesus our […]
In Jesus’ sermon on the plain, He gives some extremely demanding commands: “But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you. To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. […]
Shawn y yo recibimos esta pregunta de nuestro amigo llamado John: Necesito ayuda para responder a una pregunta. Estoy hablando con alguien que no está luchando contra un pecado recurrente sino con un pecado del pasado que ha sido confesado y perdonado (1 Juan 1:9). Esta persona sigue viniendo a Cristo y confesando el mismo […]
Even the most gifted Bible teachers can sometimes preach a confusing saving message. For example, I’m sure most readers of this blog are familiar with Dr. J. Vernon McGee’s Thru the Bible commentary. I’ve been reading through his comments on Luke’s Gospel and found his remarks on Luke 3:8 to be confusing. “John’s message was […]
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...
