Why does healing sometimes feel broken even when we believe God still heals? What if your pain isn’t punishment—but preparation? Can faith and restoration truly meet us in our weakness? Why Healing Feels Broken is a Christian healing book that invites readers into a spiritual healing journey—one where brokenness and healing coexist, and God’s power is revealed through suffering. Instead of chasing instant miracles, this book offers a biblical perspective on healing rooted in humility, alignment, and the posture of the Lamb. Through rich teaching and pastoral wisdom, Eual A. Phillips...

In the first four chapters of his letter to the Corinthian church, which was obviously not originally divided into four easy-to-read chapters, Paul talked about a division in the church that he had learned about from either Chloe or from a person in Chloe's household. Then in the next four chapters of this first volume of a commentary on the book of First Corinthians, he talked about fornication in the church, taking a brother or sister in the Lord to court, to marry or not to marry, and the Christian position on eating meats that had been offered to idols. But in looking at his ...

Un comentario actual y tan desafiante como epístola escrita por el apóstol Pablo.

Epistemology is the study of the theory of knowledge. What is knowledge about God, reality and self? This project is an exercise in applied epistemology. Worldviews provide the environment for thinking that leads to a better understanding of God and reality. Worldview thinking may also provide the means for the person to acquire knowledge, justified true beliefs about God and reality. The former seeks understanding and uses reason and thinking to achieve comprehension. The latter seeks knowledge, justified true belief about what can be known. The exercise's focus is on understanding or ...

This book is a series of 28 sermons on the Parable of the Prodigal from Luke 15. "The main scope of this parable is to set forth the rich grace of God to miserable self-undone sinners, and the great pleasure which he takes in their conversion. It therefore presents us with the pattern of a grievous sinner, and discovers to us, both what he is before conversion, and how he is converted, and what welcome he finds with God upon his return unto him." Samuel Willard (1640-1707) was a New England puritan Born in 1640 at Concord, Massachusetts, Samuel Willard was one of the most important ...

This book argues that the New Testament rejects both a lone “me-and-Jesus” individualism and a faceless, group-identity collectivism, and instead presents salvation as deeply personal and fiercely corporate—God saving a people in Christ, by sovereign grace, one sinner at a time. It defines “collective salvation” as God redeeming a people (laos, sōma, ekklēsia), where individuals are saved into a body, not as detached atoms. Scripture’s corporate language (Israel as “my people,” federal headship in Adam and Christ, the Church as body/bride/holy nation) shows that salvation ...

Hay un dicho muy popular que afirma que del otro lado “nadie ha vuelto para decirnos si es verdad o es mentira esto de la otra vida”, pero nada más falso que esta frase. Decía Epicuro “lo que los hombres temen no es que la muerte sea la aniquilación sino que no lo sea”, por este motivo se cierran a la evidencia bíblica y a las implicaciones de la resurrección de Jesús de Nazaret. Cosmovisión Bíblica ofrece este artículo para responder bíblicamente a las preguntas: ¿Hay vida después de la muerte?¿Existe un periodo entre la muerte y el destino eterno? Y si lo hay ¿Dónde...

The piece argues that the modern “church planter” concept is a late, human-invented construct born out of 19th–20th-century missiology—the academic habit of systematizing mission work using theology plus social sciences—and especially out of recent evangelical church-growth culture. It sketches a brief history of missiology: mission in the NT and early church is simply narrated; medieval Catholicism talks about plantatio Ecclesiae as the church being planted in new lands; Protestant mission societies explode in the 18th–19th centuries; then figures like Warneck and Schmidlin ...

While most Calvinism vs Arminianism books focus on the five points of Calvinism, this book explains how Arminianism ruins every single major soteriological issue, beginning with scripture and the sovereignty of God, then onto man's sin, God's love and election, his justification, and so on. Arminian theology elevates man by denying the corruption of sin and insisting on the freedom of the human will, which then necessarily leads to a denial of God's sovereignty. It denies the complete justification of forgiveness and imputation, and places in man the ability to attain perfection while ...

Luis de Molina's Concordia of Free Will (Parts 4, 5, and 6) Luis de Molina’s Concordia liberi arbitrii, first published in 1588, remains a cornerstone of 16th-century theology and philosophy, emerging amid the intellectual vitality of Iberian scholasticism and the Catholic response to the Reformation. This monumental work addresses the challenge of reconciling human freedom with divine grace, foreknowledge, providence, predestination, and reprobation—sparking the famous De Auxiliis controversy within the Catholic Church. This volume presents Parts 4, 5, and 6 of the Concordia, which ...

Even those who are preaching the gospel. Get some critical insights into the gospel. Find out What the true purpose of Jesus coming is, What He accomplished for us, And how people can receive what Jesus has already done for them.So you can ...

So many of the discussions that we hear today about “Social Justice” are missing the centerpiece of everything: Jesus’ justice. An observation such as this is not at all trivial. Those who try to define justice apart from the One who is holy, righteous, and just may as well try to build a sky-scraper without a blueprint or engineer. History reveals that when mere mortals contrive their own definitions and standards of justice, grave atrocities often result. Remarkably, this historical habit is occurring once again. Many today are proceeding as the torch-bearers of a new pathway to ...

Redemption is the heartbeat of the Bible. From Genesis to Revelation, the sacred pages tell one great and unified story—a story not fragmented or accidental, but divinely orchestrated from before time began. This story of redemption is not linear alone, nor does it end in tragedy or suspension; it is circular in nature. It begins in the eternal heart and mind of God before the foundation of the world and circles back to the eternal future where God will dwell with His redeemed people in a restored creation forever. It is a cycle of divine love, justice, mercy, and glory that unfolds ...

How do we justify a connection between Manufactured Consent and Church? Creeds? Perhaps it's best to begin this discussion by explaining what manufactured consent means. The Origins and Development of the Phrase Manufactured Consent The phrase "manufactured consent" has its roots not in the late twentieth century, but in the early decades of the twentieth century. Its first significant use appears in Walter Lippmann’s[i] influential work Public Opinion (1922).[ii] Writing in the aftermath of World War I and in the midst of the rapid expansion of mass media, Lippmann observed that modern ...

From Johann Agricola in the 1520s to Old School Baptists in the 1800s, “Antinomians” consistently read 1 Timothy 1:8–9 as teaching that the law is only for the ungodly, not for believers.English Antinomians (1600s) John Eaton: To bring the righteous under the law is to use it unlawfully. Tobias Crisp: The law is good only in its place — for the lawless, not the righteous. Robert Towne: For the righteous, the law has no power nor is it their rule of life. John Saltmarsh: The believer’s rule is Christ, not Moses.Old School Baptists (1800s) Gilbert Beebe: The law was never given as a...

These reflections are meditations about the Spiritual Dimension of Existence (SDE). The SDE Worldview assumption holds that all human beings possess God's Endowment: the Image of God. Each individual is a Created-Person with a vast library of spiritual characteristics, fashioned together in profound complexity and experienced in daily life and thought. Everyone at some stage of life will ask in wonder what lies beyond the Epistemic Horizon. Avoidance of ultimate questions concerning significance, meaning, belief, truth, knowledge, and value is not a live option. Suppressing the quest for ...

The dark side of the self of fallen humanity is a complexity of separations from the God of all creation. Separation from the God of light, meaning, knowledge, truth, wisdom, goodness, righteousness, holiness, love, and life portends separations to darkness, misery, despair, torment, suffering, and, in due course, eternal death for unbelievers from which, as far as we know, there is no escape from the agony, in isolation from all relief. These separations from God can only be known as Hell. That the propitiation of the wrath of God against sin and sinners had to be atoned by the sacrifice ...

¿Es la salvación un privilegio exclusivo de los elegidos? ¿O podría la misericordia de Dios extenderse más allá de lo que hemos imaginado?
