Try It! You’ll Like It!

January 1, 2001 by GES Webmaster in Grace in Focus Articles

By Bob Bryant “Try it! You’ll like it!” Some of you may remember that slogan from an Alka-Seltzer TV commercial you saw many years ago. I would like to say the same thing to you about the Lord’s Supper: “Try it! You’ll like it!” In previous articles, I showed you the biblical evidence for a

The Lord’s Supper: A Biblical Foundation for Evangelism

November 1, 2000 by GES Webmaster in Grace in Focus Articles

By Bob Bryant Years ago, if I had read the title, “The Lord’s Supper: A Biblical Foundation for Evangelism,” I would have been perplexed. In my mind, the traditional practice of the Lord’s Supper has little, if any, connection to evangelism. The Bible tells us, however, that our church practices, including our practice of the

All Have Sinned and Fall Short of the Glory of God – Romans 3:23

November 1, 2000 by Bob Wilkin in Grace in Focus Articles

The Romans Road is a popular evangelistic method which walks through a number of verses in Paul’s Epistle to the Romans. While I personally don’t like the way in which most people explain Romans 10:9-10 in that presentation, I do like the way Romans 3:23 is usually presented. However, recently it dawned on me that

Hal M. Haller The gospel according to Jesus has been a hot topic since the first century (cf. Gal 1:6-9). A book by that name was published a decade ago. Jesus’ encounter with the rich young ruler was used prominently by the author in defense of his thesis that to be saved one must yield

“Regeneration: A Crux Interpretum”

September 1, 2000 by GES Webmaster in Journal Articles

David R. Anderson Pastor Faith Community Church The Woodlands, TX Introduction In every “system” of theology there are certain doctrines so imbedded in that system that to uproot them would fell the entire tree. In his excellent work on epistemology, David Wolfe explains that good systematic theology requires four criteria to even qualify as a

How Wide the Divide? A Mormon and an Evangelical in Conversation – A Review

Posted in Book Reviews, Journal Articles

One of the evident characteristics of the late-twentieth century religious scene, which has only intensified in the new millennium, is the desire of disparate confessions to find common ground. While the spirit of ecumenism has often been little more than a euphemism for the dissolution of any distinctiveness in theological expression, it need not be
