In response to this post on Pentecostal Theology Worldwide,
Johnathan A. writes: "Unfortunately, John MacArthur has totally missed it for decades with regard to the work of the Holy Spirit. He has naively read the scriptures through the lenses of his preconceptions and Calvinistic-Baptistic values. In my opinion he has not discerned what The Lord has been doing by The Holy Spirit over the past 100 years all over the planet. All of this would be acceptable and possibly seen as just differences of theological opinion except that he has leveled his critiques so uncharitably. And, that reveals his heart."

What does MacArthur mean when he says: “charismatics influenced by classic Pentecostals?” Aren't they one and the same?
