CULTURAL INFILTRATION OF THE CHURCH – Pastor John MacArthur

Pastor MacArthur explained that the current utopian philosophies that the west is embracing began 300 years ago with Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and those were imbibed by Marx and other influential thinkers who hated God and viewed Christianity as oppressive….

Rousseau’s believes are succinctly stated below video.

 

 

The Philosophy of Rousseau, that MacArthur referred to in the video above.

[MacArthur suggested that Marx and other thinkers whose work is currently greatly impacting western society, began with Rousseau’s unbiblical ideas.]

The following is an excerpt, link is provided below for those who would read the full post:

…Rousseau, however, went the other way. He suggested that the state of nature wasn’t all that bad, proposing that the people in it were self-sufficient, fairly solitary by choice, sympathetic to others, and peaceful. With nothing to fight over, they don’t fight much. Since morality hasn’t been invented yet, they are innocent and incapable of being malicious.

Importantly, people in the state of nature are free in that they can follow their own will all the time, and equal — the various sources of inequality haven’t been invented yet.

He argues that it is only when we move into society that human nature becomes corrupted, and many of the vices and evils we know all too well can flourish.

[The Bible states very clearly that mankind became depraved when they fell into sin, Genesis 3; and that mankind can follow his own will only when it comes to choosing which flavor of sin he will do; he cannot do righteousness via his will unless he is born again and then in submission to the Holy Spirit.]

Dr. John MacArthur is—far and away—America’s greatest Bible teacher. In 2015, I had a burning desire to understand what the Bible really meant, however, everywhere I searched, all I found was grossly undereducated men who called themselves “preachers” or “pastors” who were chiefly interested in:

1. Making money 2. Gaining popularity 3. Spreading a false gospel

It was quite obvious to me they had very little Biblical knowledge.

MacArthur, on the other hand, has a vast knowledge of the Bible and goes to great pains to explain it so articulately. I can honestly say that he changed the direction of my life. I am forever grateful to find such a wonderful teacher. Therefore, I’ve created this YouTube channel in order to propagate his accurate and thorough Biblical teachings.

I implore you to go directly to his website to learn more about the Word of God: https://www.gty.org/ Here you will find a wealth of information on virtually any subject in God’s Word. You can search by scripture, Books of the Bible, or keywords.

MacArthur is not focused on making money, unlike many false Christian preachers today. You can download his sermons for FREE! Just click on this link to go directly to his sermons.

I pray that God blesses you with a deeper understanding of the Word of God!
