The Starting Principle Of Discipleship The Necessary Components of Saving Faith The Gospel: Self Love Or Self Hate? The Gospel In Perspective Who’s Ashamed Of Whom? |
In this message John MacArthur continues to expound the truths found in Luke 9:23-26.
A quote from today’s sermon:-
And that’s really where it all eventually comes, this matter of who goes to heaven. It’s whether or not you’re ashamed of yourself or ashamed of Jesus and His gospel. That’s the issue. And you have, by the way, plenty of things to be ashamed of, plenty. You have a lifelong record of sin, unmitigated, unrestrained and unmixed with anything that is truly righteous. Every sinner ought to be totally ashamed of himself or herself. But I’ll tell you, there is someone you shouldn’t be ashamed of and that’s Jesus. What is to be ashamed of? Perfect holiness, perfect righteousness, perfect virtue, perfect goodness, perfect knowledge, wisdom, perfect compassion, perfect love, perfect mercy, perfect grace, perfect power, perfect justice…what is to be ashamed of?

“It is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous.” Rom; 2:13
MacArthur is verbose but leaves out the fact that a law has been added to the law that has increased the crucifxion of Jesus to the level of a unilateral accountable sin.
