R. C. Sproul, The Truth of the Cross: “Sin is cosmic treason.” With those words, I [am] trying to communicate the seriousness of human sin. We rarely take the time to think through the ramifications of our sin. We fail to realize that in even the slightest sins we commit, such as little white lies […]

Sproul on the omnipotence of God, affirming also the sufficiency of God, who does all things His will desires without dependence on any other thing: Aristotle was perplexed by the mysteries of change and motion.

Read More Shepherds’ Conference registration now openFrom R. C. Sproul, The Mystery of the Holy Spirit [pp. 165-7.]: Here [in Galatians 5:22-25] the Apostle exhibits the model of authentic righteousness. The fruit is designated as the fruit of the Spirit. Fruit is something that is produced in us. It is not of ourselves. In ourselves we are only flesh. The flesh […]
Read More R. C. Sproul on spiritual fruitOn first reading, it seems like just a simple statement in a story. We know that the sentence reveals an event that is important, but the real significance of the words is not readily apparent. “And after He had said these things, He was lifted up while they were looking on, and a cloud received […]

Here are two that I find particularly helpful and a couple more that I have penned in response to various tragedies. First, Al Mohler has republished the sermon he gave two days after the attack.

Read More How to think about 9/11The release of one book has produced a massive (and needed) output of words in the blogosphere on the topic of hell. I’ve been planning to write something myself (perhaps tomorrow morning). For now, this 8-minute excerpt from a message by R. C. Sproul is a sober reminder of the profound work Christ accomplished by […]

Read More Free audio book: The Holiness of GodR. C. Sproul has written what I have said many times in answering the objection that using the short-hand “X-mas” is not actually an attempt to remove Christ from the word “Christmas,” but is in fact part of an ancient tradition of Christians. First of all, you have to understand that it is not the […]
Read More Do we need to put Christ back into Christmas?One of the things I enjoy most about Tabletalk magazine is the articles that begin each issue. Arranged around one theme in each issue, these articles are always provocative — I may not always agree with the author, but they always make me think (and that’s good!). And now many of those articles have been […]
Read More Tabletalk archivesTwo quotes to stimulate your thinking as you contemplate the crucifixion of Christ on this Good Friday morning and His cry from the cross — “About the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, ‘ELI, ELI, LAMA SABACHTHANI?’ that is, ‘MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?’” (Mt. 27:46; NASB) […]
Read More The cry from the crossIn the past few years, I have found myself increasingly gravitating to books on the cross of Christ. One reason is that since I lead our church through communion each month, I need to read things that keep the truth of the cross fresh and exciting to me. But the most significant reason is that […]
