Confession of Sin

How should we respond together to the Lord’s discipline?

Ian Johnson September 3, 2024 0 Comments

The passage from Hebrews 12:11-17 discusses the Lord’s discipline and how believers should support one another through it. Discipline, though painful, leads to righteousness and peace. This unified response showcases peace and holiness, helping others to see the Lord through our lives. Holiness and peace are essential for believers.

Hebreos 12:11-17 se centra en la disciplina del Señor y nuestra respuesta junta. Dios nos disciplina para mejorarnos y hacernos justos. Debemos apoyar a otros creyentes en su disciplina, promoviendo paz y santidad. Esto permite que otros vean al Señor a través de nuestras vidas. La clave es Hebreos 12:14.

Many times it seems to me that people have decided to treat me as non-existent. How should I love them?

About “Turn, Turn, Turn” by “The Byrds”

This is my fear and my hope. There is a time to dance, although I could never dance. There is a time to hug each other. There is a time for peace. There is a time to love. Will that time come during my lifetime? I do not know.

Responde a la canción vieja «Turn, Turn». Hay un tiempo para todo. Pero espero que el tiempo de bailar, abrazarse y hacerse paz no haya pasado ya.

You Are Not the One to Build, Part 6A: Persons given to the Church and formal “offices.”

Ian Johnson August 27, 2023 3 Comments

Addresses the subject of the roles of the people said in Ephesians 4 to be “given” to the Church by Christ and the qualifications and roles of church officers mentioned in the New Testament–overseers, officially recognized elders, and church servants (deacons). Also discusses the role of elders–older people in the church–even when not formally recognized as leaders, with application to me, the author of this presentation.

The first of a series of videos about God giving people things to start which he does not then permit them to finish. God does this for his own glory, and, sometimes to protect his own reputation, as was the case in King David’s preparations to build a Temple–and also in my own life.

Distinction Between “Sin” (Singular) and “Sins” (Plural)–Part 5–First John

Ian Johnson June 25, 2022 2 Comments

The Scriptures generally draw a qualitative distinction between “sin,” in the singular, and “sins,” in the plural. “Sin” is our inward attitude of rebellion against God. “Sins” are bad actions. This post gives examples from First John which paint a picture of the complete Christian life.
