Grace To You

John MacArthur

January 23, 2026

The Bible teaches that God's unyielding summons, or effectual calling, is the sole efficient cause of salvation, and that human beings are born spiritually dead and incapable of cooperating with regenerating grace. This doctrine eliminates fear, doubt, and questioning, and brings a locked-down understanding of eternal salvation, affirming the true character of faith in trials. [... more]

The Doctrine of Absolute Inability B

The Bible teaches that humanity is born totally depraved, with a heart that is evil and unable to seek God on its own.

AI and God's Creation Mandate

As humans, we must wrestle with the implications of artificial intelligence, considering both its benefits and dangers. AI has disrupted learning by normalizing cheating, but it also requires us to re-examine what it means to be human and the meaning of life. Our work is vital as humans, not just as a way to love and serve our neighbors, but also as a fulfillment of the creation mandate. We must cultivate biblical discernment to navigate the complexities of AI and its effects on our culture. [... more]

The Performance of Faith (Pt. 1)

The story of Noah is an illustration of rock solid faith, demonstrating how he found grace in a wicked generation and became a righteous man, despite the depravity and sin around him. His faith was expressed in obedience to God's command to build an ark, saving his household and condemning the world. The Bible teaches that we are all sinful and capable of great evil, but it is through God's undeserved favor, or grace, that we can find salvation and become heirs of righteousness. [... more]

Two Differing Mindsets

Men and women are often unaware of their total depravity and inability to fix their sinful nature, but the Bible teaches that those who live according to the Spirit have a new mindset, a different way of thinking, and a new destiny. This contrast is crucial, and there is no middle ground between living according to the flesh and living according to the Spirit. Those who live according to the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires, and they enjoy the privileges that accompany that, including the opportunity to enjoy a vigorous faith, live in the light of a bright hope, and find increasingly in their hearts a fervent love for Christ, for His word, for His people, for His world.

Noah | Hebrews 11:7 | Broken People and Famous Faith

The story of Noah's Ark is often misunderstood as a cute children's tale, but it's actually about a holy God responding to the seriousness of sin and one man's faith to trust God when no one else did. Pastor JD explores how Noah's example in Hebrews 11 challenges us to act on God's word out of reverence for him, and how we can live in a way today that we'll be glad we did tomorrow. [... more]

Bridging Niagara

The Bible describes human nature as sinful and in need of redemption. Paul's letter to the Romans reveals the depth of humanity's depravity and the impossibility of achieving righteousness through human effort. The law, given by God, serves as a mirror to reveal our sinfulness, but it cannot wash away our guilt. The only way to bridge the chasm between God and humanity is through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, who offers salvation and redemption to all who believe. [... more]

The Venom within Us All

The Apostle Paul reveals the destructive power of words, exposing the hidden depravity and corruption within the human heart. He describes the tongue as a source of great deception, capable of luring others into believing something that is not true. The lips speak untold damage, and the mouth is a key window into the physical condition of the body, revealing the decay and wickedness within. The Bible teaches that one of the greatest distinctives of the believer is how they flex the muscle of their tongue, and that the tongue is powerful and hard to control. [... more]

The Guilt of Mankind vs. The Glory of God

The Apostle Paul declares that all of humanity is guilty of universal depravity, enslaved to sin, and under the authority of sin. This is evident in the evil condition, communication, and chaos of mankind, and is a verdict that Paul delivers in Romans 3. Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners, not victims or those with addictions, and offers deliverance from sin through His gospel. [... more]
