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.

We are puzzled and bewildered whenever we see suffering in this world because we have become accustomed to the mercy and the long-suffering of God. Amazing grace is no longer amazing to us.
R. C. Sproul
Sin can bring pleasure, but never happiness.
