Thank you, Lord , for technology that put on RC's road. Although I'm not from America, I learned só much in a time of great difficulties , even after his death. His messages mean só much to me, even my daughter repented. Although he is not here anymore, he is in heaven. We are só in need of more preachers like him. ❤❤
It was a blessing to hear a real sermon. Most of what we hear lacks theology and is full of motivational speaking and emotionalism. This was refreshing!
That I would have heard this in college when my introduction to philosophy class was trying to convince me there is no god... every college student should hear this. I have been blessed with this message. To God in heaven be the glory in Jesus precious name Amen
@@WasLostButNowAmFound ~ Yes! l always think about Sproul when l hear some of the mixed up things Jordan Peterson says, and wish he would listen to RC! Peterson knows the bible well, but looks at it through the lens of philosophy when he should be doing the opposite. Thats what Sproul does. GLORY to Jesus!!! :D
A sermon that almost 5 years after being preached is bringing a lifelong Christian to tears over the thought of not striving to enter by the narrow gate Thank you LORD for your faithfulness to me and your children by working you glory and truth through men like RC Sproul Raise up a new generation of preachers who will be faithful to your word For it is the power of your word which brings nations to its knees in worship and submission to your rule
I absolutely love listening to RC. I only wish that I had had the opportunity to meet him before his passing. I learn so much from him. Lord thank you for RC.
I did meet him over 25 years ago on a Bible study cruise sponsored by Dr James Kennedy. Dr Kennedy died at the time and Dr Sproul took over. I remember him speaking on the reasoning of infant baptism. I had no idea how God would use him.
I have just finished listening Dr R.C. Sproul's message and it moved my whole being not to deceive ourselves but rather to strive ourselves to be a doer not a hearer only for God's kingdom because his grace and mercy is sufficient for me.
We need more men who fearlessly preach the whole Word of God, like RC. He is greatly missed! He had such a quick wit! He showed us that Christians can have fun too!💕
Bless his heart. I can tell his knees are hurting him in this video. Think of the time pastor Sproul spent on his knees but just think now his knees are perfect now . Thank you God for giving us R. C. Sproul.
Those moments at 27:40 & 28:40 gets me every time! R C has such a way of presenting and acting out his message that one not only appreciates the candor and wit, but also gets a sober dose of the truth!
Thanks to the Holy Spirit reaching me through Francis Chan and R.C., I have turned back to the Lord from my sins and I am rededicating my life, my soul, my eternity to HIM. I repent, and turn away from all this evil. For the first time in my life I'm completely serious about this.
That's wonderful! Some recommendations for you, if you haven't already watched, the sermons of Alistair Begg, John McCarthur, Paul Washer, Jon Courson, and the bible study videos of Les Feldick. "The BEAT" is a channel by Allen Parr, a lay leader, that has some solid teachings too. Also, download "The Chosen" app and you can watch an amazing series about Jesus' ministry and his travels with the disciples. It's great to feel the Holy Spirit at work, but we must be careful to not to chase after those feelings and seek moreso the things of the kingdom; it is all about Jesus and The Gospel. Being deeply rooted in truth will keep you grounded in your faith in Christ. Grace and peace to you Brother
@@ShaunaCheungBoSaanWOGO I also like the expository (verse-by-verse style) teaching of Chuck Smith and coincidentally, Chuck Missler. I like the real in-depth style of teaching 😎
Those few minutes around 27:40 & 28:40 need to be shown on every Christian website and quite frankly, on all the prominent secular sites as well! It grieves my heart that so many churches gloss over the narrow gate, I could not even imagine anyone hearing those words," I never knew yo" from The Lord Jesus Christ! The most horrifying, scariest, most frightening words anyone could ever hear! This scripture should be one of the foundational scrptures to contemplate.
The BEST, Yahkins??? So I take it you've heard all the Bible teachers in the world in the past few decades in all languages before coming to that objective conclusion?
Please listen to Zac poonen on TH-cam and google Christian fellowship centre Bangalore for free Holy Bible study and free Holy Bible messages. You can download free CFC app from the app store.

@@masterprophet8378 In stating that RC was the best in decades, I doubt it was an objective conclusion, but rather a statement of appreciation for the teaching of RC. Which so many people share 😃
Absolute brilliance! I've been a born again Christian for forty-one years, and am still having my eyes opened to the magnificence of God through Dr. Sproul. If it's possible to earn our eternal rest, then Dr. Sproul has certainly earned his.
Reformed, in know way did Paul even slightly imply that self-examination entails wrestling with doubt. Doubt is always frowned upon by Jesus and His disciples. JESUS: "O ye of little faith, wherefore didst thou DOUBT?" (Matthew 14:31). PAUL: "And he that DOUBTETH IS DAMNED if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin" (Romans 14:23). Have the presence of mind to exalt God's Word over the cult of personality, my brother.
I think there is a distinction between “ doubting “ what God has promised ( salvation ) and whether He is capable of doing it (He is ) and whether or not as individuals we truly believe unto salvation and whether or not we have deceived ourselves into believing we believe . At the last supper , when Jesus said one of you will betray me , do you not think each of them questioned themselves internally if it was themselves who would betray Jesus ? Judas didn’t he was already planning betrayal. The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
Jesus is the author and finisher of my faith and He said that He's going to prepare a place for me so that I may be with Him in paradise one day. I trust the words of Jesus. Amen!
You have to listen to more of R.C.'s sermons to get the full measure of his Biblical teaching. The narrow way is surely faith in Christ alone (apart from ANYTHING else). That will always be the narrow way and the numbers who find it will be few (though "few" could be a large number from a human perspective - Revelation shows us a great throng around the throne). Faith in Christ alone is stirred up, confirmed and strengthened within us by the Holy Spirit as we hear the Word of Christ proclaimed. (Why faith comes to one person who hears the message while not to another who hears the same message is the mystery of election.) But along with the gift of faith in Christ alone comes the gift of assurance so that one does not always have to be questioning their salvation, simply accepting it with gratitude and wonder and utter humility. The question you need to ask yourself as you put your head on the pillow is this: "Am I trusting in Christ alone for my salvation?" If you can answer yes, then you can be at rest and sleep peacefully.
I don't think election is a mystry. To the elect themselves. It may be one to the lost. but not to the elect when walking in the spirit. When Christ says few. I will not question his math.
Natalie, that's because God doesn't "take" the true believers as we oftentimes assume that He does. It is disease, brought on by improper diet, that takes many believers like our precious brother, Dr. Sproul, in an untimely fashion. If only we realized the enormity of culinary suicide.
@@natalieurrely8253 Sproul was 78, not 38 at his death. He had diabetes and other health problems, not unusual to pass away at that age with those complications. Blaming God is kind of an odd thing to do here. He placed his faith in Christ, so a good death, that actually had its sting removed.

How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news , who proclaim peace and bring good tidings , who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion “Your God Reigns! “Isaiah 52:7 I’m so greatful to God for men like R.C that love God with all there heart,mind,soul and strength, and love thy neighbors to share the Gospel of Christ, that is the true Love of God and I’m sure he is together with Christ and he’s reward is great ...it’s good to preach the the Natural Man cannot accept the things of the spirit of God,for they are foolishness to him, and cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.1 Corinthians 2:14 we are to pray and flee to the foot of the cross .
Love him! What a blessing! Wish I would've discovered him sooner, but God knows the right time for everything, couldn't have happened at a better time. God is good, all the time.
I have heard that the scriptures can be used to comfort the afflicted and to afflict the comforted. Never was a truer statement made. I have let atheists and humanists alter my thinking over the years. Compared to the word of God - paying heed to their message is like taking advice from a dung beetle.
Can you imagine RC preaching this in a contemporary American evangelical church? There would be no weeping or gnashing of teeth but rather shouts of "crucify him!"
What a beautiful sermon full of truth. I love how RC always ties in history science philosophy etc into his messages and still keeps it easy to understand. He was a brilliant man who is deeply missed. God bless
I'm an Anglican, and I got into a discussion with somebody in the comment section of a video from the Prayer Book Society that featured a woman dressed as a clergyman, demonstrating the reading of Evensong. The other user mentioned an erroneous account of early church history, that the Church of England's canons allow for priestesses, and that infighting in the church was the reason that so many pews are empty. Contd...
I pointed out that there is no evidence for women leading congregations in the early church, that Canon Law can't override the Divinely inspired and inerrant Word of God, and that the pews are empty because the church is preaching an empty, counterfeit gospel. God won't impose himself where he's not welcome. The other user also claimed that the church 'evolves'. I agreed with him that that is certainly the case. Although I might say 'fall into error' instead of 'evolve'. Contd...
What a powerful theologian and Christian Philosopher or thinker was Dr. RC Sproul Dos cosas llenan siempre de estupor mi alma, el cielo estrellado sobre mi , y la ley moral dentro de mi. “Two things fill the mind with ever new and increasing admiration and awe, the more often and steadily we reflect upon them: the starry heavens above me and the moral law within me. Emmanuel Kant
Thank you for posting, from what I have learn from him, his love for the Word of God and nothing better than to exalt our Heavenly Father and the Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost. The Spirit of God John 4:24.
I only hope that as we listen to him teach and preach regardless of the body''s limitations, that each of us remember the scripture, I can do all things through Christ Jesus who strength me.
Thank you Ligonier Ministries, I have learnt much from Dr RC Sproul's sermons on your web page and those posted on youtube. I thank my Lord Jesus Christ for Dr RC Sproul's exposition of the Bible (no doubt, through the enablement of the beloved Holy Spirit). Dr RC Sproul has gone into the presence of the Lord Jesus, since 2017 and I believe he is most blessed that he will ever be. Believer-in-Christ, Malaysia
Probably the most powerful word I've heard from our brother, well now his fleeting fear from a mirror is all forgotten, now he beholds his Saviour face to face.
Love involves giving, even when you are older and ill. RC Sproul gave of himself in his latter years, with severe health issues. In imitation of our Lord. I never met him, but our family has always benefited from his teaching of the word of God.It was brave and a man of "narrow gate". Imitate those who walk according to this pattern.
l remember hearing this about a year ago, and l got so frightened! For the last few years l've agonized over the state of my soul. l think its a good thing. _GLORY_ to The KING of kings, and LORD of lords! :D
One serious danger of liberal theology is its belief that "social structures" are responsible for nearly all the sin and problems of the world, while regarding "personal" sin as inconsequential. This keeps individuals from seeing their own sinfulness and need for faith in Christ.
@Lucas de Souza Gouveia That is not relevant. The sinner is a flawed mortal and sinned in a span of time, the due punishment cannot be for unlimited duration. Your position is a denial of logic.
One of God's biggest challenge is that we never see a direct connection from our sin to consequence. The believer strives to see this connection and the unbeliever does not.
I miss RC. He was a pillar and defender of the faith. I thank God that he lived and on the Last Day he will have a glorious reception into Jesus's Kingdom.
On the level of the sermon 'Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God' by Charles Spurgeon. The Truth is so powerful and it is the power which sets us free.
In a world of word of faith preachers with $50 million Gulfstream jets, $10 million homes, and incorrect and/or diluted theology, Mr. Sproul, with his deep understanding of theology and philosophy is so refreshing. Who is out there now carrying on his legacy and teaching style?
Thank you, Lord , for technology that put on RC's road. Although I'm not from America, I learned só much in a time of great difficulties , even after his death. His messages mean só much to me, even my daughter repented. Although he is not here anymore, he is in heaven. We are só in need of more preachers like him. ❤❤

l remember hearing this about a year ago, and l got so frightened! For the last few years l've agonized over the state of my soul. l think its a good thing. _GLORY_ to The KING of kings, and LORD of lords! :D
It is encouraging that thousands of people gave this a thumbs up.
One serious danger of liberal theology is its belief that "social structures" are responsible for nearly all the sin and problems of the world, while regarding "personal" sin as inconsequential. This keeps individuals from seeing their own sinfulness and need for faith in Christ.
Kevin,Well stated. You have put into words what I have thought for years. Thank you.
This dear man soldiered on to spread his message of Jesus Christ even during his progressively ailing condition.
Great comfort from His sermons.
Great message. Thank God for R.C. Sproul.
A sermon for the thinking Christian.
Indeed, Bucko
Real Christian thinking!
You mean for the Christian who thinks they are thinking.
Eternal burning torture is the just reward for the mortal guilty of temporal sins ?
Eternity is timeless, time means nothing when we die.
@Lucas de Souza Gouveia That is not relevant.
The sinner is a flawed mortal and sinned in a span of time, the due punishment cannot be for unlimited duration.
Your position is a denial of logic.
Excellent. Thank you.
I'm glad I'll get to meet RC one day
Another great sermon from a great man. Kant's influence cannot be ignored.
What a theologian with vast assiduity to the subject. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Amen God bless you pastor and your family and thank,
Heavenly father Amem and God bless all the pastors in the name of Jesus Christ heavenly father Amem
One of the best from one of the best!
One of God's biggest challenge is that we never see a direct connection from our sin to consequence. The believer strives to see this connection and the unbeliever does not.
This was refreshing.
Thank God for this message.
What a great preacher!
You can’t but love him if you are an ardent listener.
He is sure having a great time in heaven.
To R. C 🍺
It is rare to hear a preacher to admit they have had doubts and fears about their salvation. Most preachers seem to claim they have never doubted.
One of my favorites. Can't wait to me you R.C. soon but not yet.
I miss RC. He was a pillar and defender of the faith. I thank God that he lived and on the Last Day he will have a glorious reception into Jesus's Kingdom.
"If I do end up in hell, I will be a weeper, not a gnasher." Amen RC! So would I, brother. Most definitely, so would I.
One of the most talented contemporary spiritual leaders of today. Rushdooney (sp.?)! Is his contemporary equal.
Thank you.
On the level of the sermon 'Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God' by Charles Spurgeon. The Truth is so powerful and it is the power which sets us free.
'Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God,' is by Jonathan Edwards.
What amazes me is that the thief on the cross was promised going with Jesus through the narrow way! What grace! What love!
We miss RC!
That ending though...so unexpected and so personal.
In a world of word of faith preachers with $50 million Gulfstream jets, $10 million homes, and incorrect and/or diluted theology, Mr. Sproul, with his deep understanding of theology and philosophy is so refreshing. Who is out there now carrying on his legacy and teaching style?
Rubber meeting the road...
The narrow ....
Waking up.
Thank you
