I go to John Macarthur church, but it is cold and dead, he a wonderful preacher, but is sadly lacking the understanding of the Holy Spirit today. I too receive the Holy Spirit speaking in other tongues. Reason why I go to his church had bad experience in other Pentecostal church and decided I need the authority of the word and hearing him on the radio he seemed very sound biblically. No church is perfect. That is the one area he is missing it. Does not believe the Holy Spirit speaking in tongues is for us to day or miracles or healing he said it was only for the apostles, to start the church we have the word and do not need anything else. He so wrong. Instead of batching him. We Holy SPirit christians should join forces and pray and intercede for John Macarthur receiving the gift of the Holy spirit.

Acts 19: 1 tells it all. John Macarthur is an Appollos he needs to be enligtned with the Holy Spirit.
1And it happened, while Apollos was at Corinth, that Paul, having passed through the upper regions, came to Ephesus. And finding some disciples 2he said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?”
So they said to him, “We have not so much as heard whether there is a Holy Spirit.”
3And he said to them, “Into what then were you baptized?”
So they said, “Into John’s baptism.”
4Then Paul said, “John indeed baptized with a baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe on Him who would come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.”
5When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6And when Paul had laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied. 7Now the men were about twelve in all.

Your use of the term “once saved always saved” is an indication that you have a misunderstanding of the biblical doctrine of eternal salvation. Given this post is not a platform to discuss your doctrinal differnces with John MacArthur — or mine for that matter, I wll not attempt to enlighten you. Lastly, if you are suggesting that John MacArthur is a “heretic” you should probably move along to find another blog. Plenty of folks — far more credible than the likes of you (or me) would find such a claim preposterous.

Paul,

Thank you for visiting. This article was not about “speaking in tongues” nor was it about “the gathering up of the elect” after his coming. You may well have your differing opinion.

The article was about placing more weight on experience rather than the sure Word of God. This is a sound warning to Christians to guard against “allowing our experience and our own subjective thoughts and imaginations to eclipse the authority and the certainty of the more sure Word.”

I’d be hard pressed to find the Apostles, or the early church Fathers taking issue with that.

Jasmine,

This piece was about “spiritual revelation” not the book of Revelation. Revelation 3:10 is used to support the pretrib rapture argument and this post is about false teachers and lying prophets.

I realize that John MacArthur’s view on dispensationalism is not popular among those in the Reformed camp. Truth be told, I am not sure I agree with him either. However, in most every other area, he is as solid as they get. So, I’ll let him have his pretrib beliefs and I won’t, as they say, throw out the baby with the bath water!

Thank you for stopping by. God bless you.
