Is it 'too late' for America to be spared God's judgment? John MacArthur gives warning
Christian Post ^ | 3/30/21 | Michael Gryboski

Posted on 04/01/2021 9:34:53 AM PDT by Roman_War_Criminal

California megachurch Pastor John MacArthur spoke about the possibility that the United States is already under judgment for its acceptance of progressive sexual ethics, among other things, during his Palm Sunday sermon.

MacArthur preached a sermon at Grace Community Church of Sun Valley titled “Chosen in Him,” mainly focused on Mark 12 and the passage commonly known as the Parable of the Vineyard Owner.

The parable speaks of a vineyard owner who allowed tenants to oversee his vineyard, only to have them take control of it and kill everyone the owner sent to collect on what they grew.

“What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others. Haven’t you read this passage of Scripture: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes?’” concluded the parable, as rendered by the New International Version.

Yeah we are and the fallout is going to be horrific I think.

Christians and fence-sitters had better figure it out soon.

It’s a false theology. Advocates of it make it sound like a “pact” of sorts. Living a life of sin and claiming Christianity isn’t going to get you far with The Lord, but there is also the matter of forgiveness and sin.

I guarantee you John Mac sins every day - like the rest of us.

What is lordship salvation?

He’s a great warrior for Christ.
Disclaimer that I do not agree 100% with all of his theological points, but he holds nothing back and is truly on fire for Christ.

I think the fact that he gets more angry letters from so-called pastors shows he’s excellent at exposing false doctrines and heretics.

I view it the same way.

We can’t ever live up to His Standards.
Thank God Jesus did it for us!

"California megachurch Pastor John MacArthur spoke about the possibility that the United States is already under judgment for its acceptance of progressive sexual ethics.

Wow, this guy seems to be a little late to the fight.. Our Preacher here in Appalachia has been raging about it for several years now.. And other things as well, including the fact that our government is wholeheartedly embracing the left's agenda..

To bad we don't have someone like Abraham to negotiate with the Lord in our behalf, like he did for Sodom.. But, now that I think about it, that didn't work out too well for Sodom... So...Who knows.

He’s been talking about it for awhile now.
I think the drama associated with his latest sermon is that it is now past the point of no return.

I honestly don’t even worry about it anymore.
We’re going down one way or another. It’s just a matter of when.

Noah,Daniel and Job,
Is there a common Thread or
3 separate and distinct
“Troubles?”
.
They came thru it as;
Shadrack,
Meshack and
Abednego.

The Lord will provide.

Okay,RWC.
The thing that struck me in it was the “Time” element,
Which was mentioned.
Free Will and Gods
Sovereignty were not.
We are “in” time,,,
God is not.
.
Fascinating

” I love John and listen to his sermons at least 5-6 hrs. a day. “

You need to get out more.

I hesitate to say;
“I’m Saved.”
.
I don’t deserve it.
But I want Salvation.
.
Is the “Wanting it”,
Striving toward it key.

.
Fascinating

I have to agree with you.. I can’t see us coming back from this, unless there is a repentance and revival like history has never seen.

It is to late for America as God’s judgment has now begun. When the nations courts and leaders and judges and government condemns Christians and the word of God and pass laws supporting sexual perversity and immorality and the people support it in the majority and elect and appoint sinful people, it is too late. Is it not clear? Joe Beden and Kamalah Harris are a judgment on the nation. Corona virus and letting these leaders dictate what they want is a judgment. These evil sinful people and the deep state will destroy this nation. The sword is coming. God will protect His believers and certainly at some point Jesus will call out from Heaven and the Church and the Holy Spirit will be pulled away from this world to be with Jesus in the twinkling of an eye. But this nation is now under judgment. Any believing Christian can see how plain it is. Cities burning, riots and anarchy, laws calling good evil and evil good. Lawless people in power passing laws to keep themselves in power and not protect the nation. It is to late and the hour is at hand.

Why do you say that?

You don’t know me or my living situation!

What if I was disabled, terminal, recovering from an accident, retired, a widower, recently lost a child, etc.?

What if I listened to sermons instead of watching TV?

As it so happens, I am in a situation where wise words from a wise teacher are bringing me great comfort. I really wish I could get out more, but can’t.
