Jas 2:1 My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism.
Jas 2:9 But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
Tit 1:9 holding fast the faithful word which is in accordance with the teaching, that he may be able both to exhort in sound doctrine and to refute those who contradict.

Friend of John MacArthur and speaker at last week's Shepherd's Conference, Ligon Duncan couldn't address concerns about Revoice and its push for accepting homosexuals as Christians. Instead he suggested a book by New Calvinist and TGCer Kevin DeYoung and a book by gay Anglican priest, Sam Allberry. That's right. No Scripture, no biblical, sound wisdom; just two men's books, one of whom is a false Christian and fake teacher. Duncan was on stage when MacArthur proclaimed he and they (the panel) were all theologically the same on social justice. So then by his own words, he's ok with a gay Anglican priest preaching to Christians about accepting gay Christians?
Shepherd's Conference 2019 Q&A. MacArthur says he'll fight error but not his friends (time mark 26:00). But his friends are the ones spreading error! Truth and error aren't seen as absolutes but rather personal opinions over which they can agree to disagree. They divide the man from his grave error, but God does not.
Al Mohler is a big promoter of the doctrinal triage. Because of that he's joined hands with the cults and the RCC for social justice issues. Here are the articles where I discuss him. He also buys into the psychological heresy of being born gay. He also upholds Romanist Rod Dreher who is promoting the original Benedict Monk which is the promotion of Roman Catholic's mysticism, despite Mohler trying to white wash it. Mohler's found great things in Marxist Nelson Mandela. Moreover Mohler continues to be heavily influenced by Marxist philosphyer Alasdair MacIntyre, as did Rod Dreher.
Ligon Duncan accepts homosexual Anglican priest as a "Christian" and pulpit fellowships with him.
It appears Shepherds Conference removed the video, so it's available here although with commentary (I don't endorse the website or the men commenting).
MacArthur is practicing the sinful doctrinal triage, where biblical truth is triaged into categories of essential, less essential, and non-essential.
Act 20:27 "For I did not shrink from declaring to you the whole purpose of God.
Act 20:28 "Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.
Act 20:29 "I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock;
Act 20:30 and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.
Act 20:31 "Therefore be on the alert, remembering that night and day for a period of three years I did not cease to admonish each one with tears.
1Ti 6:3 If anyone advocates a different doctrine, and does not agree with sound words, those of our Lord Jesus Christ, and with the doctrine conforming to godliness,
1Ti 6:4 he is conceited and understands nothing; but he has a morbid interest in controversial questions and disputes about words, out of which arise envy, strife, abusive language, evil suspicions,
1Ti 6:5 and constant friction between men of depraved mind and deprived of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain.
1Ti 6:20 O Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to you, avoiding worldly and empty chatter and the opposing arguments of what is falsely called "knowledge"--
1Ti 6:21 which some have professed and thus gone astray from the faith. Grace be with you.
