John MacArthur | Orthodox & Catholics Teach False Gospel #gospel #shorts #short #bible

To those who ask “Don’t you want to see unity?” I ask in return, “Are you willing to allow souls to be led into darkness by false religion and error?”

“Evangelicals and Catholics Together” practically demands that evangelicals regard all active Catholics as true Christians and refrain from “proselytizing” them. To accede to that request is to capitulate to reckless faith.

I have heard testimonies from literally hundreds of former Roman Catholics who affirm unequivocally that while they were in the Catholic Church they did not know Christ at all. They were blindly following the religious system, attempting to earn grace and work their way into divine favor. They actively partook in the sacraments and ceremonies and rituals, but they had unregenerate hearts. Hardly a Sunday evening passes without at least one or two former Roman Catholics giving a testimony to that effect from our church baptistery. None of these people passed from death to life until they abandoned their blind faith in the Roman Catholic system and embraced the message of God’s free grace.

"Every Christian was wrong for 1500 years until Luther and Calvin came around." -John MacArthur

[OrthodoxPepe]

So basically noone was saved before the 1500? 💀💀

“Faith that works through love” - Just like the Bible teaches…

[albertmax]

Works is the evidence of faith, if you say you believe something but don’t act on it, you don’t really believe it.

I love how everyone here in the comments is destroying this dude

[cfoley]

BECAUSE you are redeemed by faith in Jesus, you go to work for Him.

[mikkis]

How very sad. Denying the historical, 2000 year old Christian faith.

[RensSpace]

So you’re basically saying the oldest church’s in the world were wrong about the gospel all this while for nearly 2000 years and Christ failed to preserve his church and we had to wait for you to come and teach the world the right gospel ? Give me a break

[donzioldbuddy]

That’s what all Christians believed until about 1540 …we are saved through faith and works

[LuisReyes-pbdt]

Who is this Protestant to be saying the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches are teaching False Christianity? He has a lot of nerve and he is wrong

[Bill-pxni]

Orthodox church founded by Jesus Chris not by man like yours

[SPQR]

John is very wrong on this. Probably worried about all the converts leaving protestantism.

James 2:24 "You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone"

[albabialdayaqi]

I'm a convert to Orthodoxy from Reformed Presbyterian. I read the church fathers and I actually read the book of James.

As Bugs Bunny would say " He don't know his scriptures do he."

Literally James 2:14-26.
14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food,  16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled, ” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without [a]your works,  and I will show you my faith by [b]my works. 19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is [c]dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 22 Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made [d]perfect? 23 And the Scripture was fulfilled which says,  “Abraham believed God, and it was [e]accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called the friend of God. 24 You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.

25 Likewise,  was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?

26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also

💀💀💀

Bold statements coming from a Zionist, Dispensationalist, NESTORIAN, Calvinist and Evangelical "Christian"

[Audleyweir]

Ah yes, St James the Apostle who wrote that we can’t be saved by faith alone has to be wrong… because your 50 year old church says so.
We Orthodox and Catholics have the true dogma and you can’t deny it.

[MagnumLapua]

Poor guy turned away from Christ and followed a flawed single person.

[stevefmelb]

This man is the most intolerant pretense I have ever heard. "It is to be cursed"?? People actually listen to your ramblings??
