The Sin of David: Psalm 51 with R.C. Sproul

- In Psalm 51, David expresses deep remorse for the sins that he committed against his holy God. What prompted this sincere confession? In this message, R.C. Sproul discusses how the Lord used the prophet Nathan to confront David with the seriousness of his sin and draw him back to God. Dr. Sproul considers how the Holy Spirit convicts us of sin in our own lives and restores us to an intimate relationship with our Heavenly Father.
This message is from Dr. Sproul’s 8-part teaching series Psalm 51. Learn more: www.ligonier.org/learn/series...
This is why I love reformed theology. Without being born again you are able to wink at sin. After regeneration you realize your total depravity. Thank you Ligonier Ministries and RC Sproul for your service. 🙏😊🙏
Very nice except we BEGIN to realize. It must have been much different for the 1 who actually bore the death penalty. There was no substitute for Him, and there was no reprieve on that day.
The people he suffered for can be sure of two things:
They must be so guilty helpless vile rotten and awful to incur such wrath.
And they must be worth the price of the payment to the one who cleared the debt in full.
You're saying the David got born again
@@shirleyriggs5204 Actually the bible says it. God bless! 🙏😊🙏
Psalm 51:11
New International Version
11 Do not cast me from your presence
or take your Holy Spirit from me.
Without a doubt, R. C Sproul, was one of those awesome gifted men of GOD!
Today is February 23, 2023. And on this day, let us pray for musicians and instrument makers.
I miss this gentleman and teacher of scripture, i have learnt so much from you Prof R.C.
This story regarding David and Bathsheba is such a sharp reminder to our propensity to sin sexually. David acted with calloused heart and took what wasn't his. The sin is still poignant after 3000 years.
Cast me not away from thy presence
Take not your Holy Spirit from me.
Thank God for granting repentance and restoration ❤
And the awesome Psalm 51!
"How then can I do this great wickedness and sin against God?"
Genesis 39:9
Lord may we be like Joseph
But he married a pagan Egyptian. Which was equally a sin.
@@stuartjohnson5686 Pharaoh gave him this wife. He was raised as an Egyptian.
The wife followed him in worship.
His heart was not turned from God.
Not like Solomon who followed his heathen wives and turned from God
@@jessyjonas4988 the cool thing is the names he gave his children and the command to take his bones back!
He may never have seen his home again in life but he must have believed Adonai s promise to his ancestors.
@@iacoponefurio1915
Manasseh - to forget. ( God made him forget all his hardship)
Ephraim- Fruitful. ( God made him fruitful)
He did believe the promises of God.
Joseph kept his eyes on God and his heart steady with love for Him.
By blessing the younger over the older he also typified the grace of God bestowed on us without merit
@@jessyjonas4988 Yes and many times the Northern tribes are even referred to as "Ephraim".
No fallen man on earth could have maintained a faith he had come up with. Surely God himself is the author and sustainer.
I love listening to these. So much to learn and discover.
I’m so very thankful for this message.
Thank you for this biblical truth. 🙂
How can you make a comment like this? If you understood biblical truth you would not agree with Bill.
@@carmensiekierke3579 Who's Bill?
@@CRACKBONE7317 Bill Baehr.....a man who has trolled Ligonier in the comment section for months........ posting comments based on believing the false premises found in George Barna and Frank Viola's book " Pagan Christianity."
I'd suggest Ligonier, turn off the comment section it's becoming a platform for scammers and trolls.
If only they could limit it to real seekers, people with real relevant questions.
Ignore them
@@creativeobx8367 well they give those who have put the effort into the learning an opportunity to refute some of the common fallacies. Just might wear some people out dealing with the lunatics of the internet haha.
I think that's a pretty terrible idea, Ligonier is not infallible, and teaching on the Bible should always be open to critique or correction.
Not a good idea. It shall deny all of us an opportunity to comment and yet we are not scammers. Ignore them please.
When Nathan said "thou art that man" only then did David know it,... but before Nathan said this, David was furious at such an injustice, yet he couldn't see it was he who was being spoken of until Nathen said "thou art that man", and his eyes were opened after these words,.. I think he was being tested in the way Hezekiah was in first Chronicles 32:31-32 where it said when the emissaries from Babylon were coming to ask about the miracle in the land,... God left him,... to test him,.. and to see all that was in his heart, so when God tests you, He must "leave" you to test you. and this seemingly happens a number of times in the Bible,.. when Peter was told by Jesus that he would deny Him three times before the rooster crowed, you would think he could have caught himself after the first, or at least the second time he did it, but only after the third time and then only after the rooster crowed did he become aware that he had done exactly what Jesus said he would do, as the same with Joseph,.. the Bible said God was with Joseph, and is why I believe everything he did was so successful and why he was ABLE to run,....
May the peace of God and his incomparable love continue among you as you focus on the next future that God has for your country. Blessings.
Convicts me to the soul 😭 RC described me

Human desires r so strong that we need to keep in check n disciplined ourselves to not entertain those thoughts cz once we entertain it,we bound to fall n we hv seen many Servants of Christ falls many times as they let those thoughts get into them n so they act on..Evn David a strong king who defeated many Big n strong kings too fall to this desire.So we need to check this thought wen it arises n not to entertain it.David paid heavily for his Sins n we too if we give in to this desire we will hv to pay a huge price n that's y LUST is one of the Seveb Deadly Sin.
AHMEN R.C. SPROUL... THANK YOU.... I WILL SEE YOU IN Heaven...THANK YOU JESUS AHMEN.
Ligonier, this is interesting view~✨
Thanks
Brothers and Sisters,King David committed adultery but I say to you whomever sees a women with sinful desires had already done adultery. Pray Our eyes be full of Light so our bodies may be filled with light
As I read it, David’s covering up a “love child” scandal - he tries to send Uriah back home so it would be assumed he’s the father of his wife’s baby - it’s when Uriah insists on doing his duty that David orders Joab to abandon Uriah to the enemy - but Joab countermands David & Uriah is killed in the normal course of the battle - so David’s guilty of murderous intent but perhaps not effect - still, plenty to “displease” the Lord

Sproul was great but the recording is a little low.
This is an example of how men distort the doctrine of Paul as Peter says, to their own destruction,when David's sin is made the sin of all mankind , but God;s forgiveness is not made the forgiveness of all mankind, as Paul teaches in Roman's chapter 5v19, by one man's Adam's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one man Christ, many shlall be made righteous, since Mr Sproul teaches that all men are made sinners when Adam disobeyed God , it means that all men are made righteoius when Christ obeyed God, needless to say Paul does not teach that all men inherit death in Adam and inherit life in Christ, or inherit unrighteousness in Adam and inherit inherit righteousness in Christ, I decide to follow Adam's example and die, and I decide to follow the example of Christ by the enabling power of the Holy Spirt and Live, in Romans chapter 8
CORRECTION- Do not repeat the common error.. It was David (2 Sam 11:2) who was on the rooftop - NOT the woman (whom Nathan described as a beloved, innocent (as a daughter) ewe lamb in 2 Sam 12: 3 - she was a helpless,, innocent woman who was overtaken by a powerful man (David's servants took her - she did not come to him ( 2 Sam 11:4)
So David sent messengers and took her, and she came to him, and he lay with her. (Now she had been purifying herself from her uncleanness.) Then she returned to her house.
2 Samuel 11:4 ESV
While nothing in the text clearly indicates that Bathsheba is guilty of anything, there's nothing which indicates she's completely free of guilt either. The Bible is silent on that I believe.
I think Uriah and his wife loved each other... Add it might not make much sense that she in any form consented to this sin, but such is the nature of sin, it is senseless and hurts the ones we love.
But I think the Bible is silent on Bathsheba's guilt, so best not to make her compliant or make David's sin worse than what is explicitly stated.
Both committed adultery and both punished by the death of their first child. There's nothing like exception due to intimidation or fear to God Almighty he always provides a way out. So the fact that she accepted proves it was in her desire both were wrong because remember she had a husband, Uriah
Bathing on her rooftop to keep from being seen by people on the street and most likely behind a screen to keep from the view of her neighbors if they were to be on her rooftop. David, being king could also be on his rooftop looking down at her as she was on her rooftop, seeing as it was common for palaces to be taller or positioned on a ridge above the city. It doesn't mean RC was wrong, it is possible they were BOTH on their own rooftops.
@@ngugisimon6471 Inclined to agree here, I think if David forced himself on her, the bible would have made that clear. Also, we should keep in mind that David is and was one of, if not the most famous Kings ever. He's pretty much a superhero as well. Blessed by God with an ongoing list of his 'wins' and the things he did that were right in the eyes of God. I don't doubt that as David found her tempting, he had to be extremely tempting to her as well.
But outside of what the bible clearly reveals to us, the rest is speculation. And as you said, they committed terrible sin, were punished, and David repented before the Lord.
Let us not forget that what led to this temptation in the first place was the fact that David was home kicking back instead of being with his men out in the field fighting the battles of the Lord.
The whole point of this story is not to tell us how great a sin David or Bathsheba had committed, but to it’s meant to warn us, that should we ever let our guard down and relax in our Christian walk, so that we forget that we are in a spiritual battle against the enemies of God, who are out to get us to compromise and destroy our souls, we too will fall into the same snare and temptation of the Devil. This story is meant by God to be held up as a mirror in order that we might see ourselves in David.
Let’s not miss the point. David was a godly man. And if he could fall into temptation and the snare of the Devil, who are we to think that we would fare any better given the similar circumstances. Let him who thinks he stands take heed, lest he fall.
Did you hear what he said? Our beloved Lord David was Conceited!
"CONCEDED to be far and away, the greatest of the Jewish kings..."
Conceded means it was granted to him as a right or privilege.
"Conceited" in the context of that sentence makes absolutely no sense whatsoever 🤣
@@fakesummer3942 If you're too slow it wouldn't no do you ever look words up in a real dictionary at a library?
@@wildsurvival4306 You might want to try again, that isn't even a proper sentence and I have no idea what you're even trying to say.
I know the difference between "conceded" and "conceited" though, they're 2 similar sounding words with very different meanings, and only one actually makes sense within the context of the sentence he was speaking.
Bath Sheba was not assuming she was bathing in private. She deliberately placed herself in David's sight. And technically David did not commit adultery (though at the time he probably thought he was). Uriah was a rabid homosexual who never consummated his marriage with Bath Sheba. Which is why she was desperate to tempt David, being left barren by her supposed husband, it was her only chance to have children by somebody.
Blasphemy. David was under grace you should have written the Sin of Satanically Sick and Soulish Saul, Slayer of Special Souls. David was Special
Aren’t we all under grace? Isn’t all that we do because of grace? Yet we all sin
He never existed.
