Is Lordship Salvation a Great Deal or a Fraud?
By Mike Lii In my family, I’m notorious for being a bargain hunter. I get a thrill when I can purchase a high-value item at a heavily discounted price. For example, my wife and son get hot during parts of the day during the summer months here in Texas. Why? I selected a nights-free electricity […]
What’s in a Word? Jesus and the Holocaust
By Ken Yates INTRODUCTION It is fascinating to study how the meanings of words develop and how different languages use a word. Recently, I heard a Spanish speaker use a word over and over again in a sermon. It was a word with which I was unfamiliar. At first, I thought he was saying causto. […]
Сила благодати
Не уверен, что я когда-либо встречался с ним лично, но меня поразил один преподаватель в моей семинарии. Его звали Джек Дир (англ. Jack Deere). Он преподавал на кафедре Ветхого Завета. Я понимаю, что это стереотип, однако в моем понимании учёные, изучающие Ветхий Завет, наиболее стойкие из всех преподавателей Библии. Они всегда казались мне более менее […]
What Is the Kingdom of God?
In Mark 4, the Lord gives a series of parables that revolve around the kingdom of God. I think there are many believers who don’t realize how important a correct understanding of the kingdom of God is when it comes to interpreting the Scriptures. In a short parable, the Lord says the kingdom of God […]
Ang Kapangyarihan Ng Biyaya
Hindi ako tiyak kung nagkita kami, ngunit isang propesor sa seminaryong aking pinag-aralan ang bumibighani sa akin. Ang kaniyang pangalan ay Jack Deere. Nagtuturo siya sa departamento ng Lumang Tipan. Nauunawaan kong ito ay esteryotipo, pero sa aking isipan, ang mga iskolar ng Lumang Tipan ay ang pinakaistoiko sa lahat ng mga guro ng Biblia. […]
Spašeni bogohulnik
U nedavnom razgovoru s prijateljem saznala sam da sotonisti prakticiraju ritual u kojem javno psuju Boga kao dio svojih ceremonija štovanja. To čine i na društvenim mrežama, ne samo da bi se rugali Gospodinu i kršćanstvu, nego i zato što žele postati “nespasivi”. Rečeno im je da, ako pohule na Gospodina, nikada više neće moći […]
The Golden Lady
Among the many atrocities the Nazis committed during WW2 was the plundering of priceless Jewish heirlooms. They raided the homes of affluent Jewish families, deported them to camps, then looted their jewelry and fine art. They stole works by artists such as Van Gogh, Manet, and Rembrandt, to name just a few. This is considered […]
El poder de la Gracia
No estoy seguro de haberlo llegado a conocer en persona, pero un profesor del seminario al que asistí me fascinaba. Su nombre era Jack Deere. Enseñaba en el departamento del Antiguo Testamento. Sé que es un estereotipo, pero en mi cabeza, los eruditos del Antiguo Testamento son los más estoicos de todos los enseñantes bíblicos. […]
Hulitorul Salvat
Recent, într-o conversație cu un prieten, am aflat că sataniștii practică un ritual în care Îl hulesc public pe Dumnezeu ca parte a ceremoniilor lor de închinare. Fac asta și pe rețelele de socializare, nu doar pentru a batjocori creștinismul, ci și pentru că vor să devină „nesalvabili”. Li s-a spus că, dacă Îl hulesc […]
Il potere della grazia
Non sono sicuro di averlo mai incontrato, ma al seminario che frequentavo c’era un professore che mi intrigava. Si chiamava Jack Deere e insegnava al dipartimento dell’Antico Testamento. Mi rendo conto che si tratta di uno stereotipo, ma nella mia mente gli studiosi dell’AT sono i più stoici tra tutti gli insegnanti della Bibbia. Mi […]
