Shopping for a man’s suit? Walk right into a department store and there they are: men’s suits in every color, size, and design, all displayed together.

Would Jesus Take A Militant Stand For The Truth? In New Book, John MacArthur Says “Yes”

Best-Selling Author Dispels Depiction of a Meek and Mild Savior in The Jesus You Can’t Ignore

The Jesus You Can’t IgnoreNASHVILLE, Tenn., April 1, 2009—Fierce.  Blunt.  Confrontational.  These are hardly words that most people would use to describe Jesus.  But the meek and mild, politically correct version of Jesus often depicted by Christians and non-Christians alike is an inaccurate portrayal of who Jesus really was, says best-selling author and pastor John MacArthur in his new book, The Jesus You Can’t Ignore: What You Must Learn from the Bold Confrontations of Christ (Thomas Nelson, July 2009, ISBN: 978-1-4002-0206-5, $22.99).

In The Jesus You Can’t Ignore, MacArthur surveys the entire public ministry of Christ, reintroducing readers to His passionate mission to make the Gospel clear and bring people into the Kingdom of God—even when it caused offence to those promoting inaccurate doctrine.  Jesus fiercely and unapologetically defended truth against the insidious hypocrites of His day.
