I'm a fairly new Christian I'm 51 years old I came to Christ in 2011 I'm not real smart I'm kind of a hillbilly but I know this I love Jesus and I love his word and his work.
Thats what happened to me when I crawled into a church one day a broken alcoholic and asked God to help me on my knees before the cross,the miracles which followed the power and joy are without words
What a blessing it is to have knowledgeable and devoted men like Dr. Sproul and Dr. MacArthur. You can tell they're being led by the Holy Spirit because what they say resonates with the Truth God has put in each true believers hearts. i've learned so much from these men over the years and i don't believe i'd be as spiritually mature as i am without them. It's all the work of Gods' Holy Spirit and i never want to take Him for granted.
I love Sproul and MacArthur- their sincerity and devotion to God. I know they please God. I came across Sproul and found so much I did not know, especially The Reformation. All the wherefores and why’s. A reason above and beyond and it is quite an explosion of Truth. understanding serving a Living God. I am held captive in Scripture and wowed and wonder. Love them both. How Blessed I am. Praise God. ❤❤❤
How can one Bible passage convict and unite an athiest to believe in GOD, an old covenant Jew to believe Jesus Christ is their Messiah, and a Protestant to know without a shadow of a doubt which ONE CHURCH Jesus Christ established? How can a single Bible passage contain that much evidence to overwhelmingly convince each of those individual groups? It's all in the Book of Jeremiah. It contains New Covenant Prophecy and the "evidence" is clearly seen throughout 2,000 and ongoing years of history. The Book of Jeremiah was arguably written between 586-630 before Jesus Christ. Yes, 500 to 600 years before Jesus Christ even transcended down from eternity, entered our time and was born as a very "visible" and "historical" GOD. In His earthly life Jesus Christ fulfilled two very specific covenant promises that are also very "visible" throughout the course of history, evident today, and will be evident until His return. You ask what two "visible" covenant promises? Well, let's read Jeremiah 33:14-22 New Covenant Prophecy of when the Jewish Messiah would come, what He would do, and what He would establish throughout the course of history after He arrived. Per Catholic Revised Standard Version of Jeremiah 33:14-22 New Covenant Prophecy. 14 "Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I (being Jesus Christ and per John 10:30 "the Father and I are one") will fulfil the promise I made to the house of Israel and the house of Judah. 15 In those days and at that time I will cause a righteous Branch to spring forth for David; and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. 16 In those days Judah will be saved and Jerusalem will dwell securely. And this is the name by which it will be called: 'The LORD is our righteousness.' 17 "For thus says the LORD: David shall never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel, 18 and the Levitical priests shall never lack a man in my presence to offer burnt offerings, to burn cereal offerings, and to make sacrifices for ever." 19 The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah: 20 "Thus says the LORD: If you can break my covenant with the day and my covenant with the night, so that day and night will not come at their appointed time, 21 then also my covenant with David my servant may be broken, so that he shall not have a son to reign on his throne, and my covenant with the Levitical priests my ministers. 22 As the host of heaven cannot be numbered and the sands of the sea cannot be measured, so I will multiply the descendants of David my servant, and the Levitical priests who minister to me." So, where are these Davidic and Levitical GOD covenant promises stemming from Jesus Christ the Jewish Messiah you may ask? The Davidic Covenant promise is fulfilled by the Catholic Pope who sits upon the earthly throne in the Catholic Church where we see a "multiplication of decendents" on a throne with a clear 2,000 year lineage back to Jesus Christ. And, the Leviticus Priesthood covenant is fulfilled by the Catholic Church Priesthood that was established in John Chapter 13 and Chapter 20 with emphasis on verse 22-23 by Jesus Christ. Both the Davidic and Levitical GOD promises are found in the ONE HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH. Now, some intellectually dishonest This is irrefutable historical evidence for not only our very "visible" and "historical" GOD Jesus Christ, but GOD keeping His covenant promises throughout 2,000 and ongoing years. Please come join your GOD and savior Jesus Christ in the Lamb's Supper being the New Covenant Passover. Where we "thank" GOD for what He has done for us and we get to feast as ONE DIVINE SPIRITUAL FAMILY. May GOD'S speed, grace and peace be upon you to enter His Kingdom of GOD being the ONE HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH.

I love these two men, R C Sproul and John MacArthur have become some of my 5 favorite pastors that I ever heard in my short Christian life. I used to be one of the very badly and sadly deceived catholics. I was always searching for the truth of God and his word. I was deceived by catholic schools and churches and religion classes in which the teachers didn't have any idea of how to answer my questions. When I was only 12 yrs old, I almost lose some of the school years for religion class, just because I was always asking questions in the religion class. The teacher didn't like me. I was in a female catholic school in which, they were teaching me evolution in biology and science and, creation in religion class!!! That was very confusing, on top of all the questions I had about everything, the priests never wanted to talk to us and we were even scared to approach to them, if it wasn't because we were going to confess our sins! Furthermore ,we always confessed our sins, to receive the same penitence, (pray 3 holy mary, 3 holy fathers and 3 glories, or something like that) The ignorance about Jesus and about God around the world is HUGE, the absence of good pastors and teachers like R.C and John M, is HUGE. I wish I was able to meet them many years ago. Probably that could saved me or helped me earlier in life, to not make so many mistakes. I really thank God, my husband and one of my pastors. They were referring me to John M first and then to R.C. A young student pastor referred me to John and my husband to R C. I love you both and thank you so much for all you teach, for all I learn over these videos and Ligonier Ministries, from your videos and thank God, because He gave us pastors like them and gave them the knowledge to do all the things they've been giving us. Thanks R.C. ,John and,God Bless them ans Keep Then Both for more and longer time, to learn more from them. I hope I can meet them one day. Adriana
nanis - How wonderful! Glory to GOD!!! You had a tough start, so now you will have the strength to saturate yourself in the Scriptures and stay the course! Pray, read the Bible, and worship daily! Also - please pray for a revival!!!
nanis I love sound teaching with honest doctrine from God's word in His Book the Bible... Nothing, absolutely nothing compares to it... Jesus is the Word... Stay blessed in Jesus name Amen
@@kimberleerivera7062 , Protestant teachings are FULL OF CONTRADICTION. For example??? 1. Protestants preach an "invisible" and "Spiritual" Church, while they hypocritically reach deep down into gullible people's pockets for money in a very "visible" place. Why do Protestants preach an "invisible" or "Spiritual" Church??? To hide the fact and truth they have absolutely no history back to Jesus Christ or beyond a 1500'S "man" Martin Luther. 2. Protestants teach a self contradictory false teaching "Bible Alone", which ironically is found absolutely no where in the Bible. 3. Protestants say "everything has to be in the Bible to be believed". Where is that statement even in Sacred Scriptures??? Instead, what do Sacred Scriptures say??? John 21:25, 2 Thessalonians 2:15 or especially Acts 1:3. Which ONE CHURCH has these "40 days" of Jesus Christ's teachings that are not in the Bible per the Bible??? 4. Protestants say "ORAL TRADITION" is to be rejected. Why??? Because, not one "man made" Protestant denomination has history back to Jesus Christ, so they have to reject it - despite what 2 Thessalonians 2:15 clearly says. 5. Protestants say the "pillar and bulwark of TRUTH" is the Bible. 1 Timothy 3:15 clearly states "the Church" singular - meaning the ONE HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH - is the "pillar and bulwark of TRUTH", who was the Church that ultimately put the Bible together in the first place. 6. Protestants say "the Bible" is the final authority. As a result, it has led to 35,000 and growing "divisions" - as they each become their own "Pope" deciding what is correct or not. Conversely, we see Jesus Christ giving His final "authority" to resolve faith and moral disputes to His ONE and ONLY established Church being the ONE HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH per Matthew 18:17. 7. Protestants preach "Faith Alone". The Bible clearly rebukes this specific false teaching by stating in James 2:24 "NOT BY FAITH ALONE". In John 13:34, Jesus Christ commands us in the NEW COVENANT to "love", which clearly is an action or work that is needed (John 5:29, 15:12, 17, Romans 2:6, Philippians 2:12, Colossians 1:10, Acts 26:20, etc.) for salvation. 8. Protestants say the Holy Eucharist is just "symbolism", which ironically is another word not found in the Bible just like "Bible Alone". However, Jesus Christ Himself (WHO CANNOT LIE) repeats over and over in the Bible "THIS IS MY BODY....THIS IS MY BLOOD" (Matthew 26:26, Mark 14:22, Luke 22:19, John 6:51, 54-58) and is needed for salvation (John 6:54-55) or for "Death to Passover" in the NEW COVENANT PASSOVER (Luke 22:19). Jesus Christ, the "Lamb of God" (John 1:29, 1 Corinthians 5:7, 1 Peter 1:19), is the true fulfilled "forever" GOD liturgically commanded "Bread of the PRESENCE" (Leviticus 24:5-9). 9. Protestants say Matthew 23:9 "call no man father" is an indictment against the Catholic Church priests being called "Father", while they hypocritically call their own biological father's "father". In that Matthew 23:9 statement of Jesus Christ's, Protestants don't understand Jesus was using a hyperbole teaching emphasizing not to get caught up in honors or titles that can detract from proper worship due to our Heavenly "Father". Proof??? Judges 17:10, 18:19. What did GOD allow His old covenant priesthood to be called??? Philem 10 and especially 1 Corinthians 4:15. What did Catholic St. Paul consider himself in the New Covenant??? 10. Protestants say "no statues" or "pictures" as they do not understand we have moved from an old covenant "invisible" GOD to a New Covenant "visible" GOD (Colossians 1:15-23) whom "adopted" us into His Family (Galatians 4:4-7) through "water (Baptism) and Spirit(Laying of Hands)" (John 3:5). If GOD is now our Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ our King Brother, then who logically would be our Queen Mother??? John 19:27 and Revelation 12:1-6, 17. Per Revelation 12:17, whose children are we really??? Got any statues or pictures of your family??? 11. Protestants say "no man" can forgive sins. However, in the old covenant GOD clearly used ordained "men", the Leviticus Priesthood, to forgive sins (Leviticus 5:5-6, Numbers 5:5-9). In Matthew 16:19, 18:18, and specifically explained in John 20:21-23 what same "power" did Jesus Christ give to His ONE and ONLY established Church being the ONE HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH or to the NEW COVENANT ordained "men" of GOD??? 12. Protestants say the Biblical "Harlot" is the Catholic Church. But, GOD calls who the harlot to the nations in Ezekiel 23:30: "you have played the harlot with the nations and have polluted yourself with their idols". GOD and the prophets repeatedly called the old covenant Jews the harlot for committing adultery and idolatry in GOD'S eyes. 13. Protestants accuse the Catholic Church as "man made" or "pagan". But, what does clear history and the Bible (Matthew 16:19) say??? www.newadvent.org/cathen/12272b.htm The irony and contradiction here is each and every single Protestant denomination (35,000 and growing divisions) is truly "man made" all stemming from a 1500's "man" Martin Luther. For instance, Protestant history can easily be revealed like the Seventh Day Adventist denomination was established by a "man" in Battle Creek, MI in 1863AD. 14. Catholics persecuted and killed millions??? What is the TRUTH??? www.themichigancatholic.org/2016/11/inquisition-50-68-million-killed-church/ www.newadvent.org/cathen/11703a.htm Protestants even persecuted and killed Catholic women, and one simply for harboring Catholic priests !!! www.britannica.com/biography/Saint-Margaret-Clitherow So yes, there are many contradictions and outright lies in "man made" Protestantism.
@@berniebrennan1221 , PLEASE READ VERY CAREFULLY AS IF YOUR ETERNAL “LIFE” DEPENDED ON IT In the Book of Hebrews Chapter 10, in context, the author was talking to “baptized” Christians (Hebrews 10:22) telling them to not be “neglecting to meet together” in “the Church” - being the ONE HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH. Why “the Church”??? ***Hebrews **10:26**-29 “For IF WE SIN DELIBERATELY after receiving knowledge of the truth, THERE NO LONGER REMAINS A SACRIFICE FOR SINS, BUT A FEARFUL PROSPECT OF JUDGMENT, AND A FURY OF FIRE WHICH WILL CONSUME THE ADVERSARIES………..HOW MUCH MORE PUNISHMENT DO YOU THINK WILL BE DESERVED BY THE MAN WHO HAS SPURNED THE SON OF GOD, AND PROFANED THE BLOOD OF THE COVENANT BY WHICH HE HAS SANCTIFIED, AND OUTRAGED THE SPIRIT OF GRACE”.*** What does Sacred Scriptures clearly say “IF WE SIN DELIBERATELY” or willfully break any of the commandments whether the old (10 Commandments) or NEW (Laws of LOVE or refusing to LOVE as Christ commands per John 13:34)??? If “THERE NO LONGER REMAINS A SACRIFICE FOR SINS, BUT A FEARFUL PROSPECT OF JUDGMENT”, then how does one obtain reconciliation with GOD again??? We must examine the old covenant to fully understand the NEW COVENANT. In Leviticus 5:5-6 and Numbers 5:5-9 we understand what an old covenant Jew had to do to receive GOD's forgiveness. Additionally, GOD in the Books of Leviticus and Numbers any time personal “sin” is even mentioned you will read over and over again “THUS THE PRIEST SHALL MAKE ATONEMENT FOR A MAN’S SINS AND IT WILL BE FORGIVEN” (Lev 4:20, 4:26, 4:31,4:35, 5:6, 5:10, 5:13, 5:16, 5:18, 6:7, 7:7, 12:8, 14:18, 14:19, 14:20, 14:29, 14:31, 15:15, 15:30, 16:32, 16:33, 19:22 Num. 6:11,15:25, and 15:28). In the old covenant, GOD clearly uses ordained “men”, the Leviticus Priesthood, to administer His forgiveness. Now, does GOD keep His WORD and covenant promises??? GOD promises to have a perpetual priesthood per His covenant in Numbers 25:12-13 and Malachi 2:4-7 and has WORDS of “forever” in Exodus 29:7-9, 40:15, and 1 Chronicles 23:13. Then, GOD promises to have a perpetual priesthood in Jeremiah 33:14-22 NEW COVENANT PROPHECY. And, in context of “gathering the nations” in Isaiah 66:18 GOD states in Isaiah 66:21 “some of them also I will take for priests”, meaning no longer based on Levi tribal lineage in the NEW COVENANT. In John Chapter 13, we see Jesus Christ fulfilling His Father’s Levi Covenant promise and Malachi 3:3 prophecy, when He sits down in the upper room “purifying” the NEW COVENANT PRIESTHOOD with a “washing”. This “washing” was a “forever” priestly liturgical GOD command in Exodus 30:21- in order to perform any altar work or sacrifice. What “same” power does the Son of GOD give to His ONE and ONLY established Church or “the Church” per Matthew 16:19, 18:18 and specifically explained to the NEW COVENANT PRIESTHOOD by Jesus in John 20:21-23??? In 2 Corinthians 5:18-20 St. Paul describes what Jesus Christ did was He “GAVE US THE MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION” and concluded “SO WE ARE AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST”. An “ambassador” wields what kind of power as an “official representative” of Christ or more specifically explained in “the Church” as “persona Christi”??? Please come or return to your real home and be “reconciled” to “the Church” HIS ONE BODY (Ephesians 4:4-6). What did Jesus Christ create, pray for in John 17:21-23 and die for??? If you really LOVE Jesus Christ, then you will respond to His prayer and join the “ONENESS” that He created. The “Lamb of GOD” wants to unite with you in the NEW COVENANT PASSOVER (Luke 22:19) in His ONE and ONLY established Church, so we all can be “perfectly ONE”. May GOD richly bless you on your journey.
One True Faith sorry to tell you but I grew up Catholic and saw how that church did so many bad things including sodomy, money laundering and more, including a priest in the family that only care about money and idolatry of all kind of idols and some of his community priests that searched for men and little boys for sex. The pope is changing the Lords Prayer, popes invented the limbo and purgatory and they killed many for translating the Bible so we all could read it. Sorry but you need to study and learn more about history and like it or not, these men 👆🏻have been teaching and studying for life, how long have you? I believe what the Bible says and not in anyone that wants to twist it including roman catholic apostolic. Btw did you know who translated the Bible for us? It was Luther and then in other languages by “priests” from Catholic and all of them were Catholic and all of them persecuted by their own church and even killed by them. God Help Us all and Stop the division and just keep giving us discernment of whom we have to learn from and who to listen. GBY and save you too.
I recently became reformed in my theology earlier this year and my mind was changed and the revelation of it all predestination and election was just amazing to me, Jesus is so good that He would open my eyes and the treasure I have with knowing this has transformed me, gave me a deeper understanding of God and a greater fear of the Lord and now I see the sovereignty of God and that wasn’t taught in the church we went to nor was predestination or election. Was a Pentecostal church and a lot of prosperity gospel teaching mixed with salvation by the blood of Jesus but there was mingled in there with a lot of heresies and God brought me out and over the last few years and this year recently changed my life to a biblical Christian life and not a denominational Christian life
God bless these men always. What beacons of spiritual strength they are to us. As long as I've studied Reformed Theology, there are *no videos* by either one of these two brothers that I *can't* learn from. They are true champions of the faith! Thank you brothers, for ALL that you do!
you seem to have swallowed the lies of MacArthur. The Catholic Catechism ""Worship is reserved for the Godhead alone" (Father Son and Holy Spirit) Catholics have been saying for 2000 years that salvation is only through Jesus Christ -- All sacraments are prayers to and gifts from Christ. Mary the Saints Our Priests and other Holy people can all help us but it is only through Christ that we are saved. If you want to know what Catholics believe go to "Catholic Answers" not someone like MacArthur who has a track record of lies against Gods Holy Catholic Church .
@@1234poppycat Oh stop it "deacon". That comment sounded so full of jealousy. As for Catholicism, some of us are actually educated about it. The doctrines of the catholic church aren't even interesting to debate anymore. Catholicism is for people who have no idea how to figure out how to read a scripture, or old Italians who are only catholic because they think it means they're more Italian. Please. If you cannot elevate yourself to a higher level, that's on you. But don't insult my statements when you're in a kindergarten church that no one even bothers with anymore.
@@faithafterdark7801 No way would I be jealous of MacArthur and his lies about Catholicism. It is funny that they have awarded themselves doctorates when they are like naïve undergraduates !! Your funny claim that the 1 billion Catholics are inconsequential whilst we outnumber all protestants in their 40 000 churches / sects .. I could easily defeat MacArthur and his cronies in any debate on the bible
@@1234poppycat You know what? That response was so cringe-provoking that I really can't even find the words to appropriately respond. Referring to Ministers of the gospel and world renowned theologians as "cronies"? Suggesting that they would even take 3 minutes to debate some Catholic who is more concerned about how many of you there are than how corrupt you are? Is this a joke? Nearly half of your people think gay marriages should be accepted and women should be priests. You call that a group of people who is biblically educated? More people leave the Catholic church every year than they actually attract. I'm actually embarrassed for you.
@@faithafterdark7801 1 They are not ministers of the Gospel when they lie and try to lead the gullible away from Gods Catholic Church. 2 The Catholic Church does not support gay marriage but many of your protestant churches do !! Yes I am in favour of women priests ... If you were to read your bible you would find nothing against this ! 4 Across the World the Catholic faith is growing & in the west we are attracting the biblically educated and generally intelligent ( ex UK PM Tony Blair US ex pastor Dr Scott Hahn etc .. In fact 1/4 of ordained priests in my Archdiocese over the last 10 years are ex protestant ministers ) 5 Be embarrassed for yourself in your fake church as you support lies of the Hate preachers - I have come from Protestantism (married in a Baptist Church decades ago ) I know and now can never leave Gods Catholic Church
39:50 to 40:40. These were the most powerful, affirming, consoling words I have ever heard a pastor speak. We see , idolize, believe, envy, and marvel at the Saul to Paul conversions. But nobody bats an eye at the hundreds of thousands of people who slowly grow and conform to Christ over the course of their lives. These we ignore. But I think it is the NORM that slow, steady, blissful change. And I fretted over my own slow growth over the years. Thank you Dr MacArthur for reassuring me it is okay to conform to Christ at my own pace.
Bless you all! Thank you and to the late Dr Sproul and Dr MaCarthur for leading me into the Word. Praise Jesus Christ for saving a wretch like me. All the glory to him, and I keep being humbled. These men of God are a gift and a testament to His glory! Our Lord God is Holy, Holy, Holy.
I see two elderly men not understanding their continued failings. They focus on the split hairs of Christianity rather than trying to come together and giving one saving message. How can we proclaim the Gospel to the World when we spend more of our time trying to find minor points of error among other Christians … the Reformation opened a Pandora's box. Luther envisaged a single church in each country. We have one Catholic Church and 40 000 protestant churches...
This is my first time to listen 👂 to both gentlemen and pastors. Yes I now know Paster Sproul, Is with our Lord.I love you both and Thank you isn’t enough. What a gift to be with all who love the Trinty .🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
And this is why I love Jmac, you helped me understand the gospel, as someone with a legalistic upbringing a teacher like jmac shaped my understanding of the gospel entirely. God bless you sir
Manny Sanchez Sadly RC is gone, but in heaven, for sure. We still have John, but he doesn't preach as much. Rick Warren, and Joel Osteen, are all over, everywhere, and it's quite frightening. The difference between these two men, and all the rest is staggering. I find it really hard to be a Christian. Everyone is so mean. Saying ''Merry Christmas" instead of " Happy Holidays'', you get disciplined. It's so hard to love people, like never before, especially, when people will throw you under the bus, and I just have to bite my tongue. Praise and Worship is scary, All the PCA Church's in Miami have all succumbed to to the watered down Gospel. These two men, you can really see Christ in them every time. If their messages were not around, I think I would be lost forever. I don't behave well, but I have a serious learning Disability, which causes meltdowns, and I'm. Never sure. I can't seem to be transformed, and I really want to be, but am do discouraged. I take care of my mother, with Dementia, and I just want to die. I listen to John and RC, which help somewhat, but maybe I'm just mentally Disturbed. I want yo be really transformed, but not God's elect.
@@kathyurrely6336 Prayed for you. Hoping all has been well with you having our Emmanuel by your side, giving you strength and wisdom from His unlimited riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Blessings! ❤️
+spaniardviii I believed that my salvation was solely my responsibility and that I received it by my own decision to accept Jesus as my personal savior. Now I believe that God chose me and that I had no ability to come to him without his first drawing me to him.
+Candy Harding The Bible teaches both. You cannot pick one over the other. Personally to me it seems that your still a little confuse. If you choose one over the other sadly to say that without you knowing it you are denying part of scripture. Either you believe in both what the Bible reveals or you will denying part of scripture. You must learn to harmonize two things that might seem to be conflicting with one another, which in reality is not. Understand it as the whole Bible reveals it. Please, don't take this the wrong way I'm a brother in Christ to you and I do care or else I wouldn't spend my time typing this. :) 1. Your responsibility: Luke 13:34 "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing. Ezekiel 18:23 Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked?" This is the declaration of the Lord GOD. "Instead, don't I take pleasure when he turns from his ways and lives? 1 Timothy 2:4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. 1 Timothy 4:10 To this end we labor and strive, because we have set our hope on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, and especially of those who believe. 2. Chosen or elected by God before the world began: Ephesians 1:4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him In love 2 Thess. 2:13 But we should always give thanks to God for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and faith in the truth. Ephesians 2:10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them. Romans 8:29-30 For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren; and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He justified, He also glorified.
I am so indebted to these faithful preachers who have truly opened my thought process of what it really means to be a follower Christ. So so grateful. Thank you God 🙌
I was Babtistized by Pastor Elvee at Grace Community Church at age 16. John was a counselor at Hume Lake while we were enjoying summer camp.....1967. John has always been a Great inspiration in wanting to learn about the value of my life through the deep study of the Word. I love the Word and continue to be inspired through John McArthur's ministry to learn more of what God is saying and meaning in His Word. What a wonderful and great Priveledge it is to have Johnny Mac teach us about God's Word! Hi dedication to help us understand the Word is a Monumental honor to his life here on earth.. I am nothing but GRATEFUL for his Ministry!! He shows us that the Greatest Honor and Priveledge in life is to be better walking and following in the footsteps of Jesus Christ....our Saviour, Lord and King. So very Grateful for the love given to the study of the Word with the help of the Holy Spirits, through John McArthur.
Amen! What a tremendous impact these two gentlemen have had over the years on so many people for God's glory! May He continue to use them and bless them for years to come!
I see two elderly men not understanding their continued failings. They focus on the split hairs of Christianity rather than trying to come together and giving one saving message. How can we proclaim the Gospel to the World when we spend more of our time trying to find minor points of error among other Christians … the Reformation opened a Pandora's box Luther envisaged a single church in each country the failing is that we have one Catholic Church and 40 000 protestant churches...
@@1234poppycat You don’t even measure up to either of their tiny toes on their feet. You have no appreciation nor respect for the work and gifts these two men have been to the gospel. To not see and realize what the lord has done through them is to be spiritually blind. Ask God to open your eyes so you can know the truth not religion, because religion is a custom made suit and you’re wearing it.
These men are men of Christian truths & integrity and has helped many many Christians new & old to grow in the Faith of Christ and I am certainly one of them...Gods continued blessings on both families!
Their seriousness about Scripture is admirable. Solid preaching is very important and I'd agree that there's too much experientialism and sentimentalism in preaching today.
l just found out about Johnny Mac, because he wouldn't close his church! l cant believe l've lived all these years not knowing of his preaching! l really like it! May The Lord Bless both of these men! Wonderful servants indeed!

To interpret minor issues in different ways, not for salvation issue, is not saying they are not United, they are great friends and both are saved under their gospel beliefs. I love to hear their diversities and yet respect and love for each other in Christ, we learn how to reason and search for ourselves with the Holy Spirit guiding us ,what is meaningful to believe and express as part of our creed. Thank you pastors for sharing your biblical ,different at times, research and interpretations on biblical topics.
It is simply such amazing grace 🙏🙏that the LORD JESUS gave us CHRIST loving men like these pastors and a few others, to teach and guide us to the truth ❤ thank you LORD.
I have started reading books by John Mc Arthur and bought and read every single one. Now I started listening to sermons on U Tube by ligonier ministeries and treasure all sermons by Pastor John and the late RCSproul. And I am thankful for being able to listen to them, the Calvinistic dogma they support.
It will be a pleasure and honor and blessing and joy to meet Rc in heaven, just hug him strongly and saying thank you and bless our God that used you greatly
Oh Father God, freedom knowing you've adopted me confounds my mind; I am exceedingly grateful for Christ Jesus and in Him I am renewed and full of joy and love for everyone created in Your image, and am also exceedingly afraid I'll not be found in good soil. Thank you always for everything that is, everything that was and if anything for me, what's too come. I have nothing without You Lord and will serve You in the Way, Truth and Life and am freaked out by your power and ridiculous awesomeness of your Grace in my life. Forever in your Son's name, Yeshua.
What two amazing men God uses, why? Because they use the Word of God only, simple answer. There are many pastors out there do not do that. I have been praying for years for the truth and I am blessed that Christ uses these two men to teaches us the Word of the Truth, The Bible. I would like to ask every Christians out there, please focused on the Word of God, not feel good sermons about living a better life but the sermons that full fill our soul. That only comes from the truth of God. And these two men are good example.
Nothing to do with "reformed". Sproul said, and I quote him, "the problem with the church today is that we don't know who God is." Really? Neither did he nor any other so-called "Reformed Brother", better said, these CALVINISTS are nothing short of being part of a cult. If you think I"m dead wrong, please define God in three words. Thanks.
@@solitarypawn5076 here’s your 3 word definition of God; GOD IS SOVEREIGN.....here’s 3 words to define you; MAN IS NOT.......... you battle with regeneration precedes faith that we hold to which is the confrontation we face most from Pentecostals. If God is not totally sovereign then God is not totally God! Your free will doesn’t make God God, nothing makes God, God is was and will always be God freely upon His own asity ..... 🌷🌷🌷
@@daianaivan9638 So do I, what a blessing these two men of God have been to me and millions of others. Thankfully the Lord has provided audio and video formats such that we can continue to hear their exposition of His holy word.
Margaret Macleod, How do you know that they preach the truth? Calvinism is only half the truth.... Election and Predestination' is indeed a biblical doctrine because it is in the scriptures... However John Calvin failed to understand the entirety of this doctrine.... He had known half of it only and added his own understanding to this doctrine of 'Election and Predestination'.... So, Calvinism is Truth mixed with Lies and the it is more dangerous than lies alone.... I have asked several Calvinists this question, which none of them were able to answer, because it was not taught by John Calvin who himself did not know the answer.... My Question : How did God Choose those whom He will save? Surely God have some basis for His choice.... He did not just pick them at random.... The Answer is: Of course God choose His own children... It is in the scriptures that there are two groups of people in this world, 'The Sheep and the goats' or 'The Wheat and the Tares'.... In the Parable of 'The wheat and Tares', Jesus Himself explained who are these two groups of people, and where did they come from... The 'Sheep or Wheat' are the true children of God, and they will be saved... The 'goats or tares' are of the devil and they are damned..... The Sheep or Wheat are the True children of God not only by creation but by HEREDITY.... I can prove this to you if you are interested.... The Sheep inherited the character of God, The goats inherited the character of the devil..... After the Fall of Adam and Eve, All the children of God are affected and inherited the fallen nature of Adam and Eve, they did not inherit the sin but the sinful nature. That's why Jesus came to give His life for ransom to save the Elect.... (hope this clarifies you) The elects were fallen and they need to be saved.... There is no OSAS in the scriptures, it is the wrong understanding of Calvin the murderer... All the elect will definitely be saved, not one will be lost.... John 17:12(KJV) ''While I was with them in the world, I kept them in your name: those that you gave me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the '''son of perdition'''; that the scripture might be fulfilled.'' (the son of perdition is Judas, he is not the child of God, but the son of perdition, a goat) Example of Goats : Cain, Judas, some of the pharisees, pharaoh in the time of Moses.... Example of Sheep : Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon, The apostles except Judas.... Note: The difference between the Sheep and the goats.... The Sheep though they are in the fallen state, they still love God and desire to please God, Not the goats, they don't love God but only their selves... Look at Cain, he has no respect to God, he faced God with anger and blamed God for his sin of killing Abel.... How about John 3:16 ? John 3:16(NIV) ''For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.'' ''Whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life''==>>Only the Elect will believe because they are the True Children of God and Have the character of God.... The goats are of the devil, they hate God and don't have the ability to repent... Look at Judas, he prefer to hang himself than to repent of what he has done.... ''Go unto all the world and preach the gospel to all creatures''==>>Only the Sheep will believe the gospel and repent..... How will we know if we are the true children of God who inherited the character of God like David, and Joseph, and the apostles, except Judas? I did not found any scripture for that, probably there is, but I have not find it... But I can give you a clue: If when you hear the words of God especially about the character of Jesus, and you want to know more, When there is a hunger in your Heart for the Truth of God's words, it is a good sign that you can be the chosen one... If you find yourself to be affectionate to the less fortunate people, If you can easily forgive others, these are signs that you are one of the elect and a true child of God.... May God bless you Margaret through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.....
I hope and pray that the black church gets more leaders like these men. We need true teachers of the bible. Many great Black ministers are teaching the truth of God one in particular is Bishop Omega in Philly. RIP both MacArthur and Sproul you are missed
Transformation does take time by renewing your mind. If you don’t get the right teaching, you can still get into trouble. That is why right teaching is so important. God is so good He will bring you back every time. I’m so thankful.
So we have "New Reformed" as if Christ needs rebranding ... many seem to have swallowed the lies of MacArthur and Sproul . The Catholic Catechism ""Worship is reserved for the Godhead alone" (Father Son and Holy Spirit) Catholics have been saying for 2000 years that salvation is only through Jesus Christ -- All sacraments are prayers to and gifts from Christ. Mary the Saints Our Priests and other Holy people can all help us but it is only through Christ that we are saved. If you want to know what Catholics believe go to "Catholic Answers" not someone like MacArthur who has a track record of lies against Gods Holy Catholic Church .
These are some of my favorite videos. Questions and answers offer up unique insights that I myself never arrive at when I read the scriptures by myself. I just am not as far long as these men that’s prolly it
R C once again hits the nail on the head. It’s not first about clean living nor about purpose nor about our wellbeing. It begins and ends with Jesus, His person, who He is and what He showed and taught us. We can only love Him and abide in Him if we know Him. Everything else follows from this fundamental. “I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me YOU CAN DO NOTHING.” John 15:5 ESV
The late Keith Green had a song called Oh Lord Your Beautiful. The lyrics kind of go with your thought here: Oh Lord, you're beautiful, Your face is all I see, For when your eyes are on this child, Your grace abounds to me Oh Lord, you're beautiful, Your face is all I see, For when your eyes are on this child Your grace abounds to me I want to take your word and shine it all around But first help me to just, live it Lord And when I'm doing well, help me to never seek a crown For my reward is giving glory to you Oh Lord, please light the fire That once burned bright and clean Replace the lamp of my first love That burns with holy fear I want to take your word and shine it all around But first help me to just, live it Lord And when I'm doing well, help me to never seek a crown For my reward is giving glory to you Oh Lord, you're beautiful Your face is all I see For when your eyes are on this child Your grace abounds to me Oh Lord, you're beautiful Your face is all I see For when your eyes are on......
@@lilporshe That is what I also understand. I believe in the Gift if Grace towards us. Saved by Grace through faith which is the Gift of God, and not of works lest anyone should boast". Simple truth of God's great Love and Salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord.
I sure did agree with John MacAurther on the lack of knowledge of the Bible in the church. Lack of knowledge of Pastors concerning God and the Bible. I thank you God for letting me find these men of God that know the word of God and that has brought me closer to God. Praise God praise God !

@@jdubs325 These two individuals are what you call "Reformed". They have not reformed anything, but rather both of them have put God in a box where He can be understood ONLY through the Bible, to the point that the Bible becomes the mediator between God and man.

Precision of preaching is awesome, both such devotion to The Holy God the Son, The life of Jesus is The Gospel and the Holy Spirit, the Trinity. The TRUTH ACCORDING TO THE GOSPEL, the Christ sits at the Right Hand Side of the Father and God’s giving Authority over everything in the Universe.

I have been so inspired listening to you godly men. I am so frustrated with being tossed here an there..By the time I came to Christ ..which I really believe I was saved in my younger years ..an God was with me through my truggles of going my own way..Really at the time I was ignorant to the salvation of my gift if Grace..I was raised in a presbeterian church..an I didnr have much Bible study at all..BUT let me tell you for all that I went through an was even married to a Muslim..I remained In Jesus ..why? not by me..He stayed with me..he knew I would come to him later in life an when I did...Boy was I Lala Lala land..not like someone chasing spiritual high..I DIDNT have to chase it..it came to me and I received it..an the night I did..I had been starting wanting something from T God an I wanted to question him now..I was ready for answers and when I wrote on line the simple question..who is Jesus? is he the Son of God? AND ALL THIS INFORMATION I WAS READING ..I was astonished! I mean spiritual experience tears fell down on my phone as I scrolled through reading..Saying I knew that I knew that oh my goodness Jesus I knew that..an I repented an cried saying please forgive me..I need you..I love you and I remember what you taught me in my youth. I love you. And I know I was born again that night..I believed and Then I received what I was believing. Conviction of several issues came over me even at that moment that I knew was wrong before ..we know right from wrong by the law but for this moment I really felt sorry and wanted forgiveness. This night was the most wonderful night of my life ..an The conviction was a good thing ..I DIDNT feel in trouble or like a pharisee was judging me..but I wanted to see and feel this. Never had felt this sorrow before but I was only sorry before ..Well I was caught or so be sorry ..maintain good in social situations..Or looking outside to feel better or fix my inner pain wounds and struggles had now become I want you Jesus I want to know you all about you..an I also went not long after feeling GREAT FEAR FOR the enemy was starting warfare with me..I was still stuck in a particular sin..that I was practically begging Jesus to just make it vanish ..haha or make me not want it well I had to go through a long journey to understand this war with flesh an spirit..I even at times felt same bad thought coming making me think I was a blasphemy..it was horrid the one day ..I read about just simply pray in the blood of Jesus demand any demon spirit i carry or coming to harm me to go now! in Jesus name..an God is my witness .I woke up the next morning the attack was gone. IT WAS AMAZING..I WAS IN JESUS WILL AND DEMAND THE DEMON LEAVE OT HAS TO GO. BUT MY sin I hung to..I have done the same but in all reality my nature of desire to this sin still desired it..Until the day I am done an an his will ..this to me is obey I TELL YOU..GOD MOVES..I change within and I feel a baggage if a load is lifted off. such a beautiful freedom an joy comes over me. An peace an its in these times God makes me wise..An reveals so much to me..no way can I do these things or understand nor did I ever want to read search or seeks for hours before haha ..I had learning disability..I could learn an master the moon lol whatever that means..but it took all of me an had to almost be abnormal indulgence to mastermind or practice something..An I had no more fear of shyness like before either..Nor was I afraid to share the gospel..I spoke it whenever I could..I coudnt stop ..I did slow down lol but Now if I even go my own way fir a period ..God forbid..he has so much patience with me..he keeps me. I even felt a little bit that I was just going among sharing an doing to do what I am to do..but I was losing my longing an desire .but God knew it was bothering me..I start to share tube story of Rachel Jacob an Leah to another I felt needed..an I Was one needing the message ...I was like oh wow Jesus thank you ..an I pray to continue what he started in me..I want to always abide an remain. scary thought to lose or my salvation stolen from me!! Jesus crushes that devil in the end through my trials an tribulation I must go threw ..so much peace an joy I never had..and I would rather an most days be studying reading singing sharing then anything I could ever ...God keep my zeal always ..without Jesus my literal breath of life..I dont want life now of dont have my Jesus..to live for what? this world dont look so wonderful nor man made psychology..nor watch corrupt or listen to corrupt music ..all that interest left..if I do dabble..I will say to myself.. How dumb Stacy Jesus took you put of that sinfulness quit playing around the devil come an snare me fast. an he will too...intiser to do more sin..then behave sinful..its just so ugly an unclean now..I dont want it. I pray for my daughter to come like I did to Jesus ..I sow the seed every chance I get an leave the rest for Jesus .. which I dont always do with people..I want them to have so much it frustrates me..why? I love them now..and really could o say I believe in Jesus if my most longing desire an pray that I must believe by faith an trust he will save my Sarah. My other daughter is Christian but been taught from beginning g ...Sarah however when I was not born again an ignorant living secular..she too picked this up. But she will be picked up this time by my Lord Jesus ..Amen. I can't believe I just shared so much..haha lol .funny. .Thank you again ..For am not tossed nor confused by sneaky twisting or too much radical they have now..it really scares me..i love to praise..but not all over the place like loopy doopy. I want mature honest Shepherds that care ..Amen that be you all. love u an God Bless too..❤💕❤
It pains me to see these men age and RC with the oxygen. Praise God for the internet, a lot of great recordings, books, dvds, etc. so they can really be with us for a long long time. A lot of good young ones coming up behind them, but I can't imagine anyone being as well read and studied as these two.
I feel the same way. I am a new follower of their teaching and have watched videos of them when they were younger. I pray they are on this earth for many more years.
mzimmerman12 I'm sure their greatest desire is to be with the Lord. As Paul said, "To live is Christ, to die is Gain." I know I'm so ready to be Home with the LORD and I'm very happy. Great husband, six wonderful children. Six grandchildren. I get to travel. Life is good. Heaven will be infinitely better beyond our wildest dreams!!
I would advise y'all keep a copy of this and go over it several times. This is pure gold Biblical teaching that, as referred to by both these men of God, is so missing in our churches these days.Not since I was at theological college have I heard such excellent teaching and even there, I don't ever recall being taught that 'Regeneration precedes the New Birth'. That Regeneration must take place before we can receive the gift of faith! Dead as we are to God in our sinful states, we are unable to receive from God. Therefore, He brings about our New Birth and THEN we can receive the wonderful free gift of God's amazing faith, Praise God. [23:40] I have only recently discovered these two tremendous men of God. Such wonderful advocates of the Gospel' Expository preachers that are so rare these days. They make most other preachers appear so shallow in their teaching. And then I learn that R C Sproul went to be with the Lord December 14th 2017. I am confident he is now enjoying the frut of his labour for the Lord, as all good and faithful servants will receive. Meanwhile, I will glean the net for all the teachings I can find from these guys. Thank you for sharing.
mike jduk, [[ That Regeneration must take place before we can receive the gift of faith! Dead as we are to God in our sinful states, we are unable to receive from God. Therefore, He brings about our New Birth and THEN we can receive the wonderful free gift of God's amazing faith, Praise God. ]] Can you please support with bible verse this new teaching that you have learned? If you cannot find a verse that can support it, reject that teaching....
Teaching the bible is one thing and its an awesome thing, its when they start flipping the word of God to their liking....If your not in the bible completely and just reading books of intellectual men then yu will not recognize it. nah I'm good my teacher is the Holy spirit. Ill sit under men that teach word not to their liking many ppl worship these men. I've listen to them all my favorite was McCarther but when I really started learning and him fliping I said I'm done with him.
They were encouraging about their desire for the truth. Then the wheels fell off with the idea the we are unable to do anything about our salvation until the Spirit acts on our hearts. Keep reading guys.
I'm a fairly new Christian I'm 51 years old I came to Christ in 2011 I'm not real smart I'm kind of a hillbilly but I know this I love Jesus and I love his word and his work.
Amen! Blessed be the Almighty God, Lord and Savior Jesus the Christ. Knowledge puffs up but love builds up!
1 Corinthians 8:1-3
Then you're on The Way my brother.
See you in heaven ❤
Welcome to the family. I recommend to you books by AW Tozer. He’s a great man of God that helped me. Start with Tozer’s “The Knowledge of the Holy”.
God loves hillbillies too. 😁😁
Man, two of my heroes right there. Thank you Lord for blessing us with these men.
MacArthur and Sporul. Can't think of a better double act for the faith in the last hundred years.
Thats what happened to me when I crawled into a church one day a broken alcoholic and asked God to help me on my knees before the cross,the miracles which followed the power and joy are without words
Same here. Pure miracle and touch from Jesus
Amen, Bruce
Amen, Brian
I was dead in spirit not that long ago. He's mighty to save.
Thanks for your testimonies, very encouraging.
Praising God that He found you, may you continue to grow in His love and wisdom! Stay in His Word, He meets us there!
What a blessing it is to have knowledgeable and devoted men like Dr. Sproul and Dr. MacArthur. You can tell they're being led by the Holy Spirit because what they say resonates with the Truth God has put in each true believers hearts. i've learned so much from these men over the years and i don't believe i'd be as spiritually mature as i am without them. It's all the work of Gods' Holy Spirit and i never want to take Him for granted.
No other pastors compare. These men of God are the standard for me. Their espounding and praise of God bring me ever closer to Christ. Amen
Amen
Such incredible men of God! -How God has used both John MacArthur and RC Sproul to shepherd the church prior to His return!
Jesus is our Sheppard, the head of the church
This is such good stuff...I will listen to it again and again. Love the answers that John M and RC Sproul give.
I love Sproul and MacArthur- their sincerity and devotion to God. I know they please God. I came across Sproul and found so much I did not know, especially The Reformation. All the wherefores and why’s. A reason above and beyond and it is quite an explosion of Truth. understanding serving a Living God. I am held captive in Scripture and wowed and wonder. Love them both. How Blessed I am. Praise God. ❤❤❤
I love these preachers I’m so crying how I miss RC and love both. My tears are burning my eyes love always 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Me too
How can one Bible passage convict and unite an athiest to believe in GOD, an old covenant Jew to believe Jesus Christ is their Messiah, and a Protestant to know without a shadow of a doubt which ONE CHURCH Jesus Christ established? How can a single Bible passage contain that much evidence to overwhelmingly convince each of those individual groups?
It's all in the Book of Jeremiah. It contains New Covenant Prophecy and the "evidence" is clearly seen throughout 2,000 and ongoing years of history.
The Book of Jeremiah was arguably written between 586-630 before Jesus Christ. Yes, 500 to 600 years before Jesus Christ even transcended down from eternity, entered our time and was born as a very "visible" and "historical" GOD. In His earthly life Jesus Christ fulfilled two very specific covenant promises that are also very "visible" throughout the course of history, evident today, and will be evident until His return. You ask what two "visible" covenant promises? Well, let's read Jeremiah 33:14-22 New Covenant Prophecy of when the Jewish Messiah would come, what He would do, and what He would establish throughout the course of history after He arrived.
Per Catholic Revised Standard Version of Jeremiah 33:14-22 New Covenant Prophecy.
14 "Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I (being Jesus Christ and per John 10:30 "the Father and I are one") will fulfil the promise I made to the house of Israel and the house of Judah.
15 In those days and at that time I will cause a righteous Branch to spring forth for David; and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
16 In those days Judah will be saved and Jerusalem will dwell securely. And this is the name by which it will be called: 'The LORD is our righteousness.'
17 "For thus says the LORD: David shall never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel,
18 and the Levitical priests shall never lack a man in my presence to offer burnt offerings, to burn cereal offerings, and to make sacrifices for ever."
19 The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
20 "Thus says the LORD: If you can break my covenant with the day and my covenant with the night, so that day and night will not come at their appointed time,
21 then also my covenant with David my servant may be broken, so that he shall not have a son to reign on his throne, and my covenant with the Levitical priests my ministers.
22 As the host of heaven cannot be numbered and the sands of the sea cannot be measured, so I will multiply the descendants of David my servant, and the Levitical priests who minister to me."
So, where are these Davidic and Levitical GOD covenant promises stemming from Jesus Christ the Jewish Messiah you may ask? The Davidic Covenant promise is fulfilled by the Catholic Pope who sits upon the earthly throne in the Catholic Church where we see a "multiplication of decendents" on a throne with a clear 2,000 year lineage back to Jesus Christ. And, the Leviticus Priesthood covenant is fulfilled by the Catholic Church Priesthood that was established in John Chapter 13 and Chapter 20 with emphasis on verse 22-23 by Jesus Christ.
Both the Davidic and Levitical GOD promises are found in the ONE HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH.
Now, some intellectually dishonest
This is irrefutable historical evidence for not only our very "visible" and "historical" GOD Jesus Christ, but GOD keeping His covenant promises throughout 2,000 and ongoing years.
Please come join your GOD and savior Jesus Christ in the Lamb's Supper being the New Covenant Passover. Where we "thank" GOD for what He has done for us and we get to feast as ONE DIVINE SPIRITUAL FAMILY. May GOD'S speed, grace and peace be upon you to enter His Kingdom of GOD being the ONE HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH.

I love these two men, R C Sproul and John MacArthur have become some of my 5 favorite pastors that I ever heard in my short Christian life. I used to be one of the very badly and sadly deceived catholics. I was always searching for the truth of God and his word. I was deceived by catholic schools and churches and religion classes in which the teachers didn't have any idea of how to answer my questions. When I was only 12 yrs old, I almost lose some of the school years for religion class, just because I was always asking questions in the religion class. The teacher didn't like me. I was in a female catholic school in which, they were teaching me evolution in biology and science and, creation in religion class!!! That was very confusing, on top of all the questions I had about everything, the priests never wanted to talk to us and we were even scared to approach to them, if it wasn't because we were going to confess our sins! Furthermore ,we always confessed our sins, to receive the same penitence, (pray 3 holy mary, 3 holy fathers and 3 glories, or something like that) The ignorance about Jesus and about God around the world is HUGE, the absence of good pastors and teachers like R.C and John M, is HUGE. I wish I was able to meet them many years ago. Probably that could saved me or helped me earlier in life, to not make so many mistakes. I really thank God, my husband and one of my pastors. They were referring me to John M first and then to R.C. A young student pastor referred me to John and my husband to R C. I love you both and thank you so much for all you teach, for all I learn over these videos and Ligonier Ministries, from your videos and thank God, because He gave us pastors like them and gave them the knowledge to do all the things they've been giving us. Thanks R.C. ,John and,God Bless them ans Keep Then Both for more and longer time, to learn more from them. I hope I can meet them one day. Adriana
nanis - How wonderful! Glory to GOD!!! You had a tough start, so now you will have the strength to saturate yourself in the Scriptures and stay the course! Pray, read the Bible, and worship daily! Also - please pray for a revival!!!

I love sound teaching with honest doctrine from God's word in His Book the Bible...
Nothing, absolutely nothing compares to it...
Jesus is the Word... Stay blessed in Jesus name Amen

Protestant teachings are FULL OF CONTRADICTION.
For example???
1. Protestants preach an "invisible" and "Spiritual" Church, while they hypocritically reach deep down into gullible people's pockets for money in a very "visible" place. Why do Protestants preach an "invisible" or "Spiritual" Church??? To hide the fact and truth they have absolutely no history back to Jesus Christ or beyond a 1500'S "man" Martin Luther.
2. Protestants teach a self contradictory false teaching "Bible Alone", which ironically is found absolutely no where in the Bible.
3. Protestants say "everything has to be in the Bible to be believed". Where is that statement even in Sacred Scriptures??? Instead, what do Sacred Scriptures say??? John 21:25, 2 Thessalonians 2:15 or especially Acts 1:3. Which ONE CHURCH has these "40 days" of Jesus Christ's teachings that are not in the Bible per the Bible???
4. Protestants say "ORAL TRADITION" is to be rejected. Why??? Because, not one "man made" Protestant denomination has history back to Jesus Christ, so they have to reject it - despite what 2 Thessalonians 2:15 clearly says.
5. Protestants say the "pillar and bulwark of TRUTH" is the Bible. 1 Timothy 3:15 clearly states "the Church" singular - meaning the ONE HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH - is the "pillar and bulwark of TRUTH", who was the Church that ultimately put the Bible together in the first place.
6. Protestants say "the Bible" is the final authority. As a result, it has led to 35,000 and growing "divisions" - as they each become their own "Pope" deciding what is correct or not. Conversely, we see Jesus Christ giving His final "authority" to resolve faith and moral disputes to His ONE and ONLY established Church being the ONE HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH per Matthew 18:17.
7. Protestants preach "Faith Alone". The Bible clearly rebukes this specific false teaching by stating in James 2:24 "NOT BY FAITH ALONE". In John 13:34, Jesus Christ commands us in the NEW COVENANT to "love", which clearly is an action or work that is needed (John 5:29, 15:12, 17, Romans 2:6, Philippians 2:12, Colossians 1:10, Acts 26:20, etc.) for salvation.
8. Protestants say the Holy Eucharist is just "symbolism", which ironically is another word not found in the Bible just like "Bible Alone". However, Jesus Christ Himself (WHO CANNOT LIE) repeats over and over in the Bible "THIS IS MY BODY....THIS IS MY BLOOD" (Matthew 26:26, Mark 14:22, Luke 22:19, John 6:51, 54-58) and is needed for salvation (John 6:54-55) or for "Death to Passover" in the NEW COVENANT PASSOVER (Luke 22:19). Jesus Christ, the "Lamb of God" (John 1:29, 1 Corinthians 5:7, 1 Peter 1:19), is the true fulfilled "forever" GOD liturgically commanded "Bread of the PRESENCE" (Leviticus 24:5-9).
9. Protestants say Matthew 23:9 "call no man father" is an indictment against the Catholic Church priests being called "Father", while they hypocritically call their own biological father's "father".
In that Matthew 23:9 statement of Jesus Christ's, Protestants don't understand Jesus was using a hyperbole teaching emphasizing not to get caught up in honors or titles that can detract from proper worship due to our Heavenly "Father". Proof??? Judges 17:10, 18:19. What did GOD allow His old covenant priesthood to be called??? Philem 10 and especially 1 Corinthians 4:15. What did Catholic St. Paul consider himself in the New Covenant???
10. Protestants say "no statues" or "pictures" as they do not understand we have moved from an old covenant "invisible" GOD to a New Covenant "visible" GOD (Colossians 1:15-23) whom "adopted" us into His Family (Galatians 4:4-7) through "water (Baptism) and Spirit(Laying of Hands)" (John 3:5).
If GOD is now our Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ our King Brother, then who logically would be our Queen Mother??? John 19:27 and Revelation 12:1-6, 17. Per Revelation 12:17, whose children are we really??? Got any statues or pictures of your family???
11. Protestants say "no man" can forgive sins. However, in the old covenant GOD clearly used ordained "men", the Leviticus Priesthood, to forgive sins (Leviticus 5:5-6, Numbers 5:5-9). In Matthew 16:19, 18:18, and specifically explained in John 20:21-23 what same "power" did Jesus Christ give to His ONE and ONLY established Church being the ONE HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH or to the NEW COVENANT ordained "men" of GOD???
12. Protestants say the Biblical "Harlot" is the Catholic Church. But, GOD calls who the harlot to the nations in Ezekiel 23:30: "you have played the harlot with the nations and have polluted yourself with their idols". GOD and the prophets repeatedly called the old covenant Jews the harlot for committing adultery and idolatry in GOD'S eyes.
13. Protestants accuse the Catholic Church as "man made" or "pagan". But, what does clear history and the Bible (Matthew 16:19) say???
www.newadvent.org/cathen/12272b.htm
The irony and contradiction here is each and every single Protestant denomination (35,000 and growing divisions) is truly "man made" all stemming from a 1500's "man" Martin Luther. For instance, Protestant history can easily be revealed like the Seventh Day Adventist denomination was established by a "man" in Battle Creek, MI in 1863AD.
14. Catholics persecuted and killed millions??? What is the TRUTH???
www.themichigancatholic.org/2016/11/inquisition-50-68-million-killed-church/
www.newadvent.org/cathen/11703a.htm
Protestants even persecuted and killed Catholic women, and one simply for harboring Catholic priests !!!
www.britannica.com/biography/Saint-Margaret-Clitherow
So yes, there are many contradictions and outright lies in "man made" Protestantism.

PLEASE READ VERY CAREFULLY AS IF YOUR ETERNAL “LIFE” DEPENDED ON IT
In the Book of Hebrews Chapter 10, in context, the author was talking to “baptized” Christians (Hebrews 10:22) telling them to not be “neglecting to meet together” in “the Church” - being the ONE HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH. Why “the Church”???
***Hebrews **10:26**-29 “For IF WE SIN DELIBERATELY after receiving knowledge of the truth, THERE NO LONGER REMAINS A SACRIFICE FOR SINS, BUT A FEARFUL PROSPECT OF JUDGMENT, AND A FURY OF FIRE WHICH WILL CONSUME THE ADVERSARIES………..HOW MUCH MORE PUNISHMENT DO YOU THINK WILL BE DESERVED BY THE MAN WHO HAS SPURNED THE SON OF GOD, AND PROFANED THE BLOOD OF THE COVENANT BY WHICH HE HAS SANCTIFIED, AND OUTRAGED THE SPIRIT OF GRACE”.***
What does Sacred Scriptures clearly say “IF WE SIN DELIBERATELY” or willfully break any of the commandments whether the old (10 Commandments) or NEW (Laws of LOVE or refusing to LOVE as Christ commands per John 13:34)??? If “THERE NO LONGER REMAINS A SACRIFICE FOR SINS, BUT A FEARFUL PROSPECT OF JUDGMENT”, then how does one obtain reconciliation with GOD again???
We must examine the old covenant to fully understand the NEW COVENANT. In Leviticus 5:5-6 and Numbers 5:5-9 we understand what an old covenant Jew had to do to receive GOD's forgiveness. Additionally, GOD in the Books of Leviticus and Numbers any time personal “sin” is even mentioned you will read over and over again “THUS THE PRIEST SHALL MAKE ATONEMENT FOR A MAN’S SINS AND IT WILL BE FORGIVEN” (Lev 4:20, 4:26, 4:31,4:35, 5:6, 5:10, 5:13, 5:16, 5:18, 6:7, 7:7, 12:8, 14:18, 14:19, 14:20, 14:29, 14:31, 15:15, 15:30, 16:32, 16:33, 19:22 Num. 6:11,15:25, and 15:28). In the old covenant, GOD clearly uses ordained “men”, the Leviticus Priesthood, to administer His forgiveness.
Now, does GOD keep His WORD and covenant promises??? GOD promises to have a perpetual priesthood per His covenant in Numbers 25:12-13 and Malachi 2:4-7 and has WORDS of “forever” in Exodus 29:7-9, 40:15, and 1 Chronicles 23:13. Then, GOD promises to have a perpetual priesthood in Jeremiah 33:14-22 NEW COVENANT PROPHECY. And, in context of “gathering the nations” in Isaiah 66:18 GOD states in Isaiah 66:21 “some of them also I will take for priests”, meaning no longer based on Levi tribal lineage in the NEW COVENANT. In John Chapter 13, we see Jesus Christ fulfilling His Father’s Levi Covenant promise and Malachi 3:3 prophecy, when He sits down in the upper room “purifying” the NEW COVENANT PRIESTHOOD with a “washing”. This “washing” was a “forever” priestly liturgical GOD command in Exodus 30:21- in order to perform any altar work or sacrifice.
What “same” power does the Son of GOD give to His ONE and ONLY established Church or “the Church” per Matthew 16:19, 18:18 and specifically explained to the NEW COVENANT PRIESTHOOD by Jesus in John 20:21-23???
In 2 Corinthians 5:18-20 St. Paul describes what Jesus Christ did was He “GAVE US THE MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION” and concluded “SO WE ARE AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST”. An “ambassador” wields what kind of power as an “official representative” of Christ or more specifically explained in “the Church” as “persona Christi”???
Please come or return to your real home and be “reconciled” to “the Church” HIS ONE BODY (Ephesians 4:4-6). What did Jesus Christ create, pray for in John 17:21-23 and die for??? If you really LOVE Jesus Christ, then you will respond to His prayer and join the “ONENESS” that He created. The “Lamb of GOD” wants to unite with you in the NEW COVENANT PASSOVER (Luke 22:19) in His ONE and ONLY established Church, so we all can be “perfectly ONE”. May GOD richly bless you on your journey.
One True Faith sorry to tell you but I grew up Catholic and saw how that church did so many bad things including sodomy, money laundering and more, including a priest in the family that only care about money and idolatry of all kind of idols and some of his community priests that searched for men and little boys for sex. The pope is changing the Lords Prayer, popes invented the limbo and purgatory and they killed many for translating the Bible so we all could read it. Sorry but you need to study and learn more about history and like it or not, these men 👆🏻have been teaching and studying for life, how long have you? I believe what the Bible says and not in anyone that wants to twist it including roman catholic apostolic. Btw did you know who translated the Bible for us? It was Luther and then in other languages by “priests” from Catholic and all of them were Catholic and all of them persecuted by their own church and even killed by them. God Help Us all and Stop the division and just keep giving us discernment of whom we have to learn from and who to listen. GBY and save you too.
I recently became reformed in my theology earlier this year and my mind was changed and the revelation of it all predestination and election was just amazing to me, Jesus is so good that He would open my eyes and the treasure I have with knowing this has transformed me, gave me a deeper understanding of God and a greater fear of the Lord and now I see the sovereignty of God and that wasn’t taught in the church we went to nor was predestination or election. Was a Pentecostal church and a lot of prosperity gospel teaching mixed with salvation by the blood of Jesus but there was mingled in there with a lot of heresies and God brought me out and over the last few years and this year recently changed my life to a biblical Christian life and not a denominational Christian life
God bless these men always. What beacons of spiritual strength they are to us. As long as I've studied Reformed Theology, there are *no videos* by either one of these two brothers that I *can't* learn from. They are true champions of the faith! Thank you brothers, for ALL that you do!
you seem to have swallowed the lies of MacArthur. The Catholic Catechism ""Worship is reserved for the Godhead alone" (Father Son and Holy Spirit) Catholics have been saying for 2000 years that salvation is only through Jesus Christ -- All sacraments are prayers to and gifts from Christ. Mary the Saints Our Priests and other Holy people can all help us but it is only through Christ that we are saved. If you want to know what Catholics believe go to "Catholic Answers" not someone like MacArthur who has a track record of lies against Gods Holy Catholic Church .
@@1234poppycat Oh stop it "deacon". That comment sounded so full of jealousy. As for Catholicism, some of us are actually educated about it. The doctrines of the catholic church aren't even interesting to debate anymore. Catholicism is for people who have no idea how to figure out how to read a scripture, or old Italians who are only catholic because they think it means they're more Italian. Please. If you cannot elevate yourself to a higher level, that's on you. But don't insult my statements when you're in a kindergarten church that no one even bothers with anymore.
@@faithafterdark7801 No way would I be jealous of MacArthur and his lies about Catholicism. It is funny that they have awarded themselves doctorates when they are like naïve undergraduates !! Your funny claim that the 1 billion Catholics are inconsequential whilst we outnumber all protestants in their 40 000 churches / sects .. I could easily defeat MacArthur and his cronies in any debate on the bible
@@1234poppycat You know what? That response was so cringe-provoking that I really can't even find the words to appropriately respond. Referring to Ministers of the gospel and world renowned theologians as "cronies"? Suggesting that they would even take 3 minutes to debate some Catholic who is more concerned about how many of you there are than how corrupt you are? Is this a joke? Nearly half of your people think gay marriages should be accepted and women should be priests. You call that a group of people who is biblically educated? More people leave the Catholic church every year than they actually attract. I'm actually embarrassed for you.
@@faithafterdark7801 1 They are not ministers of the Gospel when they lie and try to lead the gullible away from Gods Catholic Church. 2 The Catholic Church does not support gay marriage but many of your protestant churches do !! Yes I am in favour of women priests ... If you were to read your bible you would find nothing against this ! 4 Across the World the Catholic faith is growing & in the west we are attracting the biblically educated and generally intelligent ( ex UK PM Tony Blair US ex pastor Dr Scott Hahn etc .. In fact 1/4 of ordained priests in my Archdiocese over the last 10 years are ex protestant ministers ) 5 Be embarrassed for yourself in your fake church as you support lies of the Hate preachers - I have come from Protestantism (married in a Baptist Church decades ago ) I know and now can never leave Gods Catholic Church
Such a great team of Godly men ,missing Dr Sproul but we still got Pastor Mcarthur 🙌🙏🏾 thank you
39:50 to 40:40. These were the most powerful, affirming, consoling words I have ever heard a pastor speak. We see , idolize, believe, envy, and marvel at the Saul to Paul conversions. But nobody bats an eye at the hundreds of thousands of people who slowly grow and conform to Christ over the course of their lives. These we ignore. But I think it is the NORM that slow, steady, blissful change. And I fretted over my own slow growth over the years. Thank you Dr MacArthur for reassuring me it is okay to conform to Christ at my own pace.
I had the same sanctification process(still am!) it used to worry me.
Bless you all! Thank you and to the late Dr Sproul and Dr MaCarthur for leading me into the Word. Praise Jesus Christ for saving a wretch like me. All the glory to him, and I keep being humbled. These men of God are a gift and a testament to His glory! Our Lord God is Holy, Holy, Holy.
I didnt know I was in the reformed camp for so long. Thank God for his grace.
I see two elderly men not understanding their continued failings. They focus on the split hairs of Christianity rather than trying to come together and giving one saving message. How can we proclaim the Gospel to the World when we spend more of our time trying to find minor points of error among other Christians … the Reformation opened a Pandora's box. Luther envisaged a single church in each country. We have one Catholic Church and 40 000 protestant churches...
My life is really transformed indeed , God is really great so much
I was just thinking of the Ephesians today myself. I never want to leave my first Love.
This is my first time to listen 👂 to both gentlemen and pastors. Yes I now know Paster Sproul, Is with our Lord.I love you both and Thank you isn’t enough. What a gift to be with all who love the Trinty .🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
May God continue to bless the preaching and teaching of the TRUTH
listening to these to Men of GOD has changed my Christian walk! May the LORD continue to bless them and their ministries 💖💖💖

Great theologians for our day!
Praise God for this men who’s “..rightly dividing the word of truth.” Soli Deo Gloria!
And this is why I love Jmac, you helped me understand the gospel, as someone with a legalistic upbringing a teacher like jmac shaped my understanding of the gospel entirely. God bless you sir
Two of my favorite teachers. I keep them both in pray as they advance in age, and Dr. Sproul perseveres through his health battles.
Manny Sanchez Sadly RC is gone, but in heaven, for sure. We still have John, but he doesn't preach as much. Rick Warren, and Joel Osteen, are all over, everywhere, and it's quite frightening. The difference between these two men, and all the rest is staggering. I find it really hard to be a Christian. Everyone is so mean. Saying ''Merry Christmas" instead of " Happy Holidays'', you get disciplined. It's so hard to love people, like never before, especially, when people will throw you under the bus, and I just have to bite my tongue. Praise and Worship is scary, All the PCA Church's in Miami have all succumbed to to the watered down Gospel. These two men, you can really see Christ in them every time. If their messages were not around, I think I would be lost forever. I don't behave well, but I have a serious learning Disability, which causes meltdowns, and I'm. Never sure. I can't seem to be transformed, and I really want to be, but am do discouraged. I take care of my mother, with Dementia, and I just want to die. I listen to John and RC, which help
somewhat, but maybe I'm just mentally Disturbed. I want yo be really transformed, but not God's elect.

+Candy Harding What does that mean "I am newly reformed"?
+spaniardviii I now believe in predestination and that God and God only has made my salvation possible.
What did you believe before?
+spaniardviii I believed that my salvation was solely my responsibility and that I received it by my own decision to accept Jesus as my personal savior. Now I believe that God chose me and that I had no ability to come to him without his first drawing me to him.
+Candy Harding The Bible teaches both. You cannot pick one over the other. Personally to me it seems that your still a little confuse. If you choose one over the other sadly to say that without you knowing it you are denying part of scripture. Either you believe in both what the Bible reveals or you will denying part of scripture. You must learn to harmonize two things that might seem to be conflicting with one another, which in reality is not. Understand it as the whole Bible reveals it. Please, don't take this the wrong way I'm a brother in Christ to you and I do care or else I wouldn't spend my time typing this. :)
1. Your responsibility:
Luke 13:34 "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing.
Ezekiel 18:23 Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked?" This is the declaration of the Lord GOD. "Instead, don't I take pleasure when he turns from his ways and lives?
1 Timothy 2:4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
1 Timothy 4:10 To this end we labor and strive, because we have set our hope on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, and especially of those who believe.
2. Chosen or elected by God before the world began:
Ephesians 1:4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him In love
2 Thess. 2:13 But we should always give thanks to God for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and faith in the truth.
Ephesians 2:10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.
Romans 8:29-30 For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to
the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren; and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He justified, He also glorified.
I am so indebted to these faithful preachers who have truly opened my thought process of what it really means to be a follower Christ. So so grateful. Thank you God 🙌

What two amazing men God uses, why? Because they use the Word of God only, simple answer. There are many pastors out there do not do that. I have been praying for years for the truth and I am blessed that Christ uses these two men to teaches us the Word of the Truth, The Bible.

If God is not totally sovereign then God is not totally God! Your free will doesn’t make God God, nothing makes God, God is was and will always be God freely upon His own asity ..... 🌷🌷🌷
John, you don’t have a face for radio😊. RC you’ve been a family’s favorite for years, John my husband loves your teaching.
I’m so grateful for these two. I miss R.C. Sproul but still listen to him on the Ligionier App.
Same!!
@@daianaivan9638 So do I, what a blessing these two men of God have been to me and millions of others. Thankfully the Lord has provided audio and video formats such that we can continue to hear their exposition of His holy word.
Beloved men of God, we so need more men like these!!! who preach the truth. God protect them from the evil that is so prevalent around us.
Margaret Macleod,
How do you know that they preach the truth?
Calvinism is only half the truth....
Election and Predestination' is indeed a biblical doctrine because it is in the scriptures... However John Calvin failed to understand the entirety of this doctrine.... He had known
half of it only and added his own understanding to this doctrine of 'Election and Predestination'....
So, Calvinism is Truth mixed with Lies and the it is more dangerous than lies alone....
I have asked several Calvinists this question, which none of them were able to answer, because it was not taught by John Calvin who himself did not know the answer....
My Question : How did God Choose those whom He will save? Surely God have some
basis for His choice.... He did not just pick them at random....
The Answer is:
Of course God choose His own children...
It is in the scriptures that there are two groups of people in this world, 'The Sheep
and the goats' or 'The Wheat and the Tares'....
In the Parable of 'The wheat and Tares', Jesus Himself explained who are these two
groups of people, and where did they come from...
The 'Sheep or Wheat' are the true children of God, and they will be saved...
The 'goats or tares' are of the devil and they are damned.....
The Sheep or Wheat are the True children of God not only by creation but
by HEREDITY.... I can prove this to you if you are interested....
The Sheep inherited the character of God, The goats inherited the character of the
devil.....
After the Fall of Adam and Eve, All the children of God are affected and inherited
the fallen nature of Adam and Eve, they did not inherit the sin but the sinful nature.
That's why Jesus came to give His life for ransom to save the Elect....
(hope this clarifies you) The elects were fallen and they need to be saved....
There is no OSAS in the scriptures, it is the wrong understanding of Calvin the
murderer...
All the elect will definitely be saved, not one will be lost....
John 17:12(KJV) ''While I was with them in the world, I kept them in your name:
those that you gave me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the '''son of perdition''';
that the scripture might be fulfilled.''
(the son of perdition is Judas, he is not the child of God, but the son of perdition, a goat)
Example of Goats : Cain, Judas, some of the pharisees, pharaoh in the time of Moses....
Example of Sheep : Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon, The apostles except Judas....
Note: The difference between the Sheep and the goats.... The Sheep though they are in
the fallen state, they still love God and desire to please God, Not the goats, they don't love
God but only their selves...
Look at Cain, he has no respect to God, he faced God with anger and blamed God for his
sin of killing Abel....
How about John 3:16 ?
John 3:16(NIV)
''For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in
him shall not perish but have eternal life.''
''Whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life''==>>Only the Elect will believe because they are the True Children of God and Have the character of God.... The goats are of the devil, they hate God and don't have the ability to repent...
Look at Judas, he prefer to hang himself than to repent of what he has done....
''Go unto all the world and preach the gospel to all creatures''==>>Only the Sheep will believe the gospel and repent.....
How will we know if we are the true children of God who inherited the character of God
like David, and Joseph, and the apostles, except Judas?
I did not found any scripture for that, probably there is, but I have not find it...
But I can give you a clue: If when you hear the words of God especially about the character
of Jesus, and you want to know more, When there is a hunger in your Heart for the Truth
of God's words, it is a good sign that you can be the chosen one...
If you find yourself to be affectionate to the less fortunate people, If you can easily forgive
others, these are signs that you are one of the elect and a true child of God....
May God bless you Margaret through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.....
I hope and pray that the black church gets more leaders like these men. We need true teachers of the bible. Many great Black ministers are teaching the truth of God one in particular is Bishop Omega in Philly. RIP both MacArthur and Sproul you are missed
John MacArthur is not dead!
I miss sproul
I got a pain in my chest when I heard he had died.
Transformation does take time by renewing your mind. If you don’t get the right teaching, you can still get into trouble. That is why right teaching is so important. God is so good He will bring you back every time. I’m so thankful.
So we have "New Reformed" as if Christ needs rebranding ... many seem to have swallowed the lies of MacArthur and Sproul . The Catholic Catechism ""Worship is reserved for the Godhead alone" (Father Son and Holy Spirit) Catholics have been saying for 2000 years that salvation is only through Jesus Christ -- All sacraments are prayers to and gifts from Christ. Mary the Saints Our Priests and other Holy people can all help us but it is only through Christ that we are saved. If you want to know what Catholics believe go to "Catholic Answers" not someone like MacArthur who has a track record of lies against Gods Holy Catholic Church .
These are some of my favorite videos. Questions and answers offer up unique insights that I myself never arrive at when I read the scriptures by myself. I just am not as far long as these men that’s prolly it
Thank you all, so much for sharing ! 🙏♥️
I am so grateful to these men for their love for the right interpretation of the Word. They have opened my mind to the truth.
susan van der merwe
Their interpretation of the bible is anything but the truth. Calvinism is a cult. It can be proven as such.
Evan U Have you read your Bible? Please ask the Lord to show you the truth.
Oh boy. How much we need this. Thank God for technology! We wouldn't have access to listening to these men without technology.
R C once again hits the nail on the head. It’s not first about clean living nor about purpose nor about our wellbeing. It begins and ends with Jesus, His person, who He is and what He showed and taught us. We can only love Him and abide in Him if we know Him. Everything else follows from this fundamental.
“I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me YOU CAN DO NOTHING.”
John 15:5 ESV
So we'll said. Precious Truths. Thank you.
Knights of the Reformed table!
Now I do thanks to you: Wace
@Devon 😄👍👍👍👍
@@SuperEROQ hmm
38:48 keep pouring gasoline on that fire. Lord may I never grow cold in the things concerning your kingdom.
The late Keith Green had a song called Oh Lord Your Beautiful. The lyrics kind of go with your thought here: Oh Lord, you're beautiful, Your face is all I see, For when your eyes are on this child, Your grace abounds to me Oh Lord, you're beautiful, Your face is all I see, For when your eyes are on this child Your grace abounds to me I want to take your word and shine it all around But first help me to just, live it Lord And when I'm doing well, help me to never seek a crown For my reward is giving glory to you Oh Lord, please light the fire That once burned bright and clean Replace the lamp of my first love That burns with holy fear I want to take your word and shine it all around But first help me to just, live it Lord And when I'm doing well, help me to never seek a crown For my reward is giving glory to you Oh Lord, you're beautiful Your face is all I see For when your eyes are on this child Your grace abounds to me Oh Lord, you're beautiful Your face is all I see For when your eyes are on......
@@TheBlessedgardner Never get tired of Keith Green! A popular, super-talented Christian performer with challenging content...one of a kind!
Just remember that ur works cant save u, only faith on the Lord saves, onced saved always saved buddy see u in heaven
@@lilporshe That is what I also understand. I believe in the Gift if Grace towards us. Saved by Grace through faith which is the Gift of God, and not of works lest anyone should boast". Simple truth of God's great Love and Salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord.
I love these guys.
I sure did agree with John MacAurther on the lack of knowledge of the Bible in the church. Lack of knowledge of Pastors concerning God and the Bible. I thank you God for letting me find these men of God that know the word of God and that has brought me closer to God. Praise God praise God !
Thank you God we have strong men of faith and love. Thank you..thank you...thank you
That's a beautiful church building!
Superb. Simply superb.
O how I love to hear the Truth,❤
Love these guys.

These two men are the best of the best
Yes they are!
They are a blessing 🙌
Actually, no. They are the worse of the worse where limited atonement is nothing but sacrilegious.
@@jdubs325 These two individuals are what you call "Reformed". They have not reformed anything, but rather both of them have put God in a box where He can be understood ONLY through the Bible, to the point that the Bible becomes the mediator between God and man.
Sproul said, and I quote him, "the problem with the church today is that we don't know who God is." Really? Neither did he nor any other so-called "Reformed Brother", better said, these CALVINISTS are nothing short of being part of a cult. If you think I"m dead wrong, please define God in three words. Thanks.
@@solitarypawn5076 You don't even get it based on what you are saying...
Precision of preaching is awesome, both such devotion to The Holy God the Son, The life of Jesus is The Gospel and the Holy Spirit, the Trinity. The TRUTH ACCORDING TO THE GOSPEL, the Christ sits at the Right Hand Side of the Father and God’s giving Authority over everything in the Universe. I LOVE AND ADMIRE THESE MINISTERS TEACHERS OF GOD’S WORD. ♥️🙏✝️🇺🇸🇮🇱

I have been so inspired listening to you godly men. I am so frustrated with being tossed here an there..By the time I came to Christ ..which I really believe I was saved in my younger years ..an God was with me through my truggles of going my own way..Really at the time I was ignorant to the salvation of my gift if Grace..I was raised in a presbeterian church..an I didnr have much Bible study at all..BUT let me tell you for all that I went through an was even married to a Muslim..I remained In Jesus ..why? not by me..He stayed with me..he knew I would come to him later in life an when I did...Boy was I Lala Lala land..not like someone chasing spiritual high..I DIDNT have to chase it..it came to me and I received it..an the night I did..I had been starting wanting something from T
God an I wanted to question him now..I was ready for answers and when I wrote on line the simple question..who is Jesus? is he the Son of God? AND ALL THIS INFORMATION I WAS READING ..I was astonished! I mean spiritual experience tears fell down on my phone as I scrolled through reading..Saying I knew that I knew that oh my goodness Jesus I knew that..an I repented an cried saying please forgive me..I need you..I love you and I remember what you taught me in my youth. I love you. And I know I was born again that night..I believed and Then I received what I was believing. Conviction of several issues came over me even at that moment that I knew was wrong before ..we know right from wrong by the law but for this moment I really felt sorry and wanted forgiveness. This night was the most wonderful night of my life ..an The conviction was a good thing ..I DIDNT feel in trouble or like a pharisee was judging me..but I wanted to see and feel this. Never had felt this sorrow before but I was only sorry before ..Well I was caught or so be sorry ..maintain good in social situations..Or looking outside to feel better or fix my inner pain wounds and struggles had now become I want you Jesus I want to know you all about you..an I also went not long after feeling GREAT FEAR FOR the enemy was starting warfare with me..I was still stuck in a particular sin..that I was practically begging Jesus to just make it vanish ..haha or make me not want it well I had to go through a long journey to understand this war with flesh an spirit..I even at times felt same bad thought coming making me think I was a blasphemy..it was horrid the one day ..I read about just simply pray in the blood of Jesus demand any demon spirit i carry or coming to harm me to go now! in Jesus name..an God is my witness .I woke up the next morning the attack was gone. IT WAS AMAZING..I WAS IN JESUS WILL AND DEMAND THE DEMON LEAVE OT HAS TO GO. BUT MY sin I hung to..I have done the same but in all reality my nature of desire to this sin still desired it..Until the day I am done an an his will ..this to me is obey I TELL YOU..GOD MOVES..I change within and I feel a baggage if a load is lifted off. such a beautiful freedom an joy comes over me. An peace an its in these times God makes me wise..An reveals so much to me..no way can I do these things or understand nor did I ever want to read search or seeks for hours before haha ..I had learning disability..I could learn an master the moon lol whatever that means..but it took all of me an had to almost be abnormal indulgence to mastermind or practice something..An I had no more fear of shyness like before either..Nor was I afraid to share the gospel..I spoke it whenever I could..I coudnt stop ..I did slow down lol but Now if I even go my own way fir a period ..God forbid..he has so much patience with me..he keeps me. I even felt a little bit that I was just going among sharing an doing to do what I am to do..but I was losing my longing an desire .but God knew it was bothering me..I start to share tube story of Rachel Jacob an Leah to another I felt needed..an I Was one needing the message ...I was like oh wow Jesus thank you ..an I pray to continue what he started in me..I want to always abide an remain. scary thought to lose or my salvation stolen from me!! Jesus crushes that devil in the end through my trials an tribulation I must go threw ..so much peace an joy I never had..and I would rather an most days be studying reading singing sharing then anything I could ever ...God keep my zeal always ..without Jesus my literal breath of life..I dont want life now of dont have my Jesus..to live for what? this world dont look so wonderful nor man made psychology..nor watch corrupt or listen to corrupt music ..all that interest left..if I do dabble..I will say to myself.. How dumb Stacy Jesus took you put of that sinfulness quit playing around the devil come an snare me fast. an he will too...intiser to do more sin..then behave sinful..its just so ugly an unclean now..I dont want it. I pray for my daughter to come like I did to Jesus ..I sow the seed every chance I get an leave the rest for Jesus .. which I dont always do with people..I want them to have so much it frustrates me..why? I love them now..and really could o say I believe in Jesus if my most longing desire an pray that I must believe by faith an trust he will save my Sarah. My other daughter is Christian but been taught from beginning g ...Sarah however when I was not born again an ignorant living secular..she too picked this up. But she will be picked up this time by my Lord Jesus ..Amen. I can't believe I just shared so much..haha lol .funny. .Thank you again ..For am not tossed nor confused by sneaky twisting or too much radical they have now..it really scares me..i love to praise..but not all over the place like loopy doopy. I want mature honest Shepherds that care ..Amen that be you all. love u an God Bless too..❤💕❤
My sheep hear my voice,... These 2 men know His voice, and we all would do well to listen to their teachings. Read your bible, the entire bible.
I love this! Amen!
Excellent thank you so much
God bless you, that is absolute true
God bless my brothers!!!
Hi Keith!
@@angelbarajas9180 Hello!!
Love these men💪❤️
RIP RC Sproul.
Brilliant!!
It pains me to see these men age and RC with the oxygen. Praise God for the internet, a lot of great recordings, books, dvds, etc. so they can really be with us for a long long time. A lot of good young ones coming up behind them, but I can't imagine anyone being as well read and studied as these two.
I agree one of then is Dr Michael Horthon..
I feel the same way. I am a new follower of their teaching and have watched videos of them when they were younger. I pray they are on this earth for many more years.
Candy Harding
Through their recordings they will be.
mzimmerman12 I'm sure their greatest desire is to be with the Lord. As Paul said, "To live is Christ, to die is Gain." I know I'm so ready to be Home with the LORD and I'm very happy. Great husband, six wonderful children. Six grandchildren. I get to travel. Life is good. Heaven will be infinitely better beyond our wildest dreams!!
For sure. I'm 18 and in seminary and these two men have already so strongly influenced my theology and views on ministry. Such a blessing!
Praise God for technology!!❤❤❤
Helpful & edifying video!
I agree with all of John‘s statements EXCEPT: „I have a face for radio“!
I would advise y'all keep a copy of this and go over it several times. This is pure gold Biblical teaching that, as referred to by both these men of God, is so missing in our churches these days.Not since I was at theological college have I heard such excellent teaching and even there, I don't ever recall being taught that 'Regeneration precedes the New Birth'. That Regeneration must take place before we can receive the gift of faith! Dead as we are to God in our sinful states, we are unable to receive from God. Therefore, He brings about our New Birth and THEN we can receive the wonderful free gift of God's amazing faith, Praise God. [23:40]
I have only recently discovered these two tremendous men of God. Such wonderful advocates of the Gospel' Expository preachers that are so rare these days. They make most other preachers appear so shallow in their teaching. And then I learn that R C Sproul went to be with the Lord December 14th 2017. I am confident he is now enjoying the frut of his labour for the Lord, as all good and faithful servants will receive. Meanwhile, I will glean the net for all the teachings I can find from these guys. Thank you for sharing.
mike jduk,

Can you please support with bible verse this new teaching that you have learned?
If you cannot find a verse that can support it, reject that teaching....
How could anyone put thumbs down on this, such great insight from these godly men
Because they are unteachable and without accountability. They believe in their own publicity in my humble opinion.
@@rayfiedler9482 yes, those are good observations. A kind of humble pride.
Teaching the bible is one thing and its an awesome thing, its when they start flipping the word of God to their liking....If your not in the bible completely and just reading books of intellectual men then yu will not recognize it. nah I'm good my teacher is the Holy spirit. Ill sit under men that teach word not to their liking many ppl worship these men. I've listen to them all my favorite was McCarther but when I really started learning and him fliping I said I'm done with him.
@@rayfiedler9482 yes MacArthur and Spoul do
They were encouraging about their desire for the truth. Then the wheels fell off with the idea the we are unable to do anything about our salvation until the Spirit acts on our hearts. Keep reading guys.
Farewell RC. I'll see you on the other side/
Excellent discussion of the Gospel!
31:20! Wait! this was in Florida?! Why do I miss these things? :(
"God is angry with the wicked every day". The end is near so Watch and Pray
Amen🙏🙏for the truth word of God.
God is always working.
