The Believer and Indwelling Sin, Part 2
Winston Churchill once said, “Success is not final. Failure is not fatal. It is the courage to continue that counts.” A good thought to keep in mind as you battle against sin. Sometimes you will defeat it . . . other times, sin will batter and bruise you. But the question is . . . do you have the drive to keep fighting your sinful flesh? If you don’t, what does that say about your spiritual condition? Questions to keep in mind today on GRACE TO YOU with John MacArthur.
The Believer and Indwelling Sin, Part 1b
Every day you face a decision with eternal consequences. Of course, I’m not talking about deciding what to wear to work or what to eat for breakfast. I’m talking about making the choice either to go to battle against attitudes and actions that contradict God’s law . . . or to allow sin to control you. Where do you stand in that war? How can you fight it more effectively? Consider that today on GRACE TO YOU withJohn MacArthur.
The Believer and Indwelling Sin, Part 1a
One theologian has said that holiness starts where justification ends . . . and if it doesn’t start, you can suspect that justification never started either. What does that mean for you and me? Well, if you don’t see holiness in a professing believer, it could be that person really is not a Christian. But does being holy mean a that you never sin . . . or hardly ever do? John MacArthur tackles that issue today, as he considers the question . . . Why Do I Still Sin?—here GRACE TO YOU.
Resurrection - The Key to Everything (#2)
Tomorrow—Good Friday —will be a day of sorrow for many, many people . . . as they mourn the shame and unspeakable suffering Jesus endured on the cross. Yet what followed His sacrifice is so remarkable—so monumental—only the sinless Son of God could accomplish it. You’ll see that today on GRACE TO YOU as John MacArthur continues his study called Easter Through the Eyes of God.
Looking at the Cross from God’s Perspective (#2)
The story’s told of three workers who helped build St. Paul’s Cathedral in London. Asked what they were doing, one said he was cutting stone . . . another said earning a wage. The third, though, said, “I’m helping build a beautiful cathedral.” Three men . . . three perspectives. Well, perhaps you’ve heard several takes on the Crucifixion over the years, like that of the apostles or the thief on the cross. But have you ever considered God’s perspective on the death of His Son? That’s John MacArthur’s focus today on GRACE TO YOU.
Looking at the Cross from God’s Perspective (#1)
If you’re standing on a busy street, and you ask 20 people to describe what they see . . . you’ll probably get 20 different answers. And while each perspective may be helpful . . . they’re not all equal. The reality is . . . the more you see . . . the better your perspective. That was never truer than at the crucifixion of Jesus. It can be helpful to see the cross from the disciples’ perspective, Pilate’s, even from those crucified with Jesus. But have you ever considered the perspective of God Himself? With that in mind, John MacArthur begins a series today titled . . . Easter Through the Eyes of God here on GRACE TO YOU.
Complete in Christ (#2)
How exactly do you become more Christlike? Is it something God does to you, or do you play a role in your sanctification? And at the moment of salvation do you receive everything you need to grow in Christlikeness? John MacArthur’s digging into those questions in his current study here on GRACE TO YOU.
The Marks of Spiritual Unity, Part 2
If you’re a Christian, you probably strive to love everyone in your church. But perhaps there are people who you’re not on the best terms with.Now, when you see those people next, what should you do—force yourself to smile and invite them over? Or are there truths you can cling to—that will fuel a genuine love and affection for every member of Christ’s body? Find out today on GRACE TO YOU as John MacArthur continues his series called . . . A Plea for Unity
The Exclusiveness of the Gospel, Part 2-1
Today it seems that many churches encourage their congregations to trust their own thinking - not the Bible - about who God saves . . . who's going to heaven . . . what the requirements are for salvation. In today's edition of "Grace to You", John MacArthur's going to explain the reasons that people try - futility - to improve on the gospel.
