Here's an article that Rosanna Montoya wrote for us. Read her story and see if you have ever had to sit through on of "these" church services. I enjoyed the part about the Jesus puppy! Let her know what you think in the comments section! Make Room For Jesus? By Rosanna Montoya Christmas has come and gone and some of us may have been invited to a Church Christmas Program of some ...
While driving home today, I tuned in to 107.9FM (Calvary Chapel's KWVE - the Wave of Living Water). The show Pastor's Perspective was airing; a live call-in format where listeners call and ask the panel of pastors questions that the pastors try to answer. Towards the end of today's show, a guy called in from Hawthorne, a bedraggled fellow, going through a difficult time in life. He mentioned ...
The understanding of the biblical doctrine of regeneration has been lost by many Christians today. This failure to fully understand regeneration starts with a failure to understand that regeneration is entirely a work of God. The problem of presenting a coherent argument for God being active and man as passive in regeneration has sometimes been a tough one for me, especially when faced with a brief meeting between ...
"No tendras dioses ajenos delante de mi. No haras para ti escultura, no imagen alguna de cosa que esta arriba en los cielos, ni abajo en la tierra, ni en las aguas debajo de la tierra. No te inclinaras a ellas, ni las serviras porque yo soy Jehova tu Dios fuerte, celoso, que visito la maldad de los padres sobre los hijos hasta la tercera y cuarta generacion ...
La meta para nosotros en estudiar este pasaje es entender profundamente lo que Pablo queria communicar al creyente. Hoy en dia hay una corriente de humanismo dentro de la fe Cristiana. En Corintios 1:30, Pablo nos dice que es solamente por la obra de Cristo que podemos ver spiritualmente la palabra que nos da la vida eterna. Ahora nos dice halgo sumamente importante. "El cual se hizo para ...
“Pero por obra suya estan ustedes en Cristo Jesus, el cual se hizo para nosotros sabiduria de Dios, y justificacion, santificacion, y rendencion, para que tal como esta escrito: ‘EL QUE SE GLORIA, QUE SE GLORIE EN EL SENOR.’” 1 Corintios 1:30-31Hermanos es de lo mas importante realizar la magnitud de este pasaje de la Escritura. Hoy en dia, el Cristiano va a la iglesia pretendiendo ser santo, ...
As I read the gospel of Matthew recently, I was caught by verse 12 of chapter 11. In the context of the chapter, Jesus had finished giving instruction to His disciples and went out teaching in the cities. John was in prison and had doubts about Jesus being the Messiah. Jesus tells about John the Baptist, and how there is no man born of women who is greater ...
An interview with Doug Pagitt, a highly influential Emergent Church leader. If you've ever wondered what Emergent's believe and what type of apologetic method they use, after this two part interview by Todd Friel of Way of the Master Radio (approx. 15 mins), you'll at least have pretty good idea based on the words of one of their own. As for the title of this post, you'll have ...
In the recent past, I have developed a love of art. This piece is located at Lviv State University, located in the Western portion of the Ukraine. There are a series of paintings by Jan Matejko, a famous Polish Artist. The series of paintings entitled "Triumph of Progress," is described as depicting allegorically, based on biblical stories and ancient mythology, the progression of human thought as the basis ...
Looking forward to coming to work this morning, I made my way over to feed my addiction at the local Starbucks. I walked in and noticed as I stood in line, the lady in front of me had her plastic case with Awake magazines. She paid for her drink and as she walked out she called to her partner who was tearing open a packet of Splenda to ...
The following article will demonstrate the role of God in salvation. I will demonstrate first that God is the Initiator of salvation, not man, therefore giving all the glory to God alone. This work, while apologetic in nature, will put forth a doxological tone as it is an attempt to increase our understanding of God as He has revealed himself in Scripture. It is to Him alone, the ...
I'm not your television evangelist. I'm not coming through your idiot box, could be more crooked than L.A. cops, that is for sure. I am trying to come up fresh upon this screen, no Armani suits, only one gold ring; my marriage ring. These last sentences come from one of Odd Thomas' songs entitled Television Evangelist. The reason for this posting is to remember a trip I took ...
