More quotes by 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
A married person does not live in isolation. He or she has made a promise, a pledge, a vow, to another person. Until that vow is fulfilled and the promise is kept, the individual is in debt to his marriage partner. That is what he owes. 'You owe it to yourself' is not a valid excuse for breaking a marriage vow but a creed of selfishness.
R. C. Sproul
Sin can bring pleasure, but never happiness.
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
The Bible's truth does not depend in any way on whether or not a person believes the truth.
R. C. Sproul
The only works of righteousness that serve to justify a sinner are the works of Christ.
R. C. Sproul
There’s a long and sacred history of the use of X to symbolize the name of Christ, and from its origin, it has meant no disrespect.
R. C. Sproul
Dead men do not cooperate with grace. Unless regeneration takes place first, there is no possibility of faith.
R. C. Sproul
Sin is not simply making bad choices or mistakes. Sin is having the desire in our hearts to do the will of the enemy of God.
R. C. Sproul
We have to determine our theology from the Word of God, not from what we feel.
R. C. Sproul
We are puzzled and bewildered whenever we see suffering in this world because we have become accustomed to the mercy and the long-suffering of God. Amazing grace is no longer amazing to us.
R. C. Sproul
When we behold the face of God, all memories of pain and suffering will vanish. Our souls shall be totally healed.
R. C. Sproul
Without the gospel, a gathering of people, though they claim otherwise, cannot be an authentic church.
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
When one encounters truth, one encounters the God whose truth it is.
R. C. Sproul
It's dangerous to assume that because a man is drawn to holiness in his study that he is thereby a holy man. I am sure that the reason that I have a deep hunger to learn of the holiness of God is precisely because I am not holy.
R. C. Sproul
Christ is still in Christmas, and for one brief season the secular world broadcasts the message of Christ over every radio station and television channel in the land. Never does the church get as much free air time as during the Christmas season.
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
I had actually gone to a church-related college, but I went on a football scholarship, not because of any interest in the church.
R. C. Sproul
It is one thing to believe in God it is quite another to believe God.
