A Final Appeal to Pastor John MacArthur on the Eve of His 'Strange Fire' Conference

As I write these words, the Holy Spirit is moving mightily around the earth, saving lost sinners, bringing rebels to repentance, healing sick bodies, setting captives free and, above all, glorifying the name of Jesus.
