Dust to Glory

The period between the Old Testament and the New Testament is one of the most overlooked eras of biblical history. During that era, Aristotle developed his system of thought and logic that are still with us today, and his most famous student, Alexander the Great, laid the groundwork for the New Testament to be written. In this message, Dr. Sproul examines this intriguing time of biblical history, focusing on the coming of Christ.

The Old Testament reverberated with the theme of the coming Day of the Lord. Like many prophets before him, John the Baptist preached about it, too. What was significant about John’s message was that, unlike the prophets of old, he did not talk about the “coming” of that great and awesome day. What was different about John’s message of the coming day? Considering the preparations God has made in order to bring us our King, Dr. Sproul looks at the life and ministry of John the Baptist.

If it were left up to you, what would your plan of redemption look like? Would you send your son into the world as a baby? Would you send him at all? In preparation for the Advent season, Dr. Sproul considers the gracious gift the Father has given to us, as he looks at “The Birth of Jesus.”

The Bible does not record much of what happened in the early years of Jesus’ life. Because of this, many have attempted to fill in the gaps between His birth and His baptism by John. Although the Gospels do not record much in terms of the amount of biblical data, what it is recorded speaks volumes about the vocation and mission of Jesus. In this message, Dr. Sproul discusses this as he visits with Mary and Joseph at the Temple, looking at “The Early Years of Jesus’ Life.”

Interpreting Parables

The Cross

The apostle Paul, suffered extraordinary levels of peril, was arrested many times and had a prison record that was certainly unenviable. At some point during these imprisonments, he wrote four very significant letters that are called the “Prison Epistles of Paul”. The Prison Epistles include the epistle to the Philippians, the letter to the Colossians, the letter to the Ephesians and then the brief letter to Philemon. Dr. Sproul leads us in an introduction and brief overview to these four letters.
