More quotes by R. C. Sproul
God's grace is not infinite. God is infinite, and God is gracious.
R. C. Sproul
If I know anything about the character of God after fifty years of ministry, I know that God hates abortion.
R. C. Sproul
God’s grace is not infinite. God is infinite, and God is gracious. We experience the grace of an infinite God, but grace is not infinite. God sets limits to His patience and forbearance. He warns us over and over again that someday the ax will fall and His judgment will be poured out.
R. C. Sproul
Advice to aspiring ministers: Get in the Word. Stay in the Word. Master the Word. And for heaven's sake, preach the Word!
R. C. Sproul
Men and women who refuse to acknowledge God's existence do so, in the final analysis, because it is contrary to their manner of living. They do not want to bow to the moral claims of a holy God on their lives.
R. C. Sproul
Though sin often brings immediate pleasure, it gives no lasting joy.
R. C. Sproul
Whenever I read the psalms, I feel like I am eavesdropping on a saint having a personal conversation with God.
R. C. Sproul
If you don’t delight in the fact that your Father is holy, holy, holy, then you are spiritually dead. You may be in a church. You may go to a Christian school. But if there is no delight in your soul for the holiness of God, you don’t know God. You don’t love God. You’re out of touch with God. You’re asleep to his character.
R. C. Sproul
Jesus' life was a storm of controversy. The apostles, like the prophets before them, could hardly go a day without controversy. Paul said that he debated daily in the marketplace. To avoid controversy is to avoid Christ. We can have peace, but it is a servile and carnal peace where truth is slain in the streets.
R. C. Sproul
The atonement is a multifaceted event-Jesus is shown providing surety for our debt to God, mediating the enmity between us and God, and offering Himself as a substitute to suffer God's judgment in our place.
R. C. Sproul
The issue of faith is not so much whether we believe in God, but whether we believe the God we believe in. (p.35)
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
The gospel is the proclamation of the person and work of Jesus Christ and how those benefits can be applied to us by faith alone.
R. C. Sproul
The only works of righteousness that serve to justify a sinner are the works of Christ.
R. C. Sproul
Preachers must always fight the temptation to preach anything but Christ and Him crucified.
R. C. Sproul
If the God you believe in is not a sovereign God, then you really don't believe in God.
R. C. Sproul
The only righteousness that meets the requirements of the Law is the righteousness of Christ.
R. C. Sproul
The great misconception in our day is this: that God isn´t concerned to protect His own integrity. He´s a kind of wishy-washy deity, who just waves a wand of forgiveness over everybody. No. For God to forgive you is a very costly matter.
R. C. Sproul
If ever there were a time there was nothing, there would be nothing now.
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.
