R.C. Sproul: Good Advice or Good News? 

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

Missed deeply .... RC Sproul passion for the unadulterated purity for The Truth is a rarity in this day we find ourselves in ..... Missed deeply

Oh what a treasure it is to have his sermons recorded and live on here on earth

I thank God for the gift He gave R.C. of communicating the good news of God's amazing grace.

Oh how I pray that my Muslim friend's eyes and ears would be opened to this truth. Like Paul told the Greeks, they have such a zeal for righteousness, but they are blind to holiness. Praise God that His word does not return void. The simple though profound message of the gospel is the power of God unto salvation for all people. Yes, many will walk away with their heads held high or low, but those who have been given ears to hear will run to Christ. And we as believers need to hear the gospel every day also because we live amongst a people of unclean lips and become contaminated by our surroundings.

All glory to God !! ♥️💯

Praise the Lord for this wonderful servant. I no longer credit myself at my best, for I recall too well my utter depravity! I almost become discouraged by the ease with which I sin!

I don’t have words how to explain about R.C , only I can say to listen his sermons means you will be in another world.

I love this man. Pray to meet him someday. God Bless

Amen. This was a powerful explanation of the account of the rich young ruler. Thankful to God for the ministry of R.C. Sproul.

Thanks for sharing this great biblical teaching by Dr. Sproul.

Thank you so much for the videos you are sharing. I love the way that R C Sproul opens up, breaks down and explains things. His teachings have changed my life and my messages and he has really got me digging deeper and deeper. Thank you!

Honestly I never heard it this way, really, it has helped me understand the passage of the rich young ruler. Easier to relate to now.

JESUS CHRIST IS LORD

The standard of righteousness is GODS own character....and the law being Spiritual and we are Carnal sold into bondage to sin.The law of God is the tutor that drives us to Christ ...for we are unclean and our righteousness is as filthy rags.Thanks to Jesus Christ our Lord who’s righteousness is imputed to us ...through grace by Faith. R C Sproul amazing servant of God ..how beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those that bring good news..

excellent preaching comes from excellent understanding and studying of the Bible.

The best message is the one that comes from the heart. RC and Piper i noticed speak with the heart!!

This message is a lucid presentation of the Good News, expounded by good use of the power/authority of God's word. I now have a new appreciation and love for Mark's account of Jesus' encounter and exchange with the rich young ruler. In past studies, I thought I saw Jesus attempting to reveal to this young man exactly who he was talking to-God incarnate. Something like, "No one but God is good, and here you're calling Me good, so what does that tell you about who I am?" Now, it seems such a sophomoric thought against Dr. Sproul's hermeneutic. And it leaves me pondering why the Spirit did not expound it to me like that. The more I study and listen to more learned men, the more deficient I consider myself to be as a bible teacher, though I've filled that role for more than a decade.

Jesus is the Resurrection and the Life!

What a great message and it is so true .

You’ll never find two greater men on this earth who have a greater understanding of the word of God than R.C. Sproul and John MacArthur

Good for you !

Sproul is contrasting Law vs. Gospel. Listen up people.

When Jesus asked; Why do you call Me good?... was He impressing upon this man that He, Himself, was and is, God?

The rich young ruler missed out on his calling of true discipleship with Christ. That is why we cannot love the world neither the things that are in the world... we must love Christ more.

If you do not understand the message, listen to it again; and if necessary, again. If you still do not understand, you are compelled to go into Scripture and check Dr. Sproul's statements against Scripture. We are compelled to ask the Holy Spirit to open our understanding as we involve ourselves in a deeper study of God's Word. Be very sure of your "innocence" before Christ before you label someone a blasphemer! Quit such hastiness until after you have been assured by Scripture's tenets that the blasphemer is not you.

I like RC, but I think he might be incorrect on this young ruler. The bible says Jesus ‘loved’ him. I reckon that means the guy was as good as anybody could (humanly) be. He had obeyed the teachings of the 10 commandments, and I think his request was sincere. I think Jesus was testing him when he asked why he called him good. He went away unhappy, but maybe he was saved later. Who’s to say?

No time or clocks in heaven

Who wants to bet RC's friend from Cincinnati (15:33) is an economist?

St John expounds ultimately pays it with one's life if Jesus's unto lastly hour if not he'd likely released that criminal on cross less than heavens as Christ thus made good from start of creations upto Godly redemption, let's doing His will only be believing?!

In money I trust. 🌿

And I don't like you now my brother now and lm not afraid for your now and you alone my brother now and I hade you now and I get out my needs for you my brother now?

Zel

My comment is that there is NO ghost mentioned in scripture, only SPIRIT! Yet, there are churches that use ghost but it is wrong. He should know better.

Holy GHOST??????

He acted like his church didn't have any non believers in his church , however thought this church does. Not good !

i like the jokes of RC Sproul but I can't help but poke holes in his teachings. the central point of these 40 minutes, that all humans are utterly incapable of keeping the law, is so packed with presupposition and explicitly flies in the face of the bible as to zeal, a persecutor of the church; as to RIGHTEOUSNESS under the law, blameless. phil.3:6 Here, St Paul explicitly teaches he was able to follow the law, without flaw, while he was a pharisee. Many reformed laud this admission as true piety before all Holy God. As most Christians do. Admitting that, though he did it, it doesnt save him. Unwittingly, the reformed have no idea how deadly a blow this is to total inability and the general commands of God all through the scriptures. God commands us all the time to do things and if we can do them, and they can contribute to our salvation, well, faith alone and a litany of other doctrines are mere illusion. Now, since Paul could do it, anyone can. You, me, the rich young ruler. Which throws a revealing light on to the whole parable. He asks Jesus how he can be saved. Jesus asks if he kept the commandments, which is possible since Paul did it. He says yes. Jesus gives him one more task. Which he walks away from. This last point also clearly refutes Calvinism. Jesus gave him a task to be saved that his apostles had done, that he would have to do himself. Jesus didn't give him something absolutely impossible like never have another unclean thought again. Even then, all things are possible through God, so he could've done even that with Gods power. Meaning our own righteousness, created and preserved by God, leads to our salvation. I mean, what would sproul think would happen if things went the other way? imagine this: The rich young ruler has a profound change of heart, sells his belongings, and marches straight away to Jesus . How will Jesus react?" whoops! actually, everything i told you wasn't about how you get saved even though I said it was. You see, we are writing this thing called the bible and we needed a dramatic, but subtle, story of me softly rebuking a confused young man for literally no reason. and no one will know this except me and people 1500 years from now. Wow, i feel kinda bad." Lastly, Christ teaches the same thing, abandon your riches and you will be saved, three times. Sproul says the first is Jesus just playing off of the rich young ruler pride. But he walks away, and Jesus says it's the inability of the rich to abandon the world that they will hardly be saved. Then, after all this, the apostles are terrified and ask , since they did all this , what will happen of them? You see, here would be the responsible point where Jesus corrects their misunderstanding that Sproul thinks they're working with. What does He say? Because of their abandonment they will receive great treasures. Here, the entire misunderstanding of Sproul is made clear. Either Jesus is just messing with everyone or He , as repeatedly says, is teaching one must do things to be saved.
