Townhall Review | Conservative Commentary On Today's NewsAlbert Mohler: RC Sproul 1939 - 2017
On Thursday December 14th, R.C. Sproul met his Savior, Jesus Christ, face to face.
My own pilgrimage as a theologian cannot be traced without the indelible influence of R.C. Sproul. He was one of the great defenders of historic Christianity of our times. It is fair to say that R.C. was the greatest and most influential proponent of the recovery of Reformed theology in the last century. He was a stalwart defender of the Word of God, and one of the primary architects of the Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy in 1978.
In a tribute to his own beloved teacher, Professor John Gerstner, written in 1976, R.C. stated: “In an era of church history when theology is in chaos, the church is being shaken at its foundations, and Christian ethics shift and slide with every novel theology, we are grateful for the vivid example of one who stands in the midst of confusion as ‘a bright and burning light.’”
Indeed, we are grateful to God for the bright and burning light named R. C. Sproul.
Soli Deo Gloria.
