John MacArthur | The Ben Shapiro Show Sunday Special Ep. 29 

Indeed!

Pinyin Xing completely agree with your statement

Pinyin Xing You reading this, Sean Hannity?

Makes me respect him even more.

I’ve been watching Shapiro’s videos and it looks like he has a lot of respect with people that really lives their Christianity , he was quiet with Ravi Zacarías and Dr William Lane Craig too!!..

I was overcome with tears. The Holy Spirit was truly moving. Isaiah 53 pulled it together. The Old Testament confirming the New Testament and written by the inspiration of God Who is outside of time. The Holy Spirit was working..Ben kept it professional but he's too smart to not see how the puzzle pieces fit together. Praying for Ben..he's amazing. Grateful to John..that was a brilliant defense of the Christian perspective.

Thank the Lord

Amen to that Brother

Amen

In the Lord's time. I do think it will happen

Great reference!

God be with Ben. Holy Spirit strike his heart!

This pastor does not believe in recruiting. He is a Calvinist to the max

bc petrakos It’s funny to think what Calvinism really is vs what Arminians think it is. I prefer to think according to what I see in Scripture. Arminians and Calvinists alike have the responsibility to preach the Gospel. Calvinists do it all the time, but they don’t do altar calls, because it’s not a biblical practice.

Jeffrey Stern You just don’t get what those concepts mean...you yourself fall under one of those categories...you just don’t know it: 1. Can you respond to the gospel on your own? That’s Arminianism. 2. Does God give you life so that you can respond to the gospel? That’s Calvinism...etc.

Amen. I just prayed that God would allow the scales to fall off Ben's eyes and that he would see the glory of Christ crucified! 🙏✝️

@Heath Wells yes and amen! I'm praying for the same thing.

My understanding of Shapiro is that he suffers from the classic Jewish pride of old. He relies on his intellect, but faith (the foundation of the gospel) isn't an intellectual thing, it's a moral one. My prayer is Paul's written in Romans 10:1-3

Me too T.T btw Paul was from the tribe of Benjamin.. yeah.. totally irrelevant lol

Me too because Jesus Christ set me free

And his family too.

He rejects the Savior. That's his problem

O C that’s a real Christian value lol

At least Shapiro has Macarthur and another apologist on a seperate episode ,both on his show. ISAIAH 53:5. MICAH 5:2. ISSIAH 7:14. IDAIAH 9:6. GENESIS 3:15

God knows more than you do about Ben Shapiro. Praying to a god that is all powerful and knows all thing is a wasted prayer.

Nice thought, but knowledge saves nothing in the end.

He already has the knowledge. He just needs to make the choice based on his Faith.

God thanks you for informing Him about Ben.

@@blazemordly9746 we are saved by the Grace of God , through Jesus Christ

Jason W me too as the rapture is right around the corner. He would be an asset in Heaven if he believed in the Gospel. Could you imagine if he changed what he believed and how he can speak about why he stayed an Orthodox Jew all those years?

ANTHONY ILY

Neither of them respect Trump. They get no respect

@@willybilly9685 What we need to do is respect Jesus Christ

Two years now!

@@ashleyjuliet100 ily2

Pastor MacArthur is too passive. Ben asks him if there would ever be a time when Christians would defend themselves from the government, using the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany as examples. MacArthur basically says Christians don’t believe in self defense no matter what the circumstance. “I don’t think there’s ever a time where you would be justified in killing the people in power...we would rather suffer.” (See around the 19-20 minute mark). Christians should defend themselves if their lives are on the line. Read Luke 22:36. I’m not saying it should be tit for tat, an eye for an eye, that you should get revenge, but if your government is knocking on your door ready to kill you as what happened within Nazi Germany, it’s wrong not to try and defend yourself lest you’re promoting the spread of evil.

My dear brother, according to your opinion, why did Jesus say them to get swords?

@@natanaildanialichamaki5144 To defend themselves

This is all delusional nonsense! There are actual rationale reasons not to do certain things. Actually we can answering EVERY moral question rationally. We don’t need religion.

I was thinking the same thing! I'd love to see Ben be saved!! He'd make an amazing testimony and Believer!

I truly LOVE this brother.

Where is it?

Wish I could see him in person one day, a blessing from God almighty

​@@CynderelleeGrace Community Church 13248 Roscoe Blvd. Sun Valley, CA 91352

Me too. I almost cry

That was emotional. Bens response was.. Upsetting to say the least. We need another hour strictly on theology and why Ben needs to accept Christ.

Kate Wok I know, Gospel from the Old Testament

Cameron James keep praying Ben gets Saved

@@jamescameron797 Accept christ for what? Do christians even know what christ means? Ben's never going to "accept" christ. There's no command in Torah for Jews to accept any christ in the sense that the New Testament teaches. It's all based on fallacies based on Roman-greco thought. Read my book for free. Book.leavingjesus.net

Yes! Jesus is God's perfect Lamb (sacrifice) for the forgiveness of our sins.

Isn't it strange that God, in the end, STOPPED that very sacrifice, and also severly rebuked Yiftachnwhen he sacrificed his daughter!

Amen

A trllions like!🥳💛🙏

It's about to get harder to find.

Hear what? Utter delusional thinking?

@@restinbeast1982 hahaa fool

@@restinbeast1982 Why do you say this?

18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.” 20 Where is the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? 21 For since in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom did not know Him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. 22 Jews demand signs and Greeks search for wisdom, 23 but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, 24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man’s strength. •_•_• 26 Brothers, consider the time of your calling: Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were powerful; not many were of noble birth. 27 But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. 28 He chose the lowly and despised things of the world, and the things that are not, to nullify the things that are, 29 so that no one may boast in His presence. 30 It is because of Him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God: our righteousness, holiness, and redemption. 31 Therefore, as it is written: “Let him who boasts boast in the Lord.” • AMEN • Boast in the Lord, Jesus.

Luis Sarduy no he’s not on fire.. he said that Christianity and Judaism are morally the same. That’s baloney.

Bennett McCoy I agree

Ben doesn’t know Jesus? But Jesus was a Jew. I’m confused 🤔

@@grace4976 Most of the people praying for someone else's salvation are confused too. They spend little time on themselves and too much time judging others.

John MacArthur teaches that every believer is NOT assured a home in Heaven. According to MacArthur, one's salvation is DEPENDENT upon the life he or she lives. This is the damnable heresy of Lordship Salvation!

Gilbert D Wait, but if don’t have good works are we really receiving the saving grace of Jesus? A tree is known by its fruits.

@Alex Gorges - "...but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit." In Romans 11:6 we are told, "And if by works, then is it no more grace, otherwise work is no more work."

Gilbert D Hmm ok. Let’s unpack this. Do you ever feel like living your faith is hard work? Is there grace in these moments?

@Alex Gorges - Salvation is not doing your best, it is having Christ's best put to your account through receiving Him by faith. God will not save anyone who is trying to be saved, He will only save those who are trusting to be saved. We are saved simply by BELIEVING the Gospel. 1st Corinthians 15:1-4 defines the “Gospel” as the DEATH, BURIAL, and RESURRECTION of Jesus. This includes the blood of Christ (Romans 5:9).

Not really. Paul was called in a very unique way.

Ya Boi Hatalski i think he means that Paul was a very intelligent Jew

AMEN 🙏🙏🙏

@Bennett McCoy u obviously did not understand the part from 26:40 min. Although I do like Mike Knowles, as a true Bible believing Christian, I can't identify with the teaching of Roman Catholic Church. Please read Ephesians 2:8-9, go through the Bible, listen to some of John MacArthur's teaching at Grace to you.com. Search for the truth and truth will set u free.

@Bennett McCoy Thanks. I might look into it. However, let me just tell u that I know what does the Rome teach, our family was once a part of it. Then we heard the message of salvation through grace alone through faith alone, that the only mediator between us and God is His Son Jesus. For by grace u have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing, it is the gift of God, not result of works, so that no one may boast. (Eph.2:8-9)

Joan Oviedo Ravi Zacharias is also an amazing speaker! If you haven’t heard him PLZ do look him up!!!! I will be sad the day he leaves us and happy all at the same time! God bless!

@@mandivvy Pray for Ravi please. I've heard he got a form of cancer.

89792131121607920 math is cool I hate to hear that! Ravi is such a light to the world! Will def say a prayer!!!!

Here after Dr. Zacharias has passed away :( Rest In Peace Ravi.

@@danielshulgan831 listen to Mike Pence speak at Ravi's funeral AWESOME

@Matthew Ritter - John MacArthur preaches "ANOTHER GOSPEL" of Lordship Salvation.

Hogyn Drwg but John said the Judaism and Christianity have the same god??? That is absolutely not true

@@bobseaver7807 as a christian you can say that! Not as one that denies that jesus is the messiah! Are you still waiting for the messiah? Daniel chapt 9 says that he would come and be cut off but not for himself it also says that would happen 430 years after a signing of a decree by cyrus to let the jewish people return from babylon to Jerusalem.....actually the exact day happens to be on nissan 10 33ad the day jesus road into Jerusalem on the back on a foal of a donkey fullfilling zak 9:9. The jewish people acknowledged him as the messiah! Called him son of david! Said save now! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD! All messanic terms! The religious leaders told jesus to tell the people to stop saying the things that they are saying and he replied that if they did not say them that the very rocks would come to life to say them! Jesus is the messiah! He fulfilled many prophecies reguarding the messiah!

James Bayly What does your reply have to do with what I posted?

Bob Seaver ... perhaps you’d kindly explain please?

Hogyn Drwg 1 John 2:23 says.. “Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father; the one who confesses the Son has the Father also.” The Religion of Judaism rejects Jesus Christ so they have not the Father(Yahweh). Thus they have a different god. It’s that simple.

Eric - why is this a model of dialogue? It was an interview of a Christian clergyman. Neither you nor the reverand asked or learned anything about traditional/orthodox Judaism.

@@marchess7420 There was a lot of conversation going on. Listen for it.

@@marchess7420 the pastor pointed out many things from the old testament. So, I would say, things were learned or at least pondered upon with this interview.

MacArthur has uttered numerous heresies. He needs someone to preach Christianity to him.

@@marchess7420 did you watch the conversation at the 54th minute onward??

Same!!

YES!! This was spiritually monumental. This was divinely commissioned. Clearly, THIS is meant to be a declaration by God the Father, a call to salvation to those Jews who are chosen for His Glory at that moment in time. Let us pray that hearts and minds were opened by Our Savior..🙏🙏🙏

Oh definitely. Shapiro seems to be a smart man, hopefully smart enough to see Jesus. If not it makes one think his image is more important than truth.

Yes I agree with you

Trippy you mention that, ditto.

However, this pastor cherry picks scripture..... by his teaching here, he would not back up Jesus flipping the tables in the temple yard, etc. This pastor is so far from liberation theology it's as misguided imbalance.

Gurp Preet yes!!! Let’s keep praying Ben comes to know his messiah!

Praise God that you did!! I will surely listen to this again!! And could again and again!

Same!!

Amen to that

They both hate black people

Well said Colin... and well done!

Same here brother. I can't get enough of his teaching. I listen to him 8 to 12 hours a day for few years now. He is biblically sound.

@The Truth of the Matter The Truth of the Matter huh... More like you lied your entire comment. Oh and your grammar is bad. I'm not surprised you've privatized your RU-vid profile page. You probably don't garner much support biased on your stellar commenting prowess.

@The Truth of the Matter Not sure of what comments you're referencing, neither will anyone else, so I'm just going to keep to commenting contextually about this video and your off the wall comment that he LIED about Christianity the ENTIRE video. I despise people who dramatically overuse absolutes. What cereal box did you find your bible in?

🥱

AMEN!

Hard Boiled Entertainment - Ravi gets my next vote too.

Hard Boiled Entertainment What about Russel M. Nelson? No wait, this would be too politically involved. Maybe someone like him who isn't in a leadership role.

John Bytheway?

Yes for a Sunday Special with Ravi Zacharias. :D

Please no, no Ravi for me.

You are so right! We all know what Ben Shapiro has given to our country. And we know that God created him such! As you mention, this interview was no accident, it was a divine encounter for Shapiro! And yes, we are all pulling for him!

Yeah, I wish they didn't edit it. Almost looked like Shapiro had watery eyes when MacArthur was professing his admiration for him, even while saying he'd always come back to preaching Christ if they hung out lol..

YES!!! I have rewinded it SOOOO many times just cause how it makes me feel

Same man

what about when he stops talking and starts talking about advertisements lol

@@vladv.8819 I wish he'd take on a different format from that. He should record that separately, and then simply splice it into the edit when there is an opportune moment. Then again, the format he uses is modeled after how they used to do it on Live TV, and there is a certain charm to that which I like. However, there is also the fact I can simply fast-forward the adverts until they start speaking again--which I do. So, it kind of defeats the purpose of using the format in the first place.

Blasphemy

@@vladv.8819 😅

That's it right there.

Yes and Ray Comfort too!

that would be awesome

we want that!

@@HappyMadScientist Ray Comfort is not on the intellectual level Ben is looking for if he were to reach Christ on an intellectual level to make a leap of faith in the heart..

@@ellkir1521 Eric Metaxas then 😁

What about Micheal Brown? Look him up if you havent heard of him I think he would be great.

If only Yeshua or Yahweh would come back I would become born again.

@@JamesRichardWiley the kingdom of heaven is near.... that is said over and over again in the bible, that means that when you except Jesus Christ as your lord and savior and start a personal relationship with Jesus, he brings heavenly matters and god into your life. It happens now not when he comes back, god bless you.😇

Check Daily Wire a month ago.

Rick Manabat great thought on asking for Ravi to be on Ben’s show. I just love listening to Ravi. He is a pretty incredible speaker and he gets to a view point that really opens your eyes and ears.

At least there’s a HelixSleep mattress waiting for them at home

😂😂😂😂😂😂

😂😂 this is hilarious and could absolutely see it happening

Lol

I laughed so hard at this comment so thank you lol

They are two very different people unique and special in their own ways. I agree from the perspective of they both love God and adhere to the Bible as the source. Sorry I'm very strong believer that since God wove us in our mothers wombs we, each one of us, can't ever be replaced we each one are God's masterpieces. You are a masterpiece created by God's own hand. Lucky you.

Both John and Charles are two great men of God. Thankful to have them teach me the Word of God

My 2 favorites. John and Charles are powerful tools of God.

Roco Roco you can sorta attend his church, as most of his sermons are on-line. I have enjoyed many of them, though I live three states away.
