You become like whatever you worship.

The heathen become like their gods.

How much more will Christians become like Christ?

When we make him the focus of our life because we are not just becoming like him on our own,

but by the work of the Holy Spirit, who is transforming us from one level of glory to the next

into the image of Jesus Christ.

Thank you. us from one level of glory to the next into the image of Jesus Christ. Welcome to Grace to You with John MacArthur. I'm your host, Phil Johnson. Today we're

continuing a series that is an interesting one for us here at Grace to You,

and we hope it's interesting for you as well.

Some months ago, we asked each of our staff members to name the one sermon of John MacArthur's

that they considered their favorite.

And of the messages they chose, we pulled together ten of them, and that's the series

we're in the middle of. It's

titled John MacArthur's Most Memorable Sermon. And now joining me in the studio is Eric G. Welcome,

Eric. Thank you, Phil. I'm excited to be here. John's teaching materials continue to be translated

into major world languages, and that's Eric's job. He oversees the global

distribution of those print and digital resources in other languages. And Eric, the message you chose

as your favorite of John's, it certainly has one of the more memorable titles of any of

John MacArthur's sermons. I think it's a favorite of a lot of

people. It's called Hacking Ag to Pieces. Why did you pick that sermon? Yeah, it's a great sermon

on how to respond to sin that's still in the believer. I remember first hearing it when I was at my old church.

I kind of remember the date.
