John F. MacArthur Jr., who taught Scripture to millions through taped sermons, radio broadcasts, Bible commentaries, and a best-selling study Bible, has died at the age of 86.
He was beloved and respected.
MacArthur also regularly sparked controversy, clashing with evangelicals who disagreed with him about the gifts of the Holy Spirit, biblical gender roles, and what is necessary to be saved.
He sometimes acknowledged these conflicts could have been handled with more humility. “I might have come in a little more like a lamb instead of a lion,” he said of one sermon. But MacArthur also believed the condemnation of Christians who are not real Christians was essential—and the second key mark of his ministry.
