Greetings from a truck driver from Louisiana. These older sermons along with John Macarthur and many others like these have transformed this rough ,proud Cajun into a entirely new man. I thank God for His great kindness and mercy He bestows on this wretched sinner. It just amazes me.
Hey brother, thanks for sharing your testimony, it immediately touched my heart! Only God’s Holy Spirit can transform a man’s heart and open spiritual eyes. To me, this salvation miracle confirms the greatness of God, and His great love for us, to give His Son Jesus as the ransom for our eternal life. Keep the faith, and I’ll see you in Heaven…we will remember this conversation! LarryS
“He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.” - Isa 53:3
Oh so much I miss your sermon ! Thanks so much , even after you are gone you continue to bless us with your beautiful ways to expound the Lords message!
“For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.” 1 Corinthians 1
Greetings from Westwood Baptist Church in Nashville, TN! Thank you for sharing this. Praise God for sending Jesus Christ and for graciously revealing Jesus to whom He will.
1985- seems time passed quickly, to 2024! R.C. Sproul preaches Christ, Crucified, Risen and Ascended, leaving us the Gift of The Holy Spirit, to help and guide us! Amen! Always have loved listening to his Messages ! God gave him a loving , sincere gift of delivery in teaching His Word. He gave him good taste in clothing, as well!😊🧡. 🙏🦋🙏🦋🙏
24:00 when Christ said the words on this rock I will build my church he wasn't referring to Peter but on to himself. Christ is the rock not peter. This is one of the problems that the Catholic Church has turned into their heretical man exalting control fear based agendas. The rock that Christ was referring to was himself that is directly tied to the revelation of Christ's identity that God had given to Peter. The identity of Christ is the son of God. That is the revelation.
Love the 7 Chronicals of Narnia. Filled with symbolism. Fascinating. Who was Jesus? To the disciples, who do you say I am. Peter says, You are the Christ. Jesus the name. Christ not a name. Christ, Cristos, the Anointed One, Gifted the Power of God. Jesus avoided title Messiah. Jesus veiled Himself. My Father in Heaven has Blessed you Peter that you know I am Christ. Jesus explained, have to die to resolve you with God. Through me. ♥️✝️♥️ .
Did he call him rock or did he say on this rock, meaning the truth you just spoke, peter saying who Jesus was being the rock which the kingdom/ church was to be built on.
DID THIS PREACHER JUST REFER TO PETER AS THE ROCK INSTEAD OF YESHUA HAMASHIACH??? DID I HEAR HIM WRONG?? This RC Sprouls is a FOLLOWER of PETER whom he called the ROCK whilst Peter himself called JESUS the CHRIST as the "ROCK of OFFENCE"? Couldn't JESUS have also implied that PETER was to be called the ROCK of OFFENCE?? Wasn't JESUS / YAHSHYUA called the "ROCK of AGES"??? Doesn't that mean ..."THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE MIGHTY AND UNBREAKABLE ROCK AND THAT ROCK IS CHRIST YAHSHUA..." which is a PRONOUNCEMENT by PAUL in 1 Cor. 10:4, right???? Just HOW MANY individuals in the Bible (OLD & NEW TESTAMENTS) are to be called "THE ROCK"??? There are MORE than TWENTY VERSES in the BIBLE that AFFIRMED the Jewish MESSIAH as the "ROCK"! In the OT, the Creator Elohim YAHWEH is referred to as the ROCK???? There can be NO "ROCK but the Creator Elohim. Isn't YAHSHUA Elohim??? Isn't He part of the DIVINE TRINITY??? Can a mere man in Peter qualify to be called the "ROCK"??? Obviously "NAY!!". What then made RC Sproul eagerly referred to Peter the sanguine as the "ROCK" in the Book of Matthew?? He MUST be WRONG! And for that, I'd rather listen to pastor John MacArthur from now on. When a person DENIES YAHSHUA as the ONE and ONLY ROCK, such a person is DENYING the MESSIAHSHIP of YAHSHUA HaMashiach and transferred that to a mere FALLIBLE human being like PETER the Sanguine! There is ONLY ONE ROCK of SALVATION and that is YAHSHUA HAMASHIACH. Calling anyone else as the "ROCK" degrades or belittle the Title of "THE ROCK"!! IF JESUS had said: "YOU ARE PETER THE ROCK AND IN THIS ROCK, I SHALL BUILD MY CHURCH..." Now, that would have been so CONTRVERSIAL and had OPENED up a NEVER ENDING debate as to WHO exactly was referred to by the HOLY SPIRIT as the "ROCK of SALVATION" - Peter or JESUS. I'm not saying that RC Sproul is in HELL today; let the true ROCK of SALVATION deals with Mr. Sproul on JUDGEMENT DAY!! HalleluYAH
9 : 114 And the request of forgiveness of Abraham for his father was only because of a promise he had made to him. But when it became apparent to him [i.e., Abraham] that he [i.e., the father] was an enemy to Allāh, he disassociated himself from him. Indeed was Abraham compassionate and patient. 9 : 115 And Allāh would not let a people stray after He has guided them until He makes clear to them what they should avoid. Indeed, Allāh is Knowing of all things. 9 : 116 Indeed, to Allāh belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth; He gives life and causes death. And you have not besides Allāh any protector or any helper.
His memory is not accurate, they never enter Narnia the same way twice. And its not the same children in each book. Christ is a title, in English therefore its Christ Jesus not Jesus Christ.
Jesus is essential but not enough. The role of man, his contribution to salvation, is missing. If this were just the work of Christ, Man would enter Paradise in shame, as he would have done nothing to deserve it!. Otherwise, did God make a mistake when He create Man ?
Christ is All there is and we will enter Heaven humbly knowing we are far from the perfection of our Lord . All our works do is earn us crowns as a reward for our good deeds.
That's blasphemy,. We contribute nothing. And we deserve Hell. Heaven is not earned. If all Christ did was die on the cross, that would remove our guilt but it would not make us righteous. He lived a perfectly sinless life for us. He took our guilt and gives us his righteousness. Ephesians 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. “The most damnable and pernicious heresy that has ever plagued the mind of man was the idea that somehow he could make himself good enough to deserve to live with an all-holy God.“ - Martin Luther "You contribute nothing to your salvation except the sin that made it necessary." -- Jonathan Edwards “Thinking that I deserve heaven is a sure sign I have no understanding of the gospel.“ - Sinclair B. Ferguson "People who go to hell deserve to be there. People who go to heaven do not deserve to be there. The first is justice, the second is grace." -- Steven Lawson "Do you think that you deserve forgiveness? If you do, you are not a Christian." ― D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The whole point of the gospel in God not giving what we righteously deserve! Otherwise we would all be condemned! For all have sinned! "Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith." I will not enter heaven in shame, but the only boast one can have, is to boast in The Lord of their salvation. Your comment really worries me, deeply for you. Examine your doctrine, may it not lead to boasting in yourself.
Amazing-preacher with honorable dress BUT interestingly the people were dressed , in my opinion , in honorable attire ! So much honorable attire that sets the tone for honorable discussion . Having served Jesus for some 20 years I am continually amazed by the “ relaxed dress code “ in most churches . How would you dress if you met with a president or high positioned person ? Certainly we have lost reverence and dignity for the Christ of the Bible ! Certainly our relationship with God is a heart issue BUT how are we showing reverence and dignity to the world for the one who died for our sins . I challenge us to appear to the world reverent and dignified as an outward sign on out inward reverence !!

I agree with Christ (Anointed One) being a title. I say Christ Jesus or Jesus, the Christ.
Similarly, with Messiah, I believe.
