The greatest weakness in the church today is that the servants of God keep looking over their shoulder for the approval of men.
R. C. SproulManโs will is free to follow his inclinations, but fallen manโs inclinations are always and invariably away from God.
R. C. SproulIn 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.
R. C. SproulThe 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.
