The
Master's University (John MacArthur) has an new study program... in Italy?
So... we ask why? Here's the short notes.

The Master's College has changed its
name to "The Master's University" (TMU) and has started a new summer
study program in Italy - including Rome and the Vatican. This should alarm a
lot of people that John MacArthur is not as far away from Rome as he says he
is.
"Program Description
The
Master’s University in Italy is a new study abroad program... grounded in the
study of the European Renaissance and Reformation. Students will live in
Florence for six weeks in the summer and earn twelve (12) undergraduate
credits...
Importance
...
Florence, the city in which TMU in Italy will be based, is the cradle of the
Renaissance and the birthplace of the modern world. It is the city of Dante,
Petrarch, Giotto, Michelangelo, Da Vinci, Galileo, Boccaccio, Cimabue,
Brunelleschi and Donatello, the Medici banking family, Botticelli, Savonarola,
Machiavelli, Rossini. And, of course, Amerigo Vespucci—for whom America was
named.... the Italian Renaissance Christian Humanist scholars...” (Psalm 8)..."

>> Short Notes: As Mr. Grant
Horner just explained so well - most (if not all) of these "scholars"
were humanists - far from followers of Christ, they pretend that man is the
solution which worships man instead of God. We give the short concerning
history of each of these people in our longer report.
> Conclusion - none of these were followers of Christ, nor
leaders that are respectable men of the Bible. Please don't miss this point -
Mr. Horner is promoting those people as good, not exposing them as evil.
And why do the students get 12 credits
in these 6 weeks? Who is trying to pollute these young people's minds with so
much evil?
Romans 1 reminds us what
"humanism" is doing and what these men are doing:
"22 Professing
to be wise, they became fools, 23 and
changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made
like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping
things. 24 Therefore
God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to
dishonor their bodies among themselves, 25 who
exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the
creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen."
(Romans 1:22-25)
The site also explains further about
this new location for this summer study program:
"Locations
We
will be living in a lovely Medieval/Renaissance period villa in Florence with
trips to Rome, Venice, and Pisa, as well as extensive time spent in museums,
palaces, classical-era ruins, Renaissance gardens, the Vatican museum and
libraries, and the famous Mediterranean Coast."

>> You probably noticed that
Rome was on the list, and so is the Vatican museum... wow! Does John MacArthur
know this - did he approve it? Absolutely! You see, since 1985, MacArthur has
held the president position of the "Master's College" and he
officially started the "Master's Seminary" within a year of becoming
president of Master's College (now called "Master's University",
something that happened in 2017). Both college and seminary are accredited by
the Rockefeller's "higher-learning" accreditation corporations. But,
that's not the only thing that caught our attention and caused more alarm.

Here's just a clip of Grant Horner's
profile:
"DEGREES

BIO
...
Professor Horner is the Founder and Director of The Master’s University in
Italy Program, a six-week summer intensive study abroad semester. Students live
in an ancient villa in the city that was the birthplace of the modern world in
the Renaissance: beautiful Florence. We also spend time in Rome and
Venice...
...
Horner was named “Professor of the Year” in May 2001, his second year at The
Master’s University, and again in 2007..."

>> Short notes: So...
Why does the college/university that MacArthur runs have a guy who teaches such
blatant secularism and anti-Biblical stuff? The Renaissance? That was
anti-Biblical, not pro-Biblical. And Shakespeare? He was just the man who portrayed
the scripts written by the Knights Templar Sir Francis Bacon (part of the royal
family in Britain) - but the scripts are completely pagan, and advocate and/or
at least excuse sexual immorality and witchcraft as okay, or at least
"normal" and reject the God of the Bible...
Another concern is Mr. Horner's
training at UN Chapel Hill. UNC stands for University of North Carolina, and
the Chapel Hill campus is the same campus that anti-Biblical professors such as
Bart Ehrman teach at. Bart is known for his absurd lies against the Bible and
active satanic work to turn people from reading and trusting the Word of God
and studying it for themselves.... Some of his titles are:
"Forged: Writing in the Name of God--Why the Bible’s
Authors Are Not Who We Think They Are"
"Lost Christianities: The Battles for Scripture and the
Faiths We Never Knew"
"Lost Scriptures: Books that Did Not Make It into the
New Testament"
"Jesus Before the Gospels: How the Earliest Christians
Remembered, Changed, and Invented Their Stories of the Savior"
"Misquoting Jesus: The Story Behind Who Changed the
Bible and Why"
"Jesus, Interrupted: Revealing the Hidden
Contradictions in the Bible (And Why We Don't Know About Them)"
"How Jesus Became God : the Exaltation of a Jewish
Preacher from Galilee"
And
Bart's latest satanic writing: "The Triumph
of Christianity: How a Forbidden Religion Swept the World"
If you were to read any of them, as we
have read some here and there, you would quickly notice the intentional
falsehoods of Mr. Ehrman who is *trying* to insult the Bible and make it say
things he wants it to, to turn people away from the Scriptures. He isn't even
trying to "critically analyze" them, he's just trying to slander
them. So... why is this professor (Grant Horner) who learned from Bart and his
friends - teaching at Master's University? And why did he get "Teacher of
the Year" in 2001 and 2007? Why does he have the okay from MacArthur and
his team? Also, why does John quote Bart Ehrman four times in his book called "Slave"?
On the concern about the
"nudity" of statues and art in Italy, the site said this:
"What should students consider about being exposed to art forms that
include nudity?
Throughout the Italy program students will be
exposed to many forms of art, including representations of the human form.
Sometimes, this includes nudity. We understand that in humans’ fallen
state, nudity is shameful and can sear a Christian’s conscience. We don’t want
to hurt any student’s conscience and if a student thinks he or she will be tempted
by the nudity represented in the art all over Italy, then the student should
not participate in TMU in Italy. If the student is not sure, the student can
meet with Professors Chua and Horner."
>> Short notes: WOW!
just wow... No care to say that this indecent artwork is wrong according to
God's Word. Just an attitude of if it "offends" you, then you
"might not want to come." Really? Wow...
And, God condemns John and Grant
through Peter:
"... 12 But these, like
natural brute beasts made to be caught and destroyed, speak evil of the things
they do not understand, and will utterly perish in their own corruption, 13 and
will receive the wages of unrighteousness... They are spots and blemishes,
carousing in their own deceptions while they feast with you, 14 having eyes
full of adultery and that cannot cease from sin, enticing unstable souls. They
have a heart trained in covetous practices, and are accursed children. 15 They
have forsaken the right way and gone astray, following the way of Balaam the
son of Beor... 18 For when they speak great swelling words of emptiness, they
allure through the lusts of the flesh, through lewdness, the ones who have
actually escaped from those who live in error. 19 While they promise them
liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption; for by whom a person is
overcome, by him also he is brought into bondage...'" (2nd Peter
2:4-10, 12-22)
Many people have been fooled by John
MacArthur for a long time. Why? Because MacArthur got notoriety among
Christians, because he sounded like us - but he didn't live like us. it's odd
that right now Macarthur is becoming more bold in showing what he really
believes and even slipping and saying more as he adds to Scripture. From the
best that we can tell, the hidden hierarchy behind the "evangelical
machine" (the NWO leaders and the Vatican) keep giving commands to the
501c3s here in America to move more toward Rome and away from the Bible, and
these 501c3s have to obey these secret
orders or face the harassment and/or loss of their 501c3 status and/or
their degrees from Rockefeller-run colleges and/or Rockefeller-accredited
colleges, etc. So, the whole group of corporate "churches" is sliding
downhill and more toward sin together - making the wide gap between them and
honest Christians more clear, so much so that the home-church movement keeps
growing in numbers and spiritual maturity and has done so since the 1980s...
But, some may ask - hasn't MacArthur
spoken out against Rome? The answer is - almost, but no. If you do much study
of the articles or listen to many of the audios on John MacArthur's websites
(gracechurch.org and gty.org), you can find that MacArthur and his team do talk
about Roman Catholicism and how it is wrong doctrinally... but they are very
careful to tiptoe up to the line (but never cross) into calling Rome's
"church" and teachings what Jesus and Scripture would call them --
wolves in sheep's clothing, flattering the simple-minded and rebellious to get
their money and life-long support. But, to explain more on how clearly God
talks about the Roman Vatican itself, all we have to do is look in the Book of
Revelation. "3 So he [the
angel] carried me away in the [Holy]
Spirit into the wilderness. And I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet
beast which was full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads
and ten horns. 4 The
woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and
precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of
abominations and the filthiness of her fornication. 5 And
on her forehead a name was written: MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE
MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. 6 I
saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood
of the martyrs of Jesus. And when I saw her, I marveled with great
amazement." (Revelation 17:3-6)
That's God Himself calling the religious establishment during the Tribulation
that controls all of the world religions (the Vatican) and yet pretends to be
good... but is guilty of murdering the saints and servants of God - yes, God
calls that "woman" a spiritual and sexually immoral harlot, drunk
with the blood of the saints and full of every vile sin. Yes, brethren, THAT is
what God calls the Vatican... why is MacArthur too afraid to plainly quote the
whole counsel of the Word of God?...
Remember, God had Paul teach the
example: "For we are not, as so many,
peddling the word of God; but as of sincerity, but as from
God, we speak in the sight of God in Christ."
(2nd Corinthians 2:17)

Conclusion (for this short
article):
What Grant is teaching is horrible! He
has no excuse, and he's not even teaching it (based on his words) by exposing
the evil deeds of these "enlightenment scholars" to teach students
not to live like them. Nope, even by the testimony of at least one student,
Grant loves to mix in Greek mythology into it and make it all interesting and
exciting. No Biblical teaching here - just replacing Jesus with the
"enlightenment scholars". Grant cannot teach these evil things and
obey Jesus at the same time. If a Christian teacher tried to do what Grant
Horner is doing, God would chasten him (as Hebrews 12 teaches). So then, why
does anyone pretend that Grant Horner is a Christian? Why don't they call him
what he is showing himself to be - an enemy of God and the Bible? Jesus said: "‘And you shall
love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your
mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment."
(Mark 12:30) Grant isn't obeying Jesus' primary command, and worse, John is not
only giving approval to this twisted anti-Biblical teaching, but he's also
honored Grant as "teacher of the year" 2 years at The Master's
College/University. John cannot dodge this - he's guilty here, big time. God makes
this clear in 1st John 2: "15 Do not love the world or the things in the
world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in
him. 16 For all that is in the world—the lust of the
flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father
but is of the world." (1st John 2:15-16)
What bothers us more on this is
MacArthur's link to Rome, as well as his Jesuit connections - which we plan to
highlight in an upcoming report. Here are three articles that start to address
those concerns:
