The Danger of Overconfidence, Part 2 (#2)
How do you make hard decisions? Do you create a list of pros and cons? Do you seek counsel from a friend or loved one? How do you decide whether or not to do something when there’s no clear right or wrong answer? Well, today on GRACE TO YOU, John MacArthur lays out the biblical strategies you should use when navigating life’s gray areas . . . when there’s no clear biblical command about what you should do. Today’s lesson is part of his study titled . . . The Pitfalls of Christian Liberty
The Danger of Overconfidence, Part 2 (#1)
You’ve probably heard it said, “With great power comes great responsibility.” That’s certainly true of the freedom believers have in Christ. If you’re a follower of Jesus, you’ve been freed from ceremonial religious requirements . . . you’ve been freed from the penalty and power of sin . . . you’ve been freed to walk in newness of life. But, how do you use that freedom responsibly? The lesson you’re about to hear will help you use your freedom in Christ to serve others. That’s on GRACE TO YOU with John MacArthur.
The Danger of Overconfidence, Part 1 (#2)
Today, John MacArthur continues his series that looks at . . . The Pitfalls of Christian Liberty. Now, for most people, the topic of Christian liberty comes down to a pair of simple questions: What can I do? And, what can I not do? But John MacArthur’s going to show you why you should instead focus on what sets you apart from the rest of the world . . . and how to live in a way that points others to Christ on GRACE TO YOU.
The Danger of Overconfidence, Part 1 (#1)
You’ve probably noticed there are plenty of topics, that the Bible doesn’t specifically address . . . movies, social media, the stock market. But that doesn’t mean the Bible has nothing to say about how you should think about these things. Today, on GRACE TO YOU John MacArthur begins a series that will give you a biblical framework . . . help you make decisions—and avoid the subtle dangers—in those gray areas. The study’s titled . . . Pitfalls of Christian Liberty.
Examine Yourselves Whether You Be in the Faith, Part 1b
How do you respond when someone asks you how you know you’re a Christian? Do you think back to that moment when you prayed a prayer or went forward in a church service? Do you point to your baptism? John MacArthur will show you on this edition of GRACE TO YOU in a study he calls . . . Examine Yourself.
Examine Yourselves Whether You Be in the Faith, Part 1a
How can you really know that you’re saved? Can you be a Christian if you struggle with selfishness . . . integrity . . . purity . . . or some other sin? If you have doubts that your salvation is genuine, what should you do —what’s the first step? Those are questions you need to be able to answer—questions that John MacArthur will help you with in a study he begins today on GRACE TO YOU. He calls it . . . Examine Yourself.
Understanding the Wisdom of God (#2)
George Santayana said, “Almost every wise saying has an opposite one, no less wise, to balance it.” That’s the world’s philosophy for you. Every thought has value . . . no idea is better or worse than any other. Could that sort of philosophy find a home in today’s churches? Are we ever tempted to put human wisdom on par with God’s Word? Learn how to spot human wisdom . . . make sure you know why God’s wisdom is the only wisdom with life-changing power, both now and for eternity. Today, on GRACE TO YOU with John MacArthur.
Understanding the Wisdom of God (#1)
To what extent can human insight—even the greatest example if it—help you and your church minister to people’s deepest spiritual needs? Under what conditions is human wisdom instructive and helpful . . . and at what point does it exceed its usefulness? John MacArthur helps you answer those questions today on GRACE TO YOU. He calls his series . . . The Foolishness of God.
The Foolishness of God, Part 3b
Perhaps you’ve explained the gospel again and again . . . told friends about sin, God’s holiness, Jesus’ work of redemption, and the free gift of grace . . . and your message has been rejected. Why does that happen? Why are so many people so reluctant to embrace the good news of salvation? John MacArthur answers that question today on GRACE TO YOU.
Convincing Testimony to the Resurrection
Simon Greenleaf’s most important contribution to mankind was when he set out to examine the evidence for Christ’s Resurrection . . . and follow it wherever it led. After a thorough study, he concluded this: That there was more evidence supporting the Resurrection than just about any event in human history! Now what evidence did Greenleaf find . . .and what made is so persuasive? John MacArthur shows you today on GRACE TO YOU.
