Mientras trabajaba en mi autobiografía, escribí sobre mis primeros años en la GES. En aquel tiempo, algunos de los miembros del consejo creían que la Salvación por Señorío era un mensaje que salva. No me malentiendas. Estaban opuestos a la Salvación Por Señorío. Sentían que era una enseñanza falsa. No obstante, ellos creían que la […]
A lot of Evangelicals suggest that before we share the promise of everlasting life to the one who believes in Jesus (or, as the Lordship Salvation person would say, to the one who commits his life to Christ, obeys Christ, and perseveres in obedience), we must first convince the person we are talking with that […]
When I was in elementary school, Chuck Taylor’s Converse All-Stars were the shoes to wear. So I begged my mom for some, and to my surprise, she agreed. I couldn’t wait to get my own pair of the canvas high tops with the coveted star on the ankle. I would finally fit in! When Mom […]
Over the next few weeks, due to coronavirus restrictions, many churches will be doing online services and you will be worshiping at home. The current situation is a good reminder that the Church is the people, not the building. The buildings might close, but the Body of Christ goes on. I pray that doing online […]
When the plague struck Wittenberg, Germany, in 1527, people wrote to Martin Luther, asking his advice about what to do. In particular, he was asked whether it was right to run away from the plague. Luther said it depended. On what? On who you are. What role do you have in life? Whether or not […]
I received a super question from Europe via email: I have got a question for your podcast or for a blog article. How can you know what “Christ” means, without John 11:25-27? And can you recommend a monograph about what “Jesus is the Christ” means? I have got the impression that only a few theologians […]
A basic Biblical distinction more or less ignored by most Christian theologians is the difference between “the Gospel of the kingdom,” as emphasized in the Synoptic Gospels, and the “promise of eternal life,” as emphasized in John’s Gospel. Part of the kingdom gospel included the call to repentance. Since most theologians improperly mix the promise […]
Response #1: If the Lord Wills James 4:15 Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit”; whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor […]
How should Christians act during the coronavirus epidemic? There have been many epidemics throughout the history of the church. For example, in 1527, there was an outbreak of plague in Martin Luther’s city of Wittenberg. Since Luther was a pastor’s pastor, many asked him for advice. Here’s some of what he told them: I shall […]
Jesus commanded you to love (Mark 12:31). Paul said that if you do not have love, you are nothing (1 Cor 13:2). And John said “We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother abides in death” (1 John 3:14). Love is […]
