Though I am very appreciative of the many books I have read and accumulated over many decades. But when they are no longer in use, and become mere dust collectors, and/or are doctrinally indifferent, then it’s time to redistribute another box of books, which makes more room for new books (or more solid old books).
I knew it was only a matter of time that someone would publicly expose this. Last year I warned several close to me, but they refused to listen, scoffed, and one even mocked me. Christians must flee from pastoral idolatry. This Roy’s Report can be seen via this link here or below. . UPDATE 02/09/21:
I agree with James White here, as MacArthur’s eschatology comes from his #dispensationalism. It was defeatist, to say the least. I don’t “lose” here, and I have nothing to complain about, and everything to be thankful for. “To die is to gain” (Phil 1:21). It’s a win-win! A side note: As I’ve said before. I
These last several days have been a difficult time for my wife, myself, our children, and many family members. Our 23-month-old grandson Lake was admitted into a hospital and was listed in grave condition. Sadly, today Lake succumbed to his medical distress. I am not writing this to invite you to my pity party. Instead,
During the 2008 Presidential election, I saw an increase of well-known Pastors crossing the line from pulpit duty into the arena of politics, including giving endorsements. But to make matters worse, some made either derogatory or untrue remarks about Christians that might vote differently than them. In 2008 Pastor Jack Hibbs endorsed the far ‘left
DISCLAIMER: I do not share all doctrinal views of every person mentioned here. I am a member of a local Church that embrace the five fundamental Doctrines of Grace that practice a Regulative Principle of Worship, Covenant Theology, and a full-strict subscription to the 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith. The Truth Matters conference was a
MacArthur is spot-on, and he certainly has been proven to consistently demonstrate courage throughout the many decades. Understandably this video is only an excerpt. So what MacArthur did not mention (or this video did not permit the time for), is that courage must go way beyond the pulpit. It is the congregants that are called
In this interview Dr. John MacArthur said many things that were quote worthy, and I agree with them; but I only typed out two. When Shapiro asked MacArthur to explain “slavery” in the Bible, MacArthur accurately explains what Biblical slavery is, and what it is not. As my own Facebook profiles describes me as a
Though Christians should be engaged in our culture, as we love our neighbor, but not without being ‘salt and light.’ Apparently many don’t understand what being ‘salt and light’ truly is (according to the Scriptures). Furthermore, Christians are commanded to go out and preach (or share) the glorious Gospel, that is the paramount remedy. Having
May I add my own personal thoughts. The Doctrine of Sanctification is very important to me. I pray daily for more sanctification, and I also pray the same for specific Christians. Though salvation is monergistic, sanctification is synergistic (Holy Spirit willing). Though a Christian is saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone,
I often use the ESV translation. But like all other translations, it has its strengths and weaknesses. For example in 1 Timothy chapter 3, the Apostle Paul laid down the standard for the ‘minimal qualifications’ to be an Elder or Pastor. In verse 3a it says that an Elder or Pastor, must not be a
This is serious business, it’s no time to play, and it’s time to go to war. The preachers are Paul Washer, John MacArthur, and mostly Carter Colon. No matter how solid our doctrines may be in our churches. If we have not zeal, passion, and boldness. If we’re not the salt and light on the
