John Macathur the kind of teaching that leads to a fruitful Christian life with joy in the hope of salvation 🎉 Amen 🙏

@mike smith sorry what point are you making my friend?

[@friendyadvice2238]

@mike smith having read your reply are you saying that you think salvation is not by grace and is by works??? Only faith in Jesus will save anyone. Im still not 100% sure what point you are making. Are you saying you do not believe that salvation is through faith alone??

[@friendyadvice2238]

@mike smith the way I like to think of it has been expressed as follows "salvation is a gift to the guilty not a reward to the righteous", and this is the way I hold it. What could I possibly do to add to Christ's work at the cross. I truly believe that is the case.

[@fredcourtney03]

Thank you for all your efforts to prepare these sermons. It is truly a blessing to hear the words of Dr. MacArthur. The way he presents the Bible with the authority and grace of a man who has dedicated his life to the word of God.

[@mrnoedahl]

One of John MacArthurs greatest sermons.

[@gospeltracks]

Once you come to the realization that the Bible in fact is real and should be taken seriously and literally and in proper context then understanding what it means will become clear.

[@michaelfoster8530]

Thank you for that breath of fresh air. Finally, a minister who is willing to tell it like it is. That is the first sermon I have ever heard concerning the Wide and Narrow Gate. The narrow gate is a path of hard self reflection and a crucifying of the ego. A stripping away of the ego, to reveal Emmanuel. Our true light that we hide under the basket. I was amazed at all of the slack jaws and horrified faces, when they were told that they were damned to hell if they didn't enter through the narrow gate. Personally, I am tired of people telling me that they have their ticket to heaven because they are a believer. Utter Nonsense. The Gospel of Matthew really speaks to me. Jesus is pointing out the road map for us, but the readers are to captivated by his miracles and the nice stories to even notice it. Jesus was not talking about a kingdom that you reach when you die, it is a kingdom that can be reached and enjoyed while you are alive in this body.

[@jovianactie3544]

Amen, this video will save lots of lives!

[@carvilk]

Is the reason so few go through the narrow gate is because one must experience the first four beatitudes...1) broken in spirit, 2) mournful, 3) meek, and finally then thirst after the truth and righteousness. Then and only then we can enter the narrow gate. The next four beatitudes are how we are to live our life in Christ after being saved.

If you could lose your salvation you would- John MacArthur

[@Angelgirl44918]

The only way to heaven is believing in the death , burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ!!!! If you believe in him and except him as your lord and savior , your sins are washed away... does that mean it’s ok to keep sinning because I believe upon Jesus Christ as my lord and savior ? God for bid !!!!!

[@dooeege298]

If you believe in Christ`s burial and ressurrection and that it for the atonement of sins, you will be saved at that instant, you may not know it like me for 50 yrs, just found out a couple of days ago thru these scriptures I put up...

[@dooeege298]

discipleship comes after you`re saved if you choose to do so, remember once you`re saved you have freedom in Christ, your sins don`t count with him, but the consequences of sin are troubles here onearth ,,,God doesn`t punish anyone our sins do that just fine, once saved God doesn`t see your sins but now you can go to good works for rewards in heaven, works is not needed for salvation only believe..And That`s it, That is how I found true freedom in Christ and now I work for my rewards...

[@dooeege298]

This is the way to be saved... Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. Genesis 15:6 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness. John 3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. John 5:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. John 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. John 7:38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. John 11:25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: John 12:44 Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me. John 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. Romans 3:26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. 1 Corinthians 14:24 But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all: 1 John 5:5 Who is he that over cometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? 1 John 5:10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. Mark 9:23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. John 6:40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. John 6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. John 11:26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? John 12:46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness. Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Romans 9:33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumbling stone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

Can someone help me. I believe in Jesus and I read the bible day and night, I ask forgiveness almost daily for my sins weather outward sins or thoughts that are flesh based. I get tempted daily and sometimes slip up. But soon after I see my error and ask forgiveness and for God to help me Am I on the narrow path? And at what point am I saved? This message leads me to think there's a certain works required for salvation

[@aacc2216]

You must repent. Bible says you must repent or perish. Matthew 7 says not everyone who says to me Lord will enter the kingdom but who do the will of my Father. Confessing is a thing you must do when you sin and God will forgive and cleanse you of all unrighteousness. (1 John) Pray to God for godly sorrow and that He grants you repentance. It's hard too say if you're on the narrow path. But bible says you must examine yourself if youre in the faith. What do you think? Bible says that the spirit testifies we are children of God. Sin shall not have dominion over you for you are under grace. When you sin is it habitual? If it is that's practicing sin. Matthew 7 Jesus will say depart from me you workers of lawlessness. 1 John lawlessness is sin. Jesus said if you love me you will obey the commandments

YOU SAY that there are only two choices one Heaven & one Hell that's NOT WHAT THE SCRIPTURE SAY. When Adam & Eve where created they had the prospect of living on there Home this Earth FOREVER ,but because of there sin they lost that privilege for themselves and there offspring. But that wasn't the end God immediately put into place a rescue plan called the SEED Genesis 3:15 that SEED Was the Son of God Jesus Christ he would bring back to mankind what was lost and that was for man to live on this EARTH FOREVER, PSALMS 37:29,PSALMS 115:16, ISAIAH 45:18, PSALMS 37:11, MATTHEW 5:5, And yes in that plan Jesus will have some humans with him in his Heavily Kingdom as KINGS & PRIESTS To rule over mankind on this EARTH FOREVER. Please read your Bible.

It is written, the WORD of God is foolishness for those who perish. All are called, for the LORD at the Last Supper said this is the New Covenant, New Testament, without the shedding of Blood, HIS blood, there is no remission of sins, He shed His Blood for the MANY, prior to that the Jew was alloted a Salvation plan. Presently All are called, it is written, as Christ said, the Many, but few enter in. Wide is the way to hell, narrow the way to heaven. You will still face Judgment and bow to HIM

@Aron Jackson John MacArthur is a great teacher, and I have listened to all his sermons and agree with him 98 percent of the time. If you are preaching according to scriptures you should not be afraid of hearing comments from other Christians. I know it can get heated at times, but to question and debate is not a crime or sin. I really love John MacArthur. His book The Gospel According to Jesus is one of my favorite. But him and R C Sproul and other Calvinist are afraid of debate or discussions about Calvinism. Freedom of speech is very important. And Almighty God believes in freedom.

@Aron Jackson I do not mean that the Scriptures should be up for debate, but for so called doctrines of men that is and should be up for debate.

In my opinion if scriptures say both then it is both, even if there is a present contradiction.

This man is VERY MISLEADING he suggests that You are the one that CHOOSES to go to HEAVEN. THE SCRIPTURES however show that there must be a calling and choosing of ones by GOD through his son. 2Timothy 1:9,10. Matthew 22::14. 1Peter2:9. Now ask yourself this question if King David DID NOT ascend to Heaven why should you ? Please read Acts 2:34. Then ask why is God "taking" SOME to HEAVEN and what will they be "DOING" once there.? Then ask who are these people and where are they seen. Matthew 5:5 Psalms 37:9-11; 29, I look forward to your SCRIPTURAL reply.

I'm not responsible for what God does, but I am responsible for what I do. So I concentrate on what the Lord requires of me, and leave the rest in his hands.
