R.C. Sproul: Witnesses of the Resurrection - The Apostolic Message

R.C. Sproul explains the centrality of the resurrection to the apostolic Gospel proclamation in the book of Acts and in the Epistles. We often talk about why Jesus died, but why was it also necessary that He be raised? This lecture explains why it is not only the doctrine of Christ's resurrection that is central, but the doctrine of the general resurrection as well.

[@pandoranazo7746]

I never met such a teacher of the Word before, yhoo! Thank you Oh Lord,our God.

[@ericday4505]

Heart breaking story RC, I am sure you are with your mom, God. bless you, doctor Sproul, I am still learning from you.

[@dianaheaphy8294]

Dr. Sproul just got better and better with each passing year! This is an amazing and persuasive sermon!

[@loveofreedom777]

One of THE best sermons given by RC Sproul I have ever heard! Can't wait to see my brother in Heaven at the Lamb's Table . . .

Hi

[@dixiedixon2210]

Matt 5:5 Jesus said the “Meek will inherit the earth”. Sounds nice. Perhaps we will see him there:)

[@oliviayoung5393]

Glorious! Isn't R.C. Sproul with the Lord already? Praise God for this message. He knew and was sure of where he was going--and he is there now in his new address. Location changed from earth to heaven! Hope to meet him there. I really loved his messages.

[@simonbenson8740]

Hard to find a better explanation of the significance of Christ’s resurrection not just for our salvation, but for preaching, teaching and evangelism. ‘Most pitiable’ is a badge I’m privileged to wear for Christ. “RC” was a master communicator of the Gospel.

[@kofi7110]

You couldn't have put it better, may the Lord Sproul the world ooh how I pray for such anointing to do his work.

[@tamaramalone1320]

Mr. Sproul an exceedingly great man of God.

Thank you Jesus Christ my LORD

[@LR-yu3mx]

[@jeanmilhollin5176]

What a sermon Praise God

[@mannepallemohanrao6979]

It's such a tremendous teaching a mighty GOD!

[@nancygomez1072]

❤❤❤❤❤😂 Thank you brother Sproul. I pray Jesus helps me to "get it", meanwhile, I just pray for my faith to be strengthened.

[@Frampa]

RC you know now more than we. You finished successfully the race of faith and surely rest in Christ await your own resurrection.

[@Mergețipejoscaesanatos]

It's good to know, America had, and still has GREAT MINDS for GOD

[@jasonpadula4916]

I lived the vast majority of my life without knowledge of the resurrection. It was misery with no hope. By the grace of God he pulled me out of the mire I had built for myself and gave me the greatest hope ever known to man.

[@kenglee693]

His confidence is not in vain indeed Jesus Christ is still here and one day He is going to show the world

[@billywymarra682]

Brother R.C's sermons always get us to think through the things of God but always end with the simple message of Christ and Him crucified.Amen !

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

[@Psalm146-2]

Amazing how well he is able to articulate truths of the Gospel. Born February 13, 1939, died December 14, 2017; Died when he was 78 years, 10 months…. “because of difficulty breathing, the result of an apparent infection, an “exacerbation of his emphysema due to the flu.” After a twelve day period of intermittent fever, and sedation and breathing assisted by ventilator, with effort given to restore his respiratory function, RC then changed address.” Was saved when he was 18 years, 7 months

[@Terese-wp4ds]

COVID-19 came about two to three years later, with plenty of ventilators, which are/were catalysts in many many deaths...more like murder. I feel in my spirit he was murdered with that ventilator. Just my opinion. What are your thoughts?

[@davidjeroboam1283]

Christ death and the undisputed Fact of the resurrection, is what separates Christianity from all the worlds man made false religions

[@brtmont]

PTL for our LORDS RESURRECTION.

[@tosonmaldebungir1618]

The truth in life from death in living the teachings of Christ is one proof of ressurection from the dead. Paul's writing in Galatians 5 on the works of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit explains as well a resurrection of one coming from the dead.

[@kiyasuihito]

Wow, I never realized that Paul used proof by contradiction in this passage.

@rudyfisherauthor7821 would u be so kind as to give me a timestamp to ur comment please?

According to the Scriptures that cannot be broken

[@honawikeepa5813]

Great apologetic. Kia ora from Aotearoa NZ.

[@judyplummer5004]

Not only is the anscient belief in an afterlife because there is only it’s your soul, but they all speak of a great flood. This is true. The flood happened.

[@judylloyd7901]

According to the scriptures, the bodies of believers are raised at the catching up to heaven of the church (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18), and the bodies of the wicked dead are raised at the end of the age (Revelation 20:11-15) to be judged by God. So, the resurrection isn't spiritual but physical, according to the Word of God. 😃😃

[@camilomora28]

Yo sigo el ministerio en español, quería pedirles el favor si lo pueden traducir ya que sigo las prédicas del Dr Sproul muy de cerca, gracias.

[@achingzeemeek2768]

He finally changed his address...

[@vladv.8819]

I agree... he surely did.

[@fritzdoerring9058]

What about the 2 visible wittnesses left dead and visible in the street, who then after 3 days rose alive!

[@joshuatheo1419]

Faulty hermeneutics.

[@judylloyd7901]

What about the two witnesses? They are on earth during the great tribulation, when the church is already raptured and gone to heaven. (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18) Jesus is God, and and He said that He had the power to lay His life down and to take it up again. (John 10:18) Other people who are raised from the dead are raised by the power and the will of God. There were a few in the Old Testament, and 3 mentioned in the New Testament. The scriptures make it clear that without Jesus' rising from the dead there would be no resurrection for anyone.

Humanist : "Your origin is meaningless and nothingness, and you are rapidly moving toward the nothingness of non-being so the two poles of your existence which are birth and death are simply an isolation of nothingness and nothingness" Now That's a depressing outlook on life 😂
