1 Biography

The son of Jack MacArthur and fifth cousin of U.S. Gen-eral Douglas MacArthur,[8] John MacArthur attendedBob Jones University before transferring to Los AngelesPacific College (now Azusa Pacific University). He laterobtained his Masters of Divinity from Biola University'sTalbot Theological Seminary, in La Mirada, California.He graduated with honors. From 1964 to 1966, he servedas an associate pastor at Calvary Bible Church, in Bur-bank, California and, from 1966 to 1969, as a facultyrepresentative for Talbot Theological Seminary. Then, in1969, he became the third pastor in the then-short historyof the nondenominational Grace Community Church ofSun Valley, California.[9]

His daily radio program, Grace to You, which is nowbroadcast throughout much of the world, began as an au-dio recording ministry to provide audio cassettes of hissermons to listeners. They were first broadcast in Balti-more, Maryland, in 1977.[10]

In 1985, MacArthur became the president of The Mas-ter’s College (formerly Los Angeles Baptist College), anaccredited, four-year, liberal arts Christian college;[11]

and, in 1986, he founded The Master’s Seminary.MacArthur also received an honorary doctorate fromTalbot Theological Seminary[12] and an honorary doctor-ate from Grace Graduate School.[13]

2 Theological views

2.1 Creationism

MacArthur advocates young-earth creationism in hisbook, The Battle For the Beginning (2001), and in hissermons.[16] Speaking about evolutionism, he writes thatChristians “ought to expose such lies for what they areand oppose them vigorously.” He argues that 'the battlefor the beginning is ultimately a battle between two mu-tually exclusive faiths - faith in Scripture versus faith inanti-theistic hypotheses. It is not really a battle betweenscience and the Bible.'[17]

2.2 Dispensationalism

MacArthur describes himself as a “leakydispensationalist.”[18] While he holds to a premillennialand pre-tribulational rapture of the church and fulfill-ment of all the covenant promises made to the Jewsat the end of the tribulation, he rejects some of theclassic dispensational ideas, such as the Law having noapplication to the church.

2.3 Soteriology

MacArthur was a key person in the Lordship salvationcontroversy in the 1980s, arguing against Free Grace the-ology. He states, “you must receive Jesus Christ for whoHe is, both Lord and Savior, to be truly saved (II Pe-ter 2:20).”[19] Regarding eternal security, he states, “Itshould never be presented merely as a matter of beingonce saved, always saved--with no regard for what you

2 2 THEOLOGICAL VIEWS

believe or do. The writer of Hebrews 12:14 states franklythat only those who continue living holy lives will en-ter the Lord’s presence.” MacArthur’s views raised con-troversy within American Evangelicalism and were chal-lenged in print by non-lordship dispensationalist theolo-gians, Charles Ryrie and Zane C. Hodges, who arguedthat MacArthur was teaching a form of works-based sal-vation. MacArthur has denied their conclusion due to thedisagreement over the nature of Christ’s Lordship in re-lationship to Salvation.In December 1989, the Bible Broadcasting Network ter-minated MacArthur’s “Grace to You” program. In ex-plaining that step, BBN president Lowell Davey referredto MacArthur’s teachings on the blood of Christ, and“Lordship Salvation.” Davey called these teachings “con-fusing.” In a letter dated January 15, 1990, Davey citeda, "....drift by Dr. MacArthur to a theological positionthat we could not adhere to,” and said that MacArthur’ssermon series on the theology of election "....convincedus that the direction of 'Grace to You' was toward Hyper-Calvinism....” MacArthur preaches “Salvation” by elec-tion of God’s sovereignty.[20] However, the term “Hyper-Calvinism” is used by some to denote 5-point Calvin-ism or even any strong defense of Calvinism, rather thanthe historical “Hyper-Calvinism” position that only the"Elect" may be offered the Gospel (compare with the his-torical teaching of all Protestant denominations, includ-ing MacArthur, of the free offer of the gospel). Thisposition does not seem to accurately reflect MacArthur’sposition in his sermons. The controversy concerning theefficacy of the Christ’s blood stems from MacArthur’sstatement that it is not the literal liquid blood of Christthat saves, but his sacrificial death on The Cross, a viewthat he espoused in an article titled, “Not His Bleed-ing, but His Dying,” published in the May 1976 issueof the Grace to You family paper that is distributed tohis church. MacArthur himself, though, later clarifiedwhat was stated of him in the article, noting his posi-tion concerning Christ’s blood and death in atonement,mentioning that the efficacy of Christ’s blood is not someparticular physical property of the blood itself, but thefact that He shed blood in dying, and his affirmation thatChrist’s blood in death was necessary to satisfy God’s holyrequirement for atonement.[21]

2.4 Christology

In 1983, MacArthur first published his belief in the doc-trine of "incarnational sonship.” In 1989, after some crit-icism, he defended his views in a plenary session ofthe annual convention of the Independent FundamentalChurches of America. In an article on MacArthur’s website Grace to You entitled “Reexamining the Eternal Son-ship of Christ,” he retraces his views from 1983 onward,concluding, “I want to state publicly that I have aban-doned the doctrine of 'incarnational sonship.' Carefulstudy and reflection have brought me to understand that

Scripture does indeed present the relationship betweenGod the Father and Christ the Son as an eternal Father-Son relationship. I no longer regard Christ’s sonship as arole He assumed in His incarnation.”[22]

2.5 Cessationism

MacArthur is a cessationist, and is one of themost promi-nent voices in the church against the continuationist be-liefs of Pentecostalism and the Charismatic Movement.He has written three books in support of his position:The Charismatics (1978), Charismatic Chaos (1993), andStrange Fire: The Danger of Offending the Holy Spiritwith Counterfeit Worship (2013). In October 2013,MacArthur hosted a conference called “Strange Fire” athis church, to mark the launch of his book of the samename. The event featured a number of speakers who ar-gued for a cessationist theology and strongly critiquedthe Charismatic Movement.[23] In his opening remarks,MacArthur stated, Watching the behavior of some Hin-dus who belong to the Kundalini cult. Their body move-ments are almost identical to that of people in the charis-matic movement, the extreme behavior of pagans. This isthe work of Satan, it is the work of darkness, and not to beattributed to the Holy Spirit.” And that, “The Charismaticmovement as such has made no contribution to biblicalclarity, interpretation, or sound doctrine..It detracts andconfuses.” “It has only produced distortion, confusion,and error.” “Have people truly been saved in Charismaticchurches? Yes. But nothing coming from that movementhas been the reason they were saved.” “Evangelicalismhas thrown its arms open and has welcomed the Trojanhorse of the charismatic movement into the city of God.Its troops have taken over and placed an idol in the cityof God.”[24]

He broadly calls modern “visions, revelations, voicesfrom heaven...dreams, speaking in tongues, prophecies,out-of-body experiences, trip to heaven, anointings, mir-acles – all false, all lies, all deceptions – attributed falselyto the Holy Spirit.” And that “The Charismatic movementhas stolen the Holy Spirit and created a golden calf, andthey’re dancing around the golden calf as if it were theHoly Spirit.”[25][26] He has made a list of Gifts of theSpirit, mostly from 1 Cor. 12-14, but holds that “oncethe New Testament was finished, those sign gifts ceasedto have a function”, and ended with the conclusion of theApostolic Age, around 100 AD.[27]

In a subsequent teaching, “What has happened after the'Strange Fire' Conference” (2013), MacArthur allowedthat within the Charismatic movement there were thosewho believed in the authority of Scripture, honored theLord, and pursued Godly living, and that the movementretained enough gospel truth so that souls could be savedwithin it. However, he saw its interdenominational pres-ence as being “a testimony to the absence of any the-ology.” He further criticized the modern Charismaticmovement, stating that in 1967 “a bunch of Jesus freak

people.. go to Calvary Chapel...and for the first time...thatI know of in history, the church lets the very defined sub-culture dictate what it will be,” citing “the hippie cul-ture, communal living...kids coming out of drugs and freesex, and all that” as displacing “all the normal and for-mal things,” and typifying the charismatic church, withthe movement becoming Calvary Chapel.[28] In the past(1991) however, MacArthur commended Chuck Smith(1927 – 2013), founder of the Calvary Chapel move-ment, for writing “a straight forward critique of charis-matic extremism,” and stated that “there are many likehim who have taken their stand and I thank God for theircourage and their desire to be Biblical.”[29] In response toMacArthur’s “Strange Fire” conference, Calvary Chapelexpresses a fundamental disagreement with MacArthur’sunderstanding of spiritual gifts among God’s people to-day, but affirms “charisma, not charismania,” and com-mends Chuck Smith’s book “Charisma versus Charisma-nia” as being one of the best short, popular works on thesubject.[30]

Three books have been written in response to the StrangeFire book and conference, arguing for the continuationistposition: Authentic Fire: A Response to John MacArthur’sStrange Fire by Michael Brown; Holy Fire: A Balanced,Biblical Look at the Holy Spirit’s Work in Our Lives byR.T. Kendall and The Essential Guide to the Power ofthe Holy Spirit: God’s Miraculous Gifts At Work Todayby Dr. Randy Clark. Addressing the “Strange Fire”conference, continuationist Calvinist Baptist John Piperconcurs that there are many abuses in the charismaticchurch, however he adds that “we really need to keep inmind that every charismatic abuse has its mirror image innon-charismatic abuses...In some of these cases, the non-charismatic church is more guilty than the charismatic,”such as, “the absence of emotion, which is probably moredeadly than the excesses.”[31]

2.6 Complementarianism

MacArthur takes a complementarian biblical view ongender roles as opposed to the worldly feminist view andconsiders that the Bible does not allow women to teachmen or exercise authority in churches. He therefore be-lieves that the roles of elder and pastor are restricted tomen only.[32][33][34]

2.7 Psychology

He is also an advocate of Nouthetic Counseling, whichstresses the Bible as a sufficient tool for counseling peo-ple with mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety.MacArthur does not reject all forms of psychological the-ories and techniques, though he considers some psychol-ogy and psychiatry as contrary to the Bible.[35]

MacArthur has argued that “True psychology (i.e. “thestudy of the soul”) can be done only by Christians, since

only Christians have the resources for understanding andtransforming the soul. The secular discipline of psychol-ogy is based on godless assumptions and evolutionaryfoundations and is capable of dealing with people onlysuperficially and only on the temporal level... Psychol-ogy is no more a science than the atheistic evolutionarytheory upon which it is based. Like theistic evolution,Christian psychology is an attempt to harmonize two in-herently contradictory systems of thought. Modern psy-chology and the Bible cannot be blended without seriouscompromise to or utter abandonment of the principle ofScripture’s sufficiency.... "[36]

His stance has caused several controversies, the most no-table of which was the first time an employee of an evan-gelical church had ever been sued for malpractice. Thecase failed to come to trial because a judge ruled the caseas having insufficient evidence.[37][38][39][40]

2.8 Other Christian movements and otherreligions

His writings disapprove of other modern Christian move-ments and ministers such as those who run unbibli-cal “seeker-friendly” church services such as RobertSchuller, Bill Hybels, and Rick Warren.[41]

He has criticized popular Word of Faith pastor Joel Os-teen, whom he has spoken of as a quasi-pantheist.[42] Hedisagrees with Billy Graham, who in an interview withRobert Schuller in the hour of prayer program stated thatSalvation is open to all people whether they believe in Je-sus or not. [43]

In May 2002, in the midst of significant media and publicattention focused onCatholic sex abuse cases, MacArthurgave a message highly critical of the entire system ofthe Roman Catholic priesthood.[44] MacArthur has re-ferred to Catholicism in as the “Kingdom of Satan,”[45]and holds to the confession that the pope is anti-christ,[46]but which he said “applies to anyone who positions him-self against or in place of Christ.”[47]

MacArthur unequivocally states that a person who trulybelieves what Roman Catholicism teaches is not saved be-cause the RomanCatholic way of salvation is works basedand is a “twisted system of satanic lies” presided over bythe Pope.[48] In addition he stated that the “theology ofIslam is false.”[49]
