More quotes by R. C. Sproul
The principle rule of interpreting Scripture is that Scripture interprets Scripture.
R. C. Sproul
It is one thing to fall victim to the flood or to fall prey to cancer it is another thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
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
Scripture does not say that God is 'love, love, love' or that He is 'wrath, wrath, wrath,' but that He is 'holy, holy, holy.'
R. C. Sproul
Once we are reconciled to God, the estrangement is over, the hostilities have ended, and the peace is sealed for eternity.
R. C. Sproul
Even the slightest sin is an act of cosmic treason.
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
To live coram Deo is to live one’s entire life in the presence of God, under the authority of God, to the glory of God.
R. C. Sproul
It is one thing to believe in God it is quite another to believe God.
R. C. Sproul
I get irritated when I hear preachers say, Come to Jesus and all your problems will be over. That's just simply a lie.
R. C. Sproul
The great misconception in our day is this: that God isn´t concerned to protect His own integrity. He´s a kind of wishy-washy deity, who just waves a wand of forgiveness over everybody. No. For God to forgive you is a very costly matter.
R. C. Sproul
The more sanctified a person is the more heavily weighted his prayer time is in adoration.
R. C. Sproul
The only way the kingdom of God is going to be manifest in this world before Christ comes is if we manifest it by the way we live as citizens of heaven and subjects of the King.
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
We persevere because we are preserved by our High Priest's intercession.
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
Man’s will is free to follow his inclinations, but fallen man’s inclinations are always and invariably away from God.
R. C. Sproul
God's grace is not infinite. God is infinite, and God is gracious.
R. C. Sproul
One might pray and not be a Christian, but one cannot be a Christian and not pray.
R. C. Sproul
You have to stop thinking logically to argue that the universe came into being by itself, out of nothing.
R. C. Sproul
