R. C. Sproul
To be conformed to this world is to risk the loss of one’s eternal soul.
R. C. Sproul
Hope is called the anchor of the soul because it gives stability to the Christian life. But hope is not simply a 'wish' I wish that such-and-such would take place rather, it is that which latches on to the certainty of the promises of the future that God has made.
R. C. Sproul
