"...if anyone makes the assistance of grace depend on the humility or obedience of man and does not agree that it is a gift of grace itself that we are obedient and humble, he contradicts the Apostle who says, "What have you that you did not receive?" (1 Cor. 4:7), and, "But by the grace of God I am what I am" (1 Cor. 15:10). (Council of Orange: Canon 6)
We are a community of confessing believers who love the gospel of Jesus Christ, affirm the Biblical and Christ-exalting truths of the Reformation such as the five solas, the doctrines of grace, monergistic regeneration, and the redemptive historical approach to interpreting the Scriptures.

I so appreciate someone like Pastor John MacArthur who takes the opportunities given to him and speaks boldly about Christ. Here he is doing so in the midst of the mass confusion around him on the Larry King show (from a few years back). - JS

I applaud Dr. MacArthur for his concise, insightful, and knowledgeable answers, but the mindless chatter of the other panel members almost makes this unlistenable.

It always comes back to one's view of scripture. God has used John's preaching & teaching to open my eyes to the truth and power of scripture. Notice how MacArthur answered the questions based upon what the Word of God actually says, instead of basing them upon emotion or opinion. That's the infinite contrast between John & the rest of the panel. That's the difference between John and most "pastors" on the planet.
