Here is the most recent video of Ask RC Sproul live:

http://www.ligonier.org/learn/conferences/ligonier_webcast_archive/ask-rc-live-july-2014/

Some good questions here:

In 1 Samuel 28, was Saul talking to the real Samuel or a demon impersonating Samuel? (03:10)

Should the atmosphere of a church be towards the Christian, or the non-Christian? (04:30)

What does “By His stripes we are healed” from Isaiah 53 mean for Christians today? Does it imply physical healing in the atonement? (05:15)

Since your conversion, what are one or two of the most memorable or significant spiritual experiences in your life? (08:45)

Who are your heroes of the faith? (10:23)

If Dr. Sproul were to nail a modern 95 Theses to the Wittenberg door today, what might be his top two to three issues for the church to address? (12:35)

How can we defend the doctrine of sola Scriptura using Scripture? (15:53)

How does the fact that all people know God, based on Romans 1:18, affect our defense of Christianity? (23:46)

In 2 Samuel 6 when King David got the ark back from Obed-edom he then put on an ephod and offered a sacrifice to God. Since he was not a priest, how was that acceptable to God? (29:51)

Does the casting of lots to make decisions still have a place today? (31:30)

Is there any evidence of Adam and Eve’s repentance and faith in Christ after the fall? (34:35)

Do you believe we’re living in the end times that we read about in the book of Revelation? (36:47) {I liked this as I am in agreement with RC on the dating of the book of the Apocalypse}

Dr. Sproul, you hold to what’s called a “partial preterist” view of eschatology, is that correct? (41:19)

How does “For many are called but few are chosen” (Matt. 22:14) fit in with unconditional election and irresistible grace? Is the definition of “called” different there then its use in Romans 8:30, “…those whom he called he also justified”? (46:43)

Do you agree with the phrase, “All Scripture is equally inspired, but not all Scripture is equally applicable.” (49:55)

How should the church react to its members who sanction homosexual marriage? (51:44)

Dr. Sproul, could you comment on the significance of ordinary means in our lives, particularly in light of the view that some people espouse that we just need to sit back and wait upon the Lord to do everything for us? (54:14)

Is there a biblical church history that we can follow back to the establishing of the church that does not have ties to Roman Catholicism? (63:45)

Why did Dr. Sproul write a children’s book on Martin Luther, and is he going to write any more? (66:46)

What is the Reformed view of vocation, and have you ever written a book on that? (68: 03)

To what was Jesus referring to when He said in John 3:5, “…unless one is born of water…”? (70:20)

How many days was Jesus in the grave, two or three? (71:24)

Is there any remnant of the image of God left in man? How does this relate to total depravity? (71:59)

Dr. Sproul, what is driving you in your ministry today? Why is the gospel, the holiness of God, and this ministry so important today? (74:10)

Looks good, I will watch this tomorrow.

I have met RC Sproul, he opened the door for me at one of his conferences...he is rather short! lol I always thought he was taller when I watched his videos.

Just a bit of useless trivia, but fun for me, nonetheless. :chuckle:

Sproul, is top of my list as one who teaches a mixture of error and truth, more error than truth. What I mean is, after one gets beyond him saying "Jesus saves", you're in trouble. No novice should listen to him. He is a bane to the cause of Christ one will readily recognize when seeking to know God..

Very disappointed in his response to that question, he completely neglected the Truth of it, which is, spiritual healing is meant thereby, the total salvation and conversion to all for whom He died. Its NT counterpart is found in 1 Pet 2:24-25

24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.

The word healed iaomai means:

I.
to cure, heal

II.
to make whole
A.
to free from errors and sins, to bring about (one's) salvation or conversion

Because by His stripes all sins have been remitted/forgiven, Spiritually Healing takes place restoring to fellowship and communion with God !

The Biblically challenged posts a video by the Biblically challenged. Pretty funny.

Might I be so bold as to say if one was to compare RC Sproul to any garden variety RC like yourself....He knows more Scripture than you do, hands down. You would know more man made traditions than he does, but Biblically challenged, he is not. Even if one does not agree with him doctrinally, he is more well versed in the Bible than most.

Well versed, you say?? Does that count for anything if he miss-uses it to support his screwed up thinking?

The thing is, I do not believe he does misuse the Scriptures...except when it comes to paedobaptism :think:

So, you are not doctrinally aligned with him. Move on.

Just finished watching it.
I love how RC Sproul speaks, how he thinks.
Truly an apologist.

Our church has a whole library of his dvds, and I have watched them all.
I used to get Tabletalk for years. I stopped maybe around 2010 to try something different. I just ordered it again.

Thank you so much for posting this, AMR!

I revel in the Doctrines of Grace!
If we delight in the Word of God, we cannot help but be full of joy in God's redemptive plan for the totally unable sinner, including God's unconditional choices of particular persons given to and for redemption by our Lord Jesus Christ; a redeemed whose eyes and hearts were overwhelmingly opened by the grace of the Holy Spirit such that they will continue in the faith to their final glory.

I am very pleased that it is God who is doing the choosing, for we are not fit to be our own choosers, in that when we get our own will, it has been our ruin (Psalm 78:29); and the best of the saints getting the reins of their destinies in their own hands, have set all on fire.

Kind words.

I have the Logos edition of most of Tabletalk and have subscribed for many years. I also give away many of his DVDs and particular books (Holiness of God, especially) yearly.

One resource highly recommended is Ligonier Connect: https://connect.ligonier.org/

For a paltry $9 a month you get access to a seminary's worth of courses: https://connect.ligonier.org/school/catalog/

The course handouts alone are worth the small monthly fee.

What/Who other than Sproul & co. who believe it is, makes you think God's grace, free?

Know this from the word of God: All God's gifts are in promise form. God says, "If you do this, I will do that. If you do that I will do this. From the beginning has this be so.

In 2 Samuel 6 when King David got the ark back from Obed-edom he then put on an ephod and offered a sacrifice to God. Since he was not a priest, how was that acceptable to God? (29:51)



Think about what the sacrifice means and what the ephod means.
