Today’s Quote – Strength (MacArthur)

John MacArthur, The Pillars of Christian Character: “Spiritual strength for believers is essentially an attitude of courage, and it includes such virtues as courage of conviction, courage to be uncompromising, courage to confront error and false doctrine, and courage to face intimidation and persecution and still remain true to what is right. A strong Christian […]

Today’s Quote – Gospel (MacArthur)

John MacArthur, A Tale of Two Sons: The typical sinner wants out of the morass of sin, and his first instinct is to devise a plan. He will work off his guilt. He will reform himself. But such a plan could never succeed. The debt is too great to repay, and the sinner is helpless […]

Today’s Quote – Scripture (MacArthur)

John MacArthur, Our Sufficiency in Christ: You’ll never know what the Word can do if you don’t study and apply it. It isn’t enough to simply say you believe it. It must occupy an exalted place in your life. Since God Himself exalts and magnifies it (Ps. 138:2), how much more should we?

Today’s Quote – Love for God (MacArthur)

John MacArthur, “Rekindling Your Love for Christ:” …the Christian life is about loving Christ. [It] is about loving him singularly. It is about loving him totally. It is about loving him sacrificially. It is about loving him obediently. It is about loving him worshipfully. It is about loving him in terms of service. It really […]

Session 8 – John MacArthur

What about the problem of evil in the world? How about trouble in the world (Lk. 13)? How will we help our people through trouble? Larry King — “I can’t believe in your God because there is just too much trouble in the world.” There is trouble in the entire world — even crime in […]

Session 3 — John MacArthur

FOUNDATIONAL TRUTHS FOR JOHN MacARTHUR’S 40 YEARS OF MINISTRY I just wanted to understand the Bible – I wanted a place where I would have to be disciplined to study it every week. I wanted to understand the New Testament – it’s never been about preaching, but to know about Scripture – what does it […]

Today’s Quote – Righteousness (MacArthur)

John MacArthur, Matthew 1-7: When our spiritual hunger and thirst are genuine they will make no conditions; they will seek and accept God’s righteousness in whatever way He chooses to provide it and will obey His commands no matter how demanding they may be. The least of God’s righteousness is more valuable than the greatest […]

Reasons for John MacArthur’s enduring ministry

On February 1, Grace Community Church will celebrate the 40th anniversary of John MacArthur’s pastorate there.

Today’s Quote (10/19/08)

Amy Carmichael: And shall I pray to change Thy will, my Father, until it accord to mine? But no, Lord, no; that shall never be. Rather, I pray Thee blend my human will with Thine. (HT: John MacArthur)

Today’s Quote (9/30/08)

John MacArthur, The Love of God: God loves because He is love; love is essential to who He is. Rather than viewing His love as proof of something worthy in us, we ought to be humbled by it. God’s love for the reprobate is not the love of value; it is the love of pity […]

Book Review: The Truth War

I finished reading John MacArthur’s book, The Truth War this morning — on the same day that the main headline in my newspaper (referring to the question of Roger Clemens’ supposed steroid usage) was, “Testimony hits no closer to the truth.” The headline is a revelation of the time in which we live. We tear […]
