In the culture of pluralism...the only thing that cannot be tolerated is a claim to exclusivity.
R. C. SproulHope is called the anchor of the soul because it gives stability to the Christian life. But hope is not simply a 'wish' I wish that such-and-such would take place rather, it is that which latches on to the certainty of the promises of the future that God has made.
R. C. SproulHere then is the real problem of our negligence. We fail in our duty to study God's Word not so much because it is difficult to understand, not so much because it is dull and boring, but because it is work. Our problem is not a lack of intelligence or a lack of passion. Our problem is that we are lazy.
R. C. SproulA Christian is not a skeptic. A Christian is a person with a burning heart, a heart set aflame with certainty of the resurrection.
