¿Hay Algo Que Dios No Puede Perdonar?

August 28, 2024 1 Comment

El texto explica que Dios no puede perdonarnos los rencores entre nosotros, ya que solo nosotros somos los dueños de esos sentimientos y debemos decidir perdonar. Jesús enseña que si no perdonamos a otros, Dios no nos perdonará. Dios valora la reconciliación y nos llama a vivir en el perdón.

Un rencor encarcela a todas sus partes

August 27, 2024 0 Comments

Guardando rencor, no solo uno se daña a sí mismo, sino que ambas partes quedan atrapadas en una prisión emocional hasta que se libere el rencor. Jesús enseña que debemos perdonar infinitamente y sin contabilizar las ofensas, mostrando compasión y misericordia hacia los demás, como Dios lo hace con nosotros.

Am I blind? Can I spot a thief?

August 26, 2024 0 Comments

In John 10, Jesus speaks to the Pharisees about the good shepherd following the healing of a blind man in John 9. The healed man affirms faith in Jesus, resulting in his expulsion from the synagogue. Jesus criticizes the Pharisees’ spiritual blindness, contrasting true shepherds with thieves. My sheep can see this. Can you? The first in a series.

¿Soy ciego? ¿Puedo detectar a un ladrón?

August 26, 2024 0 Comments

En Juan 9 y 10, Jesús, tras sanar a un ciego y confrontar a los fariseos, les acusa de hipocresía espiritual al afirmar que pueden ver mientras rechazan la verdad. Jesús usa la parábola del buen pastor para contrastar entre el verdadero guía y los falsos líderes, cuestionando la legitimidad de los fariseos. La primera parte de ls serie.

The Good Shepherd and His Sheep

August 24, 2024 1 Comment

I’m like a sheep. I need a shepherd who has already given his life to rescue me from wolves. I need the good shepherd, Jesus, as my shepherd. Because Jesus is my shepherd, I know that if I listen to him, I will hear his voice calling me. I can be sure that I am his because I recognize his voice.

El Buen Pastor y Sus Ovejas

August 24, 2024 0 Comments

Soy como oveja. Necesito un pastor que ya ha dado su vida para rescatarme de los lobos.  Necesito al buen pastor, Jesús, como mi pastor. Debido a que Jesús es mi pastor, sé que si lo escucho, escucharé su voz llamándome. Puedo estar seguro de que soy suyo porque reconozco su voz.

¿No es una «relación» con Jesús lo que necesito?

August 22, 2024 0 Comments

¿No es una «relación» con Jesús lo que necesito? Sí, y no. La Biblia nunca dice que necesitamos solo cualquiera relación con Jesús. En cambio, se nos habla de relaciones que involucran a personas que saben quiénes son, y que reconocen la voz de Jesús y la obedecen.

Isn’t a “Relationship” with Jesus what I need?

August 22, 2024 0 Comments

Isn’t a “Relationship” with Jesus what I need? Yes, and no. The Bible never says that we need just some “relationship,” any “relationship” with Jesus. Instead, we are told of several specific relationships that involve people who know who they are, and who recognize the voice of Jesus and obey it.

The Story of Regina

August 22, 2024 0 Comments

Explanation of the letter I have written to Regina Oliveira. She was an important part of the surreal story of my life from 1984 to 1991, then she disappeared. Her love sustained us in a very difficult time. This story teaches that you can’t know how much the kindness you do today will change the world forty years from now.
