More quotes by 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
Modern man has lost any sense of God's nearness, but Christianity teaches that God reveals himself through every single thing he has ever brought into being, whether a created object or historical event.
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
To be conformed to this world is to risk the loss of one’s eternal soul.
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
Look to the Bible and not your feelings as the basis of the Christian life.
R. C. Sproul
I believe it to be one of the most important discipleship resources we have produced at Ligonier.
R. C. Sproul
Your personal testimony, however meaningful it is to you, is not the gospel.
R. C. Sproul
Holiness provokes hatred. The greater the holiness, the greater the human hostility toward it. It seems insane. No man was ever more loving than Jesus Christ. Yet even His love made people angry. His love was a perfect love, a transcendent and holy love, but HIs very love brought trauma to people. This kind of love is so majestic we can't stand it.
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
Anyone who takes his faith seriously and speaks in behalf of Christ and His kingdom will be accused of fanaticism at some point.
R. C. Sproul
We have no right to come before God at all, apart from the finished work of Christ.
R. C. Sproul
The only righteousness that meets the requirements of the Law is the righteousness of Christ.
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
The more sanctified a person is the more heavily weighted his prayer time is in adoration.
R. C. Sproul
The clearest sensation that a human being has when he experiences the holy is an overpowering and overwhelming sense of creatureliness. That is, when we are in the presence of God, we are humbled and become most aware of ourselves as creatures. This is the opposite of Satan's original temptation, You shall be as gods.
R. C. Sproul
Burning hearts are not nourished by empty heads
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
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 resurrection was God the Father's way of authenticating all of the truths that were declared by Jesus.
