45543db Paul suffered and struggled mightily in the service of his faith. Perhaps you could argue that he simply wasn't the best example after which to model our own behavior. What if we look at the ultimate example of a Christian teacher and expositor, Christ Himself? Surely then we'll see how to handle this unappealing message of a crucified Savior whom only the dregs of society preached. Surely at last we'll see a glimmer of success. But by worl.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
8e10560 it is helpful to note that every time angels spoke in the Bible, they did so in a real language that was understandable to those to whom they spoke. Nothing about the phrase "tongues of angels" in 1 Corinthians 13:1 justifies the modern practice of irrational babble." John F. MacArthur Jr.

5ebcf6d Transigir es bueno y necesario en la mayoria de las relaciones humanas. En el matrimonio, por ejemplo, las parejas deben ceder con frecuencia para lidiar con los desacuerdos respecto a la preferencia y a la opinion. En el gobierno secular, los compromisos son necesarios a veces para poder sobrepasar los obstaculos ejecutivos o legislativos. En los negocios, transigir es importante para cerrar un trato. La persona que rehusa ceder en cualqui.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
a921283 La justificacion Mas por el estais vosotros en Cristo Jesus, el cual nos ha sido hecho por Dios sabiduria, justificacion, santificacion y redencion. 1 CORINTIOS 1.30 En su sentido teologico, la justificacion es un termino forense o puramente legal. En el se describe lo que Dios declara acerca del creyente, no lo que El hace para cambiar el creyente. De hecho, la justificacion no efectua ningun cambio real en absoluto en la naturaleza o el c.. John F. MacArthur Jr.

91c81d4 8The LORD is merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy. 9He will not always strive with us, Nor will He keep His anger forever. 10He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor punished us according to our iniquities. John F. MacArthur Jr.

John F. MacArthur Jr.
73c152b The manner in which God laid our iniquity on Him was that God treated Him as if He had committed every sin ever committed by every person who would ever believe, though He was perfectly innocent of any sin. God did so to Him, so that wrath being spent and justice satisfied, God could then give to the account of sinners who believe, the righteousness of Christ, treating them as if they had done only the righteous acts of Christ. In both case.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
50959d6 16that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, 17that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height-- 19to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. John F. MacArthur Jr.

04f5d21 Una esperanza viva Bendito el Dios y Padre de nuestro Senor Jesucristo, que segun su grande misericordia nos hizo renacer para una esperanza viva, por la resurreccion de Jesucristo de los muertos. 1 PEDRO 1.3 Segun 1 Pedro 1.3-4, cada cristiano nace de nuevo para una esperanza viva, es decir, una esperanza que es perpetuamente viva, una esperanza que no puede morir. Pedro parece estar haciendo un contraste con la mera esperanza humana, que .. John F. MacArthur Jr.
e886c05 Continual, persistent, incessant prayer is an essential part of Christian living, and it flows out of dependence on God. John F. MacArthur Jr.
38f010e two brief, classic prayers written by Thomas Cranmer for the Church of England's first Book of Common Prayer: Almighty and most merciful Father, we have erred and strayed from Your ways, like lost sheep. We have followed too much the devises and desires of our own hearts. We have offended against Your holy laws. We have left undone those things that we ought to have done, and we have done those things that we ought not to have done, and the.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
e13ef38 Unceasing, incessant prayer is essential to the vitality of a believer's relationship to the Lord and his ability to function in the world. John F. MacArthur Jr.
cb939c1 Human nature really hasn't changed much throughout history; shame and honor were as big a deal in the ancient world as they are today. Back in the ninth century B.C., the epic poet Homer wrote, "The chief good was to be well spoken of, the chief evil, to be badly spoken of by one's society." In the first century A.D., the apostle Paul ministered in a shame-sensitive, honor-seeking culture, shamelessly preaching a shameful message about a pu.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
e2e5507 For believers to doubt their security is to question God's integrity and power. It is to add the merit of human works to the gracious, unmerited work of God. And it is to add self-trust to trust in our Lord, because if salvation can be lost by anything that we can or cannot do, our ultimate trust must obviously be in ourselves rather than in God. John F. MacArthur Jr.

66d75de A certain amount of healthy and balanced concern with current trends in government and the community is acceptable, as long as we realize that such interest is not vital to our spiritual growth, our righteous testimony, or the advancement of the kingdom of Christ. Above all, the believer's political involvement should never displace the priority of preaching and teaching the gospel. Believers John F. MacArthur Jr.

7752283 Anger that is sin, on the other hand, is anger that is self-defensive and self-serving, that is resentful of what is done against oneself. It is the anger that leads to murder and to God's judgment (Matt. 5:21-22). Anger that is selfish, undisciplined, and vindictive is sinful and has no place even temporarily in the Christian life. But anger that is unselfish and is based on love for God and concern for others not only is permissible but c.. John F. MacArthur Jr.

John F. MacArthur Jr.
d6f0658 Like the old knights, always in warfare, not always on their steeds dashing forward with their lances in rest to unhorse an adversary, but always wearing their weapons where they could readily reach them, and always ready to encounter wounds or death for the sake of the cause which they championed. Those grim warriors often slept in their armour; so even when we sleep, we are still to be in the spirit of prayer, so that if perchance we wake.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
76e14e0 Y se difundio su fama por toda Siria; y le trajeron todos los que tenian dolencias, los afligidos por diversas enfermedades y tormentos, los endemoniados, lunaticos y paraliticos; y los sano.

Nada de lo que el mundo pagano entero sacrifica a sus idolos d.. John F. MacArthur Jr.

Or lest I be poor and steal, And profane the name of my God." John F. MacArthur Jr.

fb64e1a The Bible is God's infallible Word, the only rule of faith and practice. John F. MacArthur Jr.
f3e0dd0 They follow the argumentation of the Declaration of Independence, which declares that life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are divinely endowed rights. Therefore those believers say such rights are part of a Christian worldview, worth attaining and defending at all costs, including military insurrection at times. But such a position is contrary to the clear teachings and commands of Romans 13:1-7. So the United States was actually bo.. John F. MacArthur Jr.
