Husbands, Part 2

A Broadcast with R.C. Sproul Jr.

Dr. Sproul tells husbands to remember the obvious: "You're not Jesus, and, in fact, you need Jesus." He belabors this simple truth, because a husband can all too easily place himself on the same level as Christ. A husband certainly has the call to love, sanctify, and exercise authority as Christ does (Eph. 5). However, sin causes the parallel to break down, while the call to be like Him remains. This lesson, then, focuses on the duties of husbands to emulate Christ in His threefold office (munus triplex) of prophet, priest, and king.

Our Aim

God calls His people to be transformed by the renewing of their minds. This transformation of thinking God’s thoughts after Him is a daily pursuit. To aid you in this, Renewing Your Mind broadcasts a daily message and related resource offer that exposits the glories of God revealed in the Bible against the backdrop of culture, philosophy, apologetics, ethics, and church history. Think of it as bridging the gap between Sunday school and seminary—equipping you for the Christian life.
