Publisher's summary

God gave us His Word so that we may know Him and live by His truth. So, what should we do when we’re reading the Bible and a difficult passage stops us in our tracks? Sometimes the solution is right there on the page—if we know where to look—while other passages gain clarity in light of the rest of the Bible or its historical background. With the help of an experienced guide, we can overcome the obstacles to our progress and know God’s Word more deeply.

In Hard Sayings, Dr. R.C. Sproul applies his wisdom as a theologian and Bible teacher to some of the most challenging verses in Scripture. By showing us how to navigate tough texts in the Old and New Testaments, he outlines key principles to help us grow in our knowledge of God.

Great verse selection

Great book lightning many difficult to understand passages. Highly recommend, thorough as only RC Sproul can articulate so well. The reader is hard to hear as the volume is high then he drops quiet. I listen while driving an he’s hard to hear a lot so I had to crank the volume

hard sayings indeed.

RC Sproul was an amazing theologian creature teacher etc. this book delivers the same force of reason and scripture and passion that RC shared in all other areas of life. it's definitely a good read the narrator does a fantastic job and even has a likeness to RC's voice although a little bit less wrathful sounding at times. LOL I highly recommend it.

Good on several points

An honest and biblical account of several different passages. Very easy to read and worth the time for the clarification it can provide.

Masterful Exposition

Sproul has done it again. Hard Sayings is a master class in biblical exposition and exegesis. In this book Sproul examines many of the hard passages in Scripture and provides a well balanced exegesis with a Reformed theological outlook. I thoroughly enjoyed this work.

The narrator also did a great job. There were quite a few times when I thought I was listening to RC himself.
