John MacArthur's One Nature Position

Introduction

The purpose of these series of studies is to carefully document and explain John MacArthur’s teaching that the believer in Christ possesses only one nature, the new nature in Christ. This documentation was obtained from his published writings and from his public tapes.

We hold no animosity towards John MacArthur, but because of the far reaching influence which he has in and among our churches, it is necessary to examine his teachings and warn believers concerning those doctrines that are not in harmony with what the Bible says.

This material was originally prepared for and presented to the National Executive Committee of the IFCA along with materials of a similar nature submitted by other concerned IFCA brethren.  Another key issue of concern was John MacArthur's position on the Eternal Sonship of Christ.
