Salvation (870)
  1. John Pless offers thoughts on preaching for your midweek Lent sermons.
  2. God interrupts Peter, but not only to quiet him. He also directs Peter to listen to someone else.
  3. Just Think of This As a Friendly Test That Could Get You Thrown into Hell, Or Not... Your Choice. Why do we demand that the choice be ours as regards our salvation or damnation? How does the doctrine of free will result in us hating God and each other? What about the influence of free will and predestination on popular culture?
  4. Christianity has never been about getting people to clam up and look the part. It’s about Christ calling sinners to himself.
  5. This article begins an eight-part series inspired by the Lenten themes of catechesis, prayer, and repentance found in the Lord’s Prayer as Luther taught it in his Small Catechism.
  6. The Only Wrong Choice Is to Not Make a Choice... Where does the belief in free will originate? Is free will a biblical doctrine? How does Justin’s teaching on free will and salvation still influence the church and western culture today?
  7. His resurrection reveals that Jonah, and all of us, even the evilest people, are salvageable, even from suicide, in Jesus' death and resurrection.
  8. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus establishes a whole new standard for what it means to live as one of His people.
  9. This is our frontier religion: God is waiting to shower blessings upon us if only we will unlock those blessings with the right kind of works, and a sufficient quantity of the same.
  10. The easiest way for us to contend with our sin is to become an agent of sin. We slice and cut others to pieces for all the world to see.
  11. The followers of Jesus have a function to perform. When they do not perform it—that is, when they are not being themselves—the world suffers.
  12. It’s a delivery of historical facts that tells us who Jesus is and what he has done for us through his dying on the cross and his rising from the grave.
