Apologist Ken Ham, president of the young-earth creationist organization Answers in Genesis, described MacArthur as "a long-time friend of our ministry."

Ham, whose post on X included a photo of himself with MacArthur at The Master's University, noted that MacArthur visited the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum in Kentucky.

"We'll soon be posting a tribute to this man who stood with us at [Answers in Genesis] for biblical authority starting in Genesis," Ham tweeted.

"Meanwhile, pray for his family — wife Patricia and their four children — and his church family at Grace Community Church. The last time I met with Dr. MacArthur was last year when I spoke at his school, The Master's University."
