Don't believe the lie about regeneration. In absolutely no way does the Bible preach such a concept.
We're saved via accepting Christ, which we do via placing our faith in Christ and Him crucified.
R.C. Sproul was such a great teacher and Christian leader. He is sorely missed.
I'm just now learning of him he was fantastic 🙏
@@quentinwade6536 Amen!
Amen!
He was a deceiver, and that goes for all of Ligonier -- a demonic ministry.
What a teacher, He's missed dearly. Every Christian should listen to his series on "The Hollins of God"
Wish I could have heard this years ago.... I wish my daughter would listen to this and understand it..... The Lord God offers JOY not happiness.... The fruits of the Spirit are..... Love, Peace, Joy..... Longsuffering.... Jesus is the perfect example.... I have been a fool.... Build on the Rock and not sand.... Build on the Word of the Lord God
@MisterJonVox That's right! Let man tell you who God is! 😂😅
@andrewrivers you cannot come unto him. You're dead in sins and trespasses. Eph 2, 1-3 past tense proving regeneration precedes faith. 👍
@PandaCheeks why did you respond with nonsense. I was merely pointing out that RC is not an Evangelical charismatic self-determination salvationalist
Arminianist stillborn Christian. Becareful you might fall.
@MisterJonVox We are all fallen already, Princess Buttercup! 😂 Hence why we need Jesus... ;) and like I said don't let any man tell you who God is but only God the father The Holy Spirit and The Son! Man has no power,dominion or say over God!
@@andrewrivers You're insane.
It is interesting that this came up on my feed as our women’s group is studying Piper’s Desiring God where he advocates for “Christian hedonism.” Something didn’t sit right with me in Piper’s explanation of the term. It’s because he left off the “avoidance of pain” in his definition of hedonism. I really appreciate RC Sproul’s teachings. I’m grateful for his myriad of recordings now that he’s no longer with us.
keep honing those senses. Piper poisoners Jesus+hedonism for final justification instead of Jesus alone foundation is built on this strange doctrine (Hebrews 13:9). He positively quotes multiple catholics, mass affirmer CS Lewis, and other dangerous people who had departed in apostasy. If you do by chance read this, warn your group on Piper. He affirms Rick Warren to Beth Moore because he has a faulty foundation. One must believe on Jesus alone for salvation, for past, present, and future justification and not Piper's one must be a hedonist to go to heaven doctrine.
Love this excellent biblical teacher, Dr. R.C. Sproul. Thank you for sharing. 🙂
Thank you for this series. It covers so much that we don’t know, unless we went to Seminary!
So refreshing to hear someone else talk about how often we say I feel when we should be saying I think. As a college writing instructor, I am also constantly correcting my students and explaining to them the difference between think and feel.
Awesome video! Thank you!
Thank you Lord for dedicated servants like Dr. R.C. Sproul who makes seeking you that much more interesting. Rest In Peace Doctor Sproul.
Wow, this was excellent! So many great points argued so persuasively. A lot of food for thought here, I’m saving this to listen to again!
WOW. An RC Sproul teaching I haven't seen 😊Thank you Lord for another morsel of truth from a master communicator of God's Word ✝
Many thanks for posting. 💗💗💗
I am greatful for these lessons bieng online for free
RC is amazing,, Praise God for His truth coming to us , thankfully
We aren’t always taught as Christians that to follow Christ is going to be painful. You will still enjoy life but you will be asked to hate the world. There will be pain and suffering and self denial even though works don’t mean anything and contribute in no way to your salvation. The spirit will ask for sacrifice. There is only one thing we can do and that is pick up our cross and follow Jesus. I hope Jesus allows me the renewal of Spirit to empower me to walk away from the pursuit of feeling good at all costs and to move toward what is asked of me for his glory. Thank God for this ministry.
Well,thank God salvation comes from grace,not works!
@@PandaCheeks, Jesus taught doing good works
And we are 40 years on from this message, and a thousand times worse!
Hey, brothers and sisters, if you like this video, hit the like button! It tells You Tube it’s good to recommend to others! Thanks!
The charismatic movement seems to fit this meditation like a glove. Is it not what Luther described as enthusiasm? The vindication of a walk with God on the "anointed" feeling, and are not the vast majority of contemporary christian songs based to either bolster or even instill this feeling?
Rc sproul be spittin!
My grandmother used to always tell me everything that's good to you ain't good for you ❤
It has been said in these last days that Christ Jesus was the Bar-Setting Ultimate Hedonist
For He Always kept His Pleasure in and For His Father.. PERFECTLY
FOR THE JOY SET BEFORE HIM HE ENDUREDTHE CROSS DESPISING THE SHAME
10:32 when does he mentions USA?
Good question. A lot of these teachings from R.C., on RUclips, are shorter versions of the full episode, or so I've been told .........
"lf there's no God and no life beyond the grave, doesn't that mean that men will be allowed to do whatever they want?" - Fyodor Dostoevsky
Well, put simply, the teachings of practicality all modern churches. Truth is irrelevant. Being physically “blessed” is all that matters. In fact, the level of your blessings reveals how godly you actually are.
What year was this ?
I am wondering as well
Sproul was born in 1939 and he looks about 40ish here so I'd say this was the late 70s or early to mid-80s. You Light Up My Life by Debbie Boone was released in 1977 so right on the money...I'd say this was recorded in 1979. Helen Gurley Brown, editor of Cosmopolitan magazine, was big in the 70s and 80s too, so that also fits. I graduated high school in 1979 so this is the timeline of my youth. All these people he speaks of are very familiar to me.
December 2, 1985
@@marjieyoung9570 Sure that was the original date? I ask because he mentions Debbie Boone and says a couple of years ago in reference to her song. It came out in 1977, so a couple of years after would be 1979. Regardless, I thought it was late 70s to early to mid-80s and was pretty close. How did you find this date? Thanks.
@@jodyel That is the date they provide on their site online. You can find it if you search for the 12 part series 'Christian Worldview' in their store and see the details on it.
I view Hedonism and Utilitarianism in a similar light. Primitive systems that can inform us in times of ignorance, but won't provide satisfactory results in the long term.
Aw, man, what is wrong with RUclips these days? The volume is barely hearable. Sigh.
Perhaps it is your device? I can hear it A-okay.
I can also hear it well. 👍
Maybe. It's just weird that other YT vids (both Christian and non-Christian) sound fine. There's no rhyme or reason to it. Thanks.@@TheBookOwl
Thanks. Maybe my computer is dying. @@krystalgoin
@@Yesica1993 I notice the volume is considerably lower on Ligonier videos also. I usually have to listen with the volume turned all the way up and limiting other noises around. I think it's just the settings Ligonier has for their videos. It definitely makes me pay attention better. 😂 If you put on the closed captions it helps a lot.
Sproul gained a lot of weight and sported a big belly since this taping. Maybe he was abit of the hedonist himself!
Piper has this weird clearly bad doctrine that uses eros is above agape, and even says, "you do not go to heaven unless you are a christian hedonist." You'd think all his affirming Rick Warren/Beth Moore/Christine Caine/NT Wright, and others would be enough to warn people off him.
SIN IS A BETTER WORD PREACHER😮
