Ask R.C. Live (Part 1)

I have long been an admirer of Dr. R. C. Sproul as an author, a theologian, an expert communicator and as a man.

One of the things I so appreciate is Dr. Sproul’s ability to teach complex theological issues in a way that can be understood by all, and yet to do so without distortion. A testimony to that is the fact that, as far as I know, he is the only major Christian theologian in our day who has a national and international radio program (called Renewing the Mind).

Tuesday, November 30, 2010, marked the first official session of Ask R.C. Live, a special event where Dr. Sproul answers questions from an online audience. Students were able to submit their questions via Facebook and Twitter leading up to and during this 45-minute session. The questions included:

Being reformed and committed to the doctrine of God’s Sovereignty, why is it that the vast majority of Christians in our day seem more influenced by an Arminian theology?

Does God have two wills?

Do we violate the second commandment when we make images of Christ?

What is the biblical way to leave a Church? What doctrinal issues would rise to the level of making it prudent or even necessary to do so?

What are the means by which your writing and communication skills have been shaped?

How can I be sure of my salvation?

What is the official stance of the Roman Catholic Church concerning justification (and where can I find it)?

Should women be ordained or have governing authority in the Church?

Enjoy Dr. Sproul as he answers these questions in this video:
