The Marvelous Birth of the King
Family trees can be fascinating, but—for the most part—they have little impact on your social status. Not so when Jesus was born. His genealogy determined where He lived, where He paid taxes, and the synagogue He belonged to. What’s more, Jesus’ ancestry shows that when He was born in Bethlehem, it was a royal birth. John MacArthur looks at that fascinating story today on GRACE TO YOU as he continues his study titled . . . The Best of Christmas.
The Amazing Child of Christmas
In 1761, Wolfgang Mozart completed his first composition . . . at age five. In 1895, the artist Pablo Picasso painted “A Portrait of Aunt Pepa” . . . which was described as one of the greatest portraits in Spanish history. He was 14. However,no child can come close to the astonishing son John MacArthur looks at today on GRACE TO YOU. This child’s birth was proclaimed by angels and brought the hope of salvation to sinners. You’re about to see how amazing this child was in John’s series . . . The Best of Christmas.
The Believer and Indwelling Sin, Part 2(#2)
A good thought to keep in mind as you battle against sin. Sometimes you will defeat it . . . other times, sin will batter and bruise you. But the question is . . . do you have the drive to keep fighting your sinful flesh? If you don’t, what does that say about your spiritual condition? Questions to keep in mind today on GRACE TO YOU as John MacArthur continues his current titled . . . Freedom from Sin
The Believer and Indwelling Sin, Part 2(#1)
Only as a Christian do you have the capacity to feel the weight of sin . . . because you’re spiritually alive—you’re sensitive to sin . . . a sensitivity you should be cultivating daily. The apostle Paul certainly did . . . and from Paul, you’ll better understand the horrible nature of sin . . . and how to experience freedom from it. So keep listening . . . as John MacArthur continues his study on GRACE TO YOU titled . . . Freedom from Sin.
The Believer and Indwelling Sin, Part 1(#2)
Every day you face decisions with eternal consequences. Of course, I’m not referring to decisions like . . . what you should wear to the office or eat for breakfast. I’m talking about the choice you face to either go to battle against any desire, attitude, or action, that contradicts God’s law . . . or to allow sin to control you. Where do you stand in that war? How can you fight it more effectively? Consider that today on GRACE TO YOU as John MacArthur continues his study on how through Christ you can know . . . Freedom from Sin.
The Believer and Indwelling Sin, Part 1(#1)
The challenge of the Christian life is to consistently think and act biblically. Yet no matter how many right moves you make, you don’t make every right move—you still sin. Why is that? Why can something you truly hate still have so much power over you? Consider that today on GRACE TO YOU,as John MacArthur continues his look at the book of Romans in a series titled . . .Freedom from Sin.
Sin and the Law
Question for you: What’s the purpose of the Old Testament law? If it can’t save you and can’t make you holy, what good is it? That’s actually a very important question. John MacArthur helps answer it today on GRACE TO YOU as he continues his compelling study called . . . Freedom from Sin.
Dead to the Law
When we think about dying, I suppose it’s human nature to have a couple of selfish thoughts: One, that we won’t die for some time yet . . . and two, that when we do die, it will be peaceful—easy, if you will . . . happening in our sleep, perhaps.Actually, though, you can be thankful if you experience one particular, violent death. John MacArthur explains today . . . as we continue our Freedom from Sin study with a message titled Dead to the Law.
