John MacArthur Lordship Salvation 

John MacArthur teaches the Gospel of John Calvin, you have no choice, God either picked you for heaven or hell, you have no faith only fate. You are not able to choose Jesus Christ for salvation. Calvinism is a Gnostic Pagan doctrine compatible with Catholicism but in opposition to biblical Christianity.

I can answer that question in just a few words. “How can I have assurance of my salvation?” I believed the Gospel! And he said I will NEVER perish but have ETERNAL LIFE!

My assurance is in the Blood of Jesus not in myself but in Jesus Alone.

Galatians 2 , verse 16 . Ephesians 2 , verses 8 and 9 . Roman's 3 , verse 27 and 28 . Roman's 4 , verses 3 to 5 . John 6 , verses 37 to 40 . Roman's 3 , verse 29 ( the work God requires ) . Christ wants us to trust in His finished work on the Cross . He said this finished the sacrifice once for all who will trust Him . He does not recognise the notion of faith in Him plus works . The requirement for salvation is to believe ( trust ) in Him and His shed blood - a completed sacrifice for our sins . Splitting the ' bill' is not required ! Phillipians 1 v.6 is also worth noting .

Modern evangelicalism conflates law and gospel.

People always want to go back to their dead works, instead of leaning on the promises of Jesus Christ!

This man is good man of God

Grace+faith = salvation and works of righteousness.

I feel sorry for all those who listen and believe JMCA. Read and believe the word of God.

"Anyone who says, 'I know Him,' but does not do as He commands is a liar and the truth is not in him."

When you tell GOD you place all your Faith, from all your Heart (all of you,) in the Death, Shed BLOOD, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ to pay for all your sins in full, then GOD will Seal (Holy Baptize you) your Soul to him and give you Eternal Life forever. 1st Corinthians 15:1-4 is the The Gospel of Jesus Christ for us today and verse three refers to the Shed BLOOD of Jesus Christ. Sad to see so many of these wolves deceiving the sheep with their false gospels.

If we are not saved by Christ alone then we are trying to earn it by keeping the law of moses..

NOTHING BUT THE BLOOD OF JESUS!!! ❤️✝️❤️

We are saved by faith and not works, however you are not saved unless your faith works.

Do we REALLY want the Baptism of the Holy Ghost? If so, we need to obey the same GOSPEL that the early disciples obeyed and preached. Todays gospel message has been so watered down that it instructs us to only "believe" and then we are "good to go". But there is no POWER in this and it is NOT the gospel that the disciples of Christ obeyed in the book of Acts. "Believing" is the gateway to "Obeying" the TRUE GOSPEL. However, believing in and of itself is not a complete response to the entire GOSPEL. Jesus said "BELIEVE", yes that is true. But Jesus further expounds "BELIEVE AS THE SCRIPTURES CONTINUE TO SAY" (John 7:38) Jesus instructed His disciples to baptize. He didn't speak this directive just to give them "busy" work. In the scriptures below, we see example after example after example of what the listeners DID after Hearing and Obeying the True Gospel. There is a pattern here. Mat 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Why mention baptism in the scripture if baptism is irrelevant? Because it is relevant. Mar 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Again, The disciples of Jesus Christ baptized. Joh 4:1 When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John, Joh 4:2 (Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,) Peter is preaching the Gospel. He doesn't say, "for the few of you that feel the need to get baptized, go for it!" No, he says, "Be baptized every one of you..." Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Those that gladly received the Gospel that Peter preached got baptized. Those who rejected the Gospel he preached, didn't. Acts 2:41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: Philip is preaching the same Gospel. As a result, the people believed and as a result of that belief, they got baptized. Acts 8:12 But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. Simon heard the Gospel. He believed and as a result, he got baptized. Acts 8:13 Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done. Philip preached the Gospel to a eunuch. As a result, the eunuch does not say, "I believe in Jesus" and then go on his way. Instead, he wants to get baptized as soon as possible. Acts 8:36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? Act 8:38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. Peter preaches the Gospel. As the people heard, the Holy Ghost descended and filled them. Afterwards, Peter instructs them to get baptized in the Name of The Lord and is alluding that no man should get in the way of that process. He did not say, "It's optional" (Acts 10:37-48) Acts 10:47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? Paul and Silas preach to the keeper of the prison. Paul says, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ." but he does not stop there. He preached the word of the Lord and as a result, the keeper of the prison and his household were baptized. Acts 16:30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? 31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. 32 And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house. 33 And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway. Act 10:48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days. Another instance where people heard the Gospel. They believed and as a result, those who believed were baptized. Act 18:8 And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized. In Acts 19:1-9, Paul is asking a "believer" if they have received the baptism of the Holy Ghost since they believed. They haven't heard about the Holy Ghost. So what does Paul start asking about? He asked how they were baptized. They had been baptized according to John's baptism of repentance. After Paul explained the gospel more clearly (since Jesus had since risen), they got Re-baptized. But this time, it was in the Name of The Lord. Because they repented and got baptized in the name of the Lord, God was obligated to baptize them in the Holy Ghost (Acts 2:38), because it is His Promise (Acts 2:39) If you read further in Acts 19:8-9, you will see that certain people BELIEVED NOT and started speaking evil of the gospel that Paul preached. 19 And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples, 2 He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost. 3 And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism. 4 Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus. 5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied. 7 And all the men were about twelve. 8 And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God. 9 But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus. The response to the TRUE GOSPEL includes: 1) Repentance (acknowledging and turning away from sin) and 2) Baptism in the Name of Jesus Christ and as a result, that individual shall 3) Receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Jesus tells what happens when we "BELIEVE AS THE SCRIPTURES CONTINUE TO SAY" John 7:38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. John 7:39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given ; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.) Which Gospel of Jesus Christ will you believe? The one that the early disciples of Jesus preached as documented in the Bible? Or the modified/simplified/modernized version that would be considered "Another gospel" by Paul. Paul says the person that preaches "Another gospel" is accursed. Galatians 1:8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed. Galatians 1:9 As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed. Do yourself a HUGE favor. Don't take reckless chances with your salvation. OBEY the TRUE GOSPEL. Acts 2:38 clearly tells us that if we will 1) repent of our sin and 2) get water baptized in the name of Jesus, 3) then God is OBLIGATED to baptize us with the Holy Spirit. Why? Because Acts 2:39 goes on to say that this promise is for every single one of us! So, the question is simple: Have we done steps 1 and 2 so that God can perform step 3 in our lives?

I dont get why people refuse to understand Predestination. God knows all sees end from beginning and knows what choices we will make. We don't. So, the unsaved don't know what their final destination is, even tho they think they do. They could still repent. The NT is clear that God calls those whom he wills, and those whom he wills are conformed, same thing it says in the OT. So why people have to get so upset about this, I don't know. Nothing wrong with anything JMac says here..

Guys. John 3:16 ❤️✝️❤️

When Jesus said he wasng praying for the world but those the father gave him how do you square that? Are you saying that YOU ultimately played the biggest part of your salvation? Calling someone prideful because they believe in predestination (when its biblical) and in the same sentence saying you had some extra faith to turn to God (which is totally unbiblical) is very scary.

You can't address an issue like this at a 30 second video and I don't know who's more nuts John MacArthur or you for even trying

Faith is a gift from God so we don't get any credit for salvation. Oh and Jesus only died for the elect

I wonder how someone this late in age isn’t scared to preach damnable heresy.

Salvation is very easy just believe in Jesus and trust in his perfect blood shed on the cross to forgive our sins past presente and future impossíble to lose salvation sealed and batized into the body of Crist in the moment we believe in Jesus

John MacArthur is the premier expositor in the English language today of the Bible. I shudder to think of all the beguiled people thinking that there is some sort of salvation without the “Lordship” of Christ. As if you’re saved now, and someday you might “make Christ Lord” of your life. Nonsense.

Ephesians2 : 8 For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9not by works, so that no one can boast. 10For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance as our way of life. Romans8 : 6 The mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace, 7because the mind of the flesh is hostile to God: It does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. 8Those controlled by the flesh cannot please God. Repentance and belief is a Gift from God.

There is no such thing as a "saving faith" or a "non-saving faith". You either put all your faith on Christ or you don't. John mcarthur doesn't as he looks to his works to justify himself.

Obeyance does not determine ones standing with God. Believing on Jesus does. If you choose not to believe on the Son then you shall not see life.

Where does faith in Christ come from? It doesn't come from ourselves. We are naturally haters of God. God needs to intervene to make our salvation possible. If left to our own devices we would all be in hell.

MacArthur also denies that Mary is the mother of God and that Christ’s blood on the cross was God’s blood. He’s a Nestorian heretic.

PEOPLE THIS IS CALVINISM...If you believe Jesus DID NOT DIE for everyone, then John here is your man. Christ's Pastor

Yes scripture states that saving faith is a gift from God but people want to think they can use their free will to save themselves

Ephesians 2:8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is NOT OF YOURSELF, it is the GIFT of God- John is wrong on many issues, but he's absolutely correct here.

.No, you are wrong. Read the Bible, God will give you revelation, which you definitely need.

Hmmmm?

John 15 :16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you; before you were born, I sanctified you; and I ordained you a prophet to the nations. predeterminism and fatalism is not a pagan doctrine at all you're wrong

Yes Romans 3: 22-25

Jmac says our assurance comes from all introspective things as a pharisee. Unbelievable a supposed Christian teacher, when asked where we get assurance, doesn't mention Christs sacrifice and God's promises to believers?????

This video is a joke. You don’t even understand what the Scriptures teach, nor what MacArthur teaches. You accuse falsely because you do not know the truth. MacArthur teaches that we are saved through faith alone, but saving faith is evidenced by good works, which are not salvific.

You need to study "Calvinism", it's all through the New Testament. Romans 8:29-30 is just one verse that says it. It sounds like you will not except God's sovereignty.

Thank you Heavenly Father

Faith without works is dead! Period!

I hope the full video is played because many misunderstood the messages in this short clip and in some other clips of him. The gift..is Christ, if we reject the gift, we also reject eternal life. Faith is given to a heart that is open to God. Faith produces good work. Salvation is not gained by good work. It is faith in Christ. There are good works that are produced out of ill motives, even by pride. The Holy Spirit indwels the believer hence he, she is able to do good works. It is the evidence of one's faith. But is never a contribution to what Christ has done for one's salvation. Christ death was the perfect sacrifice. He did not acomplish 80% such that you"ll have to achieve 20%, to get 100%. Dont ever think that what he did was lacking. He was offering you 100%. Accept or reject him?

When will JM understand 2 Cor. 5:19? Christ already died for the sins of all. One doesn’t need forgiveness, one needs Christ’s perfection given as a gift. Christ’s very own perfection is given when one believes that all sin has been imputed unto Christ. Paul’s revelation of this is known as the message of reconciliation which is the message of salvation for today. So simple.

He also teaches we have no power over Satan only the disciples did. How come when I rebuke Satan in Jesus name people leave? 😂 I see it in action that people have to go with their satanic agendas.

John MacArthur isn’t reformed or Calvinist. He is correct on predestination but does slide into that works righteousness lordship stuff. But yes, faith absolutely is a gift and God is the complete author of salvation and no Jesus didn’t die to make salvation “possible”.

It's not a works gospel. If you think that, you may need to read the book of James a few times. Faith is EVIDENCED by works. If there is no fruit, no works of any kind, then you don't have genuine faith; it's dead faith. It's a simple concept. Why is it so difficult to understand?

What is the masonic symbol doing there?

Yeah, no thank you calvinism 😅

What he means is God gives us mercy to draw us to his son. Not everyone belongs to God. God knows whom he gave to his son, Jesus said so himself "I know whom my father have given me, and no one can pluck them from my hand ” It's ALL Gods doing, God knows everything and so he can't let everything just free style. When he sent souls to be conceived. He already knew who would come back home to him in heaven. Anyway..we are in the last days and many false prophets who think they know everything like God will plant bad seeds in people until God shows blood on their own hands for leading others astray. This is why reading and praying before you start your day is important..armor needs to be on daily. Don't be deceived and allow someone to make you hate Gods children. God will judge bad fruit. Any tree that produces bad fruit will be cut down and tossed into the fire.

what is the gospel?

So your denying the fact that predestination is a thing in the Bible? I also understand that free will is too, but Calvinism and the Arminian view are both incorrect as predestination and free will are both present

John Mcsatan

might want to read some of Wesleyan theology. Asbury college has videos on this.

0 mention of Jesus, this is another gospel

Jesus died for the sins of the entire world. Salvation is available to everyone. Common sense if God had chosen some to be saved there's no need for the great commission they're going to be saved regardless if you preach or not. But since salvation is available for all we're to offer it to all. Come take the water of life freely anyone who athirst.

Ok leave the square and compass off next time Mr conspiracy theorist. Masons are not calvinists

You don't obey the Lord. You obey a book. If you don't have that book, like never seen the book ever, what do you have then?

Matt 7:21-23 is for men whose hearts have not been changed by the power of God and are not being conformed into the image of Christ by the Spirit. John MacCarthur is an elect son of God. The gnostics are Self Determinist who worship their "own" knowledge about Jesus Christ but never stop loving their Self and their sin.

Why Do you Judge you Brothers?matt 7: 1-6 Amen

Do you think "free will" is a good thing? Free will is ungodly will. Satan had free will. Free will is the author of confusion. Free will always leads to death. Free will never leads to saving faith, because we are dead in trespasses and sins until God quickens our heart to believe the Gospel, the power of God unto salvation. See 2 Peter 3:16 but stick to the milk of the Gospel and you will be fine.

Gnostic fatalism, what a load of crap!!! Hahahaha. Do you know what Gnosticism is?

I choose to believe John M ……not you.

I despise his guts.

He does not teach the gospel of John Calvin. The Bible is clear. God chose us before the foundation of the world. Paul wrote that. Salvation is offered to anyone who will believe. It's that simple. It should not matter to anyone really, whether you're chosen or not. All that matters is that you put your faith in Christ. Forget about the doctrine of election if you don't have the stomach for that truth.

Assurance is trusting the promises of God, faith cometh by hearing and hearing the word of God the gospel. John Macarthur is a heretic.

Hey Zuis Christos. Greek Jesus. Christ. Pagan

Adhering to the "Saved by grace alone" or "Just believe" doctrine while throwing all the other verses out the window is a pretty gutsy move. That would tell me that the apostle Paul was going around, preaching a gospel that goes well beyond "faith alone". Paul said in Galatians 1:9 that everyone is accursed that preaches another gospel than the one he preached. Taking Acts 16:30-31 as the entirety of the bible would tell us that no repentance of any kind is needed for salvation. Acts 16:30 Then he brought them out and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” 31 And they said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.” In addition, only the person asking what he needed to do to be saved would need to "believe". This infers that the rest of his household could be complete atheists, yet would be saved. Are we having a contest to cherry-pick scripture and water down the Word of God until it has absolutely no effect? If so, the entire population of earth should read ONLY Titus 3:5 and see that Jesus already saved us by His mercy and we don't have to do a single thing. Titus 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost If we take this one verse literally, without reading any other in the bible, one could come to the conclusion that: 1) They don't even need to "Believe in Jesus" to be saved, because this verse doesn't say anything about belief. 2) They don't need to hear the Word 3) They don't need to read the Word 3) No relationship with God/Jesus/Holy Spirit is needed. 4) Hell is completely empty because everyone already got saved by His "mercy". 5) Sin as much as you want to, because repentance (to turn away from sin) wasn't specifically mentioned in this verse, either. If this is the case, then ask yourself: Why is there even a judgment of man (Revelation 20:12-15)? Why is there a Gospel? And why is there even a Bible? It's as if one has come to the point of saying, "Sorry Jesus, but I'm not going to obey Your Gospel because, after all, obeying is a work." If one is going to take the "minimalist" doctrine to the nth degree, then you should end up with something similar to the above. Take this approach and you will eventually find out that God is NOT playing around. He will not be mocked and ignored. In flaming fire, God will take vengeance on those that do not know Him and do not obey the Gospel of Jesus Christ (2 Thessalonians 1:8-9). The Word of God commands us to make our calling and election "sure", not "minimal" (2 Peter 1:10). It also instructs us to study the word to show ourselves approved (2 Timothy 2:15). The best policy is to read the ENTIRE Word of God for yourself to find out what the TRUE DOCTRINE and TRUE GOSPEL really is and then OBEY that gospel. If you are genuinely seeking God on this topic, He will most definitely fill in the blanks on any questions you have. All you have to do is ask Him in sincerity. When the early disciples preached the Gospel, what did the hearers of that Gospel actually do? 1) They repented. 2) They got baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of their sins. 3) They received the Promise of the Father - The baptism of the Holy Ghost. If a person truly BELIEVES the gospel, they will OBEY the gospel. In addition, once that individual experiences the grip of sin unravelling and being removed from their life and the POWER of the Holy Ghost living inside, they will NOT be ashamed of that gospel, even as Paul declared in Romans 1:16. God provided the plan of salvation for all men, women and children when He was under no obligation to do so. This is the very demonstration of His grace and mercy. Arguing against Lordship salvation is not the issue here. The real problem is that one can argue so hard against works that they take it over the edge and completely IGNORE and therefore REJECT the instructions given from the Gospel, stating that those are works as well. THIS IS DECEPTION OF THE HIGHEST ORDER. Do yourself a HUGE favor. Don't take reckless chances with your salvation. OBEY the TRUE GOSPEL.

You cannot understand the things of God because you are one who is perishing. The natural man cannot understand the things of God! so you insult an awesome man of God

Wow , no Holy spirit seal or being born again.

Right along with his; “We lose down here, get that, we lose” - jmac rapture dispensationalist heresy
