I donāt know too much about Jeff Durbin. From the relatively little Iāve heard, I thought he was a man of character, but watching his disrespectful and slanderous handling of John MacArthurās teaching in this podcast episode actually brought tears to my eyes. I couldnāt finish it. I donāt know the motives in the hearts of these men that would cause them to post such an egregious misrepresentation of MacArthurās beliefs, but a clear-thinking person would actually have to work to butcher his meaning and miss it this badly. To accuse such a faithful and consistent man of āping-ponging,ā being inconsistent, and not making sense, and perhaps even most arrogant and dishonoring of all, to attribute MacArthurās bold action of defying the government to obey God during COVID of him being inconsistent to his own eschatological beliefs and behaving as though he held theirs is truly appalling and petty behavior. The sarcastic and disrespectful responses seen here in this clip are shocking. If these men didnāt actually know why MacArthur taught what he did, they would have been far better off to stay quiet and seek out the answers from the over 50 years of clear and faithful teaching that MacArthur left behind. They could have found the answers within minutes. Instead, we get this. Shameful.

Helen Roseveare, a missionary who faced intense suffering and persecution during her 20 years of service in the Congo, shares one of the times that she saw God answer prayer in a most unexpected way: "I went to have prayers with our orphanage children as I did every day, and any of the children wanted gathered around me for prayer time, and I'd give them different things to pray about. And this particular day, I told the children of this tiny baby and asked them to pray for the nurses that they would stay awake all night to keep that baby warm. If the baby got cold, it would die. I mentioned that the baby had a 2-year-old sister who was crying because her mommy had died. I mentioned the burst hot water bottle. During prayer time, different children prayed for different things, and then one little 10-year-old girl, Ruth, she prayed in the usual blunt way of our African children, 'Please, God, send us a hot water bottle. Now, God, it'll be no good tomorrow. Send it this afternoon. Now, if it comes tomorrow, the baby will be dead.' I'm sort of swallowing hard, and she said, 'While you're about it, God, would you send a dolly for the little 2-year-old sister, so she'll know that Jesus really loves her?' And that afternoon, the parcel came. It was the first parcel I ever, I've been out there four years, I'd never had a parcel from home. And despite the fact I live on the equator, somebody packing that parcel had been prompted by God to put in a hot water bottle, and a child from my Bible class at home had put in a dolly for a little girl. And it came that afternoon in answer to a 10 year-old child's prayer, and the amazing thing was, you know, that parcel had been on the way five months to get to us. It had left England in July, and it came that afternoon, cause a child prayed."

'Pistol Pete' Maravich sharing his testimony of faith in Jesus Christ in 1987 less than one year before his death at the age of 40: "I want all of you to know this tonight about Peter Maravich. You may never have heard of me. It makes no difference. I'm just one person on this earth saved by the grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ. I want you to know this, that the change that came into my life was Jesus Christ. It was not winning. I won all my life. I won every trophy, award, everything you can think of, but every time I won something, I wanted something more. I had to win again. It wasn't money, because money'll buy you everything but happiness. It'll pay your fare at every place but Heaven. Material thingsāI've driven everything some of you strive for from Rolls Royces to BMWs to Mercedes to Porsches. It wasn't religion because in the name of religion, Jesus Christ was placed upon that cross. And the purest thing about Christianity is the fact that it's your choice. You can't work. You can't earn. I knew that, and I understood it now. I want you to know this. The last thing I'd like to say is this, next week I'll be inducted into the Hall of Fame. I'll get that big ring. In fact, it's a bigger ring than I would have got for the championship, but I'll tell you something about all the awards. They all pale to the glory of Christ and what He's done in my life. It's amazing what He has done in my life. I wouldn't trade my position in Christ for a thousand NBA championships or a thousand Hall of Fame rings or for a hundred billion dollars. There's nothing like the joy of Jesus Christ in your life."

I hadn't listened to it since he delivered it in 2020, but I pulled MacArthur's sermon up again today that people are pointing to as evidence of a tremendous and destructive problem in his theology. What I had forgotten was that this was a sermon reflecting on the clarity the Lord had provided through the many battles and trials the church was enduring in that timeāCOVID, government oppression, weekly fines, ongoing legal battles, the theological fallout of wokeness and the social justice movement, pastors failing left and right, and the election of Joe Biden and the prospect of persecution likely to come from his administration's hostility toward the truth. MacArthur's comments on how we should not expect to win according to an earthly understanding still make perfect sense now as they did then, and they were a reminder of how committed he was to remaining steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord for the glory of God regardless of the trials we face down here. He understood that our hope was in Christ, not in our earthly circumstances: "John 15, just read a couple of verses here. Our Lord talks to the disciples, chapter 15, verse 19. Verse 19 ā well, verse 18, letās start there. āIf the world hates you, you know that it has,ā what? We donāt win here, you get this? They killed Him, they killed the apostles, and in every generation they kill the people who proclaim the truth. āYou know that it hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world,ā ā verse 19 ā āthe world would love its own; but because youāre not of the world,ā ā so if you want the world to love you, youāve got to convince them that youāre not against them. But we are against them, not out of animosity, but out of love. āIf you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because youāre not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, because of this the world hates you.ā Chapter 16, verse 33, all the way at the end of that chapter our Lord says the end of the verse, āIn the world youāll have trouble. Take courage,ā ā what? ā āIāve overcome the world.ā We donāt win the battle here, you canāt, canāt fight. Jesus said, āMy kingdom is not of this world,ā John 18. āIf My kingdom were of this world, My servants wouldā ā what? ā āfight.ā Weāre not fighting this world, we get it. āBlessed are those who are persecuted.ā No, we donāt win here. In fact, it gets worse, doesnāt it? Evil men get worse and worse. I mean, read the prophetic declarations of our Lord in the sermon on His second coming. Read the book of Revelation. Itās not going to get better, itās going to get continually worse. And every generation of Christians is going to suffer for two reasons: because the world hates it, and because suffering perfects our faith and gives validity to our testimony. So weāre not going to win. You think we lost an election? No. No. We donāt win anything in this world. Weāre not trying to gain this. Is there anything in this world weāre trying to gain? āFor to me to live again isā ā what? ā āChrist.ā And then I look at evangelicalism and I see this clarity thatās coming in the culture. I love the fact thereās going to be the true church and the people who hate the truth. Thereās going to be the truth and lies. Thereās going to be church and anti-church. Thereās Christ and Antichrist. I love that clarity. These are the best of times. Incredibly wonderful to have that kind of clarity, where thereās no reason to be a compromiser, because the price is too high. Persecution always does that, right? Nobody goes to the gulag for something theyāre faking. And then I just look at it from an evangelical side and I watch the sifting of evangelical leadership, people who used to be preachers that people wanted to listen to, nobody cares what they say. Used to be bloggers people wanted to read, and nobody cares what they write. They wrote books that you read; they canāt get off the shelf. So much compromise, horrible compromise; much of it because of the social justice issue. That is a disaster maybe more than any single disaster, but collectively with everything else, has done irreparable damage. Said it would, and it has, and itās not nearly done. But the whole evangelical, seemingly elite, rolled over and bought into social justice, critical race theory, intersectionality, racial identity. And now weāre going to have the fruit of it. Iāll give you an illustration. Americaās always functioned with equal justice. Get that? Equal justice. I mean, the modifier is clear, right? Equal. Equal for everybody. Everybodyās equal under the law, thatās equal justice. No, itās gone. Now we have social justice. What social justice means is unequal justice. It means that itās justice to basically determine by whether youāre a part of the oppressed group or the oppressors. What youāre seeing in America when the new President says, āIn the future all the money from the government is going to go to homosexuals, LGBTQ, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera,ā that is social justice. Thatās not equal justice. When you hear the new Attorney General say, āIn the future all charities are going to have to give their money to disenfranchised, oppressed minorities like homosexuals,ā youāre realizing that you have just seen the death of equal justice. How could a Christian jump on that bandwagon? Somethingās pretty clear. God does not hold somebody else responsible for whatās wrong with you, He holds you responsible. Social justice blames someone else for your defects and sin. How could Christians get anywhere near that? I did a whole series on Ezekiel 18, trying to make that clear. So weāre stepping into an era of injustice. Weāre stepping into an era where thereās no need to cover sin. Thereās no real need to be a hypocrite. Everything is in the open. Stepping into an era where hatred of the truth is going to go to a level we havenāt seen it. Weāre stepping into an era where compromising leaders in the evangelical movement have basically nullified themselves, neutralized themselves, taking themselves off the battlefield out of the fight. Thatās sad, but I still love the clarity. Do we have a hard future? Sure. We donāt win here, we just die. I mean, do you understand that? The Christian life is about two crucifixions. The Christian life is about two crucifixions. Itās about the crucifixion of Christ and itās about the crucifixion of the believer. Do you understand that? You signed up, you signed up for death." And his closing comment: "The kingdom is here, the King is alive, and Heās ruling in His church." If that's loser theology, I'll take it.

Historian Tom Holland explaining the revolutionary impact Christianity made on gender and sexuality which is so often taken for granted now in the West: "Because of Christianity, I mean, I think every society has had an idea of binaries, that in sex there are two roles that people have to play to have sex, and for us, it's based on gender. It's based on the idea of there being men and women and that's again an inheritance ultimately from Genesis, God creating men and women separate. But for the Romans, that wasn't the case. For the Romans, the binary was between the male Roman citizen and everybody else, and the male Roman citizen could do what he liked to everybody else... So you know you're a Roman slave owner, you can do what you like to your slaves sexually, any it doesn't matter what the gender of the slave is. It doesn't matter what the age is. You can just treat them as you want, and of course Christianity radically, radically changes that. And you know, if you are a scullery maid in a Roman household (a bit like a Yazidi girl in an Isis household), there's nothing to stop you being raped every day. Nothing to stop you. No legal power, I mean, no sense of moral disapproval at all, and so you can imagine the radical effect of getting a letter from Paul being told, 'you are the like the church.' It's utterly transformative."

Rosaria Butterfield on why Charlie Kirk was assassinated and why as a Christian you should not take your marching orders from Phil Vischer: "Charlie Kirk died...because of two reasons: Number one, he said things people didn't like, and number two, he championed Christian conservatism and he highlighted the moral bankruptcy of leftist progressivism. If you tell me, like Phil Vischer of VeggieTales, that the problem is political polarization, the solution is coming to the middle...The problem is not political polarization, but that Christians are accommodating lies... The progressive left and true Christianity are not morally equivalent. We don't bring the light to the darkness by meeting in the middle. We defy lies, and we tell the truth."

Oxford professor John Lennox on testing the reality of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ: "Now, my final point is this. I'm a scientist of sorts, and people say to me, 'Come on. You can't believe this stuff.' Because in science and practical science you do experiments. You test your hypothesis. Christianity is not testable. Isn't it? Isn't it? You see, the difference between the two last things I read were the difference between seeing something, those grave cloths, and working out an intellectual conclusion that something utterly remarkable has happened. That's not quite the same thing as meeting the risen Jesus. And you see, ladies and gentlemen, if it is true that Jesus rose from the dead, then He's still alive, and it's possible to meet Him. Now, you can do an experiment, and it's thisāthis Jesus who claims to be risen tells us that if we're prepared to trust Him, repent of the mess we've made of our own lives, and the lives of other people, and we're prepared to receive Him as Lord and Controller of life as the risen Son of God, then He will give us forgiveness. Does the word forgiveness mean anything to you? He'll give us new life and a new power... Now, ladies and gentlemen, this is the test...When you see people with narcotic or alcohol dependence, and they've no food to put on the table in front of their children, and you meet them then a year later, and something has happened. You say, 'What's happened to you?' and they say something like, 'Well, I met Jesus,' or 'I became a Christian,' or they'll put it different ways. When you see that again and again, you add two and two to get four. I wouldn't sit here for a nanosecond if I didn't believe that not only is the resurrection of Jesus intellectually credible, but I believe it's existentially credible because the center part of my life and that of my wife and family is to walk with Him from day to day. Now, that may sound absolute jargon and mumbo-jumbo to you, but we're living in a universe where we discover that we are persons, and every analogy we know tells us that our origin cannot be sub-personal. It's supra-personal. And if we enjoy human friendship, what a magnificent thing it is if God makes a way where we can through faith in Christ become His sons and daughters and enjoy the biggest friendship and the most exciting friendship in the universe, and that is friendship with the risen Christ."

Victor Davis Hanson is back and in fine intellectual form. š "Don Lemon said, 'They just went after me because I'm so well known and famous, and I'm black, and I'm gay.' I don't think they went after you at all. I think you went after yourself, and you're not famous anymore, you're infamous. When you say to anybody 'Don Lemon,' they think of all the stupid things he's said, how he was fired."

During an interview in 1974, Corrie ten Boom shared how she once encouraged fellow believers in Africa with one of her father's memorable lessons on why Christians need not fear being strong enough to endure suffering: "I once said to my father (I was still a little girl), 'Daddy, I will never be strong enough to suffer for Jesus.' And Father said, 'When you go to travel with a train to Amsterdam, when do I give you the train ticket? Three weeks before?' I said, 'No, Daddy, the day that I go to travel.' And Father said, 'That's what God does. Today, you do not need to have strength to suffer for Jesus, but the moment you will have the honor to suffer for Him, He will give you all the strength.' And then I was confident. And I said to these people, 'When you have to suffer for Jesus, the Lord will give you the train ticket.'"

John MacArthur at a church in 1988 explaining one of the issues that prevented him from supporting a covenant theologian's view on the future of Israel: "God promised Israel all kinds of things. If you're a covenant theologian, you say, 'But that's not literal. That's all figurative, and that's all talking about spiritual blessings to the church.' The problem with that is, you've got all the literal curses, and now, you've arbitrarily made all the promises figurative. And you've taken all the curses and applied them to literal Israel, and all the blessings and applied them to figurative Israel, namely, the church. And I think that's really an impossible kind of hermeneutic, because you've arbitrarily determined that."

In a recent interview with Jim Daly, Ben Sasse answered several challenging questions about how to respond to suffering with both Christian faith and hope: "I don't want to be aggressive with the intellectualist rationalist side, but God tells us in Scripture everything we need to know for faith and life, but He doesn't tell us everything we want to know or everything that we ultimately will know. And He is God. And to whom else would we go? So, I trust Him because He is who He is, and He has been faithful. And so, I won't get every answer this side of eternity... Death is an enemy. Death is wicked. But it's the final enemy. It's our last battle. And after that, there will be no more tears. And so, we will have these answers, and we will know that God used it for His good." Please keep praying for him and his family. (Full link below)

![Rosaria Butterfield boldly sharing truth at the Answers for Women conference this weekend, apparently after eating a breakfast of Grape-Nuts sprinkled with gunpowder: "...It's a sin to tell a lie, but it's also a sin to believe a lie. And so, there is no such thing as a gay man or a lesbian woman or a transgender woman (and then you can fill in all of the different categories that come under the umbrella, LGBTQ). And the reason is because, in Genesis where we have to start, we are given our identity. Our identity is in the image of God, bearing it as a man or as a woman. There are two kinds of people in the worldāa man or a woman.

I'm not suggesting it's easy, but that is our job, and you know what? It's not just somebody whose indwelling sin is homosexuality who happens to have that call. It's everyone, because we are all born in the sin of Adam. And it is because of the sin of Adam that we have sin in our nature.

Such an important insight from Jeremy Boreing on a common technique being used to deceive and mislead masses of people: "And they're using the techniques that have been used by cults throughout history, which is, it is a weakness in the human being that when someone shows us that we've been lied to, we immediately trust them. If someone comes along and says, 'You've been lied to your entire life,' your immediate thought should be, 'Man, I'm gullible. I should be careful what I believe.' Instead it's, 'Now, you're who I trust. Tell me more.' So it's a very powerful tool, a very powerful form of persuasion to tell people that everything they believe is a lie. It's a lie! Because everything you believe is not a lie, but of course it's true that you've been lied to."

In an interview in 1974, Richard Wurmbrand, a Romanian pastor once imprisoned for 14 years, shared an important insight on the reason he experienced such intense persecution under Communist leaders: Pat Robertson: "That was your only crime, that you said, I want to bring men to eternal life, tell them they have an immortal soul, tell them about Jesus?" Wurmbrand: "Well, I would not say that this is the only thing. So much they would have allowed. Nothing would have happened to St. John the Baptist if he would have said only, 'Repent. The Kingdom of Heaven is near,' but when he said, 'You, Herod, are bad,' then he was beheaded. Jesus could have delivered hundreds of sermons on the mount and parables. Nothing would have happened to Him, but when He said, 'Woe unto you, hypocrite Pharisees,' then He was lost. And in preaching the Gospel, you have to do two things: to proclaim the Kingdom, but also to denounce sin. And we did this side, and the greatest sin committed in humanity today is Communism, not only that it has killed 60 million people in Red China and 30 million in Russia, but it poisons youth and children with atheism. It uses brainwashing. It puts Christians in psychiatric exams, not only in prisons where simply they break their will and their mind, and they try to subvert the whole world with Communism. So I preached both sides of the Gospel. I denounced the sin, and at the same time, I extended to them the invitation to come to the Kingdom."

Wow, wow, wow. Prominent atheist, Richard Dawkins, explaining how he came to believe that God didn't exist: "By far the most important, I suppose was understanding evolution. I think the evangelical Christians have really sort of got it right in a way in seeing evolution as the enemy. Whereas, the more, what shall we say, sophisticated theologians are quite happy to live with evolution. I think they're deluded. I think the evangelicals have got it right in that there really is a deep incompatibility between evolution and Christianity, and I think I realized that at the age of about 16."
