Our Lord Jesus Christ gave gifts to men for the building up of the body of Christ. The house of God has a responsibility to teach the whole body of Christ freely. The church leaders seem to be lacking in teaching theology or encouraging the teachers in the church to freely teach theology to the congregation the whole body of Christ in a church setting. They seem to be lighting a candle and putting it under a bed only for a select special class of people who can afford the cost of the coarse. Freely give what you have freely received. I thank brother John for all the free teaching on you tube it has been a blessing to me as I discern through the Spirit that he correctly devides the word of God. My comments are based on UK churches who tickle my ears for 20 minutes on a Sunday period.
@@samuelmccafferty787 because it's true. I've had a number of friends attend and bring back horror stories. Not to mention what's already publicly known about the school and their habit of hiring teachers that were educated at that very same school. The MacArthur version of Reformed Christianity is full of legalism and they cast off anyone who doesn't agree with John.... Who isn't a real Ph.D BTW but calls himself Dr. Anyways
@@Justinsatiable that’s interesting, I’ll look I to that. Do you have any greater seminary recommendations that either you or those close to you find more amiable.
@@samuelmccafferty787 I think any of the mainstream seminaries like Ashbury, Trinity, Westminster, Cromwell, Fuller, Ashland, Dallas are all good. I highly recommend state school seminaries also such as Chicago, Michigan, etc.
Pastor John - I have a question. Can someone go through seminary without the intention of becoming a pastor? Obviously I'm a girl, but I am so desperate to learn more of scripture, and I have such a hunger to study and read, but I do not wish to lead in church or become a pastor. What should I do? Should I just go to a theology school? Please help!!
It is not biblical for women to be ordained as pastors anyway. Women are allowed in seminary studies, though not divinity courses, which are only reserved for those who have pastoral calling.
Captain Obvious Captain Obvious Hiya. I know it's not biblical, that's why I said "obviously I'm a girl" 😂 I was just asking about getting proper theological training without becoming a pastor or leading. What's a divinity course? Is that different to theology?
@@Emilysafe It's Master of Divinity or people usually call it MDiv. It's pastoral training for people who actually have a calling to be a full time minister, as a preacher.
James sounds like a MORMON. ALL people die because of Adam and Eve's sin. Each person must choose life ( John 14:6) or face eternity away from God. ( Rev. 20:15)
All that matters is Dispensationalism as Christianity is being destroyed at this point. it's something to take very seriously because irreconcilable divisions are forming. A new sort of paganistic 'Blood Moon Christianity' is taking place where myths and the creation itself is worshiped. Land, politics, and idolatry is at its core. Dispensationalism is the 'ground zero' of all this and it's a crisis at this point.
+TakeSomeAdvice I believe the "The Crisis" at this point is when Mr. MacArthur tells a questioner "Taking the mark of the beast can/will be forgiven" . Our Savior told us "Be not deceived". That being said... Our Creator gave us the sun, moon, stars for signs. appointed times. etc. It seems to me, watching the moon might be much more valuable, to a child of God in Crist, and him crucified, than watching John MacArthur
Our Lord Jesus Christ warned us about the leaven of the Pharisees and of Herod. The Governments leaven in the name of diversity. The religious church has embraced the leaven of diversity. It seems to be having a domino effect through most churches. Especially when church leaders gather together in unity but respect their diversity in doctrines. They oppress truth in the name of love and put themselves above reproach making them elite in the name of ecumenicalism. It will only get worse. May the Lord grant them wisdom.

Which is the best Seminary or University for Intercultural Studies / Missions?
I need help to choose a PhD program in Intercultural studies.
Could anyone recommend a seminary in the UK that has the values that Pastor John is referring to.
I would advise going to a much better school than what John runs. TMS is a cult, not a school.
@@Justinsatiable why do you say that?

Yes you can do its word of God Does God said only men can come to me or understand me ? Study word of God its treasure of our soul ⚘

@@CWJ0725 but why women can't do MDiv? don't they need to exegete too when preparing lessons for children?
John did you know Jesus actually saves from the edenic death sentence and not eternal conscious Burning?
Your mum
