More quotes by R. C. Sproul
The gospel is only good news when we understand the bad news.
R. C. Sproul
God wants your life. Not one hour a week, not 10% of your income, He wants you.
R. C. Sproul
But the blessing Christ promised, the blessing of great reward, is a reward of grace. The blessing is promised even though it is not earned. Augustine said it this way: Our rewards in heaven are a result of God's crowning His own gifts.
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
Not until we take God seriously will we ever take sin seriously.
R. C. Sproul
If ever there were a time there was nothing, there would be nothing now.
R. C. Sproul
God is the foundation of all authority, He exercises that foundation because He is the author and the owner of His creation. He is the foundation upon which all other authority stands or falls.
R. C. Sproul
God doesn't need our consent in order to govern us He made us.
R. C. Sproul
Your personal testimony, however meaningful it is to you, is not the gospel.
R. C. Sproul
We are not doomed to an ultimate conflict with no hope of resolution. The message of the Scripture is one of victory - full, final and ultimate victory. It is not our doom that is certain, but Satan's. His head has been crushed by the heel of Christ, who is the Alpha and Omega.
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 very heart of worship, as the Bible makes clear, is the business of expressing, from the depths of our spirits, the highest possible honor we can offer before God.
R. C. Sproul
There is nothing in this universe you need more desperately than Christ.
R. C. Sproul
The Bible never tells us to take a blind leap of faith into the darkness and hope that there's somebody out there. The Bible calls us to jump out of the darkness and into the light. That is not a blind leap. The faith that the New Testament calls us to is a faith rooted and grounded in something that God makes clear is the truth.
R. C. Sproul
The sin of fallen man is this: Man seeks the benefits of God while at the same time fleeing from God Himself.
R. C. Sproul
What higher approval could a person enjoy than to know that what he or she has done is pleasing to God?
R. C. Sproul
Doctrine divides, but doctrine also unites. It binds together the hearts of God's people who celebrate the truth of God together.
R. C. Sproul
Preachers must always fight the temptation to preach anything but Christ and Him crucified.
R. C. Sproul
Sin can bring pleasure, but never happiness.
R. C. Sproul
Satan can do only what the sovereign God allows him to do.
