In the late 1800s, Charles Spurgeon warned that the church was drifting away from the purity of the gospel, candy-coating God's Word rather than boldly proclaiming the truths of Scripture. Over one hundred years later. John MacArthur, troubled by the seeker-sensitive movement and an emphasis on pragmatism within the church, is sounding the same alarm.
Issuing a warning against preaching and teaching a shallow gospel that neither offends nor convicts anyone, MacArthur calls us back to a firm and humble reliance on the power and sovereignty of God for salvation and to resist compromising our proclamation of God's Word.
