R. C. Sproul quotes about
The grand difference between a human being and a Supreme being is precisely this: Apart from God I cannot exist; apart from me God does exist. God does not need me in order for Him to be. I do need God in order for me to be. We are dependent. We are fragile. This is how we differ from God.
Without the gospel, a gathering of people, though they claim otherwise, cannot be an authentic church.
The neutral view of free will is impossible. It involves choice without desire.
Natural man’s sin is precisely this: He wants the benefits of God without God Himself.
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.
The gospel of Jesus Christ must be defended in every generation. It is always the center of attack by the forces of evil.
Scripture does not say that God is 'love, love, love' or that He is 'wrath, wrath, wrath,' but that He is 'holy, holy, holy.'
Was Luther crazy? Perhaps. But if he was, our prayer is that God would send to this earth an epidemic of such insanity that we too may taste of the righteousness that is by faith alone.
The atonement is a multifaceted event-Jesus is shown providing surety for our debt to God, mediating the enmity between us and God, and offering Himself as a substitute to suffer God's judgment in our place.
God is not blind; neither is He capricious. For Him there are no accidents. With God there are no cases of chance events.
We persevere because we are preserved by our High Priest's intercession.
If the being of God ceased for one second, the universe would disappear.
We prefer the shadows where we feel safe over the light which exposes us and causes us to say 'woe is me!'
The problem in the church today is not the profession of faith, but it's possession.
