R. C. Sproul
The grand difference between a human being and a Supreme being is precisely this: Apart from God I cannot exist apart from me God does exist. God does not need me in order for Him to be. I do need God in order for me to be. We are dependent. We are fragile. This is how we differ from God.
R. C. Sproul

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
At the moment I sin, I desire the sin more than I desire to please God.
R. C. Sproul

R. C. Sproul
Christ told his disciples not to be anxious about tomorrow, but he never said not to consider tomorrow. Intelligent problem solving demands careful consideration of the future effects of present solutions.
R. C. Sproul
If there ever was a time when absolutely nothing existed, all there could possibly be now is nothing.
R. C. Sproul
One might pray and not be a Christian, but one cannot be a Christian and not pray.
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
What higher approval could a person enjoy than to know that what he or she has done is pleasing to God?
R. C. Sproul
God is serious about how we worship Him, and we must be serious about it, too.
