[@QueeeeenZ]

Thank you for posting this!

[@THEBEREANCHRISTIAN]

No worries!

[@gzxi3036]

One MUST confess one’s sins before preaching the Word of God. This sermon should be deleted. 😢😢😢

[@KristiLEvans1]

No. It’s a cautionary tale.

[@j.martin4476]

he will never be qualified to be behind the pulpit again confession or not. His moral failing is a disqualifier for any form of church leadership. truly tragic. prayers for his family and his repentence and prayers for the woman involved. may they both repent willingly and truly seek Christ forgiveness.

[@LifeandLifeMoreAbundantly]

how do you know he didn't repent?

[@reformedtubers1028]

I also pray that all these so called strong believers who are saying a lot of things about Steven Lawson will go through it so that they will understand that not even the strongest most godly human is immune to sin. even those who believe they are steadfast in their faith will be tested. Steven Lawson's experience serves as a poignant reminder that we are all vulnerable to the temptations. It is during these moments that we realize the limitations of our flesh.

[@jotaone]

At least there is one Christian site / channel that does not apply the Roman DAMNATIO MEMORIAE to the fallen leaders while still alive.

[@UrsulaHelen]

How could he preach, besides his sin?? Have mercy to all the listener. But truly said, I cannot listen at the moment to him.

[@meghalaratnaiya9113]

Simply thinking of Jesus's words - Watch and pray lest you enter into temptation.

[@rolandgo6744]

The message is perfect. The messenger is not.

[@johanmartinez9274]

Galatians 6:1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.

[@TalbotSlade]

You might want to read the moral requirements of a pastor set out by Paul. Scripture tells us that such teachers will fall under special judgement and should not ever again hold a position of leadership. You should be more concerned for all the believers that will fall and hurt as a result of his hypocrisy. Many will now question the faith. Was it all just an act? Clearly he did not believe what he preached.

[@Gargeler]

Dr.Steven quotes “We need men who knows the Truth”… well men can know the truth, its just that the Truth must live within them. A Man of God who loves His word would experience this promise from 1Cor 10:13, God will provide a way of escape from such temptation apparently Dr.Steven did not..

[@inchristfaithfulandtruewitness]

We MUST decrease but HE must increase All sins and blasphemy will be forgiven but blasphemy of the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness Stephen saw The Lord Christ lifted up High and Exalted and the unbelieving stoned Him Well done Faithful Servant who loved their “life” not unto Death but Raised In Him who Hath Life Eternal Amen Christ Jesus Hosea 6

[@Napartaq]

Before we throw this baby out with the bath water, consider Jesus’ response to His disciples when they complained that non-believers were using Jesus’ name to perform miracles. Mark 9:38. Jesus didn’t condemn the use of His name by fallen humans. Not saying Lawson’s sermon / lifestyle were in any way acceptable! Imagine how many sermons have been preached by men of the cloth in an unworthy manner.

[@R.L.KRANESCHRADTT]

He is speaking to a congregation who has no idea what is about to transpire, and asking not to be judged for a 'hiccup' of indiscretion. But rather asking for 'grace' which he has never afforded anyone else caught in the same trap in which he now finds himself. By the same yardstick he has measured others he now must reconcile that according to Calvinists doctrine, his entire Christian experience may be no more than an episode of 'Evanescent Grace'. He has publicly proclaimed God will only use a 'perfect vessel'. As a non-Calvinist I can accept and pray for him as a fallen brother caught in sin and able to repent. BUT, Calvinism does not afford this as an option. The doctrine declares whatever his 'transgression' was/is must be accepted to be a manifestation of God's perfect will, (secret or otherwise). And immutably, eternally, decreed from the foundation of the world... for God's glory. He literally could not have done anything else. Otherwise, he must have a 'free will' to make moral, meaningful, choices. The Compatibilist claims that he would choose according to his greatest desire, which would always choose sin because of his 'sinful nature', to which any truly "elect" person would no longer be in bondage!

[@waholoopesorry74]

Your understanding of Calvinism is extremely wrong

[@R.L.KRANESCHRADTT]

@@waholoopesorry74 Please enlighten me.

[@markreid1806]

​@@R.L.KRANESCHRADTT not sure you would actually care to listen from the sounds of it. Go read Calvin's institutes of the Christian religion.. That would be best to hear it from the horses mouth so to speak.

[@R.L.KRANESCHRADTT]

@@markreid1806 I'm familiar with scripture, and familiar enough with Calvin's institutes to understand he was misguided. Nobody thought through the consequences of Calvin's doctrine more than John Calvin himself. Most of those who claim to be Calvinists have never thought it through to it's unavoidable conclusions. JOHN CALVIN: "Calvin on Perseverance wrote: “For PERSEVERANCE ITSELF IS INDEED ALSO A GIFT OF GOD, which he does not bestow on all indiscriminately, but imparts to whom he pleases. If one seeks the reason for the difference-why some steadfastly persevered, and others fail out of instability-none occurs to us other than that the Lord upholds the former, strengthening them by his own power, that they may not perish; while to the latter, that they may be examples of inconstancy, he does not impart the same power” (Institutes 2.5.3; Calvin 1960:320)." (emphasis mine) And, regarding Evanescent Grace he writes; ...." Still it is correctly said, that the reprobate believe God to be propitious to them, inasmuch as they accept the gift of reconciliation, though confusedly and without due discernment; not that they are partakers of the same faith or regeneration with the children of God; but because, under a covering of hypocrisy they seem to have a principle of faith in common with them. Nor do I even deny that God illumines their mind to this extent .... there is nothing inconsistent in this with the fact of his enlightening some with a present sense of grace, which afterwards proves evanescent.” (3.2.11, Institutes) (( Evanescent Grace is indistinguishable from genuine Grace... until if fails by design)) Calvin continues; “Yet sometimes he also causes those whom he illumines only for a time to partake of it; then he justly forsakes them on account of their ungratefulness and strikes them with even greater blindness.” (Institutes of Christian Religion, 3.24.8) ((their ungratefulness is also by God's decree)) Calvin continues; “We cannot imagine any certainty that is not tinged with doubt, or any assurance that is not assailed by some anxiety. . . . Believers are in perpetual conflict with their own unbelief” (Calvin, Institutes, 3.2.18). ((there is no assurance of personal salvation afforded in Calvinism)) Even R. C. Sproul wrote of his own personal struggles. In Calvinism, Grace is bestowed on only some. These they call the "elect" their number cannot be added to or taken away. BUT Grace that is only Evanescent looks, feels, and manifests exactly as that which is genuine .... yet it is not intended to last, and it will eventually fail. No one can ever know if what they believe they are experiencing is the result of God's true affection, or not. They cannot trust the faith they believe they have, any more than the God they believe gave it to them. John MacArthur admits, "How can I know if I am saved?" is the single most asked question at all their conferences. All the leaders have a ready-response. But the have no 'answer'. Just look for "evidence" and hope for the best. If you want to do Christian things.... you're probably saved, because an unregenerate probably would not....probably.

[@4evamobbin534]

You are the guy Paul is arguing with in Romans 9. How can he still find fault, for who can resist his will? All things bring glory to God. Whether sin or obedience. If sin didn’t bring God glory then we would literally have purposeless evil. Examples being Joseph being sold into slavery and Christ being killed unjustly. Then you might reply… shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? To which Paul would say by No means!!! So now we go to first John which highlights people making profession of faith while their actions betray their profession of faith. Why would you pray for him? He has free will and God cannot violate that by your Arminian worldview. We can actually pray for him as Calvinists and ask God to, by his spirit, convict him concerning his sin and then at which point God may do that and then he will truly repent and be healed. God being in control should give you hope and certainty that all things he wants, he actually gets. We are not puppets, we make choices, but we should never make an excuse for sin baby saying to ourselves, I want this sin, I can’t choose anything other than what I will end up choosing, so I’ll pick the sin. When in reality you’re believing a lie and that’s why you choose the sin and use the decrees of God to justify your sin. Paul argues literally against that over and over because people like you hear what he is clearly saying then twist his words. I mean please go read Romans and see that Paul is literally arguing in response to Arminian mind sets.

[@toddmiller7876]

I really can't understand why any of them think adultery is so terrible. Afterall they elected an adulterer to the highest office in the land. The person that represents their values, their morals, is an adulterer. Not only that, he's a liar, a thief, wants to murder his political opponents, and has never done anything wrong to ask forgiveness for. They are supposedly the moral majority.

[@sukkumargeorge7768]

All men including you, me and Steve Lawson are in flesh. Paul explicitly lists the works of the flesh in Gal 5. So all men who are Church leaders, Elders and Pastors are not exempt from the works of the flesh. The LUST (desire) of flesh Paul mentions is not SEXUAL desires. It’s the desire to be obedient to the moral Law. Those who walk in spirit believing that Jesus has kept the moral Law perfectly in their place as their substitute and Proxy are those who have overcome the lust (desire) of their flesh to keep the moral law to Please God. Lawson and his friends John MacArthur Jr and all are the same. Claiming to be moral (a lie) a changed life style since regeneration ( actually nothing has changed) JM says Lawson has forfeited his leadership. What about John? He is no different. Even if he had once watched porn or masterbated once focusing on any other woman apart from his wife after his conversion… he too has committed the same sin as Lawson.

Knowing he is pretty aged and incompetent physically if compared to those younger ones, what is the point that the women were attracted to him anyway? Money, influence, fame, wisdom, etc. ? Now all have gone forever.
