Am I Truly Saved – John MacArthur’s Powerful Answer….

Narrative from YouTube: “In this heartfelt Q&A, Pastor John MacArthur responds to a woman named Joy who questions whether she’s truly saved. With deep compassion and biblical clarity, MacArthur reassures her that spiritual longing, love for God, and concern for salvation are evidence of God’s work in the heart—not signs of rejection. He draws from Romans 7 and Peter’s story to show that even the strongest believers struggle. MacArthur also explains the vital difference between assurance and security in salvation, offering comfort to anyone wrestling with doubt. “

The Sword of the Spirit – Martyn Lloyd-Jones

In the sermon of this post, MLJ explains what the apostle Paul meant when he called us to take the sword of the Spirit in our fight with the Evil One. Among the many things he said, he made a distinction that would nullify the ideas of many Christians and commentators in our day, he said that Paul only referred to scripture; not any words that a Charismatic or a Mystic might receive during their spiritual exercises. All those words that such people claim they heard from the Lord, are excluded…. As usual, MLJ’s words are thoroughly biblical and provide sound guidance to the Christian who is traveling the biblical WAY.

The World by Wisdom Knew not God (Remastered) – Martyn Lloyd-Jones

This sermon is very relevant, even in the 21st century. People want to find God via their own reason, that can never happen. When Moses and the apostle Paul could not do so, how can we think we might do so? “…In Corinth, false teachers were denying the miraculous events of the Bible, saying that they cannot be true because they seem unreasonable. They wanted to view Christ as a good teacher rather than as God and Savior. People continually reject the wisdom of God that is revealed in the Bible, nature, and all of history. They turn to their own brain instead of relying on the all-knowing, all-powerful God of the Bible.”

Hearing of Faith (Remastered) – Martyn Lloyd-Jones

How is a person saved? Is it through just hearing the gospel or is it through faith? The debate is a theological divide in the Christian church. …Dr. Lloyd-Jones says that there are two types of hearing: hearing that falls on the ears and hearing that moves a person to believe. Quoting the words of Isaiah, he reveals that this has always been the case.

What is Original Sin? – Got Questions dot Org

In my correspondence yesterday, the topic of original sin came up. I thought I would post on this topic because there are so many unbiblical preachers in the 21st century church that many newer Christians may not know about this doctrine. Students of the Bible come to understand it, especially if they attend a church whose standards are the Westminster Confession of Faith or the Baptist Confession of 1689….

Faith Only – Martyn Lloyd-Jones

This sermon is concerned with one of the most basic requirements of actually being a Christian. Many who profess to be Christian do not understand this basic criterion. That is, many believe they can say the ‘sinner’s prayer;’ or sign a card; or read the Bible; attend a church; be baptized…. Born-again believers do such things, but that is not what has made them a Christian. Born-again believers have faith ‘like Abraham.’ MLJ explains what that means. He also explains some typical mistakes professed Christians make.
