YouTube - John MacArthur Explains what Happens part 1
An effort to get a handle on the Bishop of evangelicals, allegedly, the Baptist John MacArthur. An old name, but I don't run in Baptistic or Charismatic circles at all. An FB friend has prompted an effort to take a look.
This is another Larry King appearance amongst a variety of clerics. Some notes, germane to MacArthur.
"What happens after we die?"
1. Heaven and hell. Believers in Christ vs. non-believers.
2. Resurrection of the dead is discussed. Basic Christian view.
3. A Romanist posits faith-based + works-based salvation in response to Mac.
4. The Rabbi speaks of "God grading on a curve" and living a "decent life."
5. It's gentlemanly.
6. Mac brings in 2 Cor. 5.1.10 and the assurances of heaven.
7. A Muslim scholar enters the interaction on the "Village Green" [PV's metaphor, not on the show]. No one is perfect and is guaranteed, based on works, life after death. Mac engages the Muslim with justification by faith alone by the imputed merits of Christ alone.
8. All panel particpants believe in the after-life.
