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.

More quotes by 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
We experience the grace of an infinite God, but grace is not infinite.
R. C. Sproul
God doesn't need our consent in order to govern us He made us.
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
The world is filled with God's glory. You can't turn without bumping into it.
R. C. Sproul
The most obscene symbol in human history is the Cross yet in its ugliness it remains the most eloquent testimony to human dignity.
R. C. Sproul
Holiness provokes hatred. The greater the holiness, the greater the human hostility toward it. It seems insane. No man was ever more loving than Jesus Christ. Yet even His love made people angry. His love was a perfect love, a transcendent and holy love, but HIs very love brought trauma to people. This kind of love is so majestic we can't stand it.
R. C. Sproul
The only reason why I'm a Christian is because I'm a gift of the Father to the Son, not because of anything I've ever done.
R. C. Sproul
If it were left to us, we would all fall away from the faith and perish.
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
Confession should be a daily activity for the Christian, whose entire pilgrimage is characterized by the spirit of repentance.
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
There is not one piece of cosmic dust that is outside the scope of God's sovereign providence.
R. C. Sproul
Burning hearts are not nourished by empty heads
R. C. Sproul
When one encounters truth, one encounters the God whose truth it is.
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
Heaven is a place where God will personally wipe away our tears.
R. C. Sproul
The Word of God can be in the mind without being in the heart but it cannot be in the heart without first being in the mind.
R. C. Sproul
Sin can bring pleasure, but never happiness.
R. C. Sproul
There are many today who believe that there are people running around this world right now who are performing greater miracles, performing miracles in greater abundance, and actually doing more incredible acts of divine healing than Jesus himself did. I can't think of any more serious delusion than that.
