A Second Account (Acts 1:1-4) - A Sermon by R.C. Sproul

Luke is recognized by some as the greatest historian of the ancient world. As author of the book of Acts, he offers us tremendous insights into the ancient church. Yet Luke’s early account is far more than a history book. In this sermon, R.C. Sproul begins his series in Acts to consider the reliability of this New Testament book as well as its overarching themes.
This sermon was preached by R.C. Sproul at Saint Andrew’s Chapel in Sanford, FL. Hear more from his series in the book of Acts: • The Book of Acts: Serm...

Although he's no longer with us, Dr. Sproul is one of the finest most enthusiastic theologians I've ever heard.

Thank-you Ligonier for sharing yet another of Dr Sprouls messages. I never met him. But, to me, his voice is like that of a dear, trusted godly friend. You help me to continue to learn from him.

It has been very edifying for me to hear RC Sproul's messages in the book of Acts, it is sad that not all the chapters are posted here. Would it be possible to post all the chapters?

⁠@@ligonierTHANK YOU SO MUCH !! I’m starving for exegetical scripture and the history!

WHY ARE PEOPLE SO BLIND AND CANNOT SEE?
JESUS HIMSELF SAID SO MANY THINGS ABOUT HIS FATHER: HE SAID “IF I HONOUR MYSELF, MY HONOUR IS NOTHING: IT IS MY FATHER THAT HONOURETH ME; OF WHOM YE SAY, THAT HE IS YOUR GOD” (JOHN 8:54-55). JESUS CLEARLY STATES HE HAS A FATHER, YET PEOPLE GO AGAINST GOD'S WORDS THROUGH JESUS. THIS IS THE VERY REASON JESUS CAME INTO THE WORLD: SO THAT WE MAY KNOW AND UNITE WITH HIM AND THE FATHER. FOR WITHOUT JESUS, WE WOULD NEVER KNOW THE FATHER, AND WE WOULD ALL BE DOOMED TO HELL.

. Without the (Holy Spirit) being in a true believers heart , one can NEVER have salvation nor know the Father or Jesus... A heart that (is without) the Spiritually Living Holy Spirit (is not saved) nor is able to enter Heaven upon physical death... !!! ...
