Zacharias’ Disbelief and Divine Discipline (Luke 1:18-22)

October 14, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - discipline, Doubt, Luke, Zacharias
Did you know that even the oldest, godliest believers can doubt God…and be disciplined for it? If you were a member of the clergy, a priest of God, and a blameless man who had served the Lord for many decades, and an angel appeared to you announcing that God heard your prayer and would answer

Assured of the Promises

July 20, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Assurance, Doubt, promises
I was talking to a Presbyterian gentleman—a fellow admirer of Gordon Clark and John Robbins—about how Calvinists understood the nature of faith. When I asked his opinion as to whether they thought that assurance was of the essence of saving faith, he said they clearly did. “After all, when Jesus promised, ‘I go and prepare

I received this email question from a reader: In the article “The One Who Believes: Is Continuous Faith Required to be Born Again?” by Bob Wilkin ( https://faithalone.org/magazine/y2006/06jf1.html ) in the second footnote regarding John 4:13, Bob Wilkin mentions: ‘Amazingly, Wallace says ho pinōn here means, “everyone who continually drinks…,” ibid, p. 621, text.

The Enormity and Elusiveness of Repentance

October 15, 2012 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Doubt, monasticism, Orthodox, Repentance, Salvation, salvation by works, st sisoes
Whenever I hear it said that repentance is a condition of eternal salvation, I think of St. Sisoes the Great (d. 429). Sisoes was one of the first great monastics—St. Anthony’s successor—who lived deep in the Scetian Desert, in an area known today as Wadi El Natrun. I think of Sisoes because of the story
