It's dangerous to assume that because a man is drawn to holiness in his study that he is thereby a holy man. I am sure that the reason that I have a deep hunger to learn of the holiness of God is precisely because I am not holy.

More quotes by R. C. Sproul
Mindless Christianity is no Christianity at all. You can't love what you don't know.
R. C. Sproul
Doctrine does matter.
R. C. Sproul
The resurrection was God the Father's way of authenticating all of the truths that were declared by Jesus.
R. C. Sproul

R. C. Sproul
In Christian marriage, love is not an option. It is a duty.

R. C. Sproul
The presumptuous sin of Uzzah was that He assumed his hands were less polluted than the dirt.
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
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.
R. C. Sproul
A god who is all love, all grace, all mercy, no sovereignty, no justice, no holiness, and no wrath is an idol.
R. C. Sproul
Even the slightest sin is an act of cosmic treason.
R. C. Sproul
The only righteousness that meets the requirements of the Law is the righteousness of Christ.
R. C. Sproul
If the God you believe in is not a sovereign God, then you really don't believe in God.
R. C. Sproul
We experience the grace of an infinite God, but grace is not infinite.
R. C. Sproul
If grace is obligated it is no longer grace. The very essence of grace is that it is undeserved.
R. C. Sproul
The failure of modern evangelicalism is the failure to understand the holiness of God.
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
Prayer does change things, all kinds of things. But the most important thing it changes is us.
R. C. Sproul
The principle rule of interpreting Scripture is that Scripture interprets Scripture.
R. C. Sproul
We talk about predestination because the Bible talks about predestination. If we desire to build our theology on the Bible, we run head on into this concept. We soon discover that John Calvin did not invent it.
