R. C. Sproul quotes about
We live in age of compromise, but if we stand on the bedrock of God’s truth, we will not bend with the winds of relativism and faithlessness.
In a universe governed by God there are no chance events. Indeed, there is no such thing as chance. Chance does not exist. It is merely a word we use to describe mathematical possibilities. But chance itself has no power because it has no being. Chance is not an entity that can influence reality. Chance is not a thing. It is nothing.
In every age the church is threatened by heresy, and heresy is bound up in false doctrine. It is the desire of all heretics to minimize the importance of doctrine. When doctrine is minimized, heresy can exercise itself without restraint.
Doctrine divides, but doctrine also unites. It binds together the hearts of God's people who celebrate the truth of God together.
I don't always feel His presence. But God's promises do not depend upon my feelings; they rest upon His integrity.
If you are of the truth, if you have learned the truth, if you see the sanctity of the truth, then speak truth. We are not called to be deceivers or liars. God is a God of truth, and His people are called to have an enormously high standard of truth.
If the God you believe in is not a sovereign God, then you really don't believe in God.
Once we are reconciled to God, the estrangement is over, the hostilities have ended, and the peace is sealed for eternity.
To be conformed to this world is to risk the loss of one’s eternal soul.
All that God had to do to harden Pharaoh's heart, or to harden your heart, is to withhold His own grace.
Doctrine does matter.
The higher purpose of the cross was that the Father would be glorified by the satisfaction of His justice.
In salvation we are not only saved from sin and damnation; we are saved unto holiness. The goal of redemption is holiness.
We are cosmic traitors. We must recognize this problem within ourselves if we are to grasp the necessity of the cross.
