More quotes by 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
Only God can provide us with an eternal perspective and speak to us with absolute and final authority.
R. C. Sproul
Not until we take God seriously will we ever take sin seriously.
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
The only thing that we have earned at the hands of perfect justice is perfect punishment.
R. C. Sproul
God's grace is not infinite. God is infinite, and God is gracious.
R. C. Sproul
I do not want to drive across a bridge designed by an engineer who believed the numbers in structural stress models are relative truths.
R. C. Sproul
In His tender mercies, God has an incredible capacity to love the unlovely.
R. C. Sproul
Scripture does not say that God is 'love, love, love' or that He is 'wrath, wrath, wrath,' but that He is 'holy, holy, holy.'
R. C. Sproul
The only righteousness that meets the requirements of the Law is the righteousness of Christ.
R. C. Sproul
We take comfort, however, that mystery is not a synonym for contradiction.
R. C. Sproul
No Christian can avoid theology. Every Christian is a theologian. Perhaps not a theologian in the technical or professional sense, but a theologian nevertheless. The issue for Christians is not whether we are going to be theologians but whether we are going to be good theologians or bad ones.
R. C. Sproul
The supreme form of cursedness is for the Lord to turn His back on you and bring judgment on you.
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
It has been said by church historians that in those periods of Christian history where renewal, revival, and awakening took place and the church was at its strongest, that coincidental with those periods in church history, there was a strong focus on the psalms in the life of God's people-particularly in the worship of God's people.
R. C. Sproul
No one was ever called by God to greater suffering than God's only begotten Son.
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
For the Christian, every tragedy is ultimately a blessing, or God is a liar.
R. C. Sproul
Men and women who refuse to acknowledge God's existence do so, in the final analysis, because it is contrary to their manner of living. They do not want to bow to the moral claims of a holy God on their lives.
R. C. Sproul
Look to the Bible and not your feelings as the basis of the Christian life.
