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.

If Christ could make a complaint, it would be, My bride never talks to me.
R. C. Sproul
God just doesn't throw a life preserver to a drowning person. He goes to the bottom of the sea, and pulls a corpse from the bottom of the sea, takes him up on the bank, breathes into him the breath of life and makes him alive.
R. C. Sproul
I’ve often wondered where Jesus would apply His hastily made whip if He were to visit our culture. My guess is that it would not be money-changing tables in the temple that would feel His wrath, but the display racks in Christian bookstores.
R. C. Sproul
The Advent season is that time when we seek to, in a manner of speaking, mute our memory of what has already happened, that we might brighten our joy that it happened. We leave the already of His advent to taste the bitter of the not yet. We, in short, go back, that we might look forward to His coming.
R. C. Sproul
By His life, death, and resurrection, our Savior has conquered our enemies, and by His Spirit He has granted us to share in the victory.
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
If it were left to us, we would all fall away from the faith and perish.
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
We live in age of compromise, but if we stand on the bedrock of God’s truth, we will not bend with the winds of relativism and faithlessness.
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
The house that is built upon the sand will crumble at the first sign of a windstorm.
R. C. Sproul
A holy God is both just and merciful. He is never unjust.
R. C. Sproul
The Bible alone is the only authority that can bind the conscience of a person absolutely because it is the only authority that carries with it the intrinsic authority of God Himself.
R. C. Sproul
The failure of modern evangelicalism is the failure to understand the holiness of God.
R. C. Sproul
The fundamental loss of a desire for God is the heart of original sin.
R. C. Sproul
The grounds of your justification are the perfect works of Jesus Christ. We're saved by works, but they're not our own.
R. C. Sproul
If you don't know you're in a state of grace, then you're vulnerable to the paralysis of the accusations of the enemy.
R. C. Sproul
The only works of righteousness that serve to justify a sinner are the works of Christ.
R. C. Sproul
Not until we take God seriously will we ever take sin seriously.
R. C. Sproul
God is the foundation of all authority, He exercises that foundation because He is the author and the owner of His creation. He is the foundation upon which all other authority stands or falls.
