Lecture 2: Fundamentals of Expository Preaching - Dr. John MacArthur

[@PastorDan93]

I am highly inspired in my personal study of Expository Preaching when I see Dr. Lawson actively, attentively listening, and taking notes. Oh, that I may still have the same drive to learn and grow as a man of God at his age. Still hungry, still desiring more of Christ, needing more of His Word. Beautiful. Thank you!

[@microstrader]

This!

[@darylfoster3175]

I think it's a strong statement regarding Dr. MacArthur's teaching when Dr. Lawson is sitting there taking notes as well. I've enjoyed both of these men and their ministries for several years and they are two of the strongest expositors I've ever heard. Thanks for posting this, it is a great help to a bi-vocational pastor of a small congregation.

[@microstrader]

This!

[@kennethmitchell2478]

It’s not a replacement for attending seminary. But these classes are definitely a blessing. Thank you for making this lecture series available to all who are seeking further education and instruction.

[@selwin26]

Rich teaching. Thanks I am from India, far east of the world yet so much blessed by the Masters Seminary Online documents and videos.

8. Depreciates by example the spiritual duty and priority of person Bible study 9. Prevents the preacher from being the voice of God on every issue of his time. 10. Breeds a congregation as weak and indifferent to the glory of God as the preacher is 11. Robs people of their only true source of help 12. Places the responsibility on the preacher to change people 13. Reduces the preachers words to everyone else’s words 14. Portrays an attitude of self-love rather than loving the Lord. 15. Creates a destructive disconnect between sound doctrine and life

Thank you so much, helped with keeping up in my note-taking!

[@rickperez1336]

[@oliviaedralin1436]

Amazing content… here’s a faithful man of God who made his living in accordance to the Word of God, teaching expository, depth and beauty of loveliness of Christ! So thankful for his influence , teaching in my solid christian life.

[@DanielVanNorman-j5k]

I really enjoy listening to lawson and mac Arthur preach the word of God it explains and gets in detail of what it says

[@valentinamorales2403]

Getting the best of God in this college wow what a blessing from my room on my phone thank you Lord

[@188metalhead881]

Thank you Mr. MacArthur, thank you very much!! God bless you!

[@michaelrivoli5535]

I love Dr Steven Lawson teaching I'm a street minister 70 years old and having Bible studying at McDonald's hi steve

[@scottadkins9040]

God bless you, brother. Takin' it to the streets, or on the road...just like Jesus.

[@Metatron141]

Everything that he has mentioned here I learned about in Bible College and I went to a Pentecostal Bible College. In Bible College Expository preaching was emphasized by most of my instructors and the Theologians. Very important to be able to accurately understand and know what God is disclosing in His Word.

[@shanepursley8526]

What bible college did you attend? Thnx

[@valentinamorales2403]

Am the only women here this is a great teaching for my self am so grateful for God for Dr MacArthur for bringing the bible to the front. I been in that movement where is about the spirit speaking a new thing healing teaching and all that, but I felt empty. Now my spirit is awaken and the truth set me free.

[@haltersweb]

valentina morales I am another woman here :-). The older women should teach the younger. How can we teach the younger women without knowing and sharing God’s Word only, rather than feelings and personal beliefs. We also need to teach the young women to only look to God’s Word for answers. We need to teach them and model to them how to do that. May you be blessed as you dig into the word, writing it on your heart, and thus being a model for other women.

[@oliviaedralin1436]

I’m the other woman watching as well ❤

[@MosesCherrington]

Excellent insight into the reasoning behind "Expository Preaching". Truly, God's Glory is revealed by using His Word "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God..." 2 Tim 3:16. What an vital role we have in preaching God's Word, empowered by the Holy Spirit "Study to show yourself approved..."2 Tim 2:15, "not by might, not by power but by His Spirit" Zechariah 4:6. In essence, we are empowered for His Glory:-)

[@2timothy23]

Great teaching; watched this and part one and am very grateful that this was posted. I will continue to go through these lectures; it is a blessing from God to hear good teaching that honors, explains, and glorifies the person and word of Jesus Christ our Lord. I live on the other side of the U.S. on the East Coast and I can't get to this college, but it is great that I can "sit in" on KZbin and take notes. Thank you again for posting and continue to glorify the Lord in all things.

[@jbrunogds]

It really is an immense privilege to be able to see these lectures

[@scottadkins9040]

Thank the Good Lord for Rev. John MacArthur....thank the Lord.

[@thekidd263]

Charles Spurgeon - Lectures to my Students pg 154 "Self-interest quickens attention. Preach upon practical themes, pressing, present, personal matters, and you will secure an earnest hearing."

[@villiestephanov984]

Correct. [ Al-qur'an 36:30 ]

[@PremThodeti]

Thank you for the resources. Your ministry of clarity is much appreciated!

[@alfonsopacpaco1650]

A big thanks. Appreciate everything. God bless you and your ministry.

[@naohfaith3165]

I wish I could attend the Master Seminary one day . :) God's willing

[@handyman7297]

Bendito sea el Señor! Ojalá hubiera podido asistir al Master Seminary

[@ChristopherLScott]

Thanks for these.

[@darrellmartin5753]

That was very very excellent. Thank You.

[@lorenzosablaya8079]

awesome teaching...I'm blessed...glory to God....

[@JerseyGurl4Life]

This is gold!

[@lorenzamcintyre6890]

Great work!

[@desmondgilmore4445]

Encouraging teaching.

[@aristarco1987]

Excellent !!!!

[@therifleman4551]

This is great stuff! Amen.

[@eleos4u]

51:34, Did MacArthur said about Trinity: one Person yet Three? Is God can be one Person ever? Is it just speach mistake or doctrine of MacArthur?

[@crisgagt]

i think is just a speach mistake

[@mattbailey4507]

Yes, three yet one, God the Father is not the Son, nor is He the Holy Spirit, Jesus is not the Holy Spirit, nor the Father, the Holy Spirit is not the Father, nor the Son, yet God is ONE, God is not without the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, the three make the ONE whole. In Gen. God said let US make man in OUR image, He did not say in my image, God always give full deity to each member of the God head, there is an awesome look at this when Jesus gets baptized, also in gen.18:2 Abraham bowed himself, here is the Lord. I have to stop for now, but will be happy to help you with more study if you truly wish to learn about the God of the Bible, Blessings

[@eleos4u]

Matt Bailey Probably you misunderstood the point. One Person is not the same as One God. God is THREE Persons, not One. Three persons yet one deity!

[@mattbailey4507]

One person yet three, is what you are referring to? You are saying God is not a person? He is a person, a God person, yet three persons that make up the one God, If you are looking to split hairs and make it something other than a hair it is still a hair, in God's case He is one yet three, God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit, God the Father is a person, God the Son is a person, God the Holy Spirit is a person, It is very safe to say God is a person.

[@eleos4u]

One person yet three persons.? Sounds heretical.

[@enriquelandaf]

You shall the Lord thy God and Him shall you only service, love the the Lord with all your Heart, Mind, Spirit, Soul, and Strenght. and love your neighbors as yourself. PRAY FOR THEM. On this these two principles hang all the Law and prophets. & witness to them through Practical LOVE. This will please the Lord more than Having a Doctorate of Divinity.

[@speaktruthinlove119]

good stuff. taking notes. hoping to preach one day. :)

[@constancemitchell9846]

Wow. John, one thing women cld be in this class too who love teaching God's word at women's conferences/Sunday schools, the mission fields. Why are women excluded if they have no desire to be pastors but r only interested in teaching the Word of God. Wld like an answer, please

[@joshuatheo1419]

Because there is no setting in which they are allowed to preach the Word.

[@saved6655]

@@joshuatheo1419 yes they must teach younger women. Women must be washed with the word by there husbands. So they must know the word so they can pass the gospel correctly and teach where scripture commands them to teach.

And now when He had taken the scroll, the 4 living creatures and the 24 elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp and golden bowls full of incense, which are the Prayers of the Saints.( DOCTRINE) Now, as I looked at the living creatures, behold, a wheel was on the earth beside Each Living Creature with ITS 4 faces: ( Matthew, Luke and Mark :)...lol THEN a voice came from the book of Revelation' saying " Praise OUR God, all You His Servants and those who fear Him or not , both small and great"". (( Translation anyone ? ~ Al-qur'an 37:12-18 // 2:18 Ephesians ? ((😂😘))

[@kennethfraire8152]

I hate topical preaching now. I used to think it was good, but it vastly destroys and dilutes the truth of the word of God. Expository seems to give the most full truth and understanding of the gospel.

[@realperson4494]

Love Macarthur. However his view on infant deaths is wrong and no biblical. It's inconsistent with his own worldview that God predestined some for wrath and some for glory. No where in scripture do we see that all of the unborn babies who die are predestined for glory. God predestined before the foundation of the world those whom he would elect and those who he would not. There is no age of accountability. All have sinned. All are "sinful at birth", and "in sin did our mothers conceive us." Infant in the womb are no different. Before Esau and Jacob were born God said "Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated". Quite frankly I think the Bible is quite clear on this issue.

[@codyvandal2860]

Are you saying that infants aborted in their womb before even drawing breath go straight to hell?

[@HearGodsWord]

Reading that comment makes me think John MacArthur is right.
