Macarthur astutely capitalized on this situation, resigned his commission, obtained a grant of 5,000 acres of the best land in the colony, and returned in 1805 with the blessing of the British government to concentrate on the growing of fine wool.
Macarthur emerged as the chief leader of the private enterprise group adversely affected by Bligh's policy; the governor, in many ways as irascible and uncompromising as Macarthur, also provoked other elements in the settlement including some of the senior army officers.
Macarthur continued this process, and when Commissioner John Thomas Bigge recommended in 1822 that fine wool production be encouraged in the colony, Macarthur was able to take rapid advantage of the increasing opportunities.

 The John MacArthur File
Popular teacher Dr. John MacArthur is quoted: "Saving faith is a commitment to leave sin and follow Jesus at all costs." "Salvation is for those who are willing to forsake everything." Hymers says this is "pure Romanism" and concludes: "Much of today's preaching does not emphasize the gospel (1 Cor.
Therefore, signing it was not a problem for the board or for John." MacArthur doesn't think his teaching created the rift in the IFCA but blames it on "divisive" people.
It was MacArthur's "incarnational Sonship" teachings that triggered the controversy and the whole problem could have been easily solved from the beginning if the IFCA leadership had simply enforced its own doctrinal statement.

 John MacArthur
To many, John MacArthur is a champion of the faith whose voice is correcting many of the ills of Christianity.
MacArthur believes that there are certain doctrines found in Scripture that are the deciding factor in determining whether a person is a false teacher or not, or in the faith or not (This false teaching is actually very common in Christendom today).
MacArthur twists (2 Peter 3:16) the fear of God into a "reverential awe" that supposedly includes some kind of "holy terror," but excludes the holy "terror" Paul speaks of in 2 Corinthians 5:11, and the literal fear (terror, fright) that Jesus commands in Matthew 10:28 and Luke 12:4-5.

John MacArthur leaves no doubt that it is Evangelicals who generally have departed from the tenets of the Protestant faith.
MacArthur points out that the drift in Evangelical thinking has come about as a result of downplaying the importance of truth (the content of faith) and focusing on the faith itself.

 The Sufficiency of the Written Word   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
John tells us that not everything concerning Christ's work is in Scripture John 21:25), and Paul says that much Christian teaching is to be found in the tradition that is handed down by word of mouth (2 Timothy 2:2).
The fact that Jesus did and taught many things not recorded in Scripture John 20:30; 21:25) is wholly irrelevant to the principle of sola Scriptura.
The fact that most of the apostles' actual sermons in the early churches were not written down and preserved for us does not diminish the truth of biblical sufficiency one bit.
