More quotes by R. C. Sproul
No Christian can avoid theology. Every Christian is a theologian. Perhaps not a theologian in the technical or professional sense, but a theologian nevertheless. The issue for Christians is not whether we are going to be theologians but whether we are going to be good theologians or bad ones.
R. C. Sproul
Dead men do not cooperate with grace. Unless regeneration takes place first, there is no possibility of faith.
R. C. Sproul
The failure of modern evangelicalism is the failure to understand the holiness of God.
R. C. Sproul
In Christian marriage, love is not an option. It is a duty.
R. C. Sproul
The supreme form of cursedness is for the Lord to turn His back on you and bring judgment on you.
R. C. Sproul
We prefer the shadows where we feel safe over the light which exposes us and causes us to say 'woe is me!'
R. C. Sproul
Your personal testimony, however meaningful it is to you, is not the gospel.

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
For a Christian to be a Christian, he must first be a sinner. Being a sinner is a prerequisite for being a church member. The Christian church is one of the few organizations in the world that requires a public acknowledgement of sin as a condition for membership.
R. C. Sproul
If there ever was a time when absolutely nothing existed, all there could possibly be now is nothing.
R. C. Sproul
Disciples of Christ abide in His Word. Those who abide in His Word know the truth and are free.
R. C. Sproul
We are secure, not because we hold tightly to Jesus, but because He holds tightly to us.
R. C. Sproul
Anyone who takes his faith seriously and speaks in behalf of Christ and His kingdom will be accused of fanaticism at some point.
R. C. Sproul
We experience the grace of an infinite God, but grace is not infinite.
R. C. Sproul
When God's justice falls, we are offended because we think God owes perpetual mercy. We must not take His grace for granted. We must never lose our capacity to be amazed by grace
R. C. Sproul
If it were left to us, we would all fall away from the faith and perish.
R. C. Sproul
We live in a time of crisis in the secular culture and in the church with regard to the beautiful.
R. C. Sproul
If the being of God ceased for one second, the universe would disappear.
R. C. Sproul
