- If we want to be an effective witness to our neighbors, it’s important that we understand the different worldviews and belief systems that surround us. In this message, R.C. Sproul walks us through the dominant perspectives that fall under the umbrella of secularism, addressing the dramatic differences between this worldview and the Christian faith.
This message is from Dr. Sproul’s 12-part teaching series Christian Worldview. Learn more: www.ligonier.org/learn/series...
This man was brilliant - thoughtfully brilliant.
Isn’t the baptist church restorationist when you think about it?
17 And Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. 18 And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”
-Matthew 16:17-19
The Church didn’t disappear
And you will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. -Jeremiah 29:13
“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life. - John 3:16
Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out.
- Acts 3:19
If you’re in North America, please go check out any of the churches available to you: PCA, OPC, Rpcna/Rpc, Urcna, or a canrc church
(These are conservative and actual Presbyterian churches)
If you can’t find one of the conservative presby churches then, maybe a Lcms Lutheran church.
If you are Scottish, I recommend the Free Church of Scotland and the APC.
(Different from the Church of Scotland)
If you’re English I recommend the Evangelical Presbyterian Church in England & Wales and the Free Church of England
(Different from the Church of England)
Also online you can look up church finders for each of the groups, it will show you locations

Thank you for posting these sermons. They are timeless because the Word of God is timeless.

This is wonderful. I suspect this lecture was given 40 or 50 years ago, yet it is so important. The only difference today is that, with discernment, one can see the evil that this secularism has helped bring about.
God bless you for this wonderful ministry.
Amen

"Right now counts forever" R.C: Sproul
I learn so much from RC still
This without doubt is awesome!!
Thank you for posting this .
Excellent teaching by the late Dr R.C. Sproul. 🙂
This video and series are very helpful when engaging with others.
Thank you.
very comprehensive from - one of my favorite preachers
😮 “Yolo” was a secularism saying...”here and now” packaged differently..🤯
Wonderful session here
Thank you

The provided link only takes one to the exact same video and not the series.
I find Dr. Sproul focusing way too much on Natural theology, its gets tiring. But I thank God for him. Bless you brother in Christ.
Reminds me of the schema that Aaron Renn uses (positive world/negative world)
If by his opening statement Sproul means that weery Christian is called to bear witness to Christ in everyday life per I Peter 3:15, I agree. But there is a particular office of evangelist that is for called men and not for all Christians.
I appreciate much of Sproul’s teaching, even though I am no longer Calvinist. But sometimes even the confessional Calvinists seem to lose sight of the doctrine of the Office of the Ministry, and they forget that not all clerical duties and office tasks apply to the laymen.
You can't help seeing it in advertising. You don't need to 'look for it'.
Exactly!
I wonder what Christ and the Apostles would say to the statement that it is not enough to know the Scriptures inside and out, but most also know the culture to which you are sent for missions.
It seems very reasonable to know and understand that culture in order to contrast and reveal both Christ crucified and worldly thought destroys.
Every human being is a missionary of Lord Jesus Christ or Satan. There is no middle ground!
BABYLON- the overhead for all
“And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, BABYLON the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.”
Revelations 18:2
Calvinism is a stumbling block to many....
to me also.
So is free will
What a shame. The most poignant words on living beyond the NOW and this has a few thousand views. Yet a skanky Cardy B (can't spell it but heard of her) or anyone else in that universe, distracts with millions of views. Help our perspective Lord. Bless the legacy of RC.
Be careful of sproul they said
There is no god.
Why are you still bothering then?
Because you are absolutely aware of those verses and being convicted of those verses as well:
12 All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law. 13 For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous. 14 (Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts sometimes accusing them and at other times even defending them.) 16 This will take place on the day when God judges people’s secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares. (Romans 2:12-16)
Whoever breaks one commandment is guilty of breaking them all. For the same one who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not commit murder.” Even if you do not commit adultery, you have become a lawbreaker if you commit murder. (James 2:10-26)
You cannot go further when you eventually become honest to yourself...
This is too high for me to understand 🥲 i wish i am 1%of RC mind
