8def7f2 En ninguna parte es la integridad tan decisiva como en el liderazgo de la iglesia, porque el lider espiritual debe mantener la integridad para ser un ejemplo confiable que todos puedan imitar. Pero hay muchos lideres que carecen de integridad y que son, por definicion, unos hipocritas. Nuestro Senor no tiene paciencia con estas personas. Los escribas y los fariseos fueron blanco frecuente de los acerbos ataques de Cristo a causa de su hipoc.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
3c4ec54 9Live joyfully with the wife whom you love all the days of your vain life which He has given you under the sun, all your days of vanity; for that is your portion in life, and in the labor which you perform under the sun. John F. MacArthur Jr.
1a70b9d Todas las cosas son puras para los puros, mas para los corrompidos e incredulos nada les es puro; pues hasta su mente y su conciencia estan corrompidas. TITO 1.15 El pecado es un tirano cruel. Infecta el alma, corrompe la mente, profana la conciencia, contamina los afectos y envenena la voluntad. Es el cancer destructor de la vida y condenador del alma que supura y crece en cada corazon humano no redimido como una gangrena incurable. Pero l.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
6fd3642 El que encubre sus pecados no prosperara; mas el que los confiesa y se aparta alcanzara misericordia. PROVERBIOS 28.13 Lo que es evidente es que la gente en nuestra cultura se ha vuelto muy buena en culpar del cambio tomando de chivos expiatorios a los padres, las decepciones de la infancia y otras disfunciones que escapan a su control. No importa cual es el problema que sufra, tanto si usted es un asesino canibal en serie o simplemente alg.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
5ed7010 Apart from hypocrites, there are two categories of the deceived in the church: the superficial and the involved. The superficial are the ones who call themselves Christians because, when they were little, they went to church or Sunday school, they got confirmed, or they "made a decision" for Christ. You may have heard someone, when he is getting baptized, say, "I received Christ when I was twelve, but my life was a mess after that, and now .. John F. MacArthur Jr.
5817e1f Como podemos vivir en una sociedad pagana de una manera que honre a Dios, de tal manera que no alienemos a las mismas personas que Dios quiere alcanzar con el evangelio? Debemos recordar dedicarnos a buenas obras, que las Escrituras dicen seran el resultado de nuestra salvacion. Pablo resume esto muy bien en Tito 3.8: < John F. MacArthur Jr.
92bf320 Porque no tenemos lucha contra sangre y carne, sino contra principados, contra potestades, contra los gobernadores de las tinieblas de este siglo, contra huestes espirituales de maldad en las regiones celestes. EFESIOS 6.12 ?Que era lo que realmente Pablo estaba atacando en 2 Corintios 10.4? La respuesta la dio claramente en el versiculo 5: <>. La palabra gr.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
5df71f3 18The LORD is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth. John F. MacArthur Jr.
5273c92 Estoy convencido de que estamos viviendo en una sociedad poscristiana, una civilizacion que esta bajo el juicio de Dios. Si esto suena un poco pesimista o cinica para usted, en realidad no lo es. Las Escrituras predijeron con exactitud tiempos como estos (vea 2 Timoteo 3.1-5, 13). Pero los propositos de Dios se cumplen, no importa como la gente se esfuerce vanamente en contra de El. Tito 2.11-12 nos asegura que la gracia de Dios aparece, tr.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
c108bb8 CAN'T GET NO SATISFACTION Some people in this world refuse to be satisfied. No doubt you've run into them at work, in your neighborhood, and even at church. It's always too stuffy in the room for them except when its too drafty. They're too busy except when they're bored to death; they always have too much responsibility or too little; and nothing is ever quite the way it ought to be, according to their way of thinking. As the song says, th.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
4f924c5 Pride is an illusion that curses greatness. The great are the ones who see their failings and work to overcome, not the ones who fancy themselves to be without weakness. And as long as you admit no weakness, you will never grow to your full strength. This was a rare gift in the ancient world; neither the Romans nor the Greeks even had a word in their vocabulary for humility. John F. MacArthur Jr.
82c2826 Solo el Espiritu Santo puede abrir los ojos ciegos y ablandar los corazones endurecidos para que reciban la Palabra. Y John F. MacArthur Jr.
b83c698 Desafortunadamente, hay mucha supersticion y confusion sobre el significado de la sangre de Cristo. Un popular libro escrito hace varios anos por un autor evangelico conocido sugiere que hay algo unico acerca de la quimica de la sangre de Cristo. Supuso que la sangre de Cristo no era sangre humana. En cambio, dijo, la sangre que corre por las venas de Jesus era la sangre de Dios. Otros cristianos han mal interpretado canciones conocidas ace.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
d0c6b30 La gracia no empuja a los pecadores contra su voluntad hacia Cristo; los conduce voluntariamente a El abriendo sus corazones en primer lugar. Los capacita para ver sus pecados como son y los faculta para despreciar lo que anteriormente amaban. John F. MacArthur Jr.
bbe72b9 Se da cuenta que incluso la fe es un regalo de Dios para el creyente? No podemos poner la fe al alcance de nuestros propios corazones o atraerla con solo nuestra fuerza de voluntad. Dios es quien abre nuestros corazones para creer. El arrepentimiento es algo que El concede por gracia (Hechos 11.18; 2 Timoteo 2.25). Creo John F. MacArthur Jr.
ac3867c The church will really change society for the better only when individual believers make their chief concern their own spiritual maturity, which means living in a way that honors God's commands and glorifies His name. Such a concern inherently includes a firm grasp on Scripture and an understanding that its primary mandate to us is to know Christ and proclaim His gospel. A godly attitude coupled with godly living makes the saving message of.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
e2743c8 Obedience is the basic definition of worship. Like obedience, worship is to be a way of life rather than just an exercise on Sunday. John F. MacArthur Jr.
49214e2 Proverbs 3:7-8 7Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD and depart from evil. 8It will be health to your flesh,a And strengthb to your bones. John F. MacArthur Jr.
23822fd When we give proper support to earthly government it demonstrates that we "fear God" and trust Him no matter how difficult and discouraging it is to live in an ungodly society. It shows others that we reverence Him as the Sovereign who is working all things according to His perfect plan. Finally," John F. MacArthur Jr.
5e9e76a No spiritual exercise is such a blending of complexity and simplicity. It is the simplest form of speech that infant lips can try, yet the sublimest strains that reach the Majesty on high. It is as appropriate to the aged philosopher as to the little child. It is the ejaculation of a moment and the attitude of a lifetime. It is the expression of the rest of faith and of the fight of faith. It is an agony and an ecstasy. It is submissive and.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
c5ad946 To see a spiritually dead sinner made alive in Christ Jesus by the power of the Spirit is to witness an actual miracle of God. John F. MacArthur Jr.
8f4aae8 To say "Lord, Lord" and then disobey is the moral equivalent of a Judas kiss." John F. MacArthur Jr.
53bf47c It's not at all surprising that Luke 4:28 says the people in the synagogue, "when they heard these things, were filled with wrath." Nothing is worse than spiritual pride, because it is a barrier people selfishly put up that separates them from their own salvation. The Lord had said, "You know I come to save, and this is it. But I can save only the poor, the prisoners, the blind, and the oppressed. It doesn't matter whether one is a Gentile .. John F. MacArthur Jr.
5bec843 People who want to see miracles today should stop following fake healers and start engaging in biblical evangelism. To see a spiritually dead sinner made alive in Christ Jesus by the power of the Spirit is to witness an actual miracle of God. John F. MacArthur Jr.
6d8325b It always comes to this, though not so violently. There's only one reason why people who know the truth of the gospel are not willing to repent and believe. It is because they will not see themselves as the poor, prisoners, blind, and oppressed. It has nothing to do with the style of music your church offers, the drama and skits you stage, or the quality of your laser light show. It has everything to do with the spiritual deadness and blind.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
a73b035 Y libertados del pecado, vinisteis a ser siervos de la justicia. ROMANOS 6.18 El Nuevo Testamento refleja esta perspectiva, ordenando a los creyentes a someterse a Cristo completamente y no solo como siervos contratados o empleados espirituales, sino como quienes pertenecen por entero a El. Se nos pide obedecerlo sin preguntas y seguirlo sin reclamos. Jesucristo es nuestro Amo, un hecho que reconocemos cada vez que lo llamamos <>. So.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
b545666 Al crear un evangelio sintetico, facilitan que las iglesias se llenen de personas que no se han arrepentido de sus pecados. En lugar de hacer al mundo como la iglesia, tales esfuerzos tienen solo el exito de hacer la iglesia mas como el mundo. Esta precisamente fue la ensenanza de Jesus en Marcos 4 para evitar esto. John F. MacArthur Jr.
34fc873 Y poderoso es Dios para hacer que abunde en vosotros toda gracia, a fin de que, teniendo siempre en todas las cosas todo lo suficiente, abundeis para toda buena obra. 2 CORINTIOS 9.8 A diferencia de las personas libres, los esclavos no tenian que preocuparse por encontrar algo que comer o un lugar donde dormir. Ya que sus necesidades estaban atendidas, ellos podian centrarse enteramente en servir al amo. Nuevamente, los paralelos con la vid.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
803c1c1 First, it speaks of Eve's fundamental equality with Adam. The woman was taken out of man. They shared the same essential nature. She was not a different kind of creature; she was of exactly the same essence as Adam. She was in no way an inferior character made merely to serve him, but she was his spiritual counterpart, his intellectual coequal, and in every sense his perfect mate and companion. John F. MacArthur Jr.
25fe7f9 Sean gratos los dichos de mi boca y la meditacion de mi corazon delante de ti, oh Jehova, roca mia, y redentor mio. SALMOS 19.14 El significado de la Palabra de Dios no es para nada oscuro o dificil de comprender como las personas hoy dia lo hacen ver. Admito que algunas cosas de la Biblia son dificiles de entender (2 Pedro 3.16), pero su verdad central y esencial es lo bastante sencilla como para que nadie se confunda con ella. < John F. MacArthur Jr.
d502497 El posmodernismo es en gran manera una reaccion en contra de la pasion desenfrenada del racionalismo de la modernidad. Pero muchas respuestas posmodernistas al racionalismo son una seria reaccion exagerada. A muchos posmodernistas pareciera entretenerles la nocion de que la irracionalidad es superior al racionalismo. En realidad, las dos maneras de pensar son absolutamente erradas e igualmente hostiles a la autentica verdad y al cristianism.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
6debcd3 La ortodoxia biblica abarca la ortopraxia. Tanto la doctrina recta como la vida recta son absolutamente esenciales y totalmente inseparables para el verdadero hijo de Dios. Esa es la ensenanza consecuente de Cristo mismo. Dijo entonces Jesus a los judios que habian creido en el: <> (Juan 8.31-32). Mas alla de e.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
200aa7e The true, exclusive, narrow gospel is hard enough to believe as it is. But to make things worse, from the start those promoting it were rejected people who had no standing or respect in society, like Paul, who preached this foolish message faithfully. The people proclaiming the most important and hard-to-believe truth are generally the ones the world despises, belittles, and ignores. In A.D. 178, Celsus wrote that Christians were the most v.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
80934c9 I read a story years ago that claimed to be about the most insignificant person ever born. His mother wrote his name on the birth certificate as Nosmo King. Somebody asked the mother where she got a name like that. It turned out the mother was illiterate, so she just copied down the No Smoking sign in the room and wrote it "Nosmo King." There is the ultimate nothing person, named after a No Smoking sign. If you speak the hard gospel of Jesu.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
43b917f Still, it is also characteristic of a true disciple of Jesus that he is not afraid of the world. Matthew 10:28: "And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell." There's no reason to be afraid, because, as a follower of Jesus, you know you will happily trade whatever perils you face in this world for the riches of your reward in the eternal world to com.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
0d6b76b El numero de pecados que una persona cometa no hace que su caso sea imperdonable (vea Santiago 5.20). John F. MacArthur Jr.
0c1c914 The Firstborn Over All Creation (Col. 1:15-20) This passage includes a powerful defense of Christ's deity. Apparently, a central component of the heresy that threatened the Colossian church was the denial of the deity of Christ. Ironically, throughout the centuries some cults have used the phrase "firstborn over all creation" (1:15) to undermine Christ's deity. The assumption is that if Jesus was born at creation, then He is more like us .. John F. MacArthur Jr.
d5bb6ab the will of God is not primarily a place. The will of God is not, first of all, for you to go there or work here. The will of God concerns you as a person. If you are the right you, you can follow your desires and you will fulfill His will. John F. MacArthur Jr.
fda586a If it is performed in a formal or customary and overly manner, you would be as good to omit it altogether; for the Lord takes our prayers not by number but by weight. When it is an outward picture, a dead carcass of prayer, when there is no life, no fervency in it, God does not regard it. Do not be deceived in this, it is a very common deception. It may be a man's conscience would be upon him, if he should omit it altogether. Therefore, whe.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
716e953 If you find a deadness and unaptness, an indisposition in you, you must lift up your souls to the Lord and not give over until you are quickened. And this is to perform the duty in such a manner as the Lord accepts, otherwise it is hypocritical performance; for this is hypocrisy, when a man is not willing to let the duty go altogether, nor yet is willing to perform it fervently, and in a quick and zealous manner. He that omits it altogether.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
152c046 Indeed, there is a counterfeit of love that often appears amongst those that are led by a spirit of delusion. There is commonly in the wildest enthusiasts a kind of union and affection that appears in them one towards another, arising from self-love, occasioned by their agreeing one with another in those things wherein they greatly differ from all others, and for which they are the objects of the ridicule of all the rest of mankind; which n.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
91f1e08 The most significant women in scripture were influential not because of their careers, but because of their character. The message these women collectively give is not about "gender equality"; it's about true feminine excellence. And this is always exemplified in moral and spiritual qualities rather than by social standing, wealth, or physical appearance." John F. MacArthur Jr.
5c5dd83 Do you know what the Spirit-filled life is? It is living every moment as though you are standing in the presence of Jesus Christ! John F. MacArthur Jr.
4f9d599 10For n"He who would love life And see good days, oLet him 3refrain his tongue from evil, And his lips from speaking deceit. 11Let him pturn away from evil and do good; qLet him seek peace and pursue it. 12For the eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, rAnd His ears are open to their prayers; But the face of the LORD is against those who do evil." John F. MacArthur Jr.
