I’ll admit it — I have a man-crush on RC Sproul. What an awesome teacher! Last week RC took on a favourite hot-topic among Christians – predestination. Every time I have an Ask The Pastor night this question comes up over and over. It is clearly close to people’s hearts and people want a good answer. Maybe you avoid the issue because you think there isn’t a good answer. I believe everyone needs to understand the doctrine of predestination and I want to point you at the best teacher I know who can explain it.
In RC’s words:
“The doctrine of Predestination is so profoundly important to the complete perspectives that we have, in terms of our relationship to God and to our salvation, that it would be a matter of wicked neglect to ignore or to denigrate in any way the importance of this doctrine.”
1. The Inevitable Question - ”Would it be an exaggeration to say that the doctrine of predestination is at the core of the Christian faith?”
2. What is Predestination? - ”With all of the disagreement and controversy surrounding predestination in the church, is there common ground on which we can all stand together?”
3. The Golden Chain - ”How many weak links do you need before the chain breaks? Dr. Sproul exposes the weak link in the “Golden Chain” of the prescient view of predestination.”
4. The Divine Choice - ”Why are you a Christian? Is it because you chose to be one? Where was God in that decision? Dr. Sproul discusses the basis upon which God chooses.”
