R.C. Sproul: Have You Lost Your Mind?

[@glassworks4850]

Today marks RC's 4th year in Heaven. May God bless His beloved Church by sending us faithful preachers and teachers who will not bow the knee to the world. Who will encourage us to stand and fight the good fight of faith. Let us all glorify God in the life of our departed brother R.C. Sproul. May God bless us all

[@patrickc3419]

This sermon title is more relevant than ever in 2024.

[@reynaldodavid2913Jo]

@patrickc3419, Jesus has revealed in the parable of Wheat and Tares that there are only two(2)kinds of people in the world, the children of God and the children of the devil.. All the children of God are predestined to be saved, and all the children of the devil are predestined to be burned in fire... Example of the children of the devil can be found in John 8:44.. Example of the children of God can be found in Romans 8:14... Based on this revelation of Jesus, I concluded that all the children of God are born a believer and have the will to be saved... It also contradicts the doctrine of the reformed that all the descendants of Adam are totally depraved and unable to believe the gospel, they must be regenerated first to have a new heart to be able to believe and be saved...

Love it when Christians worhsip God with their intellect and not just their emotions

[@TheKing-qz9wd]

And vice versa

[@smilloww2095]

I honestly hate it when people do it with just their emotions. For one because its not a good idea to base your beliefs and decisions on emotions, those should always be made with the mind. Mind on the steering wheel, emotions come after. And for another because this causes christians (and other religious people for that matter) to not be not taken serious by the world and i hate to see that.

[@Soli_Deo_Gloria_.]

Love God with all your heart, soul and *minds.*

[@nathanoppy]

I lived as a Christian in my emotions only and it was dangerous. I actually walked away from the faith for a long time because I couldn’t feel Gods presence. So I walked away now that I’m back with Christ I just stay in the word of God it’s the only way to get to know God

[@Ben_G_Biegler]

@@nathanoppy Glad your back!🙏

[@cmdesign01]

This is how I know I am saved Bc I do what I don’t want to do in my flesh yet I also see me wanting to do want to want to do in his spirit within me . This brings me deep joy….pursuing the things of God against my inner flesh.

Thank you for making these lectures available. They are truly an exceptional treasure challenging our comfortable scientific thinking mindset. At this time of Artificial intelligence and machine learning rapidly taking over our cognitive burden, intelligence and human thought-exclusivity, D.R.C.Sproul's lectures and their miraculous lucidity uncluttering complex issues has become so precious.

[@theresa42213]

Salins ~ Yes! Amen to that!

[@edsnyder2801]

R C fought the good fight in contending for the faith that was once delivered unto the saints found in Ephesians 4;13. Till we all come unto the unity of the faith in which Paul uses the doctrine of Christ brought forth in the finished work of Christ. The Lord used RC in a remarkable way in my life as a teacher of God's word . Most importantly, the Lord started enlightening the eyes of my understanding brought forth in the revelation of the mystery. I know that the Lord has continually intervened in my life to turn me from a life of sin. The vanity of the world's pleasures had left an emptiness that only The Lord could fulfill! Therefore I believe in the irresistible call of God.

I would love to hear what RC would have to say about what’s going on in our nation today. May we keep our minds on the things above. The Bible says that “The wicked plots against the righteous and gnashes his teeth at him! But the Lord LAUGHS at the wicked for He sees that his day is coming….” Ps. 37:13. So we don’t have to worry and I think that RC would be telling us something along those lines. Thank you Dr. R. C. Sproul for all your wonderful wisdom.

If a person wants to have their mind changed they need to keep reading the Word of God daily with devotion and with the help of the Holy Spirit. Also I would recommend a book called "Victory over the Darkness" by Neil T. Anderson. In that book he posits that when we root our identities firmly in Christ, and really understand this identity in our minds, only then can our behaviour and emotions change.

[@chrisprzibilla4181]

'Victory over the darkness' is an excellent book. He has much resource material available for the believer's walk in Christ.

[@edsnyder2801]

I have received much opposition from many professing Christians who have openly stated that they do not believe in predestination or election. How scary to stand in disbelief of God's word. That is the Gospel brought forth in the finished work of Christ. There still may be much of God's word that I may not fully understand, but one thing that I do know is that predestination and election are both inseparable from the preaching of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery, and the revelation of the mystery is inseparable from the Gospel brought forth in the finished work or we could say the doctrine of Christ . You cannot rightly divide the word of truth when pulling away from this key doctrine! But speaking the truth in love, that we, the church may grow up in Him in All Things.

I think that one of the greatest distortion of God's word is to interpret John 3:16 as if all sheep are His. I love the simplicity of Gospel brought forth in John 3:16 because I am amongst the whosoever will. As I also share the simplicity of the Gospel with whosoever will. We the church are commanded to go and make disciples of men teaching them, the church, to observe all things that Jesus has commanded us. Our spiritual warfare is not against flesh and blood but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world. The rulers of the darkness of this world and spiritual wicked in high places, whether governmental or in the professing church are made up of men in flesh bodies. There are ministers of Satan in the church transforming themselves as ministers of Satan whose end shall be according to their works. Men can twist, distort and even pull away from many of the clear teachings such as Jude teaching us, the church that that there are certain men crept into the professing church who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men. Another hard saying brought forth with such clarity that must not be opinionated. These counterfeit sheep are not the sheep of the Great Shepherd Our Lord Jesus. As I observe all teachings of our Lord he plainly taught us, the church that tares would grow up amongst us as and also they were of the wicked one and the enemy that soweth them is the devil. The doctrine of Christ that Paul uses to bring the church to the unity of the faith in the finish work Christ is found in Ephesians is for the church . That we the church may speak truth in love, growing up in Him in All Things. Sadly many in the church today are not taught the truth of the Gospel brought forth in the finished work of Christ. Remember, Jesus said to the Jews which believed on Him. If you continue in my word you shall know the truth! Jesus, again and again called people out for who they really were! He never claimed that all men were His. This is the true Jesus of the Bible that should cause all of us to seek Him with reverence and a Godly fear of repentance in the truth of his word. So whosoever will, let him come and drink of the waters of life freely.

You see Geoffrey, making a decision, a choice, to trust Christ as one's Savior, is not "works". It is a simple, childlike, act of faith. That's it. That's all Jesus asks for us to be saved.
