Romans–Part 2–Romans 1:16 (concl.), Romans 10:1
, , , , ,
Welcome to Grace in Focus radio. We are currently going through a series, where we look at five books in the new testament, to see how the different writers used the terms "saved" and "salvation." Just as the word "trunk" can refer to a piece of luggage, a tree, or the back of a car, the term "saved" can mean different things depending on the context. So far, Bob and Shawn have looked at Philippians and James, to see how these terms are used differently. The guys are now looking at the third book in this series, the epistle to the church at Rome. On the program today, we will hear the guys address Romans 1:16 and 10:1. Join us, as we attempt to unpack this important term.
Romans–Part 1–Romans 1:16
, , , ,
In the bible, the terms "saved" and "salvation" can mean different things depending on the context of the book it appears in. This is known as "range of meaning." Over the last few episodes, we have seen how Paul used these terms in Philippians, and we also saw how James used them in his epistle, both referring to different things. Over the next few episodes of Grace in Focus Radio, Bob and Shawn will be discussing how Paul uses this term in his letter to the church at Rome in a third way. To begin, the guys will give special attention to Romans 1:16 on the show today. In addition to the term "saved" in the book of Romans, we will also hear the guys address the term "wrath" and more.
James–Part 5–James 5:19-20 (cont.)
, , , ,
Welcome to Grace in Focus Radio. Over the last few episodes, Bob and Shawn have been addressing the term "saved" or "salvation" in the epistle of James. This discussion is part of our current series, where the guys will address five books in the new testament, to see how they each use this term within their specific contexts. On todays episode, we will hear the guys address the final example of the term "save" in the book of James, found in 5:20. In addition to the term "save" we also see James use the term "soul" in this passage. Bob will provide some insights to this passage in light of the context and its connection to 1:21.
James –Part 4 –James 4:12; 5:15; 5:19-20

Welcome to Grace in Focus Radio. Bob and Shawn are in the middle of a series, where they are looking at five books in the new testament to see how those books use the term "salvation." They are currently looking at the epistle of James. Today, we will hear the guys address a few passages in James including 4:12 and 5:15. What did James mean when he said that "there is one Lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy?" What kind of salvation is James describing in this verse? In addition, what kind of salvation does James have in mind when he says we can save those who wander from the truth (5:19-20)? We will hear the guys address these issues and more as we unpack this important term.
James–Part 3–James 2:14 (cont.)
, , , ,
Welcome to Grace in Focus Radio. Currently, we are in a series where we explore the different meanings of the word "saved" by looking at five books in the new testament. Today, we will hear Bob and Shawn continue to discuss James, giving special attention to 2:14. Martin Luther famously called the epistle of James an "epistle of straw;" this is, in part, due to his struggle to harmonize passages such as 2:14 with the rest of the new testament. Was Luther right? Should we just throw this epistle out and ignore it? On the show, we will hear the guys address this tough text, and hopefully shed some light on how to harmonize it with the truths found elsewhere in the bible. We hope you can join us as we strive to keep grace in focus.
James–Part 1–James 1:21

Today on Grace in Focus Radio, Bob and Shawn will be discussing the word "saved" or "salvation" in the book of James. We will hear the guys address five verses in the epistle of James during this series, where the term saved is used including 1:21 and 4:12. We will also hear them address the expression "save your souls." Is James using this term to refer to salvation from hell? What is the context of the book of James? Join us as we attempt to unpack this important term inside the book of James.
Philippians – Part 3 – Philippians 2:12

Over the last few episodes we have heard them explore the book of Philippians, giving special attention to 1:19 and 1:28. Today, they will finish up with this book by looking at Phil 2:12. We will hear the guys unpack this difficult verse in light of the fact that salvation from hell is not by fear or works.
