The camera pan to the audience at the end is something that hits you right in your very soul. If you pause it, you'll see faces of bewilderment, fear, loathing, conviction and complete awe. God's word struck them deeply, and it strikes me...
I was there that day. I can't begin to tell you the intensity in the room as he approached the end of the sermon. Truly one of the most memorable moments for me as a listener. This is a fine example of God honoring substance above the intrigue of human delivery.
I was there too. I remember leaving into the bright Louisville sunlight going to look for a place to eat and being overwhelmed by the sense of God’s love for me.
I recently had this very thought and realized for the first time, after 30 years of being a Christian, that not only did Christ die for our sins but he shielded us from God's justified and holy wrath. I had never thought of that before. You don't hear that in church. Pastors don't talk about the wrath of God. But it is right there plain as the nose on your face. Read Ezekiel 6 some time. Realize Christ was there and in full agreement with the Father. And what makes it even crazier is God himself became the object of his own wrath. It makes my head swim.
Steve W April 14, 2018 Isn't our LORD GOD absolutely Magnificent, Steven! HE took on our flesh, without the sin, in order to save us from HIS Own Just and Holy Wrath! Literally blows my finite mind, as well! LORD bless you, Steve, and may HE continue to increase your spiritual understanding and knowledge and wisdom of HIM, our Father, and of our LORD GOD and Savior and King, Jesus Christ, HIS ONE and ONLY Son! PRAISE GOD IN CHRIST JESUS' HOLY NAME FOREVER!
The same thought dawned on me, when I tried to explain one of the Bible verses he tried to memorize for the sunday school. It was something that I haven’t figured out until that moment just like you.
Steve W May 24, 2018 I just noticed that I sent the comment meant for you, Steven, to myself. But, I went back and read Ezekiel 6 as you suggested and noticed that I past over verses 8-10 the first time I read the prophecy. It's another passage in the old testament where we see our LORD Jesus, which ties in beautifully with Isaiah 53. Thank you so much for your insight!
I had learned this information before watching this, but i don’t think it hit me as hard as when he broke it down. I legitimately cried from the conviction. Knowing my Lord Jesus had to suffer to this unimaginable degree for my sake.
To say that Dr. Sproul was a rock star is to unduly elevate rock stars, and to diminish the life and work of those who faithfully preach the holy, and perfect work of God.
My oldest son (in college) is writing a play based on a "Screwtape Letters" concept (pray for him). One aspect of it made me think of the "Divine Malediction," which I heard for the first time last year. I listened again this morning as I sent him this link. It chilled me to my core... again! what was ironic to me was, hearing it brought me to near weeping tears of painful joy because I know the curse is not for me, though I deserve it. It IS what Christ experienced on the cross in my place, though He did NOT deserve it.
The fact that this sermon has been viewed so few times is unfortunate - one of the best I've ever heard from Sproul. So many Christians have no concept of the curse that we so richly deserved, and what it meant for Christ to become the curse for us. This fact has driven me to my knees weeping for joy because of grace and horror because of what my sin has done to Jesus.
This truth was revealed to me in the past few years. I was also preaching this truth in my churches. But today hearing this teaching in detail, l received a great blessing from Christ. Really Jesus became a curse for me on the tree, otherwise l would never have received the blessings from the Father. I praise God for this great sermon by Dr. Sproul.
One of my favorite sermons by Dr. Sproul. I learned to love the Doctrines of Grace and Reformed Theology through his teachings. Praise God for the availability of decades of his sermons and writings that will continue to bless generations to come!
One of the best sermons I've ever heard. RC's delivery is so soulful, you can tell this is something God put on his heart. A desperate yearning to see God's face, and the promise that because of Jesus becoming a curse for us, those who take up their cross and follow him will achieve that blessed rest one day. This man was such a blessing to God's church.
I expected this message to be profound, but what surprised me is that I teared up toward the end. It’s so important for us to reflect on Christ’s sacrifice. Thank you, Jesus!
I thank God for leading me to this teaching, as well as to the teachings of Pastor Paul Washer. We seldomly hear this truth nowadays. God bless this ministry and I thank God for the life He has given to Pastor Robert Sproul. He has joined the saints, elders, angels, and the four creatures in Heaven, worshipping the Lord. Greetings from the Philippines.
Kapatid Harvey, San Po kayo dumadalo ng Gawain sa pilipinas? Matagal na Rin Po akong naghahanap Ng mga kapatid na may parehas na turo gaya Ng sa ligionier ministry at grace to you..
This struck me on a deep level, thanks be to the Word of our living God through the elocution of R.C. Pray that our Lord would raise up a new generation of the most Godly preachers.
Thank God for the insightful discussion about the price it cost our Lord Jesus Christ paid what pain was worse the separation from the Father or wrath of His Father but when the sun refused to shine tells an in-depth moment in time as if the world stood still His beloved Son gave us His life in love 🙏
I came to know the truth that Jesus became a Curse on the tree in 2014 partly, and was preaching in our Lutheran churches in Odisha of lndia. But hearing this sermon of Dr. Sproul l came to know the details of this truth. I will preach this truth more confidently now to my congregations. Please pray for me.
Dr. Sproul was the another Martin Luther of our time. Luther was also preaching this truth and have written, though in a smaller major. Thank God for this Reformed theology is being preached thorough the world by His faithful servants.
We need more worship songs that reflect this biblical truth. The curse given by God in response to Adam's rebellion is still at work. We still grow old and die. We are prone to sin, and to suffer from both our own sins and those of others. I'm tired of being around Christians who believe that God is going to make everything smooth and comfortable for them. We are blessed beyond comprehension, but troubles will never leave us alone.
And if your way of thinking prevailed we would not have Amazing Grace, A Mighty Fortress Is Our God, or many other profound worship songs. The Psalms are great, but there is far more to the bible that can, and does, inspire helpful, doctrinally accurate, worship music.
I feel this sermon was from the very bottom of DR. Srroul heart and soul . I rather listen to this man than most . But you can be sure if he has as guest Speaker he is a man who preaches the Word as he does (Dr Sproul )
One of the best sermons on the crucifiction I have ever heard or will hear so Thankful to the Lord For RC Sproul ad how the Lord worked in R.C. to achieve what He has over his life and now He is with Lord He Loved .
This is so good! I thank God for a faithful man of the word of God! I don’t know where I’d be without learning about him and others in the reformed faith. Praise God!
R.C. sermons are usually illuminating, but this one is positively radiant. The light of the gospel, by the power of the Holy Spirit, continues to shine forth through his words.
April 14, 2018 I absolutely LOVE the honesty and truthfulness of our big brother IN Christ R.C.'s teaching heart! Sounds like our LORD GOD, Jesus Christ, when HE testified on HIS earth of our LORD GOD and Father's Holiness, Righteousness, Sovereignty, Goodness, Beauty, Truth, and Justice! PRAISE GOD!
That really was one of Sproul's best... We need to always meditate on what happened with the KING in those long agonizing hours on the cross.. And what it meant for us...
If you love me, keep my commandments 1 John 3:4 Sin is transgression of the Law If you love God, you must keep His commandments, the Law doesn't save us, but show us what is sin. If we keep commandments out of love for Jesus, and tell others about the cross and how He paid the price, that doesn't mean we should continue in sin, we understand the Gospel.
Amen and amen, why the whole Christian world fail to understand this simple truth, that the Law of God, the Ten Commandments is the Holy Character of God, written down on those two tables of stones, that the Almighty God, want to write them on our hearts and minds in His people ! I am not talking about the Ceremonial Law or the 5 Books of the Law called the Torah ! I am talking about the Law of God, which was known in heaven as the “ Law of Love”, which Lucifer broke away from ! And was the very first sinner in Gods created universe! 1John 4:8; Sin is the transgression of the Law ( of God) ! How sad to hear many, many Christians in this fallen world, say we are released from keeping these 10 Commandments? What a very sad deception is this ! How can we say this, when the Lord Jesus Christ, said these words :- “ If you Love me, keep my ( Character) Commandments “. Many of His unrepentant people say ‘no we don’t need to keep them, because we are under Grace’ ! What a real deception from satan, is this ! Grace is the method by how we keep Gods Law, Grace is the method, and God’s Commandments are the test standard! Sin is identified as breaking Gods character, which is Holy, which us this Law of Love ! These 10 Commandments! See Revelation 14:12; ‘ here those who keep the Commandments of God, and have the Faith of Jesus’. ! It is real blaspheme to say and preach and teach that we do not need to keep His Commandments which is the Character of God himself ! Amen and Amen
Just read in Thoreau's Walden where he compares a light in the darkness to God shining against the humility of a humble person. So, I like here near the end where he says that those of pure of heart can see God.
Cheers. Just a few days ago, I found this site exposittheword.com. RC does a verse by verse of Romans (additionally, 60+ other expositors are featured). Hope you find it as well needed as I did
This makes sense if you completely ignore the role Barabbas plays in the story. Barabbas is the scapegoat that is released. Most people would rather choose the scapegoat than to examine their own sin and follow Christ.
No space case 😅😅😅😅😅 Barabbas is the choice 9f the people he didnt get killed Christ did What drug's are you on 😅😅😅😅😅 Who ties your shoelaces for you 😅😅😅😅 Wow. How do you feed yourself with an iq that low 😅😅😅😅😅😅

The Father never forsook the Son. People say, Well, they were fragmented. Are you kidding? Deity being fragmented? The Godhead would have ceased to exist. Father, Son, and Spirit have always been in that perichoresis, in that circle of love. It’s never wavered for one moment, even at the cross, which is encouraging to us, because like Jesus, when we cry out, why have you forsaken me, we can know God says, “I haven’t. I’m with you.” He’ll never forsake us. Steve McVey
What a space cadet in a cult Typical no bible just evil human anti logic imposed on your Mickey mouse fantasy prosperity imaginary 'god' This is the thinking of all atheists which you are
Jesus has abandoned me, and I cannot beg Him back. Strange thing, I feel His light, but He will not answer my prayers. My faith is shattering. Jesus once loved me like you would not understand. Problem is, I kept denying Him, repenting, and renounced Him one final time, and He left. I always thought ones who committed the unpardonable sin had hearts so hardened they did not care about God at all. I do care. It's back to before me "conversion" days, too caught up in my sin. Is there really no hope for me? Jesus, God, has abandoned me, turned His back on me, and His Spirit is gone.
@President Christopher Dear Friend, Jesus cannot abandon. He either never was with you or will never leave you as He promised. I sincerely urge you to examine your life in the light of the Bible and talk to believers to teach you about the gospel. We are born again only by grace and we are sustained only by grace. Perhaps God not answering your prayer is actually the answer you were not anticipating. Perhaps God is taking you through a phase of learning utter dependence on Him and His will. Perhaps you are saved and just need a waking up in your walk with Christ or perhaps you haven't been saved so far. Please do not treat this lightly. Please go to an Elder in a local Church if you're not already part of a local Church and have God speak to you through them. But more than anything, pray and ask God to show you grace and mercy in revealing scriptures to you. Will be waiting to hear from you.
Restricting oneself from doing whatever we want on the 7th day bc obedience is not as easy as those who by disobedience claim that they need not to follow a God’s command bc grace is the license Jesus gave to disobey!!!
Its good to read the Present with Religion, a book for free on the internet.The book is about the truth of life and it shows the full pictire of life for the first time so that you may stop being deceived by the world and be able to follow the steps of Jesus and other prophets to Heaven.Knowing the truth is the key factor in our salvation.We must know the real truth, all of it and live in it and change ourselves according to it in order to be saved.There is no other way to our salvation.With the knowledge of the truth there comes true repentance which means changing our minds and also true obediance to God' s law and finally our sanctification which is a lifong process.And God in His mercy will give us His wonderful grace which is the time and abilityl to make the proper change.Only in this way will we be able to attain our eternal salvation.
Excellent antidote to the heresy of the crossless Christ (Fulton Sheen may have named it) - Jesus as social reformer, not redeemer because without sin there’s nothing to redeem
All his commandments and the minimum is 10! It includes to REMEMBER to keep the 7th day holy. Also, to keep God’s Feasts not man made holidays such as Christmas, Easter…..even the name Easter points us to its pagan origin. Please read Leviticus 23 & follow. Same God in the beginning of the book and the end of the book
A triumph of style over substance. I can listen to Sproul all day - he preaches captivating sermons. But take his words away from his delivery, and read them on a page, and behold the wood, hay and stubble. I did like what he said about "the unconditional love" of God -- I agree with that position wholeheartedly. But the foundations of the rest of his sermon, eloquent and passionate though it may be, is built upon sand.
Deuteronomy 21:22-23 the malefactor on the cross is well aware of the curse upon him and this is what he refers to in Luke 23:40, knowing he has no hope because of this curse turns to Jesus and pleads Luke 23:42. Jesus saves him in Luke 23:43 demonstrating the Glory that is His. The Jew is given 613 laws plus the ten commandments by G-D to teach them to trust Him even if they fail to keep them. Instead they invented Judaism in an attempt to keep them. Jesus comes and elevates those laws to show them how impossible it is to keep even the most basic laws and we invent all of today's religions to try and keep them. When all He wants is for us to trust Him. He goes to the cross willingly to submit to the Father for examination if you will so that all power and authority can be handed over to Him from the Father as His inheritance. See Mark 12:1-11. If not even the Son of G-D is exempt from being judged, who are we to escape judgement? The only way to escape judgement is to humbly ask Him who has been made judge over all flesh. When Jesus cries out why have You forsaken me, it is not an accusation but a statement as you would make if you were accused of something you have not done. Why are you punishing me I have kept all your laws? For six hours The Father examined the Son on the cross looking for any sin, any spot, any blemish and finding none proclaims for the first time since Adam Worthy is the Son whom He Loves to judge all flesh. Jesus broke The Father's only word that the the Father could not punish Him for because Jesus was framed "cursed of G-D is he who hangs on a tree". Jesus is glorified in a promise made to a cursed man. To demonstrate that He had saved that man and to show us that he can keep that promise He was raised from the dead on the third day proving He is mighty to save anyone. The Gospel hidden in plain sight on the cross. If you've read this you have just been shown the narrow gate which is hard to find. You don't accept the King of Kings He accepts you. The promise reiterated in Romans 10:13. Yours is not the choice to be saved. It is and has always been His to save you.
Christians are starving for this kind of preaching.
Amen
And the hymns of the faith because the words come from the Bible!
The camera pan to the audience at the end is something that hits you right in your very soul. If you pause it, you'll see faces of bewilderment, fear, loathing, conviction and complete awe. God's word struck them deeply, and it strikes me...
I was there that day. I can't begin to tell you the intensity in the room as he approached the end of the sermon. Truly one of the most memorable moments for me as a listener. This is a fine example of God honoring substance above the intrigue of human delivery.
I was there too. I remember leaving into the bright Louisville sunlight going to look for a place to eat and being overwhelmed by the sense of God’s love for me.
I've listened to almost everything R.C. ever put out. This is, IMHO, his finest message ever.
LORD thank you for faithful preachers like R.C. Sproul who exposit the Your Holy Word.
I recently had this very thought and realized for the first time, after 30 years of being a Christian, that not only did Christ die for our sins but he shielded us from God's justified and holy wrath.

Realize Christ was there and in full agreement with the Father. And what makes it even crazier is God himself became the object of his own wrath. It makes my head swim.

The same thought dawned on me, when I tried to explain one of the Bible verses he tried to memorize for the sunday school. It was something that I haven’t figured out until that moment just like you.
We talk about being saved. Saved from what? We are saved through the atonement of Christ from the wrath of God. That is salvation.

"Moses, you didn't read the book you wrote?" 😂😂😂 Sproul always had great humour ❤🌼
I have learned SO MUCH from the teaching of RC Sproul...and I am blessed...PLEASE keep posting these...GOD'S BEST BLESSINGS BE UPON YOU ALL!!!
I had learned this information before watching this, but i don’t think it hit me as hard as when he broke it down. I legitimately cried from the conviction. Knowing my Lord Jesus had to suffer to this unimaginable degree for my sake.
To say that Dr. Sproul was a rock star is to unduly elevate rock stars, and to diminish the life and work of those who faithfully preach the holy, and perfect work of God.
I hope that it is not heresy to imagine the angels rising to their feet in applause upon Dr. Sproul's opening his eyes in heaven.
My oldest son (in college) is writing a play based on a "Screwtape Letters" concept (pray for him).

I've watched this sermon MANY times and I will continue to do so . wow ... wow .... and wow !
Thank God for the insightful discussion about the price it cost our Lord Jesus Christ paid what pain was worse the separation from the Father or wrath of His Father but when the sun refused to shine tells an in-depth moment in time as if the world stood still His beloved Son gave us His life in love 🙏
One of the greatest sermons ever! What a blessing!
Amen!
I have watched this sermon more than 30 times in a span of 2 months. What a blessing and spirit fill message.
A hard hitting message I pray I can stand and repeat the truths in it... Thanks RC. RIP from 🌏 Australia
An outstanding preacher and a true blessing from God! Praise the Lord for this ‘gift’ to His children. A remarkable under Shepherd indeed!
I came to know the truth that Jesus became a Curse on the tree in 2014 partly, and was preaching in our Lutheran churches in Odisha of lndia. But hearing this sermon of Dr. Sproul l came to know the details of this truth. I will preach this truth more confidently now to my congregations. Please pray for me.
I wish that this sermon had been fresh on my mind when I preached 1 John 3 We shall be like Him for we shall see Him as He is.
Dr. Sproul was the another Martin Luther of our time. Luther was also preaching this truth and have written, though in a smaller major. Thank God for this Reformed theology is being preached thorough the world by His faithful servants.
This is one of the most powerful illuminations of Calvary I’ve ever heard preached.
We need more worship songs that reflect this biblical truth. The curse given by God in response to Adam's rebellion is still at work. We still grow old and die. We are prone to sin, and to suffer from both our own sins and those of others. I'm tired of being around Christians who believe that God is going to make everything smooth and comfortable for them. We are blessed beyond comprehension, but troubles will never leave us alone.
deezynar. God has provided 150 Psalms for your worship. They are filled with all manner of theology on almost every subject.
And if your way of thinking prevailed we would not have Amazing Grace, A Mighty Fortress Is Our God, or many other profound worship songs. The Psalms are great, but there is far more to the bible that can, and does, inspire helpful, doctrinally accurate, worship music.
Amen and Amen to this most powerful truth!! Preach it....dear brothers in Christ!!
I feel this sermon was from the very bottom of DR. Srroul heart and soul . I rather listen to this man than most . But you can be sure if he has as guest Speaker he is a man who preaches the Word as he does (Dr Sproul )
Thanks be to God...
That is so deep...
That is the Gospel of God!
Thank you Father for blessing us with RC Sproul
One of the best sermons on the crucifiction I have ever heard or will hear so Thankful to the Lord For RC Sproul ad how the Lord worked in R.C. to achieve what He has over his life and now He is with Lord He Loved .
Profound Gospel Of Christ. Thanks R.C. I love your work. :)
I have listened to sermon numerous times throughout the years. It helps me to look at the depth of the cross.
I keep coming back to listen to this magnificent biblical sermon by the late, Dr. R.C. Sproul. Praise God (Christ)😊❤
Blessed beyond measure! Humbled by Gods amazing grace!
This is so good! I thank God for a faithful man of the word of God! I don’t know where I’d be without learning about him and others in the reformed faith. Praise God!

That really was one of Sproul's best... We need to always meditate on what happened with the KING in those long agonizing hours on the cross.. And what it meant for us...
Very moving and as usual a great RC sermon.
Amen brother RC Sproul may God bless you and continue to teach the word of God for as long as He gives you life To God be the GloryAMEN!
a startling, sobering, significant sermon
This is an amazing message
How true are Mr RC teaching that’s really according to the word of God , amen 🙏 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌👌👌
I'm listening while working on irragation and it's a out 105. That gave a chill to
If you love me, keep my commandments
1 John 3:4 Sin is transgression of the Law
If you love God, you must keep His commandments, the Law doesn't save us, but show us what is sin. If we keep commandments out of love for Jesus, and tell others about the cross and how He paid the price, that doesn't mean we should continue in sin, we understand the Gospel.
Amen and amen, why the whole Christian world fail to understand this simple truth, that the Law of God, the Ten Commandments is the Holy Character of God, written down on those two tables of stones, that the Almighty God, want to write them on our hearts and minds in His people !
I am not talking about the Ceremonial Law or the 5 Books of the Law called the Torah ! I am talking about the Law of God, which was known in heaven as the “ Law of Love”, which Lucifer broke away from ! And was the very first sinner in Gods created universe! 1John 4:8; Sin is the transgression of the Law ( of God) !
How sad to hear many, many Christians in this fallen world, say we are released from keeping these 10 Commandments? What a very sad deception is this ! How can we say this, when the Lord Jesus Christ, said these words :- “ If you Love me, keep my ( Character) Commandments “.
Many of His unrepentant people say ‘no we don’t need to keep them, because we are under Grace’ ! What a real deception from satan, is this !
Grace is the method by how we keep Gods Law, Grace is the method, and God’s Commandments are the test standard!
Sin is identified as breaking Gods character, which is Holy, which us this Law of Love ! These 10 Commandments!
See Revelation 14:12; ‘ here those who keep the Commandments of God, and have the Faith of Jesus’. !
It is real blaspheme to say and preach and teach that we do not need to keep His Commandments which is the Character of God himself !
Amen and Amen
This is awesome! Sadly, so many hate this message
One of R. C. Sprouls "KEEPERS"
I appreciate RC my favorite teacher
I am going to guess that the ones not clapping at the end have preached that God loves unconditionally.
Just read in Thoreau's Walden where he compares a light in the darkness to God shining against the humility of a humble person. So, I like here near the end where he says that those of pure of heart can see God.
Try the bible😅😅😅
Deep core stomach churning preaching YES I CAN HAS?
RC is irreplaceable.
Wow. Such a powerful preacher. :O
40:00 chills down in my spine
.....Sayeth OUR SOVEREIGN HEAVENLY LIVING LOVING CREATOR JEHOVAH GOD ALL MIGHTY THRU JESUS CHRIST YASHUA And TRUE 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Listened again tonight and sure it won't be the last, how many of the 3 point sermons goes here? None I have heard.
Manila should hear this!
You don't get this vastness
and such clarity of the gospel in the turkey movement ie the charasmatic movement.
Cheers. Just a few days ago, I found this site exposittheword.com. RC does a verse by verse of Romans (additionally, 60+ other expositors are featured). Hope you find it as well needed as I did

The Father never forsook the Son. People say, Well, they were fragmented. Are you kidding? Deity being fragmented? The Godhead would have ceased to exist. Father, Son, and Spirit have always been in that perichoresis, in that circle of love. It’s never wavered for one moment, even at the cross, which is encouraging to us, because like Jesus, when we cry out, why have you forsaken me, we can know God says, “I haven’t. I’m with you.” He’ll never forsake us. Steve McVey

Good Lord...
Jesus has abandoned me, and I cannot beg Him back. Strange thing, I feel His light, but He will not answer my prayers. My faith is shattering. Jesus once loved me like you would not understand. Problem is, I kept denying Him, repenting, and renounced Him one final time, and He left.
I always thought ones who committed the unpardonable sin had hearts so hardened they did not care about God at all. I do care. It's back to before me "conversion" days, too caught up in my sin.
Is there really no hope for me?
Jesus, God, has abandoned me, turned His back on me, and His Spirit is gone.
@President Christopher
Dear Friend, Jesus cannot abandon. He either never was with you or will never leave you as He promised. I sincerely urge you to examine your life in the light of the Bible and talk to believers to teach you about the gospel. We are born again only by grace and we are sustained only by grace. Perhaps God not answering your prayer is actually the answer you were not anticipating. Perhaps God is taking you through a phase of learning utter dependence on Him and His will.
Perhaps you are saved and just need a waking up in your walk with Christ or perhaps you haven't been saved so far.
Please do not treat this lightly. Please go to an Elder in a local Church if you're not already part of a local Church and have God speak to you through them. But more than anything, pray and ask God to show you grace and mercy in revealing scriptures to you.
Will be waiting to hear from you.
@@JoshCalvin Will U just keep praying without ceasing for me.
I will pray for you.
@@andrewmrcz Thank you.

@@damarizlizbethhq6624 gracias. Muy agradecido
What takes more faith? To not keep the 4th commandment or the 7th day Sabbath bc of grace or to actually keep the sabbath holy bc obedience by faith!
Restricting oneself from doing whatever we want on the 7th day bc obedience is not as easy as those who by disobedience claim that they need not to follow a God’s command bc grace is the license Jesus gave to disobey!!!
Come on people let’s not listen to the serpent to induce us to disobey
51:30 , O God, it's for me, the worst sinner.
Its good to read the Present with Religion, a book for free on the internet.The book is about the truth of life and it shows the full pictire of life for the first time so that you may stop being deceived by the world and be able to follow the steps of Jesus and other prophets to Heaven.Knowing the truth is the key factor in our salvation.We must know the real truth, all of it and live in it and change ourselves according to it in order to be saved.There is no other way to our salvation.With the knowledge of the truth there comes true repentance which means changing our minds and also true obediance to God' s law and finally our sanctification which is a lifong process.And God in His mercy will give us His wonderful grace which is the time and abilityl to make the proper change.Only in this way will we be able to attain our eternal salvation.

Please Please brothers. Subtitle in spanish Please.
Excellent antidote to the heresy of the crossless Christ (Fulton Sheen may have named it) - Jesus as social reformer, not redeemer because without sin there’s nothing to redeem
Where can I find the Book „A Host of Tomes?“ 3:58
I believe he's saying he has read many many books
🙏💕 Amen.
All his commandments and the minimum is 10! It includes to REMEMBER to keep the 7th day holy. Also, to keep God’s Feasts not man made holidays such as Christmas, Easter…..even the name Easter points us to its pagan origin. Please read Leviticus 23 & follow. Same God in the beginning of the book and the end of the book

A triumph of style over substance. I can listen to Sproul all day - he preaches captivating sermons. But take his words away from his delivery, and read them on a page, and behold the wood, hay and stubble. I did like what he said about "the unconditional love" of God -- I agree with that position wholeheartedly. But the foundations of the rest of his sermon, eloquent and passionate though it may be, is built upon sand.
Oh yeah. You are much more a greater pastor and theologian than he was.
@@jirunjak Thanks for noticing!
I read your comment and found the stubble.
Deuteronomy 21:22-23 the malefactor on the cross is well aware of the curse upon him and this is what he refers to in Luke 23:40, knowing he has no hope because of this curse turns to Jesus and pleads Luke 23:42.
Jesus saves him in Luke 23:43 demonstrating the Glory that is His.
The Jew is given 613 laws plus the ten commandments by G-D to teach them to trust Him even if they fail to keep them. Instead they invented Judaism in an attempt to keep them. Jesus comes and elevates those laws to show them how impossible it is to keep even the most basic laws and we invent all of today's religions to try and keep them. When all He wants is for us to trust Him.
He goes to the cross willingly to submit to the Father for examination if you will so that all power and authority can be handed over to Him from the Father as His inheritance. See Mark 12:1-11. If not even the Son of G-D is exempt from being judged, who are we to escape judgement?
The only way to escape judgement is to humbly ask Him who has been made judge over all flesh.
When Jesus cries out why have You forsaken me, it is not an accusation but a statement as you would make if you were accused of something you have not done. Why are you punishing me I have kept all your laws?
For six hours The Father examined the Son on the cross looking for any sin, any spot, any blemish and finding none proclaims for the first time since Adam Worthy is the Son whom He Loves to judge all flesh.
Jesus broke The Father's only word that the the Father could not punish Him for because Jesus was framed "cursed of G-D is he who hangs on a tree".
Jesus is glorified in a promise made to a cursed man. To demonstrate that He had saved that man and to show us that he can keep that promise He was raised from the dead on the third day proving He is mighty to save anyone.
The Gospel hidden in plain sight on the cross.
If you've read this you have just been shown the narrow gate which is hard to find.
You don't accept the King of Kings He accepts you. The promise reiterated in Romans 10:13.
Yours is not the choice to be saved. It is and has always been His to save you.
