Thank you.
Their archives, including the excellent series, at Ligonier are deep and wide. So important for us in this post-truth age. His Truth is Marching On at and through Ligonier Ministries.
Wow! This is all very new to me. No Jew ever called God "Father." Now I need to go back and read the Gospels again and pay special attention to the times Jesus call God "Father." I certainly had no idea this form of address would be so shocking to those who heard Jesus speak. How is it that I could study God's Word for so long and miss these things?
Thank you again, RC. Thank you, Ligonier Ministries for continuing to publish Dr. Sproul's sermons and lectures. God continues to touch people's lives through Dr. Sproul's words.
Well the Jews did call God Father after Jesus pointed it out.
@@JoshuaMSOG7 - Citation, please.
@@rubiks6 John 8:41
But as I said, this was only said by the after Jesus pointed it out that his Father was God and that it wasn’t their Father.
@@JoshuaMSOG7 - Interesting. I'll have to research it a bit ... maybe look into the Greek. (I'm no Greek buff.)
Do you have any more citations? This seems like an interesting path to explore.
@@rubiks6 Well Exodus 4:23 The Lord tells Moises to compare the nation as his son and he is their Father.
There’s many more I believe if you try to look some up
praise the only true living LORD and GOD bless you all glory be to the HOLY TRINITY forever and ever amen 💖✝️✝️✝️
I am thankful to have met and received a prayer of blessing from Mr. Sproul. In this text he says nowhere does a jewish man address God as Father - but Isaiah sure seemed to,
Isaiah 63:16 -16 Doubtless thou art our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O Lord, art our father, our redeemer; thy name is from everlasting.
True! Good point
Vintage R.C. Message is never too old!!!
One of the most important lessons for Christians. Believers (can only be chosen by God) are adopted by God into His family 🙂 God loved us before the creation of the heavens and the earth 🌎. He chose us to be His own before man was created. The names of the chosen were written in the book of life from the beginning.
Please post the next one ASAP. I really enjoyed and learned a lot from that sermon. REALLY GOOD!!!
Please continue to upload sermons and teachings from R.C. Sproul. Glory be to the Most High!

What a great teacher... God bless Dr. Sproul 🙏🏼
I'm Methodist historically. Come as you are. We say the Apostle's Creed regularly. I'm intrigued by R. C.'s delving into the nooks and crannies of which I'm just presently aware. In progress. Open to learning.
Revelation 22:12-14
“And see, I am coming speedily, and My reward is with Me, to give to each according to his work.
I am the ‘Aleph’ and the ‘Taw’, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last.
Blessed are those doing His commands, so that the authority shall be theirs unto the tree of life, and to enter through the gates into the city.”
How can the audience not respond to his questions? Amazing how much info he provides in such a short time. Love the historical context. Never heard of henotheism, or some of the beliefs of the Gnostics. Glad for creeds.
Thanks for all of your faithful work!
Our family thanks Ligonier's Ministry for all you do to help keep us on the right path!
May God continue to bless you all!
Thanks for sharing ☺️
"Lord ( ADONAi- the SOVERIGN Lord)

Im very impressed with this entire group of men. Im a Catholic as if that statement could be in conflict with appreciating good thinking, good hearts and wisdom. Bless us all. Thanks be to God.
Time to become reformed!! Welcome!
No thank you etc
@@CAVEDATA Is there something you are getting from RC’s teaching that you don’t hear in the Catholic Church?
so lovely to see such a vintage video of Sir Sproul! Looking very handsome!
Thank you very much for posting such a wonderful teaching session. I really appreciate you always show closed captions. English is my second language and some words that Dr. Sproul uses are not familiar to me, so the CC is a tremendous help.
I miss RC.

God created the heavens and the earth through His Son Jesus., the Word. John 1:2-3. God the Father had the plan of creation and brought it about by His Son and the Holy Spirit. 📖📖✝️🙏❤️
The farther is the divine conscience of Jesus christ the word that was there in the beginning, Jesus Christ is the infinite spirit, breath, bread, tree, eternal life, and the body, lamb, blood of God our lord and savior 🙏❤
Please do further study of the doctrine of the Trinity. Your formulation as stated here is dangerously inaccurate.
@@PaDutchRunner Jesus christ reconciled man's conscience to the farther, ( who is one with Jesus christ) Jesus christ is the wisdom and the power of God, Question is the farther and Jesus Christ one?

The Bible clearly says that the Son of God....made all things ...and without him nothing... not one thing was made. So do I follow the apostles creed or the Bible?
@@bosse641 Do you reject the writings of the Apostle Paul?
@@bosse641 It is good to hear you do not reject the Apostle Paul.
1 Corinthians 8: 4-6 Paul takes the Jewish statement of faith called the Shema, and applies it to Jesus. The Shema states, " Hear, O Israel! The LORD is our God. The LORD is one!" In 55 AD, Paul says , " yet for us there is but one God.....and one Lord, Jesus Christ." Every Orthodox Jewish person is supposed to recite the Shema daily. This is the theme verse for Judaism which held to monotheism. By Paul including Jesus within the Divine Identity of God as expressed in the Shema, he is saying Jesus is God.
@@bosse641 You don't understand the Apostle Paul.......which means you deny what he wrote.
In Philippians 2: 6-11, Paul records an early Christian hymn which pre-dates Paul. Paul wrote Philippians around AD 60, but the hymn dates earlier than AD 60. This passage says Jesus existed in the form of God or was God. When the passage speaks of Jesus being " made" in the likeness of men, it is not talking about Jesus coming into existence by creation, but taking on human flesh. In other words, the hymn is saying Jesus pre-existed in heaven and He was " made" or " took on" human flesh.
John, you are clueless about what the Apostle Paul wrote. Do you know the emperors considered themselves gods? There were called " Lord." The early Christians refused to call Caesar "Lord." They declared " Jesus is Lord"......meaning Jesus Christ is God.
@@bosse641 Jesus was begotten of the Holy Spirit not created. Mormons believe that like Satan, Jesus was a created being and that they were "spirit brothers." Is that what you meant by saying Jesus was created? Scripture does not support that.
Is there a study which uses the Nicene Creed's statement, I believe in one God the Father Almighty? I have read one theologian who reckons the term there is used of the Holy Trinity as a whole being Father to us, and so not limiting the one God to the Person of the Father. However, many modern Eastern Orthodox apologists argue that only the first Person, the Father, is the one God, and the Son and Spirit are not included in that designation. It seems to be making the Son and Spirit somehow not included in the confession of one God, and anti-Trinitarians use this to argue against the full divinity of the Son and the Holy Ghost (although of course they are called Lord in the creed, which also confesses the Son is of one substance with the Father). In short, are there grounds for saying that the first line of the Nicene Creed designates the Holy Trinity as the Father, before going on to use the term Father as it concerns the internal relations of the Godhead of three Persons?
I wonder how he would dealt with the point that the Bible teaches that we are all descended from the same original couple, Adam and Eve and thus in that sense, we are all related, all brothers ?
"God the Father"
God is also the Son and the Holy Spirit. And God's name IS Jesus in English. But in Hebrew it is "Yeshua". And that name is the 2nd Covenant's name. Because the Isaelites; dribbled down from 12 Tribes to one Tribe. And...
Because they had Blasphemed the 1st name "YHWH", for 2,000 yrs. And Jesus destroyed the 1st Covenant and it's name.
Now, that one Tribe is..."Judah"; where the Bablyonians; in 'circa 605 BC' short-cutted it to be "Jud's". And they used it like Americans used the "N" word becaue they hated them. Then it became "Jews" over time.
The same way the "Negroids" changed their name to "Blacks" in America. And now, "African Americans".
So Jesus is the name of the only true God. And He is "Omnipotent, Omniscience and Omnipresent". And...
He was "manifested" into a "fleshly"being on this eart. Thus there was NO conception or real birth*. So the phrase: "Emaculate Conception: is a satan-led, Godless to cause the "RCC" to LIE!
1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh (Jesus), justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
and...
John 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
Yet to this day; MOST Christians believes, and espouses, that The Father is God; and Jesus is ONLY the Son. So they Pray ONLY to the Father instead of to Jesus who IS God. May Jesus have mercy for that Blaspheming "Abominable Sin"...
...In any case kind Sir, Please Pray OFTEN and Praise Jesus OFTEN; for He is the ONLY true "God Almighty"; there will ever have been. And may Jesus bless you and yours always. AMEN!
* There can be NO conception; without both "Seed" from the male; and a "Fertelize" from the female. And this is why Mary HAD to be a virgin. Because: IF she had a normal conception; Jesus would have had "Sinful genes" of the Fathers (and mothers); to the 3rd and 4th generations!
Exodus 34:7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generations.
I miss chalkboards
Everything that came after Yehoshua the teacher of what is called the Matthew gospel is of the false christ created after the gospel, after the good news preached in the gospel, that christ is false, a deception its name jesus and its cross never happened except in the man of sins lying epistles, the writings of Paul of tarsus and the rest of the ones who come in the name if jesus and not in the name of God alone as all true lost sheep will. We serve God alone not any christ!
I know God, I walk in covenant with God and I Love God. I fear God as well and that is the beginning of Love because until you fear disobeying God and causing God to look upon you in shame so you feel horrible then you can not love Him. I started this walk when I was 32, to look for God. I started to actually begin to find God when I was 39 and sealed myself to God as the gospel tells us to, those of us who listen to the gospel teacher and not the ones who came after him, know to take up the commandments of God and to seek out our roots back to Abraham and to Moses and Yehoshua and the prophets so we become firm in knowledge of what GOD ALONE asked of us. It took me several years of fighting sin and the devil by obeying God. I fought the sin out of me with God's help, by his instructions in the written word. It is a very narrow road and as the mattan/Matthew gospel says very few will find it. We have to fight Satan and the whole world that serves him in sin in order to get out and the one who will help is God alone because we can't trust anyone else. I am with God, God provides for myself and my family and yes there is absolutely evidence BUT not until you absolutely come clean, in thought, word and deed, the absolute opposite of all the lying religions. The gospel was sent down to free us from sin by sending us to our teacher and if you reject it then you are freed from God into sin perpetually and to death spiritually from God which as I can now see is absolutely hell on earth, your light you pretend to have is absolutely darkness caused by your unwillingness to even try to obey God. I speak to 99% of the population. If you can't put everyone first after God and stop yourself from all sin THEN YOUR NOT WORTHY AND YOU ARE ALREADY FINISHED BEFORE YOU EVEN STARTED.
So come out of all sun, take up the commandments and begin your battle, call to GOD ALONE, LEARN YOUR ROOTS, BE GOD'S PEOPLE. FIGHT SATAN WHO IS THE SINNERS INNER VOICE, THE CONSCIENCE THAT LEADS YOU TO HURT YOU, that's not you, it's Satan the deceiver. If you come to God and pass the trials cleansing yourself by obedience then GOD WILL BECOME YOUR CONSCIENCE AND YOU WILL LOVE GOD AND HATE SIN, SATAN WILL FLEE FROM YOU.
SO there it is.
Peace, the ball in in your court
Be wary of this world, it is the valley of death, you need God's light and God doesn't dwell with sin or sinners. Not until they begin the journey to stop sin.
..well the Father as he is known in the trinity did not create the heaven and earth.. ..JESUS created the heaven and earth.........this man doesn't know that how can he be a teacher..
The James Webb Telescope has collected imagery peeling back to the beginnings of our very existence. Question is... why would they be waiting until June to do it?
@@bosse641 you are in error.. ..ALL things were made by Jesus and for Jesus and by Jesus do ALL things consist.. ..Jesus is the Father..
@@bosse641 There definitely is Truth in what you say. I believe we are going over the precipice. THIS Generation is FINALLY knocking down all barriers of the past. I believe there is a symbiotic relationship now at hand between God and Scientific Discovery. Jesus is right there in the middle WITH US as He always will be.
@@bosse641 ..God emptied himself and became flesh.. .. read John 14 slowly and believe.. ..and as Paul said without controversy great is the mystery of godliness that God manifest in the Flesh.. ..God is not three different people.. God came as a servant and will return as the King.. ..God came as the lamb and will return as the lion.. ..God came as the son and will return as the father.. ..JESUS IS MY FATHER AND I AM HIS SON AND WE ARE ONE..
@@bosse641 ..you are correct when you say God is not three people.. ..he is one person.. ..and his name is Jesus.. ..if you would like to have a discussion I would be down..
@13:00 - At the end of 2022, I think it's somewhere closer to 80% of Americans believe in God. Now the God of the Bible? Idk. But from 99% to 95% to 80%.... yikes.
Had my father, heavenly or otherwise, been responsible for the murder of over 25 million people, the condoning of slavery, infanticide, the lowering of women to the level of livestock, massive theft, and multiple other evil things, I'm sure I would get as far away from him as possible. Further, I would never tolerate someone being tortured to death for my wrongdoings. That is repugnant.
He has put to death all trillions of people who ever lived. He is far more just than you narcissist weasel.
The utube judge of godd hahahahahahahhaba
Create yourself now! Hahahaha
Brainwashed millennial zoomer zombie
@iacoponefurio1915 Not trillions, oh wise and bearded math wizard. I refer only to those needlessly murdered in your infantile storybook. Further, any judgment by a sane person would surely find your imaginary buddy guilty of innumerable crimes against those he claims to love. You worship ancient ignorance without studying the real facts.
Without the shedding of blood there is no remission for sin. Our blood has been tainted by sin. God demands a pure sacrifice. That's why man is disqualified from being his own sacrifice for sin. He needs a Savior, Jesus Christ for his sacrifice.
