False Christian teachings, trends….
This post contains an 8-minute video with a specific update on John MacArthur’s health by him. His congregation was very pleased to have him at the church again, as was I to see him. I’ve been listening to him since I was converted, 20 years ago. He has impacted Christians all over the globe.
This post contains a video short describing the hostile takeover of McLean Bible Church by David Platt and SBC. There are links to the documentary, parts 1 and 2. Also, a link to a post from this blog published in February of 2024 with a 12-minute overview of the scandal. The big point is that when cultural Marxist pastors enter into a church wearing their deceptive sheep’s clothing, the church is likely to become something other than a Bible-preaching church thereafter. Cultural Marxism is atheistic, anti-Christian, despite that many pastors are drinking it down, compromising to woke culture.
Sky News host James Macpherson says Kamala Harris tells lone pro-life student in crowd they were at the “wrong rally” for calling out ‘Jesus is lord’. “Talking about the war on Christianity … while Kamala Harris was promoting abortion without limits, the entire crowd erupted into loud cheers but then a lone student in the crowd … called out Jesus is lord,” Mr Macpherson said. “Instinctively and without pause, Kamala mocked him, telling him he was at the wrong rally
This post contains two video shorts, one is of a Colorado Sheriff speaking out against Harris because of the problems her border policies caused for Colorado and the USA; the second is of an Aurora, Co., council woman speaking on the same matter. [I linked my post on “Useful Idiots” because those who vote for Harris are participating in the destabilization of this nation and if they do not presently know that, they should examine what their like-minded citizens of former days have helped to usher in, to the great harm of many nations.]
The video of this post is by Pastor Sinclair Ferguson. In 5 minutes, he explains the unity of the Old and New Testaments by means of speaking of the covenants God made with men. In the process, he explained that since the fall, salvation has only been by grace. In other words, people who say, “Old Testament salvation is by law and the New Testament salvation is by grace,” seriously err. [That is, teachings like Dispensationalism, developed in the 19th century, are wrong when they propound two ways of salvation; and religions that believe they can earn their way to God, to heaven… are also wrong.]
This video shows John MacArthur at a Q & A at Grace Church. The excerpt in this post is a statement about how Harris ticket views Christ and Christians. Christians cannot vote for a party ticket that is anti-Christ….
This post contains the latest installment of John MacArthur’s sermon series: Exposing the Campaign for Immorality. The Mp3 version of his sermon is in this post and a link is provided to hear the video version. This post also contains a PDF of his sermon, the initial 3 pages of 12 are pasted with a link to the additional 9 pages, for smartphone users who would have difficulty reading a PDF on their small screens. Additionally, I provided a 9-minute excerpt for those who only want the main point, the conclusion.
The 9-minute video of this post is John MacArthur responding to the fall of Steve Lawson. Pastor MacArthur spoke about 9 minutes on numerous matters related to Lawson’s fall and the church.
In his series on Great Biblical Doctrines, this is MLJ’s second sermon on the baptism of the Spirit. Many in his congregation asked for clarification and in some cases, more information after he preached his initial sermon on this topic. It is not a typical sermon, as he reads about the experiences of several Christians of days gone by, men who wrote about experiencing the baptism of the Spirit; and he adds to those written experiences words of clarification. I think that many could get a better idea about what kind of experience constitutes the baptism of the Spirit by hearing this sermon. There is much confusion, and utter foolishness in the current church about what it means to be baptized by the Spirit. He says a little about such things in passing, but he didn’t know about what we have today. I recommend hearing the preceding sermon on the baptism of the Spirit also.
…“It is impossible for a Christian to remain in continual sin due to sanctification.” This is a freeing truth. From the moment of conversion, the Spirit of Life dwells in the believer, and they cannot be subject to the carnal. Moreover, this is a promise for all Christians, not just a blessing that some receive and others don’t. And yet, the struggle against sin is still a daily battle for followers of Christ. To help the listener better understand, Dr. Lloyd-Jones explains that from the moment of salvation, Christians are dead to sin since they have been united with Christ and His life. The Christian spirit is alive to Christ, yet their bodies are still under the bondage and dominion of sin…. [From MLJTrust’s explanation of this sermon. They also provided sermon highlight points.]
