It was a comparison, not an equation! And, actually I do like MacArthur and have 96 of his books and study guides. I was simply trying to come up with someone else who had that ability to sound authoritative regardless of what he is saying. Now that Big John is a leaky dispensationalist, I find him convincing. Unfortunately, the same was pretty much true when he was a traditional dispensationalist too.
The man just has that ability to sound authoritative.
Actually, that was my ONLY point of comparison. Like him or not, MacArthur is as real as they come. What you see is what you get. The man appears (and friends who know him confirm) to be the same guy in and out of the pulpit with a very high commitment to integrity and faithfulness to his wife.
