Will Sin Go Unpunished?
from R.C. Sproul Mar 07, 2011 Category: R.C. Sproul
All things being equal, God does desire that no one should perish. But all things are not equal. Sin is real. Sin violates God’s holiness and righteousness.

from R.C. Sproul Feb 16, 2011 Category: R.C. Sproul

But bread was a staple in the diet of the Jews, and had been so for many years. Furthermore, bread was a powerful symbol of God’s provision for His people in the Old Testament.

Priorities
from R.C. Sproul Jan 24, 2011 Category: R.C. Sproul
When I first became a Christian I was introduced to the priorities of the Christian community.
