  • After Jesus and the Apostles, perhaps no one in the first thousand years of church history had such a formative influence on Christian thinking as Augustine. In this message, R.C. Sproul considers the theological and philosophical achievements of this intellectual giant.

      AMAZING!! Thank you so much for making the entire series available! I started watching this in 1998 and, unfortunately, was only able to watch about 7 episodes before I moved to a different state. I look forward to watching the entire series.

    Thank you to those posting these vids. Love R.C. and while he made it home, he left a big hole on earth. I watch John MacArthur and Steven Lawson age - and the tears appear - these men are such true Godly preachers - pray for just as strong preachers coming up.

    Avoiding skepticism and rising to certainty……..is a desire of the flesh.

      Nice strawman would be interesting if he didn't make it clear someone is right. You really missed the whole point. Two men, one says it's raining the other says it isn't someone's right. The whole thing was about sensory and rational perception not there isn't certainty and even in this he and Augustine aren't saying there's no certainty. You literally took a part of the conversation cut it to a sentence and heard what you want. This is so much more ironic then you even understand.

    It is an explanation which remains a formal belief of the mind. In other words, if I do not believe in God and his creation, we start again from the beginning, at the level of the sensory perception of reality which is incapable of perceiving things beyond the senses... This becomes a vicious form of understanding whatever that is ... One believes this ... The other believes that ...

    Wasn’t Augustine very much influenced by Plato in his hermeneutic? The Alexandrian school had an affect but arguably we derive amillenialism from a platonic root.

      Christianity is highly influenced by Greek philosophy overall.

      @@tookie36 Not true. Not real Christianity. But, if you consider the heresy that Christians in the church (such as Augustine via the influence of gnostics and Manichaeanism) have to some extent succeeded in making ancient greek philosophy part of Augustine-esque Christianity, yes you could conclude that.

      Then of course the scriptures are all Greek writings so of course there is some greek influence

    Shame. Guy introduces Gnosticism via his manichean ideas. Reject him and Calvin. Know God more truly.
