Renewing Your Mind

R.C. Sproul

June 05, 2026

The existence of God is a question that has been debated for centuries, with various arguments for and against its existence. One approach to proving the existence of God is through the classical method, which involves establishing a sufficient reason to explain reality as we encounter it. This method involves looking at four possible explanations for reality: that our experience of reality is an illusion, that reality is self-created, that reality is self-existent, and that reality is created by something that is self-existent. The classical approach aims to provide a rational proof for the existence of a self-existent eternal being, rather than just evidence or persuasion. [... more]

The case for God's existence is a central theme in apologetics, with various approaches, including classical and presuppositional methods. Classical apologetics aims to prove God's existence through rational arguments, while presuppositional apologetics starts with the assumption of God's existence. The debate between these two approaches highlights the importance of establishing God's existence in the process of knowing. [... more]

Aquinas vs. Kant

Immanuel Kant's critique of traditional arguments for the existence of God challenged the notion that reason can prove God's existence, leading to a crisis in the Christian Church and a shift towards fideism. However, Christian philosophers and theologians have sought to reconstruct natural theology to answer Kant's objections, citing the Apostle Paul's declaration that the invisible things of God are known through the things that are made.

Gnosticism and Matter

The early church had to deal with the heresy of Gnosticism, which rejected the physical world and saw matter as inherently evil. Gnostics believed in a cosmology where God emanated from a higher spiritual realm, and the material world was a result of an intermediate creator. They also believed in a dualistic view of reality, separating spirit and matter. The Gnostics' view of Jesus was as a spiritual being who appeared in human form, but not as a physical person. This view was rejected by the early church, which saw it as fundamentally anti-Christian. [... more]

Gnosticism and Truth

The doctrine of election anchors our assurance of salvation in God's sovereign grace, and understanding the false teaching of Gnosticism is crucial for Christians today. Gnosticism involves a religion of redemption through gnosis or elite knowledge, rather than faith, and its influence can be seen in modern forms of eclecticism and syncretism. The church must be aware of the basic strains of historic Gnosticism and stay tied to the written word of God to avoid being carried away by feelings or so-called secret knowledge. [... more]

Grace Alone

The doctrine of sola gratia, or grace alone, is central to the Protestant Reformation, emphasizing that salvation is solely the work of God's grace in the soul. This concept is rooted in the teachings of Augustine, who argued that humanity's fallen nature renders us morally impotent, unable to choose the things of God without divine intervention. In contrast, semi-Pelagianism posits that human beings have the power to choose God, albeit with the assistance of God's grace. The Reformation's emphasis on sola gratia highlights the importance of divine initiative in salvation, underscoring that our salvation is not based on our own efforts or decisions, but rather on God's sovereign grace.

Preserved by God

The Bible teaches that God is able to keep us from stumbling and falling away from the faith, and that He will present us before His glory with great joy. This is a real-time assurance that doesn't matter when it is or where we are, and it's a reminder of our neediness and the total sufficiency of Jesus Christ. God is worthy of exclusive praise, highest praise, and unending praise, and He is the only God who is our Savior and worthy of praise for His glory, majesty, dominion, and authority. [... more]
