The Rev. Franklin Graham, the son of legendary evangelist Billy Graham and president of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, said Tuesday that MacArthur's "voice will be greatly missed."

"One of America's great Bible teachers, Pastor John MacArthur, has stepped into the presence of Almighty God," stated Graham, who also heads the Evangelical humanitarian organization Samaritan's Purse. "He could get more out of a Bible verse than anyone I've ever known."

"Today, the New York Times recognized him as a 'Firebrand Preacher and Culture Warrior' and said that he influenced generations of evangelical preachers — that is true," he added. "His voice will be greatly missed."
