Did Jesus Claim to Be God_ (1)

Did Jesus claim to be God? And in the Synoptic Gospels did He claim to be God? In John’s Gospel Jesus’ deity is much more unambiguous and more explicit than in the Synoptics, and some academics have even claimed that in Matthew, Mark, or Luke, Jesus never claimed to be God. Is that true? In […]

Disciples Indeed

On a recent episode of Grace in Focus Radio (April 17), Shawn and Bob discussed John 8:30-32. This is an often-misunderstood passage of Scripture. In verse 30 it says that while the Lord was speaking “many believed in Him.” This phrase is a standard phrase in the Gospel of John for those who are saved […]

¿Los creyentes están bajo la ley hoy en día_

Recibí una pregunta por correo electrónico hoy. Una persona escribió, “parece que Gálatas 2:19 y Romanos 6:14 dicen que los creyentes ya no están bajo la ley de Moisés, ni bajo ninguna ley. Cuando nos hacemos creyentes, somos liberados de la ley. ¿He perdido el tren?” Pienso que el interlocutor tiene un pie en el […]

Did Jesus Claim to Be God_

Did Jesus claim to be God? Consider the episode when Jesus stilled the storm: On the same day, when evening had come, He said to them, “Let us cross over to the other side.” Now when they had left the multitude, they took Him along in the boat as He was. And other little boats […]

Why is suffering with Christ linked with being a joint heir with Him_

On Sunday night, my wife Sharon showed me a video of a sermon she was watching. Sharon doesn’t watch sermons on her phone. Something must be special here. She was watching a video of the sermon that Pastor Bob Bryant of Cypress Valley Bible Church gave that Sunday. The sermon was on Rom 8:17-18 and […]

Todos que vienen a Jesús tienen la vida eterna (Juan 5_39-40)

[Capítulo 12 del próximo libro: ‘Solo por Fe’ en Cien Versículos]   “Escudriñad las Escrituras; porque a vosotros os parece que en ellas tenéis la vida eterna; y ellas son las que testifican de mí; y no queréis venir a mí para que tengáis vida” (Juan 5:39-40) GUARDAR LA LEY NO RESULTARÁ EN LA VIDA […]

Praying for All the Saints

Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints— (Eph 6:18). My prayer life is not as it should be. I’ve gone through different “phases” of prayer—a legalistic phase (complete with prayer book[s]), a mystical phase, and, frankly, many dry […]

Isn’t the salvation of your soul in James 1_21 referring to eternal salvation_

During shelter in place, I received this question: Hello. In this article by Bob Wilkin, he states “In none of the four uses outside of our passage is eternal salvation in view.” The first usage of the word save in the Book of James connects the word save to soul (“Therefore put away all filthiness […]

The Right Attitude During Coronavirus (1)

Bill Fiess, frequent Grace in Focus contributor, sent me a reminder of the right attitude to have during the coronavirus lockdown. His email was to the point: I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth (Ps 34:1). In everything give thanks; for this is the will of […]

May 1, 2020   in Grace in Focus Articles

By Dix Winston What is the most important verse in the Bible? Several years ago I heard a Jewish conservative radio personality being asked that question. Since then I have asked many Christians the same question. John 3:16, “For God so loved the world…” is the most often chosen verse. A distant second is, “You […]
