El Dios bíblico, si es verdadero, tiene que ser Soberano—sobre todas las cosas, sobre todos los eventos y circunstancias, sobre todas las decisiones del mundo. Si es verdadero Dios, entonces es Él que escoge quién ha de ir al cielo y quién no.
La predestinación no es sólo para los calvinistas, dice Sproul, sino para todos los cristianos bíblicos. Esto no crea un concepto caprichoso o tiránico de Dios, sino que le presenta como el Dios amoroso...

Today, Martin Luther is known as the man who stood against popes and emperors in defense of the gospel. What drove this lone German monk to defy the Roman Catholic Church? It wasn't arrogance or ignorance. Luther knew what it meant to live in the darkness of unresolved guilt. Once he discovered that his acceptance before God is a gift received by faith alone in the merits of Christ alone, Luther was set free, and he would not rest until the light...

The gospel has come under attack since the days of the Apostles. In first-century Galatia, false teachers were creeping into churches and convincing Christians that they had to keep the law of Moses to be saved. To call these churches back from the brink of destruction, the Apostle Paul wrote what is likely his earliest letter: an unyielding defense of God's saving grace in Jesus Christ. In this volume, Dr. R.C. Sproul guides us through Paul's passionate...

Have you ever been asked by a stranger, "Are you saved?" Many Christians use this question as an opportunity to tell someone about Jesus. But a common response to that question might catch us off guard: "Saved from what?" Until this essential question can be answered, we won't be able to make sense of Christ's sacrifice or explain it to others.
In Saved from What?, Dr. R.C. Sproul reveals that the greatest danger we face is the holy wrath of God...
