More quotes by R. C. Sproul
The more I learn about God, the more aware I become of what I don’t know about him.
R. C. Sproul
The whole basis for our relationship with God is rooted and grounded in grace, in that which is not earned.
R. C. Sproul
Without the gospel, a gathering of people, though they claim otherwise, cannot be an authentic church.
R. C. Sproul
I’ve often wondered where Jesus would apply His hastily made whip if He were to visit our culture. My guess is that it would not be money-changing tables in the temple that would feel His wrath, but the display racks in Christian bookstores.
R. C. Sproul
When God's justice falls, we are offended because we think God owes perpetual mercy. We must not take His grace for granted. We must never lose our capacity to be amazed by grace
R. C. Sproul

R. C. Sproul
Confession should be a daily activity for the Christian, whose entire pilgrimage is characterized by the spirit of repentance.

The presumptuous sin of Uzzah was that He assumed his hands were less polluted than the dirt.
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
If the being of God ceased for one second, the universe would disappear.
R. C. Sproul
Doctrine does matter.
R. C. Sproul

R. C. Sproul
Heaven is a place where God will personally wipe away our tears.
R. C. Sproul
It is fashionable in some academic circles to exercise scholarly criticism of the Bible. In so doing, scholars place themselves above the Bible and seek to correct it. If indeed the Bible is the Word of God, nothing could be more arrogant. It is God who corrects us we don’t correct Him. We do not stand over God but under Him.
R. C. Sproul
If Christ could make a complaint, it would be, My bride never talks to me.
R. C. Sproul
The resurrection was God the Father's way of authenticating all of the truths that were declared by Jesus.
R. C. Sproul
It is the Holy Spirit who inspired the Bible. It is the Holy Spirit who illumines the Bible.
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
I get irritated when I hear preachers say, Come to Jesus and all your problems will be over. That's just simply a lie.
R. C. Sproul
Not until we take God seriously will we ever take sin seriously.
