You have to stop thinking logically to argue that the universe came into being by itself, out of nothing.
R. C. SproulWhen people ask me to name the Ligonier teaching material they should use to help them grow; I tell them, 'You should start with The Holiness of God.'
R. C. SproulThe idea of being the Substitute in offering an atonement to satisfy the demands of Godโs law for others was something Christ understood as His mission from the moment He entered this world and took upon Himself a human nature. He came from heaven as the gift of the Father for the express purpose of working out redemption as our Substitute, doing for us what we could not possibly do for ourselves.
R. C. SproulA faithful person is revealed by those who hate him or her. Are you hated for your faith or ethics? If nobody hates you, maybe you have not displayed Christ openly enough.
R. C. SproulIf you donโt delight in the fact that your Father is holy, holy, holy, then you are spiritually dead. You may be in a church. You may go to a Christian school. But if there is no delight in your soul for the holiness of God, you donโt know God. You donโt love God. Youโre out of touch with God. Youโre asleep to his character.
