My only thing is that Pastor John MacArthur is a Calvanist that believes that only the Elect will go to Heaven,
Don’t like that either.
I’m not sure if I’m calvinism or Dispensationalism. But here are some things I found interesting.
If God would have painted a yellow stripe on the backs of the elect I would go around lifting shirts. But since He didn’t I must preach “whosoever will” and when “whatsoever” believes I know that he is one of the elect. - Charles Spurgeon
I believe the doctrine of election, because I am quite sure that if God had not chosen me I should never have chosen him; and I am sure he chose me before I was born, or else he never would have chosen me afterwards; and he must have elected me for reasons unknown to me, for I never could find any reason in myself why he should have looked upon me with special love. -Charles Spurgeon
C.H. Spurgeon Autobiography (ed. Banner of Truth, 1962)
Charles Simeon’s (Calvinist) conversation with John Wesley (Arminian)
It is instructive in this connection to ponder Charles Simeon’s account of his conversation with John Wesley on December 10, 1784 (the date is given in Wesley’s journal):
Charles Simeon: “Sir, I understand that you are called an Arminian; and I have been sometimes called a Calvinist; and therefore I suppose we are to draw daggers. But before I consent to begin the combat, with your permission I will ask you a few questions.… Pray, Sir, do you feel yourself a depraved creature, so depraved that you would never have thought of turning to God, if God had not first put it into your heart?”
John Wesley: “Yes,” says the veteran, “I do indeed.”
Charles Simeon: “And do you utterly despair of recommending yourself to God by anything you can do; and look for salvation solely through the blood and righteousness of Christ?”
John Wesley: “Yes, solely through Christ.”
Charles Simeon: “But, Sir, supposing you were at first saved by Christ, are you not somehow or other to save yourself afterwards by your own works?”
John Wesley: “No, I must be saved by Christ from first to last.”
Charles Simeon: “Allowing, then, that you were first turned by the grace of God, are you not in some way or other to keep yourself by your own power?”
John Wesley: “No.”
Charles Simeon: “What, then, are you to be upheld every hour and every moment by God, as much as an infant in its mother’s arms?”
John Wesley: “Yes, altogether.”
Charles Simeon: “And is all your hope in the grace and mercy of God to preserve you unto his heavenly kingdom?”
John Wesley: “Yes, I have no hope but in him.”
Charles Simeon: “Then, Sir, with your leave I will put up my dagger again; for this is all my Calvinism; this is my election, my justification by faith, my final perseverance: it is in substance all that I hold, and as I hold it; and therefore, if you please, instead of searching out terms and phrases to be a ground of contention between us, we will cordially unite in those things wherein we agree.
@@NewLifeOfAlbanyGa He's also a Cessationist who does not believe in the Baptism and Gifts of the Holy Spirit.
@@jeffnasta4650 And I certainly disagree with him on that.
Great review, thanks!
RE Rev 4:1--
Writing about the actual event of the Rapture is different than making a typological reference to the Rapture.
Rev 4:1 definitely REFERS to the Rapture, but only as typology.
It definitely is not the literal Rapture of all the Bride of Christ, as only John is mentioned, no others.
But it IS typology of the Rapture. So it does refer to the Rapture, in my humble opinion.
Which do you think is best, McArthur or Believers Commentary? Can you do a review?
I’ve done reviews and I think comparisons on each. Believers maybe for me, but I like both
Have you checked out the BELIEVER’S BIBLE COMMENTARY by William MacDonald? Maybe do a review on that.
I thought I did a couple of years ago. It may have slipped thru the cracks. Thanks!
Just picked this one up after trying it out from the library. I think it pairs good with the MacArthur Commentary. MacArthur hits more heavily on Theology while the Believer's Commentary provides more spirituality and clarity in its commentary, particularly in a Jesus-centered inflection on OT scripture. I very much enjoy it.
@@wolfman7284 Having more than one commentary or study Bible is a good thing because God will lay on the heart of each writer different things. My pastor is David Jeremiah. When he came out with a study Bible, I looked up a passage in it, and the same one in MacArthur's. MacArthur had one line, and Jeremiah had a little paragraph. (Another time MacArthur had a paragraph, and Jeremiah had one sentence.) Together you can get a good and full understanding of a verse or passage. As you noted, a difference between MacArthur and Evans. They all complement each other.
It would have been better just to read the Bible. Just in the reading God can easily give a better understanding Himself.
That is true. But reading what a commentator says can help clarify difficult passages. After all, they make their living studying God's Word, so do not discount them completely.
Hello, I was hoping you could recommend a commentary most appropriate for me. I was raised in church so I'm familiar with a lot of the themes and stories, but have only recently started reading the Bible. God has really been blessing me as of late and I feel it's time I honor him by readying his word. I have been leaning toward the Tony Evans or Warren wiersbe 2 volume. I sampled the John Macarthur but found myself stopping often to look up a lot of the vocabulary. Would you recommend one of the two I mentioned or possibly another? I prefer to read the NIV it that makes a difference.
Wiersbe or Jay Vernon McGee
I’m a huge Tony Evans fan , His kingdom marriage series was the vessel which saved our marriage,
Recently finding John MacArthur , I haven’t stopped learning.
He’s extremely convicting.,, God Bless in Christ Jesus
@@TheAerovonsTony Evans does have GREAT teachings... but just be weary, the way in which he got with his current wife is very suspicious to me (she used to be married to a co-pastor that led with Evans at one point) .. and then the way it was announced that he was marrying her shocked his own children when he made it a spectacle on stage.
And now he's "stepped down due to an undisclosed sin." And they are talking about reinstating him& doing a church repentance so he can come back... All while keeping this mystery sin a secret from the congregation. He needs to come clean and repent properly before we can move forward with him.
Some of these comments that Iam reading is very disturbing, Maybe it shouldn't be because of the depravity of man!!!!!!
Love your channel🌺🌺😊
Please explain your thoughts on how to be saved. If you have done a video on it please share.
I’ve done a few. I don’t do links however.
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. Acts 16:31 Jesus lived a perfect life in our place, He died on a cross for our sins, and He rose from the dead for our justification. Believe in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus and you will be saved. Nothing more Nothing less by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves:it is the gift of God: not of works lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9. Verse 10 is our mission from God, not proof of eternal life. So I say place your faith and trust in Jesus Christ alone.
Which is a better bible features and commentary as being biblically sound
Biblically sound
God Is Triune
You disagree with them on how to be saved??? Can you explain to someone who has no experience with Pentecostals?
Oh or are you referring to MacArthur being Calvinist? I don’t know anything about Evans.
@@SaneNoMore Just Bible doctrine.
@@NewLifeOfAlbanyGa Thank you for replying but that didn’t clarify much for me. I was under the understanding that these two men were reliable in essential doctrines so your statement threw me for a loop hehe. I will have to assume you mean your soteriology is different I guess. As a traditional (some say Provisionist) Southern Baptist I am not personally a Calvinist like MacArthur nor am I fully Arminian (I believe Eternal Security to be biblical) So I guess technically I don’t believe you are saved the same way MacArthur does but I’ve just not heard it expressed that way before.
@@SaneNoMore Yes, I agree with them on much, disagree on some. Both are non or anti-pentecostal and I’m Penteocstal.
The rebel in me is loving the stand John MacArthur is making. But after reading Ezekiel 18-21. I’m starting to think He is in the wrong...... Thinking about the failure of our churches to influence and worst encourage the strange cultural trends that have influenced the country. we have caved and not take stands on the word, the worship, the pop music, the movies and strange gospels and philosophies that remove sin and hell, the government calling church nonessential could be a reckoning.... It may not be the government saying the church is irrelevant, but God via Rom 13 and Rev 3 saying the church is irrelevant and removing lamp stands..... just thinking. I learned about the Gen-Z “holy bible” and the emoji “holy bible” recently that helped me think this way.
John McCarthy is not the one that’s worthy to do anything
They're not KJV.
lmao. if you think that matters you really need help
@@christking85 changing the wording of vital doctrine scriptures does matter.
@@sinceremilkoftheword9754 your ignorance of Bible translations is funny. Yes ones like the passion translation change passages. Others do not. The kjv has mistranslations. You should really do some research and use non biased sources. Mike winger has videos about them. James white has videos and wrote one the best books called the king james controversy. Don't be ignorant.
@@christking85 I won't suffer garbage versions who attack the blood of Christ, or remove important words (like "Lord") frivilously. Such as in Colossians 1:14 and Romans 3:25. They muddy up the blood atonement through faith in Romans 3:25, they don't make it clear like the KJV that the faith must be in the blood in order to receive the atonement. You can read whatever you want. You can read the Quran for all I care. Call it scripture for all I care. But just like the Quran you're not gonna convince me that all of the Bible versions are scripture. They are perversions.
@@christking85 a new version makes Jesus a liar in John 7.
Which one would you suggest to get?
Tony
What pentacostal Bible commentary is the best?
Dakes Gods Plan for man maybe.
Jon courson's is my fav
Charismatic Chaos by John MacArthur
Pentecostal charismatics are apostates!
@@timmorelandthat was a good book. Also strange fire
John MacArthur said that a person could take the mark of the beast and still get into heaven. So I advise you to do more research 🧐. People have no idea what they be dealing with.
Where does he say that?
@@user-mj9ti4zz8c No answer and he didn't.
The video should not have been done. The thought should not have existed. The question should not have been considered. These two Bible commentaries should not have been compared. 🙄
Two completely different Pastors in every way, and that's just being nice and general about the statement. 😆
So why shouldn’t it have been done? They’re both popular, and most people studying Scripture can only afford 1, if that. So I try to give information so they won’t waste their money on something unneeded.
@@NewLifeOfAlbanyGa Reviewing it, my comment seems rude. But the point of it is that they are vastly different; personas, and theology, to say the least. Yes I realize that Evans is very popular, but that also applies to many others so that reason shouldn't apply here.
@@Mojo32 I had a certain purpose in mind for the review, which I explained. I wasn’t grading the type or validity of each mans theology.
I use to be a hardcore pre-trib Dispensationalist. The more I read the Bible and take it historically and prophetically I become more and more sure of the partial Preterist Post Mill position.
Seducing spirits and doctrines of devils. You have been a victim.
I'm not saying you're not saved.
I believe in this. Anything beyond is noise:
_But we do not want you to be uninformed, brethren, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve as do the rest who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus. For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord._
1 Thessalonians 4:13-17
This states, with clarity to me, that believers in Christ will not be swept away before the antichrist comes to power, but will have to endure that test until the coming of Jesus.
Mathew 24:22 explains that the days of the antichrist reign on earth will be cut short for the sake of the elect, for if they weren't, no one would survive. This proves, to me, even the elect will have to endure the tribulation.
John MacArthur said you can take the mark of the beast and still go to heaven .. and Tony evans is friends with all the big mega pastors and false teachers.. they're both in false doctrine , Sir check your spirit you are promoting wolves in sheep's clothing. These pastors are your idols, YOU SHOULD PROMOTE THE WORD OF GOD ONLY
Nah. I just learn where they’ve learned a little bit, discard the rest. God bless!
@@NewLifeOfAlbanyGa Your promoting both men on your channel. Who don't stand firm in the word of God though.
2 John 1:9-11
I’m not a fan of this guy and his kjv stuff but honestly him showing these commentaries you can’t hate on him about. Especially John MacArthur who is a great pastor.
@@thomasK411 John MacArthur said you can take the mark of the beast and go to Heaven which is false and will take everyone straight to hell with him if they do not REPENT AND BELIEVE THE TRUTH
Revelation 14:11 (KJV) And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
@@charlesmiller3496 Please site where and when he said this. It never happened.
Tony Evans walks in places MacArthur spits at .
More John MacArthur worship
Got some examples? (By the way, I do like both of them.)
With all due respect to Dr. Evans, theologically speaking, he is not worthy to carry John Macarthur's chamber pot.
Disrespectful
John MacArthur fanboy smh. This is what happens when John MacArthur is an idol😔
Filthy comment.
Microcephaly is a real condition but there is hope for you, OP. Hang in there!!
Paul taught against this very kind of foolishness in. 1 Corinthians 3. Sounds like idolatry to me.
Tony Evans is a false teacher
Then you don't know the truth. If you do, you wouldn't be making this comment.
It’s obvious you don’t know the truth
John MacArthur’s ignorance of ancient Christianity and the Church Fathers is shocking ... his brand of hatred and slander drove me to the Catholic Church. Praise be!
That’s sad. You went to false teaching just because of a pastor. Get that pastor off of God’s level.
Really? I have heard him refer to many, many church fathers, and of ancient Christianity. Is it hatred to warn sinners of their sins? Jesus did, so He must be the biggest, hate-filled person in history according to you. His message is a message of care and love.
@@OrondeBMacArthur won't leave.
@@user-mj9ti4zz8cMacArthurs " ministry" is called Grace to You but after hearing and reading him, it should be renamed "Shame on You" Ministries. MacArthurism is a cult.
From what you shared it sounds like John MacArthur's commentary might be a good first choice for me because I am so analytically minded. It is a frustrating trait for myself and those around me but it is how God made me.
I do think Tony Evan's would be a great compliment to that to help me see things more practically.
I would be interested to hear your thoughts on how the Moody commentary compares to these.
I will be purchasing the Kindle version of whatever I do get. Hopefully they did a good job with the conversion.
I’ve done a comparison of the Moody with them!
