The Hardening of Pharaoh's Heart

A Broadcast with R.C. Sproul

The Scriptures make it clear: God hardened Pharaoh's heart. Pharaoh was punished for his wickedness towards the Israelites and his disobedience to God. But is that fair? Was God being unjust towards Pharaoh since God was the one who hardened Pharaoh's heart? Did God create evil in the heart of Pharaoh? In this message, Dr. Sproul examines this question as he helps us understand the nature of wickedness in the heart of man and God's just dealings with creatures who refuse to obey Him.

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.
