| MacArthur actuallys says that "true" Calvinists must be dispy premils???
Wow. Just wow. I thought I had seen just about everything from the dispys, but this really takes the prize. | Yes, it does. MacArthur should be ashamed of himself. He has always been willing to abandon a particular doctrine and has even come under attack from his own denomination, which is the General Association of Regular Baptists (GARBC). I wish he would abandon his dispensationalism altogether or go back to being a consistent Arminian. | Thats a little harsh. MacArthur stood in the front lines and defended the Lordship of Christ against the assault of modern evangelicism. Remember during the 70's and 80's he wasn't a big name in the calvinist camps. he was dragged willingly for standing up for his beliefs. And I respect him for that. He is not a reformed in the sense of subscribing to creeds but he stands in a long line of godly men who have helped the church. Without a doubt MacArthur deserves some credit (by god's grace of course) for helping also restore the intregity of the pulpit in the area of expository preaching.
