More quotes by R. C. Sproul
We are able to persevere only because God works within us, within our free wills. And because God is at work in us, we are certain to persevere. The decrees of God concerning election are immutable. They do not change, because He does not change. All whom He justifies He glorifies. None of the elect has ever been lost.
R. C. Sproul
We live in a time of crisis in the secular culture and in the church with regard to the beautiful.
R. C. Sproul
No sinner has the right to say with impunity, 'God you owe me grace.' If grace is owed, it is not grace. The very essence of grace is its voluntary character. God reserves to himself the sovereign, absolute right to give grace to some and withhold that grace from others.
R. C. Sproul
There is not one piece of cosmic dust that is outside the scope of God's sovereign providence.
R. C. Sproul
There is nothing in this universe you need more desperately than Christ.
R. C. Sproul
This little expression, 'It doesn't matter what you believe as long as you're sincere,' is a monstrous lie.
R. C. Sproul
It is important that when we are engaged in admonition or exhortation or confrontation with a brother who is overcome in sin, we call attention to the truth in an extraordinarily compassionate and tender and loving spirit.
R. C. Sproul
God wants your life. Not one hour a week, not 10% of your income, He wants you.
R. C. Sproul
When one encounters truth, one encounters the God whose truth it is.
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.
R. C. Sproul
The only thing that we have earned at the hands of perfect justice is perfect punishment.
R. C. Sproul
In Christian marriage, love is not an option. It is a duty.
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 moment we think we deserve mercy a little alarm bell should go off in our head because we are not talking about mercy anymore but justice.
R. C. Sproul
Nothing could be more irrational than the idea that something comes from nothing.
R. C. Sproul
Unbelievers can tolerate Christ only as long as He is stripped of His real identity.
R. C. Sproul
Every sin is an act of cosmic treason, a futile attempt to dethrone God in His sovereign authority.
R. C. Sproul
Dead men do not cooperate with grace. Unless regeneration takes place first, there is no possibility of faith.
R. C. Sproul
The one place where the Christian can be naked without fear is in the presence of Christ.
R. C. Sproul
The atonement is a multifaceted event-Jesus is shown providing surety for our debt to God, mediating the enmity between us and God, and offering Himself as a substitute to suffer God's judgment in our place.
