I got saved at my job in the 1990's listening R.C. Sproul preach. I am eternally grateful!!!!!!!!!! Love this preacher!!!! His intellectual approach reaches me!
Am an African. I stand amazed when I realise how great God has blessed America with such category of men. I listen to his sermons daily. His philosophical, intellectual and spiritual approach to the gospel has changed my soul.
I am hiding under a blanket right now. Detestable in Thy Sight, oh Lord, my sins are bright as a bloody crime scene!!! I dearest not peer out at Thee, Most Holy and Righteous God from 'neath my ragged sheets!!!! I run to Thy Cross, oh Christ, from Whom I receive Thy rescue from my own wretchedness!! This is a powerful and much needed sermon!!!!!!
@@joehofmann6051 I encourage you to listen to the sermon carefully. Indria's post sums up how a believer reacts when they contemplate God's holiness and their sinfulness.
RC Sproul was used in a monumental way, via listening and watching his teachings and sermons, by God to lead me to the Truth! Also other solid teachers: John MacArthur, Steve Lawson, Sinclair Ferguson and the like. I will be praising God with a heart full of thankfulness for eternity that by the power of His Holy Spirit, He lead me to these Godly men which in turn lead me to read the puritans and best of all - The Word…with an understanding that I was blind to before Gods Amazing Grace was granted to me. Thank you Lord Jesus!!! AE
2022 and these sermons remain just as potent as the day they were preached! Full of God's wisdom & full of Truth! Help us to abide by your standards oh Lord & please forgive me when I fall short...for I know this wretched sinner will fall short!
The sermons he preached and the closer to his end came ,he gave us the view of who Sovereign God is really Holy, making us exame ourselves to makes us more humbe before our Father.
Amen. Thank you my heavenly Father, my God for this message to teach us you are the Lord and you are to be worshipped in holy reverence and Your name is to be praised as You have commanded! Holy and reverend is Your name. (Psalm 111:9). Hallelujah!
What a sense of humility! I like your approach to scripture, it is informative but it maintains its Spiritual Power and divinity of our God. Bless you Sir.
"It's one thing to declare your independence from King George, It is another thing to declare it from the ONE Who has established His throne in the heavens Who Will Not Be Mocked" ~ R.C. Sproul
Amen...in our society today the church doesn't teach the holiness of God as much and that is the reason people wear anything to worship God. without holiness Noone can see God. I finally learn what holiness means. may God continue to bless you!
Vladimir Joseph Your right. The Holiness of God must be taught more abundantly. Thank God for the Late R. C. Sproul. He has taught me to think deeper. We have to know God. Not just about him. Did you know he passed over on December 12th, 2017. I was so upset myself. Not a word I know of on the news. Doesn’t surprise me. However he has left so much for us to seek after to be close to our Lord.
If anyone at Ligonier reads these comments... I listen to RC live alot. I really appreciate that channel, the content, and the absence of ads. Amen. If it's possible could you please put a link or a keyword title according to the message Dr Sproul is giving..so we MAY (an RC fan will smile at that) so we may look up that particular single video. I would like to share them..with the world. Some are more simple and plain for my friends that don't know the Bible. Thank you either way.
Believe me, me too. I don’t know where I will be if God had not put RC on my path. I was very confused and disappointed when in 1994 while driving a truck I tapped into Renewing your Mind. It was as if the heaven was opened to me. He is the best of the best preacher. His knowledge, sense of humor and friendship is contagious. One time I went his conference , he autographed my bible, shook my hand and gave the a very friendly smile!!!! I am so grateful to My God for RC!!!
I've watched this video several times. Three years ago, I bought the book GOSPEL WORSHIP by Jeremiah Burroughs. I'm settled that Nadab and Abihu allowed the 'perpetual tabernacle alter fire" to go out. The incense censure flame source was to be from this alter fire. One must include the unauthorized use of alcohol. Use of alcohol or under it's influence while working or preparing to work in the House of the Lord. I nutshell it this way: Nadab and Abihu were under the influence which caused neglect to their many duties and the real mistake was not keeping a high priority on ALL things of tabernacle worship. There are no jots nor titles concerning the things of worship of God. The alter flame extinguished. Nadab and Abihu created their own flame, out of haste.
God will not break his word. No matter what or who it pertains to if it's the word of the Lord it is bound by his holiness. It will not be broken for anyone no matter what the circumstance.
You know when something goes to fall and reflexively you go to catch it. Cannot help to think that Ahaz reflexively sought to grab something that was falling. Has anyone considered this
i heard you RC and no longer you are alive but sleep and i have like your sermons, be cause always explain words and more than a sermon tanks for make clear and more understanding the holy book of YHWH.
Excellent point. Of course we know that God is Merciful and Gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. He will be Merciful to whom He will be Merciful and show compassion to whom He will show compassion. He will by no means clear the guilty. Sooner or later the guilty will be punished, either in Christ on the Cross, or standing on their own.
Cuz when we sin it sets worth motion consequence that cannot be disregarded. If it was sin without knowledge still sets forth a motion of consequence that's why the blood of Christ absolutely fundamental any of us could possibly stand a chance
Our God is terrifying. I don't know why any Christian would be confused or upset on this point. I have no idea why anyone (again, any Christian) would think the God of the NT is any different than the God of the OT.
Thank you Dr Sproul for your insights, if a foreign fire resulted in such punishment, please consider what consequences foreign Decalogue has on the New Testament Sanctuary that is the Christian Church. In Daniel 8:14 it is prophesied: Sanctuary will be cleansed. Examination of Hebrew words Tsadak, Kodesh, in that text, reveals the following meaning: Kodesh/Shabbat will Tsadek/return to the Law of the Sanctuary. It is time for all Protestants to remove the charge of Judaization from the Biblical Decalogue.
Henry Firus. Dr. Sproul will agree with you on the Holiness of God and the Sabbath for the Old Covenant, but he will not follow you so far as to acknowledge the 7th Day Sabbath, for Christians today. Do not be fooled by his appearance of Christian piety, he is a diehard Calvinist and exponent of the submission of the believer to the human church authorities, the very principle which the true Sabbath was designed to protect us from.
Hebrews 13:17 "17 Have confidence in your leaders and submit to their authority, because they keep watch over you as those who must give an account. Do this so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no benefit to you."
kodenich. So i guess Martin Luther should have submitted to the Roman Catholic Cardinals and the Pope, based on your interpretation of scripture. The Reformation was a sin, wow !
That is not the necessary outcome of my interpretation. There is also a command to test the spirits, and also to have one person preach against the other to determine what is true. I'm interested in hearing YOUR interpretation of that passage, though.
kodenich. That is easy. If your leaders profess the essential elements of the Gospel and they are not involved in egregious sin, by all means respect and submit to their authority. Next ?
They must have taking it all as a joke all along for the Lord to have been that angry he had enough of their smart remarks jokes and scoffing and mocking I guarantee there was more than one incident where they would try to make a joke and that day they just went one step too far
May Father YAHweh bless your understanding and show you His Resurrected Son YAHwehShua. From the book of Hebrews 1:4 YAHshua has by inheritance obtained His most excellent Resurrected NAME.
@KnightOfTheKing 1.Interpreted in the light of the Messiah, the Old Testament is part of the Word of God. 2. What Sproul did was bring the pre-Christ view of YHWH into the New Covenant, though even in the O.T. the revelation of Yah was constantly progressing. 3.I believe in the Old and New Testaments as the Word of God in their essential message and also the Book of Enoch which is part of the Ethiopian and Coptic canon, which has 81 books. 4. The 66 book canon was based on the Roman Catholic councils, which decided what was worthy before Protestants and Evangelicals ever emerged. On what authority do you consider only those 66 books as the all sufficient Word of God ?
Does your Bible happen to have II Timothy? If it does, perhaps if you read 3:16-17 you might be helped to understand that Paul was primarily referring to the Old Testament. "It is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, correction and instruction in righteousness so that the man of God will be thoroughly equipped for every good work". Try to learn a lot more before criticizing someone who has more experience and understanding than you are likely to ever have. Thank you and have a great day.
People with this level of understanding need to get off of their hands and read the bible for themselves. The God of the old testament is the same as the God of the new testament. It is Jesus Christ, the word of God!!
Every time I think I know God then a message like this shakes me into the reality that I know nothing of who I really am

We share in the blessing. 🥹

A very hard, but so true sermon. God forgive us for failing to see You first in all.

Great sermon
God is holy and we’re not. Like RC used to say. And he is right.
Lord have mercy on us!
God will not break his word. No matter what or who it pertains to if it's the word of the Lord it is bound by his holiness. It will not be broken for anyone no matter what the circumstance.
I have committed cosmic treasure, praise Jesus for his redemption.
The Lord is Holy☮️
Now that was powerful preaching
So wonderful.
It's always the WORD, more than the man....
Forgive us all, oh Lord!
Wow, We’re my eyes open..

My own arrogance I confess and reit.
"God will never judge us" that's how we fall into a "normalcy" bias... It hasn't happened before so it won't happen now
Wow!

@theotherme4120,
Definitely! Christ died once and for all... But if he is not one of the elect like king David, he is lost forever...
God wills that we do disobey the civil magistrates when it would be breaking God's law to do so.
