More quotes by R. C. Sproul
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
The Bible alone is the only authority that can bind the conscience of a person absolutely because it is the only authority that carries with it the intrinsic authority of God Himself.
R. C. Sproul
Prayer is to the Christian what breath is to life, yet no duty of the Christian is so neglected.
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 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
I do not want to drive across a bridge designed by an engineer who believed the numbers in structural stress models are relative truths.

No unborn baby has ever had the right to choose or deny its own destruction.
R. C. Sproul
To focus our mind on the task at hand-with fierce concentration-m akes for a productive use of time.
R. C. Sproul
The world is filled with God's glory. You can't turn without bumping into it.
R. C. Sproul
Confession should be a daily activity for the Christian, whose entire pilgrimage is characterized by the spirit of repentance.
R. C. Sproul
In His tender mercies, God has an incredible capacity to love the unlovely.
R. C. Sproul
No Christian can avoid theology. Every Christian is a theologian. Perhaps not a theologian in the technical or professional sense, but a theologian nevertheless. The issue for Christians is not whether we are going to be theologians but whether we are going to be good theologians or bad ones.
R. C. Sproul
The promises of God for tomorrow are the anchor for believers today.
R. C. Sproul
God is serious about how we worship Him, and we must be serious about it, too.
R. C. Sproul
The grounds of your justification are the perfect works of Jesus Christ. We're saved by works, but they're not our own.
R. C. Sproul
The more I learn about God, the more aware I become of what I don’t know about him.
R. C. Sproul
Dead men do not cooperate with grace. Unless regeneration takes place first, there is no possibility of faith.
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
If you take away the cross as an atoning act, you take away Christianity.
R. C. Sproul
The one place where the Christian can be naked without fear is in the presence of Christ.
