I've got a couple of suggestions.
1) John MacArthur has decided that he has been abandoned by God
2) John MacArthur has decided that everyone except John MacArthur has been abandoned by God
3) John MacArthur has decided that both 1) and 2) are equally true at all times and he will now spend three years studying how to explain this succinctly so that at least Calvinists will think that they have understood it
Is John MacArthur a Calvinist ? I suppose that he is. I'm not sure what he's talking about in the video since I didn't bother to click on it. To me John MacArthur is a cessationist. Or if he isn't technically that then he's at least an anti-Charismatic. A very zealous one.
Yes it is important to know God.
And we know that God sent Jesus as the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.
And we need to know how that actually works out in life, because I was at a "church" today where they told their faithful that they were born again and became children of God when they were baptised as a baby.
Equally evil is telling people that if they repeat a particular form prayer they will be saved.
