The Journey to Mount Moriah
from R.C. Sproul Nov 01, 2010 Category: R.C. Sproul
I find it difficult, if not impossible, to get inside the head of Abraham on his journey to Mount Moriah. I have never had the experience of being called to slay my son for the glory of God. The closest thing to it in my own experience pales into insignificance by comparison. It occurred not with my son, but with my dog. Keep Reading -

Understanding Our Pilgrimage
from R.C. Sproul Oct 24, 2010 Category: R.C. Sproul
Resting within the shadow of the Statue of Liberty, the small piece of real estate known as Ellis Island has become a symbol of American history. There, immigrants assembled on arrival to this nation. They came from many places for many different reasons.

Awaiting the City of God
from R.C. Sproul Oct 17, 2010 Category: R.C. Sproul
Evangelical Christians love America. Some see in her the last hope of creating a Christian nation. But it is not a Christian nation. It is pagan to the core. It is in danger of becoming, if it is not already, the new “Evil Empire.” The Mayflower Compact is a museum piece, a relic of a forgotten era. “In God We Trust” is now a lie. Keep Reading -

Augustine stood by the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. He had heard of the hordes of barbarians that were moving as a juggernaut against Rome and the empire. The reports were ominous and foreboding, lending little reason for hope of the survival of the Roman culture. Keep Reading -

Justification by Death?
from R.C. Sproul Oct 06, 2010 Category: Tabletalk Magazine
In this article from the current issue of Tabletalk, R.C. Sproul deals with one of the most pervasive false views of justification--that justification comes by death. "It is an implicit universalism that assumes everyone goes to heaven when he or she dies. Perhaps the most rank evildoers, such as Adolf Hitler or Joseph Stalin, may not make it, but the average person certainly has nothing to worry about." Keep Reading -

from R.C. Sproul Oct 03, 2010 Category: R.C. Sproul
Here is a suggestion on a brief but important exercise: "For a little fun, as well as an important look into the pages of your history, take a few minutes for a simple exercise. Take a pencil and paper and jot down the five most meaningful compliments you’ve ever received. They may have been verbal or nonverbal, direct or indirect." Read why Dr. Sproul suggests you do this.
