The very heart of worship, as the Bible makes clear, is the business of expressing, from the depths of our spirits, the highest possible honor we can offer before God.

More quotes by R. C. Sproul
We live in a time of crisis in the secular culture and in the church with regard to the beautiful.
R. C. Sproul
At the moment I sin, I desire the sin more than I desire to please God.
R. C. Sproul
God’s grace is not infinite. God is infinite, and God is gracious. We experience the grace of an infinite God, but grace is not infinite. God sets limits to His patience and forbearance. He warns us over and over again that someday the ax will fall and His judgment will be poured out.
R. C. Sproul
Christ exposed Himself not only to the unbridled hostility of angry men, but, more significantly, to the unmitigated wrath of God.
R. C. Sproul
The only freedom that man ever has is when he becomes a slave to Jesus Christ.
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
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
For the Arminian, salvation is possible for all but certain for none. In the Calvinist position, salvation is sure for God's elect.
R. C. Sproul
Preachers must always fight the temptation to preach anything but Christ and Him crucified.
R. C. Sproul
The presumptuous sin of Uzzah was that He assumed his hands were less polluted than the dirt.
R. C. Sproul
No sinner has the right to say with impunity, 'God you owe me grace.' If grace is owed, it is not grace. The very essence of grace is its voluntary character. God reserves to himself the sovereign, absolute right to give grace to some and withhold that grace from others.
R. C. Sproul
If ever there were a time there was nothing, there would be nothing now.
R. C. Sproul
We do not segment our lives, giving some time to God, some to our business or schooling, while keeping parts to ourselves. The idea is to live all of our lives in the presence of God, under the authority of God, and for the honor and glory of God. That is what the Christian life is all about.
R. C. Sproul
It's not the wickedness of the pagan that breaks my heart. It's the compromise of the Christian that grieves my soul.
R. C. Sproul
There's probably no concept in theology more repugnant to modern America than the idea of divine wrath.
R. C. Sproul
God not only initiated my salvation, He not only sowed the seed, but He made sure that that seed germinated in my heart by regenerating me by the power of the Holy Ghost.
R. C. Sproul
We are cosmic traitors. We must recognize this problem within ourselves if we are to grasp the necessity of the cross.
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
Sin is not simply making bad choices or mistakes. Sin is having the desire in our hearts to do the will of the enemy of God.
R. C. Sproul
The more seriously we understand the radical nature of sin, the more it exercises a restraint upon us.
