John MacArthur and Mark Driscoll: Opposing Views on the Gifts of the Holy Spirit

November 15, 2013 By ray

In case you missed what is happening in recent weeks between John MacArthur and Mark Driscoll, here is a quick summary.

John MacArthur just came out with this book:
http://www.amazon.com/Strange-Fire-Offending-Counterfeit-Worship/dp/1400205174/ref=pd_sim_b_1

Mark Driscoll came out with a book which has a chapter in it where he takes the complete opposite position as MacArthur:
http://www.amazon.com/Call-Resurgence-Christianity-Funeral-Future/dp/1414383622/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1384506461&sr=1-1&keywords=driscoll+resurgence

Here is a review of Driscoll’s book by Tim Challies:

John MacArthur recently hosted a conference about his book:

Mark Driscoll went to MacArthur’s conference to “give away” his book:

Driscoll went online and publicly invited John MacArthur to come attend his conference so that the two could publicly debate:

Tim Challies interviews John MacArthur after this public spectacle:

John Piper gives his reaction to John MacArthur:

John Piper speaks about prophecy today:

A Pentecostal perspective:

I am a continuationist, but I will save my full explanation for a later time.
