R. C. Sproul
Humanism was not invented by man, but by a snake who suggested that the quest for autonomy might be a good idea.
R. C. Sproul
Christ told his disciples not to be anxious about tomorrow, but he never said not to consider tomorrow. Intelligent problem solving demands careful consideration of the future effects of present solutions.
R. C. Sproul
When one encounters truth, one encounters the God whose truth it is.
R. C. Sproul
For the Arminian, salvation is possible for all but certain for none. In the Calvinist position, salvation is sure for God's elect.
R. C. Sproul
Even the slightest sin is an act of cosmic treason.
R. C. Sproul
God's grace is not infinite. God is infinite, and God is gracious.
R. C. Sproul
The world is filled with God's glory. You can't turn without bumping into it.
R. C. Sproul
Sin can bring pleasure, but never happiness.
R. C. Sproul
When God writes our names in the 'Lamb's Book of Life' He doesn't do it with an eraser handy. He does it for eternity.
