    I had to stop this video half a dozen times to weep... I don't know how his audience managed to not weep. I would have had to leave the room every two minutes as he told the story of Hosanna. I have lost many pets in my life. I loved every one of them. I also lost my youngest daughter - a daughter that I loved with all my heart for 28 years. I am no stranger to that pain.

    Testimony: I’ve seen hours of ligonier footage and in my study today I wanted to go back on one these videos that I knew he covered Genesis 15 (one of RC’s favorite chapters and verses). But in doing so I saw this video. Closer to the end I teared up (sensitive heart), and can’t even fathom as to why he saved a sinner like me. This world is so wicked and evil but as I’ve been studying we realize that God is still on his throne. We realize that complete surrender to him is the ultimate wake up call to get stronger with him. Tests after tests after tests only provide us with more of his strength and understanding. The Lord Jesus Christ died for the sin of the world. I can’t even fathom when our savior was put on that cross how he felt knowing that the sins of the world were on his shoulders. I’m no theologian and I am no pastor but what I can say is that he was raised for our justification. Oh how high are the depths of Gods grace and mercy. Whoever is dealing pain. Whoever is dealing with sorrow. Jesus says that you can go to him. He says he will give you rest, and although your sins be like scarlet, he will wash them away and make you whiter than snow. For he that calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. I say this with tears in my eyes because we can never know the depths of Gods love on this plain. May God richly bless you with his grace and provide you with the knowledge of him to continue going forth in the power of HIS might.
    Amen

I love his story of how he was going to have to break up with his then girlfriend Vespa because she wasn't a Chritian, but God had a different plan for R C, he got many years with a wonderful wife.

    I do not think that Abraham doubted God for three days. I believe his rock solid faith oversaw all his thoughts those three days. I’m sure Abraham wondered at God’s purpose, but scripture says his faith never wavered even a little. I’m not sure anyone else has ever displayed that much faith, period. Until Jesus, that is.

    RC has Abe picking Isaac up as if he’s a ten or twelve year old - but Isaac is a man of 30. Isaac, like Jesus who would come, was obedient to his father, even unto death. Isaac has the faith of Abraham and lies down to be bound on the altar willingly. That’s exactly what Romans 12:1 asks of each of us, isn’t it?

    Certainly Abraham was shock to the test and hurt to sacrifice his son Isaac but he knew for sure that God can raise Isaac from the dead.
    To me Abraham saying to the men " we will worship and ..... we will return " is statement of faith in knowing that God could raise Isaac.
    Moreover according Hebrews 11: 18 that Abraham had this knowledge because of the promise of God he had recived earlier that in Isaac his descendent shall be called ", and not any other.

      He’s not gonna say what He was about to do to isaac to his Men and in front of Isaac himself. The men could have contested and isaac would have run. Also Abraham could be thinking, hoping that God has a change of Plan and a new promise for him after he done the sacrifice.

    I have a question, The days of Abraham there was no Jewish Nation. Oh, there is no Ten Commandments. Oh, there are no ceremonial laws, There is no circumcision. . If God hadn't reach down and chosen Abraham ? When Abraham died would he have gone to heaven or would he have been lost?

      God the father calls his elect. Do you think he will forget to call even one of them?

    Admittedly, you've lost a lot of humanity if you can swiftly take the life of a loved one, even a pet.

    Hello there my dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ Jesus, I hear and read many words from you of Faith in Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour that when a person dies in this life and they Love and obey the Gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ ! ( its His Gospel and not from us ! ) . That they go in to presence of God ! Well dear Brothers and Sisters, this is not in the Bible ! This in one of many incorrect teachings that came from what the Great Apostle Paul, says in his letter to the Thessalonians “ there will come a falling away” ! But, about what he says about what really happens at the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, “ the dead in Christ will rise first ! And we who are alive and remain at His second coming will be caught together with them in the air and shall ever be with the Lord, and comfort one another with these words!
    It is unbiblical to say that the righteous go to heaven when they die ! If this is true, then why does our Lord Jesus, resurrects His people and takes them to heaven at His Second Advent ? With all the translated saints ! All then go to heaven with the Lord Jesus Christ, when He returns to this sad world to give them their mansion in the New Jerusalem city ! And eternal life !
    Let the Holy Bible be true and every person be a liar ! Its not difficult to obtain God’s truth from Gods Word, the unity of the Scriptures through the guiding influence of The Holy Spirit!
