How to Obtain Eternal Life John Macarthur

[@fredcourtney03]

Lord I pray I am strong enough to forsake all in the name of Jesus Christ. My flesh is so weak. It longs for this world and works against my spirit. My spirit longs to see the face of my Lord and wounds he suffered for ME!! The struggle is real and I hope someone here will pray for me. Pray that i may model a strong, Christian man, so that my son may see the light through my life. Thank you!! Jesus Christ saves even ME!!

CALVINISM. 1. T. TOTAL DEPRAVITY , A DOCTRINE OF DEMONS. I'M NOT SAYING THE PEOPLE ARE DEMONIC, IM SAYING THE DOCTRINE IS. Calvinist, say we are dead, and that we can Not even respond to God unless he regenerates us. They turn salvation into a 2 step program, Get REGENERATED, then get BORN FROM ABOVE. 1st, God does a spiritual work that allows you to see the truth, then if you believe, you are born again. But the bible says,1 step is needed BELIEVE. New International Version JOHN 3:3 Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.” This total depravity is said to result in a total inability to contribute anything to one’s salvation, NOT EVEN A RESPONSE. ( But at the same time they teach age of accountability.) What a j😃ke English Standard Version JOHN 5:25 “Truly, truly, I say to you, an hour is coming, and is (NOW) here, when (the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God,) and those who HEAR will live. 2. U. UNCONDITIONAL ELECTION This means, only the ones Christ chose from the foundations of life are going to be saved, The rest are going to hell. BUT THE BIBLE SAYS. English Standard Version MATTHEW 7:13 (“Enter by the narrow gate.) For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. English Revised Version REV 22:17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And he that heareth, let him say, Come. And he that is athirst, let him come: he that will, let him take the water of life freely. 3. L. LIMITED ATONEMENT They say Christ only shed his blood for The elect. BUT THE BIBLE SAYS. Berean Standard Bible 1john 2:2 He Himself is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world. YES ITS LIMITED TO WHOEVER WILL RECEIVE IT, BUT ITS OFFERED TO EVERYONE . 4. I. IRRESISTIBLE GRACE Grace that cannot be resisted, but its only for the elect. This is the belief that the elect (those chosen by God) are going to be saved whether they desire to be or not. New International Version Acts 7:51 “You stiff-necked people! Your hearts and ears are still uncircumcised. You are just like your ancestors: (YOU ALWAYS RESIST THE HOLY SPIRIT!) (Joshua 24:15). Joshua told THE Israelites that they had the ability to choose whom they will serve Peter told those on the day of Pentecost to save themselves (Acts 2:40). By BELIEVING. 5. P. PERSEVERANCE OF THE SAINTS This means YOU HAVE TO persevere, hang on, hold fast to, not give up in order to be saved. BUT THE BIBLE SAYS. New International Version 1 CORINTHIANS 15:57 But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Calvinist make the death burial and resurrection of no effect, because if you are not elect it doesn't matter. Charles Spurgeon there is no such thing as preaching Christ and him crucified unless we preach what is called CALVINISM. What a joke! 🤔 First of all, notice that God gives man his soul (Ecclesiastes 12:7; Zechariah 12:1). Can or would God give a man an evil soul? NO. This would contradict James 1:17 which says that every good and perfect gift comes from God. God does not bring forth evil Psalm 51:5, X Psalm 58:3. X GOD IS THE GIVER OF THE SOUL, AND INDEED EVERYTHING THAT COMES FROM GOD IS GOOD. THE SEED OF ADAM IS BORN WITH A SINFUL NATURE, BECAUSE OF ADAMS SIN , BUT ADAM HIMSELF WAS PERFECT AND SINLESS WHEN HE WAS CREATED. SO NO MAN WAS NOT CREATED WITH A SINFUL NATURE, ONLY HIS SEED WAS BORN WITH ONE. ADAM = MAN= PERFECTION. ADAM’S SEED = US = SINFUL NATURE. WHEN GOD SPOKE WITH CAIN, HE SAID TO HIM, IF YOU DO WELL , WILL YOU NOT BE ACCEPTED. THERE WAS NO TOTAL DEPRAVITY THERE. CALVINISM IS BLASPHEMY. THEY DO NOT TRUST IN THE FINNISHED WORK OF CHRIST AND THE FULL ASSURANCE THAT COMES WITH IT. English Standard Version HEBREWS 10:22 let us draw near with a true heart in (FULL ASSURANCE OF FAITH with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. NOWHERE IN THE BIBLE, DOES IT TALK ABOUT BEING ELECTED FOR SALVATION, ONLY BEING ELECTED FOR SERVICE. There are those that God foreknew, and those he never knew. ROMAN'S 8:29 THE ONES HE KNEW. MATTHEW 7:23 THE ONE'S HE NEVER KNEW. JUST BECAUSE HE FOREKNEW YOU DOESN'T MEAN YOU WERE ELECTED, FOR SALVATION OR CONDEMNATION. JUST LIKE THE ONE'S HE NEVER KNEW, DOESN'T MEAN THEY WEREN'T ELECTED. THE BIBLE CLEARLY TELLS US THAT THE JUDGMENT IS THAT THEY LOVED THE DARKNESS RATHER THAN THE LIGHT. WE ARE CALLED TO TAKE THE MESSAGE OF SALVATION TO THE WHOLE WORLD, SO THAT EVERYONE CAN HAVE A CHANCE TO BE SAVED, IF THEY WOULD BELIEVE IT. King James Bible 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. God talked to Cain, Cain didn't believe God. God talked to Abraham. Abraham believed God. BOTH HAD A CHOICE. WHEN GOD CREATED ADAM AND EVE, HE GAVE THEM WITH FREE WILL TO CHOOSE. I HAVEN'T SEEN 1 VERSE WHERE GOD TAKES IT AWAY THAT ABILITY TO (CHOOSE) GAME OVER. 🎮 🥌 🏑 🎲 🎴 🏀 🎮 MAN HAS NEVER LOST HIS ABILITY TO HEAR, OR LISTEN. Berean Standard Bible MATTHEW 13:15 For this people's heart has grown callous; (THEY HARDLY HEAR WITH THEIR EARS), and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them." English Standard Version ROMAN'S 10:18 But I ask, have they not heard? Indeed they have, for "Their voice has gone out to all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world." YOUR CHOICE. GOD ELECTED PHAROH AND JUDAS , ELECTED DOESN'T MEAN SALVATION. FOR CALVINIST FAITH IS A WORK, SO THEY ARE NOT SAVED BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH.

I c why u turn off your comments I pray for them

[@KennyAnderson-kn7oh]

Something happened to me and now I take up my cross which is very hard but also rewarding

[@SDog6137]

Call Chosen and Elected... Period !!! John chapter 6: 37, 44, 65... Eph 2:8,9,10... God Calls, God gives us the faith to trust in Christ (HIM and HIM Alone)

[@SDog6137]

Well I'm shocked that you didn't let him know about predestination and the fact that God has to call us first...

Before 1980, Dr MacArthur preached faith alone. After he completed his months-long sabbatical where he submerged himself in Puritan theology, he taught through Matthew where he then unveiled a ‘different gospel’ (Gal. 1:6-9) called Lordship Salvation (which can found on his ministries website). The difference between Lordship and faith alone is simple: MacArthur took NT sanctification mandates for discipleship and front-loaded them into justification. Instead of of just believing in Christ for eternal life, the unbeliever was now expected to produce fruit, be obedient, “repent of sin” (stop sinning), and show by-his-works that he was, indeed, changed or as Calvinism states, ‘one of the elect.’ Lordship requires a 9-step life long process of ‘change’ in which the Christian must now work to KEEP his salvation, and his elect status. Failure to produce fruit within any of the 9 stages = loss of eternal life. In common theological parlance we would refer to Lordship as Roman Catholicism. As Dr Earl Radmacher (Editor, NKJV Study Bible) stated, “MacArthur paved the road back to Rome, not Wittenburg.”

[@nancyjessup9550]

No He didn’t A person who trusts in Jesus is accepting Jesus Lordship because His heart has been transformed but in this case the felt needs blinded him He needed the law to break him

The rich young ruler asked the same question Sell all you have and give to the poor was Jesus answer Yet zaccheus didnt ask the Question he voluntarily gave Away half his wealth and Received salvation!

Why does God the Father call Jesus GOD. New International Version But about the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever; a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom. Berean Standard Bible And from His mouth proceeds a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and He will rule them with an iron scepter. He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. King James Bible I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, (THE Almighty) King James Bible (I am he that liveth, and was dead;) and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. King James Bible Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book. King James Bible He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. King James Bible And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. JESUS IS THE ALMIGHTY. ALL THE PROPHECIES EVER SINCE THE BOOK OF GENESIS HAVE BEEN FULFILLED. The bible says that the word became a man. (FLESH) New International Version Therefore, when Christ came into the world, he said: “Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, (but a body you prepared for me;) In other words before Jesus took on human nature, ( flesh). What was he? John 1:14 = GOD became man. HE WAS GOD, ONE MEMBER OF THE TRIUNE GODHEAD. BECAUSE GOD EXISTS IN 3 FATHER, SON, AND HOLYSPIRIT. So before Jesus took on flesh HE was one with THE FATHER. Sharing the glory with THE FATHER , SELF EXISTING WITH THE FATHER IN TOTAL HARMONY, AND IN PERFECT UNION. THE bible says THE WORD took on the form of a servant . New International Version philippians 2:7 rather, HE made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. In order to take on the role of a servant, HE could not have been a servant. JESUS was not a servant until HE took On flesh, HE existed before HE took on flesh, but he wasn't a servant.HE IS God just Like the FATHER and just like the HOLYSPIRIT JESUS said if you don't believe me, believe the works the miracles THAT I DONE. New International Version john 10:38 But if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the FATHER is in me, and I in the FATHER.” It is very clear that Jesus was doing the things, That only God can do. If doing the things that only God can do Is not good enough for someone to believe, they must be blind. What more can you possibly want HE lived out a life greater than anything written can explain. He lived a sinless and perfect life. New International Version 2 corinthians 5:21 God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. No one on earth has ever done the works that he has done. He done it all ! NO ONE ELSE HAS EVER DONE ANYTHING CLOSE TO WHAT HE HAS DONE. HE LIVED THE LIFE THAT ONLY GOD COULD LIVE. HE DONE THE THINGS THAT ONLY GOD CAN DO. HE FORGIVES SINS. HE GIVES LIFE. HE IS THE SAVIOR. HE GAVE SIGHT TO THE BLIND. HE HEALED THE SICK HE WALKED ON WATER. HE CALMED THE STORM. HE CHANGED PEOPLE FROM THE INSIDE. HE SHINED LIGHT INTO THE DARKNESS. HE RAISED THE DEAD, HE RAISED HIMSELF FROM THE GRAVE, CONQUERING DEATH. HE SAID ALL THAT BELONGS TO THE FATHER IS MINE. WHO CAN MAKE SUCH A STATEMENT. THE LIST GOES ON. HE SAID IN JOHN 8:24 King James Bible I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I AM HE, ye shall die in your sins.

JOHN MAC ARTHUR HOW MUCH ARE YOU WORTH. DID YOU FORSAKE ALL. SALVATION IS BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH BY JUST BELIEVING THE GOSPEL. Let me see you 1st have to be predestined, then you have to forsake all. I don't think so. But it's OK to have a few million. You ain't holy or righteous, apart from God's righteousness, which is Christ. You ain't nothing but a simple man who should be passing along a simple. Message, john 3:16 and you have corrupted it.

[@freegraceprotestant]

Sigh. It doesn’t take 55 minutes to teach salvation. Read John 3:16 and believe in Christ. It is that easy. Easy believism works. Easy believism is orthodox. Easy believism is saving. Easy believism is the Word of God. Lordship is a “different gospel” and we are warned to steer clear (Galatians 1:6-9).

[@MatthewLPJesus]

Read Luke 13 . Lord, are there just a few being saved?

[@TheHeavenTestdotnet-gr2ou]

We are saved by believing the gospel of the GRACE of God - I Corinthians 15:1-4. Our gospel was ONLY preached by our Apostle Paul.
