We may live in a culture that believes everyone will be saved, that we are 'justified by death' and all you need to do to go to heaven is die, but Godโs Word certainly doesnโt give us the luxury of believing that.
R. C. SproulGod not only initiated my salvation, He not only sowed the seed, but He made sure that that seed germinated in my heart by regenerating me by the power of the Holy Ghost.
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.
