Synopsis

What is authentic faith?The Gospel According to Jesus challenges Christians to re-evaluate their commitment to Christ by examining their fruits. MacArthur asks, "What does it really mean to be saved?" He urges readers to understand that their conversion was more than a mere point in time, that, by definition, it includes a lifetime of obedience.John MacArthur tackles the error of "easy-believism" by addressing these questions:Is it possible to accept Jesus as Savior while refusing him as Lord?Can someone truly believe without actually repenting?How do obedience, commitment to Christ, and turning from sin fit together with the truth that we are saved by grace through faith alone?The Gospel According to Jesus is just as powerful today as it was more than two decades ago. It is a Scripture-based clarion call for a rejection of the watered-down message that has gained popularity in the church and a return to the gospel Jesus preached. This 20th anniversary edition adds a powerful new chapter to the complete text of the original classic, reinforcing the book's timeless message—that Jesus demands to be both Savior and Lord to all who believe. This book is compulsory reading for Christians from all walks of life and will help guide you into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ.

Goodreads review by Louis on May 19, 2016

I am half way through MacArthur's book. This is the second time I am reading it. I am reading it again because a lot of people, mostly charismatics, have accused MacArthur of false doctrine based on this book. MacArthur goes through all of Jesus' teaching on salvation and how one makes a commitment......more

I’m not a MacArthurite by any stretch of the imagination, but I’m glad I read this. I’m thankful for the influence MacArthur had on my theology back in the day and this book offered some great food for thought, and some helpful reminders of Jesus’ more confrontational words throughout the gospels.

Goodreads review by Orlando on February 05, 2012

Lordship salvation is biblical, as MacArthur illuminates; so this book should have been titled something akin to that topic. For a complete view of the "gospel" please read Scot McKnight's The King Jesus Gospel where he writes that salvation is but one part of the full "gospel" story. For a beautifu......more

Goodreads review by Blue on March 31, 2024

MacArthur's most famous work that easily incapsulates the heart of his ministry in preaching and writing the past 50+ years: defending the true Gospel of Christ. Great Quote that summarizes the book whilst describing Lordship Salvation (genuine salvation): "Real salvation cannot and will not fail to......more
