God cannot save us by our works, because the only thing that we can present to Him is imperfection, and God just does not accept imperfection. You have to present to Him perfection, and that’s the only thing that God will accept. Now you and I are unable to present it. Therefore, if it depended on us or our works, we could never be saved. If deliverance is to come, it’ll have to come to us just like it came to Jonah—dead and hopeless in that fish. If he’s to live, if he’s to be used of God, it’s because “salvation is of the Lord.” And if you ever get saved, it’s because salvation is of the Lord.

Acerca de Dr. J. Vernon McGee

John Vernon McGee was born in Hillsboro, Texas, in 1904. Dr. McGee remarked, "When I was born and the doctor gave me the customary whack, my mother said that I let out a yell that could be heard on all four borders of Texas!" His Creator well knew that he would need a powerful voice to deliver a powerful message.

After completing his education (including a Th.M. and Th.D. from Dallas Theological Seminary), he and his wife came west, settling in Pasadena, California. Dr. McGee's greatest pastorate was at the historic Church of the Open Door in downtown Los Angeles, where he served from 1949 to 1970.

He began teaching Thru the Bible in 1967. After retiring from the pastorate, he set up radio headquarters in Pasadena, and the radio ministry expanded rapidly. Listeners never seem to tire of Dr. McGee's unique brand of rubber-meets-the-road teaching, or his passion for teaching the whole Word of God.

On the morning of December 1, 1988, Dr. McGee fell asleep in his chair and quietly passed into the presence of his Savior.
