This sermon was preached by R.C. Sproul at Saint Andrew's Chapel in Sanford, Fla. Hear more from his series in the gospel of Luke: th-cam.com/play/PL30acyfm60fV94ET7HEWa47qdUm3RnkDE.html
aye, Yessica; and it's likely we don't know the half of how much we have failed him -- being so darkened in our understanding as to not see just how much sin we commit all we can do is trust to the perfect life Christ lived on our behalf, believing that in His work on the Cross, He exchanged that perfect righteousness for our dire unfaithfulness... and in our little faith, believe our God when He says that His mercies to us are new every morning, not living despondently because of our failings, but joyfully in the knowledge that the Faithful One has redeemed all our wickedness for His purposes and glorifies Himself in showing such mercy to we wretched God bless you with the freedom of knowing _His_ work is what saves you, and an assurance of His grace and mercy for when you fall, as a dearly beloved servant of The Lord _and_ an adopted child of The Father.
It is written... For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again; but the wicked shall fall into mischief. There is therefore now, NO condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit. REST in the finished work of Christ. ☺️✝️
We must be like the Faithful servant whom patiently waited for The Lord's coming in the future.Come let us continue to be watchful like a night watchman.
“And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.” Romans 13
“Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.” Romans 13
There is neither evil or good, or sin in a calvinist shaped world view, just the "WILL" of a Sovereign God who does all for his glory, not mercy or love. If you doubt this, then just ask your self this: of the millions of people that die every day, what percentage, are already damned to hellfire. 1 percent of a million is 10,000. Let's just grant that, 10K people dying every day for the last 2,000 years (minimum) means 20,000,000 people never had a chance for salvation, now raise that to 10% of a million, is now 200,000,000 automatically are in hellfire. This is not the gospel of our Blessed Lord Jesus Christ.
@Captain Marvel MSc on the contrary. It is written... -All the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as NOTHING, and He doeth according to HIS will in the army of Heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and NONE can stay His hand or say unto Him, What doest thou,? -Therefore hath He mercy on whom HE will have mercy, and whom HE will HE hardeneth. Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed (meaning YOU) say to Him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? Hath not the Potter over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour and another unto dishonour? "But the natural man receiveth NOT the things of the Spirit of God; for they are foolishness unto him, neither can he know them because they are spiritually discerned. " Only a man, born-again by the Spirit of God can accept the things of God. Everyone else will stumble over Jesus, the Rock of Offence.
@@RockingChairRebel actually it is written unless you believe and are baptized you will not be saved. Do you believe this because if u don't there is an issue. The devil can quote scripture and just because u do doesn't mean ur right. Rc Sproul believed in double predestination which mean u could already be damned even in ur present state. Every one of course personally believes their saved

this was a great sermon, and a dire warning to all who merely profess to be Christ's but live unfaithfully toward him on a technical note, the Subtitles get very messed up in the last 5 minutes of the video for some reason
The last few minutes didn’t make sense. After he describes the fate of the 2nd servant (cut in two) Sproul says, “but wait, it gets worse!” The third and fourth servants receive “many” stripes and “few” stripes respectively. I don’t know about you, but I’d rather receive “many stripes” (which obviously means a temporary punishment) than get “cut in two”! I’m not sure why he would conclude that that could be worse. That’s not even looking at “few stripes”.
RC Sproul did not speak for the Word of God. The Word of God is Jesus Christ, and he needs not this man to speak for him. Btw he got the parable completely wrong, and skipped out 2 of the 4 servants. Why people give so much faith to these "men" that just read scripture, and then give their private interpretation on what they THINK the scripture is telling them so they can then tell you, (with out healing the sick, casting out demons, feeding the hungry, or perform miracles.) R.C. Sproul is a calvinist who believed in double predestination. Only the elect, (which we don't know, as it is predetermined, ultimately it's 50:50) will enter the kingdom of heaven. This takes out nearly every bible verse in the bible. The righteous and wicked servant in this parable are simply doing what they are pre-determined to do. There is neither evil or good, or sin in a calvinist shaped world view, just the "WILL" of a Sovereign God who does all for his glory, not mercy or love. If you doubt this, then just ask your self this: of the millions of people that die every day, what percentage, are already damned to hellfire. 1 percent of a million is 10,000.

@@gwendaallsworth5112 ya it's funny how calvinists are bord with THEE Word of God but are obsessed with a book. Not to mention slavery and war. Have fun.
@@gwendaallsworth5112 hey what do u, a muslim, a rabbi, and an athiest have in common, you all dont take John Ch 6 of the Holy Scriptures literally and deny the body blood soul and divinity of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist...Bravo!!!😀🤣😅

This was chilling. How I wish I could better live for Him! But I've been such an utter failure.
We all have. But we are forgiven by Jesus Christ our Lord.

God bless you with the freedom of knowing _His_ work is what saves you, and an assurance of His grace and mercy for when you fall, as a dearly beloved servant of The Lord _and_ an adopted child of The Father.
We serve the LORD OF CREATION who knows your heart start again as his faithful servant it is JESUS who justifies 1 John3:20
It is written...

God bless you for feeling that way. I feel the same but thanks to God we have hope through our lord jesus Christ.

A sober warning for every professing Christian.
TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL THINE HEART , AND LEAN NOT UNTO THINE OWN UNDERSTANDING . PROVERBS 3 : 5 KJV ❤
Amen, RC, amen.
Praise GOD for His Love and Mercy. 🙏

Great biblical sermon. Thank you. 😊
Wow...just WOW. R.C. hit a home run with this sermon. One of the best!!! ☺️✝️
