You ask: "Is it true that MacArthur’s interpretation adheres to what has come to be called the “Reformed Doctrine of the Perseverance of the Saints”? Dr. John MacArthur generally avoids labeling what he believes in regard to the Bible doctrine of Election. Instead, he normally limits himself to stating what he believes about Election and leaves the labels to others. Eagle One, thank you for posting the article "Who are the Overcomers?" by Wallace. I found it extremely interesting. It presented a point of view on the subject that I had never considered and never before heard explained that well. It has given me plenty of food for thought. I would like to read more. Could you tell us either the exact link to that particular article? If not, could you provide the link to the website from which it came and tell us what link on the homepage you have to click to find the article. It is refreshing (only a few Forumites do this consistently) to see a teaching so thoroughly defined and defended with relevant Scriptures presented, as well. Grace to you, kalos |

Greetings to you Kalos, The web page is www.bible.org/index.htm Under the heading, "Bible Studies Area" click on "Search Studies Area". In the search studies area, insert the word overcomers. That will take you to a series of studies on Revelation. I found the information I needed in Number (1) I shortened it considerably but I still needed to break it up into four installments, as you noticed. I would welcome your views about this study. I appreciated the tone of your post. I would like to make a clarifying comment re. the closing sentance in my post. I've never been guilty of having a thin skin when it comes to dealing with people in the world. But when a brother forces me to absorb harshness, I get a little disappointed. When I decided to share this article I did so knowing that not all readers would agree. However, I believe that Christian brothers should strive to treat each other with civility. I submit that there are limitless degrees of biblical understanding and experience among us. Some of the posts I've read reflect strong scholarship. However, not all of us have a strong working knowledge of Greek and Hebrew. I certainly don't. I rely on the scholarship of others while primarily depending on the Holy Spirit to keep me alert regarding truth. Reading the scriptures and depending on the Lord to give me right understanding is a joy for me. I write all of the above in an effort to make myself transparent to the members of this fellowship. I look forward to hearing from you Brother Kalos. In Him, Eagle One |
