John MacArthur Responds to Steve Lawson

Dealing with Sin in the Pulpit?

[mmttomb]

"But while my heart is crushed for the sinner, it is greatful for the Savior who's purifying His church."
So aptly put.

[Sheep_]

Things like this should show all believers that we are engaged in spiritual WARFARE. Not patty cake, not a boxing match but War. Hopefully it wakes us up and keeps us off our heels. God bless you brother Corey.

The Bible says in the book of Proverbs that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. God sees all

[SimonPhoenixInHD]

It’s unfortunate about Steve Lawson, prayers for him and his family. What John Mac said about God purging His church is spot on!

[JustTeachMinistries]

“I don’t love him any less than I have for the past 25 years”…correction doesn’t mean you don’t love them.

[coltonstevens]

Please pray that I continue to surrender to God and repent, just as Steve Lawson needs to, as we all do. I got rid of my smartphone to better flee from lust, as my passion was a consuming fire. I do struggle with lust much less often, but Satan and my own sinful nature chases me like a roaring lion. I have cornered lust to the edge of my heart, pray that I abide in God alone and not my own strength in order to kick it out the spiritual door. It wasn't until I started reading the Word about daily did I truly understand the power God holds to help me in my life to flee from sin (1 Corinthians 10:13).

I’m not a Calvinist, but I don’t get why people attack the teaching of Calvinism when this man fell in sin. It’s not a time for attacking, but praying and keeping ourselves humbled

[joels]

what a wonderful pastor... my favorite by far...

I believe John McArthur answered biblically sound. TY for the update.

[SalvationSoulBeautiful]

Great video Brother Corey thanks for sharing God bless you and your family ❤

[augiedoggie]

This was very good thank you for this my heart has been devastated since all this happened. I so much admired Steve Lawson and his preaching and teaching I'll continue to pray for him

[colleendavis]

John MacArthur has been recovering from surgeries that's why he hasn't said anything until now.

[summer.loves.JesusChrist]

I got saved while listening to a John MacArthur sermon. It wasn’t him, he was just speaking good doctrine, and preaching verse by verse; refusing to compromise the truth from Scripture.
I believe we need to pray for pastor Steve. These content creators with videos that are just waiting for more “nuggets” to possibly damage his reputation even more, are inappropriate (in my humble opinion) but at the same time, maybe it will help him come to true repentance.

[revivalcycle]

Very good reconciling this to scripture brother. Thank you.

[TruthfromBibleMinistry]

I can't stand how they call it moral failures instead of sin.

[funtimeswithraynanci]

I respect everything that Pastor MacArthur has said. I am also thankful that he mentioned that he is praying to Pastor Lawson as well. However, what I would like to know is are they working with him and ministering to Steve Lawson for healing ❤️‍🩹 and restoration. Are they extending Grace, Mercy, Love and Restoration in an effort to lend him to full repentance for himself and his family. GOD does still forgive and restore Christian Who Fall. 1 John 1:9-10

[mybugguypestsolutionshoels]

You should do a video on churches that restore worship leaders, after they’ve fallen into adultery, and remarried another woman, and have been restored to the worship team, on a lead worship level. This is becoming more common. I really like your content, and what you’re exposing. Praise God for his mercy and grace.

[vitinlacend]

John McArthur Great pastor its not his fault someone he mentored has fallen never heard of Steve Lawson but lets pray for him we all can fall if we don’t stay in Gods words and have Godly people to hold us accountable God bless

[Natomon]

We've refused to sift our Church. God is going to do it for us! Better sooner than late because now it's going to hurt!
