More quotes by R. C. Sproul
If ever there were a time there was nothing, there would be nothing now.
R. C. Sproul
Though sin often brings immediate pleasure, it gives no lasting joy.
R. C. Sproul
We prefer the shadows where we feel safe over the light which exposes us and causes us to say 'woe is me!'
R. C. Sproul
God is not blind neither is He capricious. For Him there are no accidents. With God there are no cases of chance events.
R. C. Sproul
Anyone who takes his faith seriously and speaks in behalf of Christ and His kingdom will be accused of fanaticism at some point.
R. C. Sproul
Unbelievers can tolerate Christ only as long as He is stripped of His real identity.
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
Was Luther crazy? Perhaps. But if he was, our prayer is that God would send to this earth an epidemic of such insanity that we too may taste of the righteousness that is by faith alone.
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
In every age the church is threatened by heresy, and heresy is bound up in false doctrine. It is the desire of all heretics to minimize the importance of doctrine. When doctrine is minimized, heresy can exercise itself without restraint.
R. C. Sproul
No one was ever called by God to greater suffering than God's only begotten Son.
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
Isn't is amazing that almost everyone has an opinion to offer about the Bible, and yet so few have studied it?
R. C. Sproul
For a work to be considered good it must not only conform outwardly to the law of God, but it must be motivated inwardly by a sincere love for God.
R. C. Sproul
It's easy to be an educated fool.
R. C. Sproul
Man’s will is free to follow his inclinations, but fallen man’s inclinations are always and invariably away from God.
R. C. Sproul
I had actually gone to a church-related college, but I went on a football scholarship, not because of any interest in the church.
R. C. Sproul
Mindless Christianity is no Christianity at all. You can't love what you don't know.
R. C. Sproul
Prayer is to the Christian what breath is to life, yet no duty of the Christian is so neglected.
R. C. Sproul
I rest solely in His righteousness and in His atonement because I know there is nothing I can do to make up for my own iniquity.
R. C. Sproul
