Słowo „powołany” w Liście do Rzymian
Można by rzec, że nie ma potrzeby pisania tego bloga. Shawn Lazar napisał świetną książkę na ten temat, zatytułowaną „Chosen to Serve” [Wybrani do służenia]. Ale ja zdecydowałem się napisać ten blog, ponieważ napisałem kilka blogów na temat tego, jak pewne słowa są używane w Liście do Rzymian. Do tej pory opisałem dziewięć słów. Musiałem […]
Salvation in the Early Church
Many Free Grace teachers, myself included, maintain that assurance of eternal life is of the essence of saving faith. What we mean by that is that when a person believes in Jesus Christ for eternal life, in that moment they know they have it. That is what Jesus promises. In addition, the word eternal in […]
John, Meet Jeremiah (Jeremiah 37–38)
Jeremiah is widely recognized as a type of Christ. So many things in his life paralleled the life of Christ. But recently, I realized that Jeremiah also foreshadowed another important person in the New Testament. That person would be John the Baptist (JTB). There are also many parallels between JTB and the Lord Jesus. So, […]
La fontana di acqua viva (Geremia 2:13)
La Bibbia è la Parola ispirata di Dio. È ricca di un linguaggio bellissimo e poetico, e metafore meravigliose. Una di queste metafore si trova in Geremia 2:13. Dio viene associato qui ad una “fontana di acqua viva”. Il popolo lo ha rigettato e ha scelto invece delle cisterne rotte che non possono mantenere l’acqua. […]
Słowo „Syn” w Liście do Rzymian
Słowo „syn” [υἱός, huios] występuje 12 razy w Księdze Rzymian (1:3, 4, 9; 5:10; 8:3, 14, 19, 29, 32; 9:9, 26, 27). Siedem z tych razy odnosi się do Jezusa jako Syna Bożego. Jeden raz odnosi się do Izaaka jako syna Abrahama. Jeden raz odnosi się do Żydów jako synów Izraela, a innym razem do […]
On the Winning Team (Mark 4:27-28)
For a short period of my life, one of my favorite people was a guy named Devega. We were in the army together. I had signed up to field a basketball team in a local church league. I was getting older, and my friends who were part of the team were as well. Fortunately, all […]
Suona Familiare (Geremia 9:25-26)
Quando leggo il VT, mi piace vedere qualcosa a cui gli autori del NT fanno specificamente riferimento. Mi ritrovo a leggere e a dire: “Questo mi ricorda qualcosa che ha detto Paolo. Mi chiedo se avesse questo passaggio in mente?’ Talvolta questi riferimenti sono ovvi. Per esempio, Paolo può citare un determinato verso nel VT […]
“The Best Job I Ever Had” (Mark 3:13-19)
As an old army guy, I love a good war movie. One of those is the movie, Fury. It’s a story about a tank crew in World War II. There are five men in the crew, and they experience all the horrors of war together as they fight against Nazi Germany. They have been together […]
A Good Example (Jeremiah 35)
In a previous blog, I wrote about how in Jeremiah 34, we are given a negative example of the Jews in Jeremiah’s day concerning how they treated their slaves. In the very next chapter, Jeremiah gives a positive example that believers even today can learn from. Both the negative and positive examples given in these […]
Das Wort „berufen“ im Römerbrief
Man könnte argumentieren, dass es keinen Grund gibt, diesen Blog zu schreiben. Shawn Lazar hat ein großartiges Buch zu diesem Thema geschrieben, das den Titel „Chosen to Serve“ [Auserwählt zum Dienen] trägt. Aber ich habe mich entschlossen, diesen Blog zu schreiben, weil ich eine Reihe von Blogs darüber geschrieben habe, wie bestimmte Wörter im Römerbrief […]
