| 654f092 | Una profecia proveniente de Dios fue siempre verdadera y congruente con las Escrituras. Por | 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. | ||
| 297aa65 | Christian could not help smiling, | Helen L. Taylor | ||
| 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. | ||
| b94b68b | Certainly no one should take delight in disputes over minor points. It is undoubtedly true that the regulative principle has occasionally been misused in that way. An obsession with applying any principle down to the smallest detail can easily become a destructive form of legalism. But the principle of sola scriptura as it applies to worship is nevertheless worth defending fiercely. | 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. | ||

| 43d8b53 | Desafortunadamente, la iglesia visible de hoy, esta repleta de gente que ha decidido que el discernimiento biblico, los limites doctrinales, y la autoridad de la verdad divinamente revelada son reliquias desgastadas de otros tiempos. Estan cansados de la pelea por la verdad, y (en efecto) ya han cesado unilateralmente su resistencia. Como hemos observado desde el comienzo, los cristianos de hoy, en realidad parecen estar mas afligidos acerc.. | John F. MacArthur Jr. | ||
| fb2f582 | Timothy was to instruct the women to "adorn themselves with proper clothing." "Adorn" is from kosmio (), from which we derive our English word cosmetic. It means "to arrange," "to put in order," or "to make ready." A woman must prepare herself properly for the worship service. Part of that preparation involves the wearing of "proper clothing." "Proper" comes from kosmeo (), the adjectival form of kosmio (), and could be translated "well-ord.. | John F. MacArthur Jr. | ||
| a88f5c3 | But she just tried to push the blame off onto the serpent: "The woman said, "the serpent deceived me, and I ate" Gen 3:13. That was true enough 1Tim 2:14, but the serpent's guilt did not justify her sin. Again, James 1:14 stands as a reminder that whenever we sin, it is because we are drawn away by our own lust. No matter what means Satan may use to beguile us into sin -- no matter how subtle his cunning--- the responsibility for the deed i.. | John F. MacArthur Jr. | ||
| a849b4e | Through the centuries, tens of thousands of copies and thousands of translations have been made (transmission), which did introduce minute errors. Because there is an abundance of existing ancient Old Testament and New Testament manuscripts, however, the exacting science of textual criticism has been able to reclaim the content of the original writings (revelation and inspiration) to the extreme degree of 99.99 percent, with the remaining o.. | John F.

| 44ff19d | Naomi's return caused no small stir. Scripture says, All the city was excited because of them; and the women said, Is this Naomi? Naomi means pleasant, and in an earlier time it must have been a perfect description of Naomi. The fact that so many women remembered her and were so glad to see her suggests that she had once been a gregarious soul, beloved by all who knew her. But now her life was so colored with sadness that she told the other.. | John F. MacArthur Jr. | ||

At the birth of this child, the women of Bethlehem gave a blessing to Naomi as well: Bless be the Lord, who has not left you this day without a close relative; and may his name be famous in Israel! And may he be to you a restorer of life and a nourisher of your old age; for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you th.. | John F. MacArthur Jr. | ||
| f2787e2 | In the Tabernacle there were no seats. The Israelites didn't go there to sit and be ministered to, and they certainly didn't go there for entertainment. They went there to worship God and serve Him. If they had a meeting for any other purpose, they had it somewhere else. | John F. MacArthur Jr. | ||

| 4b23ee4 | It is impossible to make sense of the doctrine of original sin if we ignore this principle of Adam's headship. Ultimately, it is impossible to make sense of Scripture at all without understanding this vital principle. In an absolutely crucial sense, even the truth of the gospel hinges on this very same idea of representative headship. Scripture says that Adam's headship over the human race is an exact parallel of Christ's headship over the .. | John F. MacArthur Jr. | ||

| 3537003 | To acknowledge that there are such fundamental differences between the genders, and that men an women were designed for different roles, many not correspond with modern feminist sensibilities, but this is after all, what God's own Word says.

| dcea0e8 | To promulgate a corrupted notion of the Holy Spirit and His work is nothing less than blasphemy, because the Holy Spirit is God. He is to be exalted, honored, and adored. Along with the Father and the Son, He is to be glorified at all times for all He is and all He does. He is to be loved and thanked by those whom He indwells. But for that to occur, He must be worshipped in truth. | John F. MacArthur Jr. | ||

He creates spiritual life--regenerating sinners through the gospel of Jesus Christ and transforming them into children of God. He sanctifies them, equips them for service, produces fruit in their lives, and empowers them to please their Savior. He.. | John F. MacArthur Jr. |
