T4G is a biennial conference for pastors and church leaders. Pastors and church leaders from over 25 denominations, all 50 states, and 62 nations gather at Together for the Gospel every other year. While we have many differences on issues like baptism and spiritual gifts we are committed to stand together for the main thing-the gospel of Jesus Christ.
I love Pastor John Macarthur's preaching/ teaching. I'm in Perth Western Australia, I know alot of people watch his messages. His teaching makes sense, is alive. I learn something every time I listen to him. Bless you, keep going.
Arminians have no idea the depth of depravity, mankind is so wretched and hate GOD that apart from regeneration will never come to GOD we are in a time where the gospel is anthropocentric not theocentric, i😢used to be an arminian and had to twist scripture to justify my beliefs, thanks be to God who opened my eyes to see the truth
Enjoy your life. I wish I heard this sermon in my Twenties, i only enjoy my life now because of my life with my LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST GOD THE FATHER, GOD the SON, GOD THE HOLY SPIRT, Anything outside of that (or this) is absolutely misery for me. i LOVE YOU, LORD. THANK YOU FOR FIRST LOVING ME ❤️.
It is remarkable how this truth show how excessively sinful and dead I was. I understand more how we will praise him in heaven. I understand more about my sinful nature and how that nothing is good of my old self. God is greater than we understand. Our minds is from the dirt from a fallen Adam. I guess we can say from the dirt he rose us up from Adam.
I have thought about Calvinism and I don't see it as taught by Paul. Calvinists made God into a semi-potent God, that He can only give grace to a few but not all. If Calvinists believe God is all sovereign and all merciful, wouldn't God give grace to all men to be saved? But it seems like Calvinists are the ones who restrict God's grace to save all people. But again and again scripture tells us that God so loves the world (not limited to the elect) and whoever (includes everyone) BELIEVES IN HIM SHALL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE. There is no Limited Atonement in John 3:16 and there is no indication that God gives His grace according to whom He chose.
Yep Calvinism is more or less a heresy that has God in a matchbox Remember the absence at a time of mercy and grace does not quantify an absence of love that's where they all go wrong. One only has to read the story and the history of Israel. 19:01
Glad that the Bible has something to say about this.... All we have to do is believe, did you hear John MacArthur observations, we have no hope. Only he has hope...😵😵😵😵
James betram you simply dont get it. You are sarcastic 2:08 saying only a few are saved by God and He sentence tge rest to hell. Many are saved very many but not all. Matt 20: 28.
@Eternitypraise Lamentations 3:31-33 For no one is cast off by the Lord forever.(to portray some will be, is clearly deemed heresy with one verse already, and the rest of the verse here explains why)Though he brings grief, he will show compassion, so great is his unfailing LOVE. For he does not willingly bring affliction or grief to anyone. 1 Timothy 4:10 That is why we labour and strive, because we have put our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of ALL people, and especially of those who believe. 1 Corinthians 15:22For just as in Adam ALL die, so also in Christ ALL will be made alive. Just as the result of one trespass was condemnation of ALL men, so also the result of one act of righteousness was justification that brings life for ALL men.” (Rom. 5:18) Jesus is “able even to subdue ALL things to Himself.” (Phil. 3:21) Jesus came “that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times he might gather together in one ALL things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth in Him. In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works ALL things according to the counsel of HIS WILL.” (Eph. 1:10, 11) The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering towards us, not willing that ANY should perish, but that ALL should come to repentance.” (2 Peter 3:9) ALL shall know the Lord, from the least of them to the greatest of them.” (Heb. 8:11) Mercy shall triumph over judgment.” (James 2:13) EVERY creature which is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and such as are in the sea, and ALL that are in them, I heard saying: blessing and honor and glory and power be to Him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, forever and ever.” (Rev. 5:13) Through the greatness of your power your enemies shall submit themselves to you. ALL the earth shall worship You and sing praises to you.” (Ps. 66:3, 4) For I will NOT contend forever, Nor will I always be angry; For the spirit would fail before Me, And the souls which I have made.” (Isaiah 57:16) There is no God besides Me, a just God and Savior; there is none besides Me. Look to Me and be saved, ALL you ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other. I have sworn by Myself; the word has gone out of My mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, that to me EVERY knee shall bow, EVERY tongue shall take an oath. He shall say, surely in the Lord I have righteousness and strength. To Him men shall come, and ALL shall be ashamed who are incensed against Him. In the Lord all the descendants of Israel shall be justifed and shall glory.” (Isaiah 45:21-25) Philippians 2: 9-11 9Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place and gave Him the name above all names, 10that at the name of Jesus EVERY knee should bow, In heaven and on earth and under the earth,11and EVERY tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, To the glory of God the Father. In this mountain the Lord of Hosts will make for ALL people a feast of choice pieces, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of well-refined wines on the lees. And he shall destroy on this mountain the surface of the covering cast over ALL nations. He will swallow up death forever, and the Lord will wipe away tears from ALL faces.” (Isaiah 25:6-8) Of those who crucified Him (which is all of us) Jesus declared: “Father forgive them; for they know not what they do.” (Luke 23:34) But God would not take away a life; He would devise plans so that the one banished from Him DOES NOT remain banished.” 2 Sam. 14:14 Jesus says: “I pass judgment on no one.” [John 8:15] 4But when the kindness of God our Savior and His love for mankind appeared, 5He saved us(past tense), not by the righteous deeds we had done, but according to HIS MERCY, through the washing of new birth. (Born again)Titus3: 3-6 For God has consigned ALL to disobedience, that he may have mercy on ALL. Romans 11:32 19 For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, 20 and through him to reconcile to himself ALL things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through HIS BLOOD, shed on the cross. Colossians 1:19-20 Ephesians 1:9-10 9 making known[a] to us the mystery of HIS WILL, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ 10 as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite All things in him, things in heaven and things on earth. 3:08
How about Luke 18? Now behold, one came and said to Him, “Good Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life?” The young man said to Him, “All these things I have kept from my youth. What do I still lack?”... Jesus did not say no way you did... According to Paul, you're totally depraved and incapable of attaining eternal life as mentioned in Luke 10... To a similar question where Jesus says “You have answered rightly; do this and you will live.” Luke 10:28 I mean seriously how can anyone love God with all their heart without God's help... It's never an option to do God's will without God's help. 🙄
Interesting how you refuse to mention what church existed at the Council of Ephesus 🤔... You may have to mention the Catholic Orthodox Church 😅 apostolic churches who received what Paul (among others) passed down in word and in epistle...
Understand the will. It is God given at birth. This nullifies inability. When we choose to follow God, we are Not contributing anything to our salvation unless you wish to think that you originated your own will. No, you used your God given will the way it was intended
Fools and sinners hate this doctrine as its true. If you hate it then its true So pray that God gives you a chance for repentance. As you will be blind until then. ASK FOR IT. be broken by your wretched sinner selves and become a slave to righteousness and to Jesus Christ.Humanity are Wretched fallen sinner selves. Wake up. i was once in your shoes. Dont think for one moment that i am free from sin for it indwells me. A day of judgment grows near. You wil be shaken to your bones and it may be too late for repentance. You would wish that you werent born as on this day, i assure you, you will try save your planet that you worship during the tribulation you clay pots, so am i but i am justified and in the process of being sanctified. So shame on you for not asking for a chance of repentance. So Ask. Thats all you can do.
This guy is dry as last months painting. No encouragement or lifting up of Christ . I could handle a half hour of him. He must have just got out of bed . I don't care how long he has been " preaching ". I understand now . He is a calvinst
This FALSE calvinist preacher gives me NO. reason to believe him . He seems to RANT on with no evidence of having VICTORY in Christ . I can't believe that I listened to his calvinistic religion as long I did . And his teachings are religious from. Augustine, but not biblical . Augistine was a religious gnostic along with Martin Luthe. and John Knox . ALL man led. RELIGIONS . They are mixed with just enough bible to cause belief in their books
True it's a very sad case of the likes of him and the late RC Sproul. As two of the main preachers of Calvinism they both seem quite incapable of being accepted and loved for some reason. It's like they intellectualize the scripture to be exclusive because of unforgiveness and need to get someone back for some reason and therefore are not seemingly capable of believing love to be impartial. It's sad but disturbing that in their preaching love and the true purpose of the cross barely get a mention😮. I don't judge him but I can't agree with what he preaches and I think it's quite restricting and not healthy for anyone who listens to him as his gospel is not the gospel of Christ.
Many calvinists here are being DECEIVED like I was for 10 years by mcarthur. He can't answer if any of his own family members are chosen . Including his own wife . In fact he has doubts about himself from time to time .
I have assurance because I know my salvation is of God and not by my works or will. I know I am elect because I confess with my mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in my heart that God raised Him from the dead.
Mcarther has been. FOOLED all his life . Especially on calvinism . He had me fooled for 10 years until the. Bible and several. FORMER " calvinists " opened my eyes and ears . Never again mcarthur
A most important verse 2Cor.4:6. He shinned the knowledge of Christ in my heart- dying for me, personally, on the cross. My response was,"Thank you,Lord".
Do not be fooled. This man is not born again. He is only regurgitating puritan literature. There is no conviction in what he says , Although his words are basically true. Big difference.
I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy. And I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. So then it is not of him that willeth,nor of him that runneth,but of God that sheweth mercy.Rom.9 :15,16
@@williammorewood1625 no I agree with that part of the tulip, But John's theology to conclude that His mercy is only for a limited elect is most ridiculous, you would have to negate so much scripture and the total character of God to ever come up with such a blasphemous idea. Sadly John MacArthur has not a limited atonement; But rather a limited love... Heresy
@@Tommythecat007 Yes it is error because when God said i will have mercy upon whom i will have mercy it doesnt mean you dont have a choice. just because God knows who will choose him doesnt mean he made the choice for you. that would make him a rapist and would turn the love of God into a sham! A farce! God's throne is in eternity so he sees all from start to finish and already knows but WE dont and WE choose like you said nulls SO many scriptures! Like two cannot wlak together unless they are in agreement and I would not that even the wicked should perish but that they should repent. Without choice you cannot have love and they ALSO dont understand that the CROSS gave us the choice and THAT is why it is not of ourselves because he did it so that we have a choice! I Choose HIM! Because he died for me and i was his enemy when he did ! my sins are my own fault and they are MANY yet he forgave them ALL! When people like this guy here discourage me and then I give up and fall into sin and lap up my grace and dignity Christ comes for me again and tells me he loves me and I am not alone and to hold on tighter! men like this will ALWAYS try to be God and sit in judgement upon you I made a littel ditty so when i hear them I imagine they are singing it it goes "Jesus loves me not you he he ha ha hoo hoo hoo" and I just laugh at them! They deny the riches of his love and mercy!
It's so sad because people go by the tradition of the church they were raised in. If a person would actually get their Bible out and read what it says they would see that everything he said is backed up by scripture. This man is not coming up with this stuff on his own.
Ever notice how Calvinists often spend more time quoting each other then quoting the Bible? Even when they do they quote the same few tired proof texts.
John 6:45 It is written in the Prophets: "They will all be taught by God.' Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from Him comes to Me. My encouragement is that in these words of our Lord, there is hope.
Are we not all brothers and sisters in christ why such hateful comment's. Your not going to agree with everyone but its not like hes not a true man of God. Why so much hate? I just dont get it. You you dont have love you have nothing
Fair enough comment, its just that John doesn't preach love at all and it's not healthy for the people listening. Anyone who preaches any exclusive gospel like this, negates the cross and love, and is blinded into nothing short of a cult. I believe John is saved and loved by God like everyone else but it's just sad he doesn't or cannot believe this for his fellow man.
I don't think John has it right, too many scpritures contradict what he says. It seems a very weak sermon with a few cherry picked verses which can't really be substantiated as to Johns interpretation in the light of other scripture He doesn't make much sense to me.... I mean what does he think happened at the cross? Each to his own I guess
Thank you Lord for all that you are using your servant (Pastor John MacArthur) to do in the life of your people in this end time that the TRUTH is perished from the mouth of so many servants of God!
Sir, you suppose that you understand all things perfectly. You do preach strong sermons challenging faith, repentance, and the New Birth. However, if all are saved by the predetermined will of God., then your challenges are senseless. If man is as a created robot, he cannot willingly serve or love God. The idea of creating one from the foundation of the world to ungodly life and destiny in Hell is demonic. Indeed, God initiated our salvation. He knocks at the heart of every man, but He challenges man to open the door. I hope you may come to Biblical truth. You are very misleading in your opinions.
True ...anyone who preaches an exclusive gospel is misleading, after all the scriptures explicitly state multiple times that every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess Jesus is Lord to the glory of God. Love is not that hard understand surely 0:05

Its not the audible but effectual calling. Predestination by unconditional election. Not the modern-day evangelical charismatic self-determination salvationalist Arminianist way conditional election.
@brianbrodie8331 Love? What do you know about love. According to God you're dead in sins and trespasses and are at enmity with God. That's what God says.
@@HonrbleMentionLook even the atheist knows what love is capable and not capable of. Its sin that has bound men in enmity with God. Read the scriptures man was made in the image of God. This is not rocket science
