Tabletalk Magazine exists to help establish us in the Word to deepen our understanding of God and apply this knowledge to our daily living.
R. C. SproulNo sinner has the right to say with impunity, 'God you owe me grace.' If grace is owed, it is not grace. The very essence of grace is its voluntary character. God reserves to himself the sovereign, absolute right to give grace to some and withhold that grace from others.
R. C. SproulThe power of the gospel is the word of God . . . nobody needs a gospel if thereโs no judgment, or law, if God is not a God of judgment. If there is no such thing as hell, what good is the gospel?
R. C. SproulFor a work to be considered good it must not only conform outwardly to the law of God, but it must be motivated inwardly by a sincere love for God.
R. C. SproulLoving a holy God is beyond our moral power. The only kind of God we can love by our sinful nature is an unholy god, an idol made by our own hands. Unless we are born of the Spirit of God, unless God sheds His holy love in our hearts, unless He stoops in His grace to change our hearts, we will not love Him... To love a holy God requires grace, grace strong enough to pierce our hardened hearts and awaken our moribund souls.
