The Dignity of Man: Themes from Genesis with R.C. Sproul

Do all human beings have dignity and value? Or are these qualities we must earn-and therefore qualities we’re capable of losing? In this message, R.C. Sproul takes us to the opening chapters of the book of Genesis and the creation of human beings. Only by having a right understanding of human origins can we better understand every aspect of our lives. And even though sin distorts human dignity, sin cannot destroy the dignity belonging to men and women created in the image of God.

Hi, Sir. Pray that the Lord Jesus Christ save you from your sins. God bless you 🙂

Sir, Dr. Sproul went to be with the Lord, December 2017. Dr. Sproul would tell any one of us to repent of our sins (turn away from our sins) and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ (God’s only begotten son) for the Kingdom of God is at hand (Gods anointed Son has been given all authority on heaven and on earth). He has bound the strong man through His work of obedience unto death. And now sits at the right hand of the Father in Power, Majesty, and Authority.

[@reinab8168]

I will pray for you

[@suewalker8586]

I sense you love the Lord Jesus Christ and are hungering for truth, and to know the deep things of God. "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness for they shall be filled." "God is not slack concerning His promises, but is long-suffering to usward, not willing that any should perish, but that all may have eternal life." "May the God of hope fill you with all Joy and peace, as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the HOLY Spirit." In JESUS'S precious name..... Amen. Be STRONG IN THE LORD!!

God loves us because He created us

[@pnut5153]

True…however, he is not “happy” with us unless we believe on His only begotten Son, namely, The Lord Jesus Christ, because of His supreme obedience of the work of redemption.

Isaiah 1 18 like wool. 👍 restored to our original state. Pure as He is pure.

[@jessyjonas4988]

“ And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Genesis 1:26-28✝️

[@vaughnlonganecker986]

Amen

[@robmarshall956]

The good news is that when God redeems an individual, He begins to restore the original image of God, creating a “new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness” (Ephesians 4:24). That redemption is only available by God’s grace through faith in Jesus Christ as our Savior from the sin that separates us from God (Ephesians 2:8-9). Through Christ, we are made new creations in the likeness of God (2 Corinthians 5:17).

initiative라던가 might as well 등 유용한 표현, 한국말로 잘 해석도 안되는 표현들을 감사히 잘 배우고 있습니다. 혹시, arguably warranted 라는건 무슨 말일까요? 가끔씩 봐왔던 건데, 보증한다는 것이 논란의 여지가 있다는 것인가요? 글 맥락은 이렇습니다. If there really were a clear cause-and-effect relationship between what normal children see on TV and harmful actions, then limits on such expression might arguably be warranted. 선생님의 답변이 정말 궁금합니다. 딱히 부정어는 없는데 arguably가 붙어서 보증한다는 것이 바람직하지 않다는 걸로 들리는데요;;;;;

[@bluekangaroo46]

To be warranted means to have a reason for. Arguably means that something is less than certain but could be convincingly argued for. So "arguably warranted" means that it could be convincingly shown that something has a reason behind it.

[@alasdairwhyte6616]

it means they need god, so there is a god. bad logic.

Adam's rebellion was mirrored and resembled how GOD was like?

"The Dignity of Man:" A VERY interesting title kind Sir...Let's see: Isaiah 64:6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away. Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 1 John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. Ecclesiastes 7:20 For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not. Romans 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: Mark 10:18 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God. And consider this: One of Jesus' own "Disciples"; betrayed Him. Not to mention; that Peter denied Him 3 times; BEFORE the "Crock Crowed"! I don't really believe any of the above; were/are very "dignified"...and I put myself at the front of the rest. So St Paul...move OVER "brother in Jesus!"... 1 Timothy 1:15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. ...In any case kind Sir and Brethren, Please Pray OFTEN and Praise Jesus OFTEN; for He is the ONLY true "God Almighty"; there will ever have been. And may Jesus bless you and yours always. AMEN!

[@vishwasjawle5939]

Thanks Jesus Christ is our Frainds He will Help me cause He daied for me ,to save me

[@MrPatdeeee]

@@vishwasjawle5939 Jesus IS our God ("friend" is moot in this context); the only true Almighty God; there will ever be. And yes Jesus DID die (and go to hell in essence for eternally in 3 days); to pay the price for EVERY sinner who will have ever been. Because: if he had NOT done that loving endeavor: EVERY person, who will have ever lived; WILL go to hell on "Judgment Day". For NO person has ever been "Sinless". Praise Jesus for being the only true loving God; there will ever be.
