“The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the single greatest event in the history of the world. It is so foundational to Christianity that no one who denies it can be a true Christian...A person who believes in a Christ who was not raised believes in a powerless Christ, a dead Christ. If Christ did not rise from the dead, then no redemption was accomplished at the cross and “your faith is worthless,” Paul goes on to say; “you are still in your sins”.”
"Being a pastor means you're a truth teller. That means you're truth teller when it comes to the Bible. That means you protect your people from deception that comes from the world. That's part of being a shepherd."
- John MacArthur

"When a pastor steals or over-borrows someone else's work, that pastor is not only playing a role like an actor but isn't a true messenger from the Lord."
- John MacArthur
Faith
"The relentless study of the Word of God is how God sanctifies and protects the pastor. When you're just opening your iPad and reading somebody else's sermon, you've never been exposed to the sanctifying work of the Word."
- John MacArthur
Faith
"If Christ was not raised, His death was in vain, your faith in Him would be pointless and your sins would still be counted against you with no hope of spiritual life."
- John MacArthur
Faith
"Once I was free in the shackles of sin:Free to be tempted, just bound to give in;Free to be captive to any desire;Free to eternally burn in hell’s fire.‘Til Someone bought me and called me His slave:Bound by commands I am free to obey;Captive by beauty I’m free to adore—Sentenced to sit at His feet evermore."
- John MacArthur
Faith
"In a sense, your small and simple sacrifices are the dots of daily living that make up the masterpiece painting of your life. You may not see how the dots connect now, and you don’t need to yet. Simply have faith enough for the moment you are living in now. Trust in God, and ‘out of small things [will come] that which is great’ [Doctrine and Covenants 64:33]."

"For we walk by faith, not by sight."
Faith
"Jesus looked at them and said, ‘With man it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.’"

"Jesus answered, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’"
