@HP I have contacted you several times through DM

[Christi Lynn @Christihall]

I am on week 3 with @HP trying to get a resolution for $1000 laptop that is defective (no display) after 8 months. They want me to pay to have it fixed and be "reimbursed" or I send them my credit card info as collateral so they can send me a box to have it fixed. HP do better!!

When the Preacher Goes Home

A tribute to Pastor John MacArthur’s final days and the unshakable hope of every believer facing death.

John MacArthur’s last sermon is not with words, but with his life. Now, with tubes in his lungs and the weight of pneumonia pressing down, John MacArthur may be nearing the end of his earthly race.

We are not ready.

We are not ready for men like him to go silent.

You don’t have to agree with everything he said to know what he stood for. He stood for Scripture. For truth spoken like thunder…clear, costly, and close.

For pulpits that didn’t wink at sin or bow to trends.

He preached judgment. He preached grace. He kept preaching when others padded their stage lights and softened their sermons. He stayed when others sold out.

Now the voice that taught us to tremble at the text is whispering in a hospital room. Maybe it has already stopped.

The Shepherd Knows the Valley

We like to think we’re immortal. We numb ourselves with noise, pretending death isn’t pacing the hallway. But not MacArthur. He never pretended death was anything other than what it is…a judgment, a sentence, a reckoning.

He called it an appointment. And he meant it.

Somewhere in the infinite wisdom of God is a calendar. On it is a date. Yours. Mine. His.

We say we believe that, but John preached it. Week after week. He told rooms full of people that their secrets would be shouted and their lives would stand naked before the throne.

If death comes this week, he will not die alone. The Shepherd walks through the valley. Not ahead. Not behind. With.

That is promise.

A Life That Preached Its Own Eulogy

He didn’t just preach the Word. He lived like he would answer for every word he ever spoke and he preached like you would too.

He didn’t flirt with hell. He named it. He warned about it. He pointed to the blood of Christ as the only way out of it.

There’s something in us that wants our heroes to stay. We imagine they’ll preach forever. But the books will close. The conferences will move on. The pulpit will be vacant. And when the shepherds fall silent, wolves howl a little louder.

That’s why this matters.

MacArthur’s death…if this is it…is not just personal. It’s generational. Who will take the torch? Who will preach like Scripture is real? Who will be brave enough to offend?

Where Do We Go From Here?

Where do we go when the preacher dies?

Not just any preacher. A preacher who stood like a stone in the cultural tide. A preacher who buried trends and exalted truth. A preacher who made people uncomfortable and made the Word unavoidable.

Maybe we should start by getting uncomfortable ourselves.

Because the truth is: we are soft. Our sermons are shorter. Our pulpits safer. We speak of sin like it’s a personality quirk and of death like it’s a vague transition.

But John MacArthur told the truth. He said the thing we all know in our bones: we will die.

The clock is ticking and most hearts are asleep.

A Scene Worth Remembering

Imagine the room.

The monitors pulse slow. The breathing machine clicks and wheezes like an old organ. His hands, once used to hold thick Bibles and mark Greek verbs, lie still on the sheets.

A nurse tiptoes around his bed, unaware that she is walking next to one of the most influential preachers of the last hundred years.

His eyes are closed. But his soul is awake.

And then, without ceremony, the silence is broken…not in the room, but in heaven.

Christ steps forward.

Not an angel. Christ Himself.

“Today you will be with Me.”

And the man who taught millions to fear God meets the God he feared.

He does not flinch. He falls into the arms of the Savior whose wounds he spent his life explaining.

This is our future…if we are in Christ.

What Death Means for the Christian

If you’re not a Christian, hear me.

When you die, everything you ever lived for will be lost. The money, the power, the followers, the pleasure…all of it ends.

But for the Christian, death is not loss. It is gain. The breaking of bread with the King. The embrace of the One who never left you. The final sermon, preached not with words, but with glory.

Death is not sleep. It is separation. The soul from the body. The believer from the world. And for those in Christ, it is the final closing of the distance.

John MacArthur is not going to a cloud. He is going home.

Psalm 116:15 says, “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints.” Not tragic. Precious. Like a child coming home from far away. Like the moment the door opens and the lights are on and the Father is waiting.

Don’t Let This Moment Pass

Let this death do what most sermons cannot.

Let it awaken you.

Let it make you hate your sin. Let it make you repent. Let it make you stare at the mirror and ask if your life will echo after your body is buried.

Because one day it will be you.

And the real question will not be how many followers you had or how successful your ministry looked.

It will be this:

Did you know Christ?

John MacArthur did. And if this is the end of his earthly ministry, then we can only say: well done. Not because he was perfect. Not because he always got it right. But because he finished.

So where do we go from here?

We go to the Word.

We go to our knees.

And someday, we go home.

The pulpit is silent.

But the Word still speaks.

@gracetoyou Another great warrior for God gone, but receiving his reward - Jesus. Thank you for your years of faithful obedience.

@HP (4/4) I’m stuck again—pressured to accept a refurbished unit for a $300+ printer that barely got used.

This failure wasn’t mine. It’s HP’s tech that failed. It’s not right to treat 30 year brand loyal customers this way.

Do better.

@HP going on 4+ hrs trying to fix my barely-used HP Smart Tank 7602, gifted to me for my law enforcement ministry.

Chat Support first blamed a software update, then said it’s a hardware issue—no clear answers, just confusion.

[Christi Lynn @Christihall]

@HP @HP (3/3) Finally got off chat. Told them I expect a new printer—they couldn’t promise that. Said I’d get an email with shipping info & a call from the “concerns team.”

Someone called—but was nearly impossible to understand. Then told me I’d get a refurbished unit.

God doesn’t need a book to reach your unbelieving friends; He doesn’t need your efforts either. But He allows us a role in the process so we can be reminded of His power. https://t.co/S3GEw5JCje via @TheThinBlueLife
