learned a lot from RC Sproul, most notably the teaching on holiness of GOD, I thought I was a born again Christian for more than 30 years, till I heard his teaching on GOD'S holiness and had a 0.0000001% glimpse of GOD'S holiness in HIS WORD (BIBLE), that showed me my true wretched and filthy state, and through GOD'S grace, brought me to my knees and to repentance that leads unto life and to the worship of ONE TRIUNE GOD.
Amazing lessons from R.C. The more I walk in my Christian faith, the more I keep getting out of his teachings. Check out his book: Now, That's a Great Question.
When I get to Heaven, after bowing before my King Jesus and being reunited with my loved ones, I'm gonna find RC and go golfing with him! Love this man's heart and mind!
I have recently started listening to Mr. Sproul, and my only regret of starting is that I started three years after his death. At least I have RUclips to learn and enjoy the legacy he left behind.
S.g. W Nothing you have said has anything to do with me or my comment. There’s no right or wrong here the man teaches the Bible and that is always right. Obviously everyone has an opinion that’s why you just gave one, and in my opinion he was an awesome teacher as was Spurgeon
@@reynaldodavid2913Jo I’ve never appreciated comparing 2 humans to each other. Even identical twins are individuals with their own path. Sturgeon died in the 1800’s so any comparison you make is unnecessary and completely irrelevant since you are not hearing all his yrs of preaching… even with the recordings we have. However, I went to Sprouls church, listened to his live tapes, then recordings for many yrs. Simply put, there’s no need for comparison
What a preacher ! We miss you RC. Would have loved to hear how you would have preached now during this pandemic with so many Christians running around fearful of the Covid. The gospel is the only truth to preach - no other preachings should be listened When everything changes NOTHING changes for the Christian we keep our eyes on God 🙏🛐
RC was a devoted , zealous , great preacher and and theologian. and holds his preachings wholy from the bible. He and Macathur have stood firm in the conservstive interpretation of the bible. RC is now in the presence of the Lord Jesus🙏💐🌷
@S.g. W If you're a new believer, feel free to check out GTY resources, and research what biblical Christianity means for the true believer. Best of providence.

New age will get you in alot of trouble and damn you to hell so beware!!! Communicating With Your Inner Spirit” - “Your inner spirits/inner guides/higher power are always communicating with you. … explore the power of meditation to deepen your communication with your inner spirit.”

Romans 16:20 And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
Amen Sproul. Jesus Christ will deliver us from the plateaus and into the victorious mountain ranges. Praise be unto God for His abounding love and mercy. God bless you all.

Most pastor will stop and just end you just need to be living perfectly. Rc sproul is down to earth and knows the struggle. I wish more reformed pastor like john macarthur had this humility to admit this.
The goal of Christian living must be to achieve the maximum holiness possible! Just like breaking a record is true only for the person who broke that record, but it makes it impossible for anyone to say that that record is an impossible goal! And who knows what the maximum possible holiness is?
Great sermon illustrated by RC’s personal anecdotes. Re: temporary zeal, see also Matt 13:20-21 - the word is first received with joy but dureth only for a while.
Living in the "face of God" is a difficult "wrestling match against myself, " the sin principle that remains with me until I die. I am a Christian who served in the 3/506th 101st airborne infantry during the 1968 Tet Offensive in Viet Nam. The Lord caused me to live in spite of by bullet wound which chopped up my femoral artery.

What a great, profound sermon! I am reminded of the wonderful statement by the great Olympic runner, Eric Liddell, in the film, Chariots of Fire, "When I run I feel His pleasure!"
With all due respect to RC whom I respect well, in this verse, is it not: if you love me, if you keep on loving me (from beholding me), you will be (end up) keeping my commandments? After all, both Paul Washer & Michael Durham interpreted ‘obedience’ as a consequence. Obedience is the consequence of inner joy/rejoicing IN Christ alone. Also, obedience is the consequence of inner love poured out by the Holy Spirit afresh into our hearts whenever a truth in Scripture is truly internally 100% believed. Even in OT, the joy of the Lord is my strength to obey-all to the glory of God. Right? However, I so agree that the only way to abide in God to glorify Him, is to persevere with God-ordained means of grace & trust Him for His own (humanly unearned) grace in saving perseverance of us all.
Not sure preaching without notes is particularly wise or relevant; but I never spoke to anyone who didn't love RC ! He was a down-to-earth kind of man who kept it heavenly in the pulpit. MacArthur, my pastor for years, loved him dearly and eulogized him at his send-off. Does anyone know when RC gave up the smokes? I think that's what got him ...not sure. Spurgeon was also a smoker -- cigars. I'm not trying to justify smoking, which I gave up years ago, or anyone else's .. just to say: he was a regular guy , now in glory!
@@TheAvenstar I wouldn't want to speak without notes myself, I love John MacArthur, but I didn't know R. C. Until after he went home, I know he was a regular guy, used by God, and that what we pray for ourselves, to be humble and used by God. Do you go to Grace community Church?
@@randycadkins Hello. I do not attend Grace Community Church anymore since moving to Orange County in 2017. However, I still support Grace To You, and catch all Pastor John's sermons on RUclips.
@@TheAvenstar I love to hear that you still catch all the sermons, I'd like to visit some time, but I haven't had the opportunity yet, God willing I'll get to, but I'm glad to have talked with you, John in my understanding is one of the most Biblical preachers I have come across, and I pray that God will make me as faithful in preaching as well. God bless
@@randycadkins I first heard Mac (I've always called him that. No disrespect intended) on the radio in the late 70s or early 80s. Not sure. I'm a former catholic, converted to Christianity in '77 while living in Chicago. Moved to L.A. just to attend Grace Church. May God bless you in your ministry as you stay faithful to the Word and avoid the traps of preaching pop messages. I know that has always been the key to the growth of Grace Community Church. The place is packed with thousands of young people feasting on the exposited Word ...NOT some temporal message which may or may not impact their immediate future.
John 5 : 36 " But I have greater testimony than John's. The works which the Father granted to me to accomplish, the very works which I do, are evidence about me to prove that my Father has sent me."
As a believer in meticulous determination , e.g. 'no rogue molecules', Sproul would be forced to admit no man could live in any way other than that which God has already determined for that man. If he was right, to encourage people to do anything is just going through the motions for it is already determined what they will or will not do, as is his encouragement. It's nuts. The argument that God ordains the 'means' is no refuge. Creating a being with libertarian free will is no threat to God, as demonstrated by Noah's flood and the Tower of Babel. God always has options for those who choose not to cooperate.
Why would you assume people who learn piano want to become concert performers? Maybe they just want to know the basics so they can play. The leap from wanting to learn piano to becoming a concert player is enormous.
The very reason God created us was to love him and keep his commandments and, yes, that means God's law that he never even mentions. Ezekiel 36:27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them. This is what pleasing God is all about. Romans 8:There is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus who walk in the righteousness of the law empowered by the Spirit. We obey God's law and that is our righteousness, not just cleansing of our sins by the blood. 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. 8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. Those who will not have God reign over them, who will not be under the law of God, hate God and cannot please him. Jesus did not obey the law for us. This is our righeousness. 1 John 3:3 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. 7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

And yet not one word about faith in this whole 26 min. video. You would think that if scripture said of one thing you would have to do, that without it, it would be impossible to please God, he would at least mention it. Well, here it is Heb. 11:6 "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." Why did he not mention the parable of the lost sheep? Could it be because the sheep did nothing and deserves no glory? And he twists the parable of the lost coin in such a way that we are the woman searching?? Christ is not lost. We are. And the prodigal only came home because he was hungry. He had no where else to go. He didn't "press in to reach his father." Wow! I never knew much about this guy either. Not what I expected.
The Messiah (Jesus) son of Mary he is not GOD but a messenger, God almighty can NOT have a human Mother so are they saying the GOD almighty is half Human? Search for the truth "one message foundation" here RUclips God does not have son and will not sent his son to die for our sin, Everybody they are responsible for their own deed Ezekiel 18:20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
How do you understand Philippians 2: 5-8? "Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross."
I don't like this video. R.C. Sproul spend too much time on stories illustrating problem, but not say anything substantial on how we can please the Lord.
You Do NOT Please God by going to R.C.Sproul! Jesus Said To Seek HIM and His Righteousness. Jesus Gives direct personal revelation to everyone who Seek Him. If you Seek Jesus..You will Get Jesus. If you seek R.C.Sproul..you will get some mans cherry-picked bible version of Jesus. Seek Jesus..Himself..Folks!
But God also speaks to us through preachers; we could see Paul preaching and debating with an audience in the Bible. And if anyone doesn't cherry-pick it is R.C. His authority comes solely from scripture.
Allen Darby Jesus Words are the Standard. If what a man says is not in line with what Jesus Said..it is either untrue or unimportant. Jesus IS Gods Word. The Bible is full of opinions that are Not in line with what Jesus Teaches. That is what men teach..man crap!
Subira Mukami Gods Words are in the Bible..but most of the words are stories..men’s opinions and hear say. I believe Gods WORD..Jesus. Jesus told us that the Tares would be sown with the wheat and left to the End. If you like believing Tares..Go for it! Good Luck to you!
Finally, I have found a teacher.

Me too. Recently started listening to his talks in the evening as a family. He speaks with conviction.
What a joy listening to this brilliant mind.
Weird! This is an old SNL video!
Yes, Dr. Sproul may be the best Bible teacher in a classroom format in the last century. His teaching is so very rich !
RC Sproul in our time, was the equivalent of CH Spurgeon back then. His messages will live on to teach Pastors and lay persons alike

And believe me, if I can understand something:. Anyone can.

Why did he not mention the parable of the lost sheep? Could it be because the sheep did nothing and deserves no glory? And he twists the parable of the lost coin in such a way that we are the woman searching?? Christ is not lost. We are. And the prodigal only came home because he was hungry. He had no where else to go. He didn't "press in to reach his father." Wow! I never knew much about this guy either. Not what I expected.
if you can preach it better.. youtube has plenty of bandwidth for everyone.
The Messiah (Jesus) son of Mary he is not GOD but a messenger, God almighty can NOT have a human Mother so are they saying the GOD almighty is half Human? Search for the truth "one message foundation" here RUclips
God does not have son and will not sent his son to die for our sin, Everybody they are responsible for their own deed
Ezekiel 18:20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
How do you understand Philippians 2: 5-8? "Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross."
I don't like this video. R.C. Sproul spend too much time on stories illustrating problem, but not say anything substantial on how we can please the Lord.
You Do NOT Please God by going to R.C.Sproul! Jesus Said To Seek HIM and His Righteousness. Jesus Gives direct personal revelation to everyone who Seek Him. If you Seek Jesus..You will Get Jesus. If you seek R.C.Sproul..you will get some mans cherry-picked bible version of Jesus. Seek Jesus..Himself..Folks!
But God also speaks to us through preachers; we could see Paul preaching and debating with an audience in the Bible. And if anyone doesn't cherry-pick it is R.C. His authority comes solely from scripture.

Jesus Words are the Standard. If what a man says is not in line with what Jesus Said..it is either untrue or unimportant. Jesus IS Gods Word. The Bible is full of opinions that are Not in line with what Jesus Teaches. That is what men teach..man crap!
@@kathleenwharton2139 Heresy! Are you saying that the Bible is not the word of God!??

Gods Words are in the Bible..but most of the words are stories..men’s opinions and hear say. I believe Gods WORD..Jesus. Jesus told us that the Tares would be sown with the wheat and left to the End. If you like believing Tares..Go for it! Good Luck to you!
What a stupid comment
No one is seeking RC. Anymore than Peter. Paul John. Etc
Teachers are set in place BY Jesus
