We are nearly done with the final proofing of the second edition of our one-volume NT commentary. (The first edition came out in 2010, and we sold the last copies in January of this year.) We hope to have it in print by December 19. I’ve been going through changes that Al Valdes made in […]
What does a practical “Christian spirituality” look like? That’s what I’m seeking to understand as I seek to follow the Lord more closely and to raise my kids to do the same. The problem those of us in the Free Grace movement typically realize is that so much of today’s teaching about “spirituality” assumes a […]
Here is a powerful passage about the church, eternal rewards, and temporal judgment. There is much in this passage for every believer. Rewards are in view. After all, Paul says “he will receive a reward [misthos, wages].” However, there are some well-intentioned misunderstandings which can be quickly eliminated. Misconception #1: This Means There Will Be […]
A friend sent me this excellent question: I am teaching on 1 Cor 3:10-17 Sunday. What is weird is I have not seen anyone handle the part of 3:15 that says, “but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.” Everyone comments on “suffer loss.” My problem is that everyone, no matter how […]
What does it mean to be sanctified? What’s supposed to happen to the sin in your life? As I’ve been meditating on that subject—wondering to what extent Scripture describes sanctification as a process, or as an event, or as both—I noticed some of the verbs that Paul uses to describe what has happened, or what […]

The Lord’s Prayer may be one of the most famous prayers in the world. The vast majority of Christians—from Catholic to Charismatic—say it regularly. It’s something we can all agree on, isn’t it? But what if the vast majority have managed to get it wrong? Right before Jesus gave us that model prayer, He emphasized […]
“Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God. In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not […]
I thank my God, making mention of you always in my prayers, hearing of your love and faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints that the sharing of your faith may become effective by the acknowledgment of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus. For we have great joy and consolation
And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand (John 10:28). The Lord Jesus makes five different never...
