Men don’t give in to fear.
Men don’t give in to pressure.
Men don’t give in to intimidation.
And they don’t give in to temptation.
They don’t seek the easy way.
They will take the pain; they will invite the risk; they will confront the challenge, and they will not bow to the pressure to compromise the commandments of God.
The strength of a man is that he lives on principle; that he lives on conviction.
– John MacArthur
I enjoy John MacArthur.
I remember 2020, when a whole bunch of church people cowered in fear, Mr. Mac was one of the first voices I’d heard speak out against the lockdown.
That gave me even more respect for the man.
He has every right to preach this phrase, which I think is from one of his sermons.
He lives it.
