Image
The issue of faith is not so much whether we believe in God, but whether we believe the God we believe in. (p.35)
R. C. Sproul
Image
Jesus' life was a storm of controversy. The apostles, like the prophets before them, could hardly go a day without controversy. Paul said that he debated daily in the marketplace. To avoid controversy is to avoid Christ. We can have peace, but it is a servile and carnal peace where truth is slain in the streets.
R. C. Sproul
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Dead men do not cooperate with grace. Unless regeneration takes place first, there is no possibility of faith.
R. C. Sproul
Image
To say that God's sovereignty is limited by man's freedom is to make man sovereign.
R. C. Sproul
Image
We are not doomed to an ultimate conflict with no hope of resolution. The message of the Scripture is one of victory - full, final and ultimate victory. It is not our doom that is certain, but Satan's. His head has been crushed by the heel of Christ, who is the Alpha and Omega.
R. C. Sproul
Image
The gospel is only good news when we understand the bad news.
R. C. Sproul
Image
We live in a time of crisis in the secular culture and in the church with regard to the beautiful.
R. C. Sproul
Image
There is not one piece of cosmic dust that is outside the scope of God's sovereign providence.
R. C. Sproul
Image
The principle rule of interpreting Scripture is that Scripture interprets Scripture.
R. C. Sproul
Image
Your personal testimony, however meaningful it is to you, is not the gospel.
R. C. Sproul
Image
Though sin often brings immediate pleasure, it gives no lasting joy.
R. C. Sproul
Image
One might pray and not be a Christian, but one cannot be a Christian and not pray.
