MASS DEFECTION: The Great Physician Confronts the Pathology of Counterfeit Faith (John 6) ~John MacArthur ⊰✿ (Sermon is 60 minutes) Following the final days of Judas Iscariot, John MacArthur preaches primarily from the Gospel of John on the pathology of false disciples, those who “believe” for a while and then fall away for one reason or another. This undeniable reality — that there are unconverted disciples like Judas in our churches even today — should prompt pastors to “evangelize the church.” What does this look like? Being unceasingly being clear about the “words of the gospel,” demonstrating from the Scripture what the life of a genuine disciple of Christ should look like, and ultimately resting in the sovereign purposes of God who loves incorruptibly. Hell will be far worse for the reached people than it will ever be for the unreached. * * * * * Therefore let him that thinks he stands take heed lest he fall. (! Corinthians 10:12) Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobate [false].(2 Corinthians 13:5)
