3:38 Question 1 - Can you briefly explain the tenets of Reformed Theology, and does Reformed Theology continue to reform? 12:11 Question 2 - How, or in what way are we made in the image of God? 17:02 Question 3 - Do you have to hold knowledge of the gospel to be saved, can those with intellectual disabilities be saved? 24:02 Question 4 - We know that regeneration is all a work of God, but can people affect when they or others are regenerated? 27:39 Question 5 - Cessationism, please explain it. 30:38 Question 6 - At what level should pastors and leaders within the church be open about their own sin or failures? Are there dangers of too much versus too little public confession? 36:33 Question 7 - What does discipleship practically look like in the local church, how are the elders to model discipleship specifically with the individual members of their congregation? Is the Jesus with his disciples, or the Paul / Timothy relationship, are they a practical model of life on life practical discipleship? 41:53 Question 8 - What counts as the gospel going to all the nations? Is it reformed Theology, and the understanding of the gospel, or is it simply an open call to repentance?
I am Emmanuel Akepogu from Hyderabad,India. I praise God for these servants of God. I learned a great deal from John MacArthur. He is my teacher through his books.
Thank you Ligonier as always edifying content. homeschooling mom from India so listening slowly in bits and pieces 🙂 through the day . Thankful for pastor MacArthurs work which really turned my life around too. Praise God ❤️

Hello Niveditha! I am a homeschool mom of 4 children aged 5 and under listening in from Canada! I am so thankful for the ministries of MacArthur and Ligonier too.
@@mitchellc4 So aggressive! Why! 😉 I’m just joshing u. 👍 I know you’re just fired up & enthusiastic. It’s just something that non Christians would seize upon & accuse u of “forcing” your faith on others, call u “judgmental”, say you’re spreading “hateful/discriminatory speech”, & most egregious, say you’re a “fear monger”🙄. It’s so, so sad & extremely difficult to navigate & follow Jesus if you’re a recent recruit or born from about the mid 1990’s and kids who are of school age today. It takes absolute faith, strength, & obedience to spread the gospel & not be a modern day “Peter”. But that’s where we are now. Ppl hiding/disguising, & even denying their faith. Slaves to the secular world, loving the secular word being governed by Satan. I admit that I, too belonged to that group. A slave to the worlds love & addiction to everything not of Jesus, petrified of being ostracized. Now? Never. I’m no longer concerned w/ how anyone outside of God’s perfect grace feels about me. I don’t mean entirely, but rather in regards to my faith & love of God. Secular or not, I know I have friends who care for me I for them. I think about my secular friends & acquaintances often, I wonder how or what to say to them w/o sounding judgmental or
PTL for Johnny Mac I am a BILLY JACK from Australia saved out of Catholism at 56 years young from a very very sinful life. 💟 I would love to give Johnny Mac a hug too. 💟
I'm from Sydney, Australia. I would like to give Johnny Mac a hug as well. I have listened to all of his sermons through the New Testament. It took me 20 years. I finished at 40. I'm 50 now and so enjoy these live q and a sessions. Thank you !
@@michelletrew4872 well PTL Michelle glad to hear that. If I may enquire are you attending a good sound Bible based Church. If not I can direct you to one that my friends attend, it is St John's Park reformed Baptist Church. The pastor Todd Stanton is a graduate from the Masters Seminary which is GTY. 💖🙌
What a joy to be taught by men who have devoted their lives to the study of the bible and theology, and those who have done it for multiple decades are a special blessing !!
Pastor MacArthur I LOVED your response on discipleship for you have truly discipled me even though I have never met you.For years I went to churches that were like clouds without water not preaching the Truth and understanding that there was something wrong but not understanding what it was was an absence of the whole council of GODS word and twisting of scripture to manipulate people.I truly thank GOD everyday for you and literally listen to your sermons everyday.I invite people everyday to listen to you for themselves to be enriched with GODS WORD through your sermons and also many men like STEVE LAWSON. I thank GOD everyday for the defenders of the true gospel of JESUS CHRIST.I HAVE GROWN TREMENDOUSLY IN THE FAITH since the first sermon I heard about 4 years ago.TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!
With all due respect it may be gold but its not difficult. Difficult is walking out a ministry with a charismatic calling. Its not easy at all and Boris makes it much much harder. I like John Macarthur and get something from his teachings but he makes my life so much tougher than it has to be. He is so very wrong on this issue.
@@knowsmebyname right.. I personally don't agree with a lot of MacArthur's teachings. He is more about himself and less about scripture. Compare him with someone like Voddie Baucham who backs everything up with scripture. MacArthur uses what he THINKS. It's simple, scripture tells us that the Holy Spirit equips us and HIS word does not return void. Mac Arthur tries to act like he knows it all and complicates matters
39:25 ...Ps. John MacArthur “Discipled many people that I have not met”. Thank you Ps. John and the others for teaching the Word of God sincerely and boldly. Not sure if I will ever be able to meet you or the other faithful Bible teachers on this panel... but more importantly you’ll have passed on to me and many more the rich treasure of knowing Christ through the Word. Will be ever thankful for that... Love and regards from Mumbai, India.

Amen. I can remember feeling that desperation .........to be saved. I had been in church all my life and went before the church as an 7 year old child, but I wasn't under conviction so I wasn't saved. But when I was 26 years old, the gospel message broke my heart and I was saved. Thank you for this word today from the Holy Word. Maranatha.

19:46 “You have one access point to a sinner, and only one, and that is the sinner knows he's a sinner because the law of God is written in his heart, and his conscience accuses him.” 38:33 “Find somebody who knows more than you do and learn from them, find somebody who knows less than you do and teach them what you know; everybody should be in the flow of passing on the truth.”
With the "...being in the flow of passing on the truth." Sometimes I think some people fall for the sound of their own thoughts being aired. Then instead of "brevity being the soul of wit" they seem to want to expound and expand. I would rather be brief and moving right along...the rest is almost blandishments. And you don't always have to be the first one to answer, you only force someone else to formulate a defense against doing nothing but listening to you. Lay back some and let the spirit move... The moderator should get better at taking charge in subtle ways in some moments. But I love Pastor John and his words and understanding of the wretchedness and knowingness of the sinner made it all worthwhile. I hope I don't seem too critical, sometimes I think I have to speak.

The more I learn from these wise and ever so humble men of God, the hungrier I get! Meaning that this is by far the best time of my late years in life on this planet ! Thank you Ligonier Ministries for sharing such priceless treasures from Gods holy Word with the hungry ‚out there‘ !
If Doctor MacArthur came into my restaurant, I’d leave the kitchen to at least shake his hand, if not hug him. Christ used him and his teaching to reach me. I owe him my life, I was in a place with no hope, and if I wasn’t physically dead I was certainly spiritually and emotionally dead. Thanks Doctor for all your work.

@@danpan001 Northern Ireland in the 21st century is a multicultural society. In the past the main religions were Catholicism and protestantism.

John MacArthur played a part (in association with God) in the Salvation of Billy Jack. This is synergism in action and what was the talk about monergism? If God elects and saves people by His own will, then JM had no role to play in the life of Billy Jack. Discipleship: Jesus very clearly answers Nicodemus regarding being born-again, by talking about the Holy Spirit. Infact the discipleship course of Jesus Christ included pointing His disciples to the Holy Spirit, who would guide the born-again child of God into all of God's truth. 🧿 John 16:12-14 12) “I still have many things to tell you, but you can’t bear them now. 13) However, when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak from himself; but whatever he hears, he will speak. He will declare to you things that are coming. 14) He will glorify me, for he will take from what is mine and will declare it to you 🧿 John 14:25,26 25) “I have said these things to you while still living with you. 26) But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you. 🧿 1John 2:27 As for you, the Anointing which you received from Him remains in you, and you don’t need for anyone to teach you. But as His anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is no lie, and even as He taught you, you will remain in Him. This is discipleship, pointing to the Holy Spirit who will disciple the believer & the pastor alike, in God's truth.
I'll never understand the mind of a Calvanist! This pompous arrogance of who is the elite? And chosen dialect? All are commanded to receive God's gift of salvation! John 3:16, "For God so loved( the World) that he gave his only begotten Son! What's the problem?
I believe in God the Father, His son Jesus Christ and in the Holy Spirit. And the most what God hates, is a deviding church. And that is exactly what these men are proclaiming. The basics should be the faith in God, Jesus and Holy spirit. The rest ......... no sense. It doen not matter in which church you go. It is just a building and its rituals. Church are people who gathers together in the name of God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Do not believe in a church.......

John MacArthur said it right, in regards to whom God would use for signs & wonders through Spiritual gifts, IN OUR TIME: referring to the Health & Wealth Prosperity teachers who lavish upon themselves WORLDLY gifts, are obviously building their own kingdom on earth.
28:00 Please can someone explain how they can say that all signs and wonders ceased in the apostolic era when we are experiencing the same wonderful signs and wonders the first century churches did? Not trying to be argumentative or even sarcastic but would really appreciate an answer. (And we don't belong to any of the loony, false churches out there but believe mostly like you guys do.)

@@mitchellc4 STOP spamming the comments. The Gospel of Jesus Christ - (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) is the Gospel which saves, and is not the same as the Gospel of the Kingdom which was preached to the ancient Jews. It is not the same thing. Study your Bible, stop spamming the comments, and certainly stop spamming with false Doctrine. EDIT ------- By the way -- Jesus IS God come in flesh and walked the earth among men. Study your Bible.
@@TheMistysFavs Jesus said it’s for ALL NATIONS then the end Not “for the Jews until Paul” Matt 24 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. Paul preached the kingdom The Book of Acts ends with Paul preaching the kingdom Acts 28 30 For two whole years Paul lived in his own rented place and welcomed everyone who came to him. 31 He continued to preach about the kingdom of God and to teach boldly and freely about the Lord Jesus, the Messiah. Phillip preached the gospel of the kingdom in Acts Acts 8 But when they believed Philip as he preached the gospel of the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
If we sin shall me confess it before any of you gentleman or were we told to confess our faults ? There is a big difference you know. Even David said : My sin is ever before you Oh LORD and against you my God the Lord. THINK and give us a right answer if you or any can sit in Jesus's seat for who is like him ? Only he is Worthy for did any of you pay the price for sin ?I know not another but Jesus and him Chrusified but go ahead if you all like and play God. My God said that all men will hate you for my name sake and I agree. Come Lord Jesus. P.S. What is repentance men ? That they may know me said the Lord JESUS CHRIST by calling on Jesus our Christ God with us in the Son. 👍
On sin of pastor revealing it before church. I know once i was attending a church it was ok good for me. The pastor one Sunday said in service that he had raped a female I was so troubled that soon I quit going to that church and any for awhile , I just had a hard time figuring out how do i understand, It was like I could not sympathize. I did not want to have empathy for him, I was in my 40's then. living in a shelter with 3 children. Now that i am over 65 If I saw him again I could greet him and wish him well with honesty. I would hope that he had leaned discretion since that Sunday.

We live forever with Christ when we endure to the end. LORD GOD grant us the strength to endure to the end and grant us your strength and mercy if we stumble .

Giving me the promise of ever lasting life thru Christ Jesus 🙏 GLORY BE TO GOD!
I hear this word “sovereignty” attached to God and usually it’s said in this particular context... God has everything under his control. Is that a statement of truth or not?

I guess by what he is saying is that the Apostles forgot to lay hands on others to continue the torch right ? Come on men. What do we do about the verse that says in the last days I will pour my spirit upon all flesh ??? You do lack and are in error fellows for truly SALVATION is by the Grace of God. CHEERS
Great listening to Kim, very articulate but so easy to follow which I appreciate. I absolutely love these conferences, the time seems SO short and goes by so fast when you enjoy soaking up this knowledge.
I know only one thing I CAN IN NO WISE SAVE MINE OWNSELF but Jesus will by grace through Faith which by him through me unto good works for how can we not because we Love him who first LOVED us. 👍 Faith produces good works or else how can one say they have ever been LOVED ? And I have yet to be Loved by the known Churches for they in they're high mindedness kicked me out nor have they compelled to be among them and why because I said I heard the ALMIGHTY speak ? Shame on them for I lift up the Lord's name and not mine own name . I HAVE NOT A DEVIL !!! 😞
How do you know that DJ Razonable? I know non cessationists who love J Mac and Sproul and all the men on that stage. And I'm one. Be careful in pigeon holing people and by that lift yourself up as having the "right" view.
Accurate, simply put, presentation of Salvation through God’s choosing, and reaching , and quickening of the individual soul to repent and accept Jesus Christ as Savior ! Passing over God’s FIRST reaching out to the unsaved sinner to open their heart and mind , is detrimental to understanding the Glory, and mystery of Salvation. Thank you.

Scary thought to think God says, Oh John....you've decipled so many and done well however this I have against you. I sent you deciples to strengthen and be grounded in THE TRUTH. I had so many people for those you taught to heal, and perform miracles. You taught them so we'll in your truth, I had to send another. Not only did you steal miracles from your life but I must weigh you for the miracles you stole from so many of my children through you limiting their acceptance of my power in them. Reformation through all the centuries and mindsets of those stuck in THEIR understanding. Seek his understanding and believe
Why is it said that we must be as little Children to be SAVED ? Because they look to whom ? Me ? You all ? Or JESUS CHRIST God with us ? Thank you for Saving us Jesus for being the only One , the Christ and not another. 👍
Very sad to hear mcarther proclaim rynhard bonkers, Derek prince, spurgeon are all bad teachers/ preacher's. These preacher's explained and believed in the gifts. Jesus said " until my return, cast out demons, lay hands on the sick and preach the Gospel" in mark it shows fruit of the believer. If you don't do it, doesn't make you a bad preacher. Maybe look at why you hold fast to gifts Jesus clearly demonstrated and proclaimed we would also do when walking in Him. You clearly have the talent of teacher and do it well, be careful you don't teach things wrong because you can't grasp it, or justify it through like minded teachers. Don't throw away gifts that are miss used by bad preacher's.
J mac sermons online really helped me develop my faith, I have gained and continue to gain great theology from his teachings. However, there are channels like remnant radio, and Mike winger who's theology directly matches up with John mcauthor, they aren't "hyper charaistmatic" when you look at the most extreme examples or people in the church abusing the gifts it is easy to want to be a cessationist, I am still very open minded, but I would not call ,myself a cessationist now. I still believe the gifts are present and are used in the same way they were in the apostolic age, they make look different , and don't seem to be as common, but when God really wants to give someone a prophetic message, lay there hands on someone and heal them, speak in tounges, and wants to do it to edify the church by doing soo, I believe he can and still does. Still love all these guys , just would love for everyone not to look at the most extreme cases of hyper charismatic instances and think that's what most are like. Still seaking God about these things. Would love any channels , pastors, anything to keep broadening my knowledge of the Gospel and what others think and believe soo that I can minister to them if need be , or change , my views. I am just soo glad for personal discernment and the Bible in which we have to read for ourselves.
The Book of Acts reveals that there is no room for a Jesus plus plan from God The Father( hoping to find this in the Gospels simply is not there. God is the same yesterday, today, and forevermore). The beginning of the Church defines this absolutely✝️🩸🙏🏻❤️
Hmm...there are Calvinists in hell (Lawson 43:13). How can this be? Are such things as Irresistible grace, Unconditional Election, Limited Atonement a lie? Has God chosen to reject his elect? Perhaps Lawson means there a 'Christians' who believe Calvins teachings but have not been Predestined for election? Poor fellows never had a chance. Didn't realise the door was never opened for them. So close yet so far.
All Christian churches have mistakes in their doctrines and most of them should reform the day that they go , as a costume , Sunday to the biblical. Sabbath that Jesus kept, To Saturday , which God have in the 10 commandments and told His followers to remember. There is not one word In the Bible who shows God changing His mind to which day to keep. Sunday worship is a man establishment and only man usurping God’s command. The
Pastor MacArthur, if God can use a man to preach the Gospel and HE God does the healing of the Soul, why can't God heal the flesh of a man or woman who's sick by the prayers of the same Godly Preacher.
Faith alone & not baptism John , is that right? Let's see what transpires from this: Adam & Eve were the 1st 2 to be saved by blood ; Gen. 3:21 , life is in the blood; Gen. 4:10 , without shedding of blood is no remission: Heb. 9:22 From here to John's baptism was how it was done . In John 1:29 we see John seeth Jesus coming unto him, & saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh the sin of the world. What can wash your sins nothing but the blood ; you have to have the blood applied to your life in order to have favor with God. Here is how you get the blood I John 5:8; John said And there are 3 that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, & the water, & the blood: & these 3 agree in 1. They're altogether in 1: now I cannot show you his Spirit , it's invisible, & the blood that flowed from Calvary , I can't show you the blood ,but I can show you the water . Water, the blood, the Spirit : the Spirit comes to the water, the blood comes to the water, & that's where you get your sins washed away; is in the water . Moses told them turn your back on Egypt, that's repentance ; put Egypt behind you , come follow the love of God , turn around & put the world behind you. Then he led them to the sea :they had to go through the water to get to the promised land : isn't it interesting the name of the sea was the Red Sea. The blood is in the water ,there's no other water that can save you, but the water with the blood in it. How do I get the blood to the water, how do I get the Spirit to the water ? It's by calling on his name; for Peter said be baptized every 1 of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, & without the shedding of blood there is no remission . So if you get in the water,& they don't call his name ; no blood no remission ,some preacher takes you down to the river, & dips you 3 times ; no ;if blood no remission, if some 1 sprinkles you as an infant ; no blood no remission , but what about all these people that get baptized father, son, Holy Ghost ;no blood no remission; but there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved : Acts 4:12 , that name is Jesus .When you call on the name of Jesus , the Spirit comes wham , the blood comes wham ,it gets with the water,& when you get down in that water there's a cleansing, there's a washing ,& all your sins are washed away in the blood ,in the precious blood of Jesus ,& that's the only way to get the blood applied to your life is when you get in that water in the name of Jesus Christ. there's 1 Lord, 1faith, 1baptism Eph 4:5 ,it's for everybody, everywhere regardless of your background , regardless of your denomination. There is only 1 plan, there is only 1 salvation, there is only 1 gospel
I've been watching a lot of evangelical videos, trying to understand their perspectives. What sticks out is how often these videos just devolve into "here's why everyone else is wrong/sinful." Catholics, especially. What gives?
I believe that when God made humans in his image, I believe we were more like God. Pure and Holy like God. Then sin came into us...as well as death. We are no longer like when God first created us. That is why he sent the flood, as we were far from the same as when God first created us in his image, that image was gone. Then he sent Jesus to give us a way to redeem us. When we die, our physical bodies will be changed once again, quite possibly more like the image God intended us to be before sin came into us.
About 5:50 minutes in Lawson says that the faith that Justifies is a repentant faith that submits to the Lordship of Christ. So it seems that he would fall out against the Marrow men.
