Well,...I hold heartily agree with you on salvation. Well, only because its Biblical. <br /><br />Once a preacher understands I believe in Lordship, and sovereign grace, they stop asking me to speak in their fellowship. <br /><br />Of course once they know I like John MacArthur that is a double reason not to ask me to speak.<br /><br />On the other hand if the preacher knows I made it a policy to have women were dresses and preach against movies, etc. And preach the KJV 1611 is the very Word of God, then they would want me to preach, while at the same time they are against the teaching of Lordship and agree with Curtis and Shelton on salvation.<br /><br /><br />I need a new group of preachers you know.<br /><br />But I totally disagree with you on MacArthur about what you said "An ample portion of the significance MacArthur retains comes from his <br />compromise." I don't see it at all.Charles e.

Hi Will,

I know that. He's not a liberal evangelical. We're closer than most of the evangelicals and obviously even the fundamentalists, because I'm not as harsh on him as I was in this blog. However, I would like reception on other biblical truth. MacArthur preaches Lordship and grace that changes, but in so many cases cow-tows to profanity and worldliness. We're all inconsistent to some degree because of the flesh, but there is a difference between situational inconsistency and directional inconsistency. An ample portion of the significance MacArthur retains comes from his compromise. I would like him to change, out of love for him.Kent Brandenburghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13419354741455959191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20213892.post-90198458441346591922011-07-29T11:34:22.155-07:002011-07-29T11:34:22.155-07:00Kent,
finally something that you and John Macarth...Kent, <br />finally something that you and John Macarthur agree on! I thought I was reading The Gospel According to Jesus for a moment. <br /><br /> You're right to observe that if anyone truly is converted when presented with the sword of the lord gospel, it is not their response to this message but to whatever Bible is presented in it. I what is a product of this kind of gospel until the Bible truth of lordship arrested my soul to Jesus.Reforming Baptisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14846318789174330210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20213892.post-6454892346876546222011-07-29T06:59:50.265-07:002011-07-29T06:59:50.265-07:00Brother Brandenburg,
Why don't you tell us h...Brother Brandenburg, <br /><br />Why don't you tell us how you really feel?! <br /><br />I couldn't agree more with your assessment and separation from the SOTL. <br /><br />I was pretty certain that this was the position they took. I separated from them a long time ago and remain there. Having read what you wrote only confirmed my thought. <br /><br />I eagerly anticipate part 4 and your presentation. <br /><br />Respectfully Submitted, <br /><br />Br Steve<br /><br />Gal. 2:20philipians2511https://www.blogger.com/profile/17196287320434925537noreply@blogger.com
