Discover what Jesus meant when he said, "Follow me." And what happens when you do.

Only Jesus—from John MacArthur, author of the classic bestseller The Gospel According to Jesus —examines the gospel as Christ himself proclaimed it. And each chapter is now updated with extensive scriptural support for study and reflection to help you personally embrace a more complete understanding of the true way of salvation.

You'll learn the answer to questions like:

  • What does it mean to be saved
  • What is saving grace
  • Why does the Cross matter
  • What does it mean to be born again
  • What did Jesus teach about eternal life
  • What do "sin" and "repentance" mean
  • What is the role of the Holy Spirit in salvation

Only Jesus is perfect for:

  • Christians who want a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ.
  • Seekers who want to know who Jesus is and what he taught.

In Only Jesus, John MacArthur makes it clear that the gospel Jesus preached was a call to self-denial, radical changes, and serving Him. Difficult demands Impossible in human terms Yes, but attainable when we understand that the gospel is a call to faith, and genuine faith produces a heart that voluntarily responds to the ever-awakening reality of Christ's lordship. Only Jesus  examines the gospel that Jesus himself preached--with an eye toward gaining a thorough and proper understanding of the true way of salvation. He is the only One to whom we must turn for words of eternal life

John MacArthur will guide you in discovering how Jesus’s actual words and teachings call us to salvation and new life through the power of the Holy Spirit. You’ll see how transformation happens in our heart and life when we truly answer Christ’s call to discipleship.

  • Parables Workbook
    Jesus was a master storyteller, and the parables He told were ingeniously simple word pictures. Some of them were no more than fleeting remarks about commonplace incidents, objects, or persons. In fact, the most compact of all Jesus' short stories does not even fill a complete verse of Scripture. Yet the all were filled with profound spiritual lessons that He...
