“It
is neither judgment nor judgment according to the status quo with which we have
a problem, but rather judgment according to God's Word. We sharply dress
ourselves, go out into the world, shape ourselves, our personalities according
to the world's standards and preferences, allow ourselves to be made dull by
the world and its desires in order to appear successful and happy and
attractive in the eyes of the world: we love the world's judgment but we hate
God's judgment. Absurdly enough, the one which really matters, the one out of
the purest of loves rather than that of a mere contract in hopes of mutual
gain, is the one from which we so adamantly try to cut off, shut off, and
distance ourselves.”

“I
think the greatest weakness in the church today is that almost no one believes
that God invests His power in the Bible. Everyone is looking for power in a
program, in a methodology, in a technique, in anything and everything but that
in which God has placed it—His Word. He alone has the power to change lives for
eternity, and that power is focused on the Scriptures.”

R.C. Sproul, The Prayer of the Lord
“You
believe in a book that has talking animals, wizards, witches, demons, sticks
turning into snakes, food falling from the sky, people walking on water, and
all sorts of magical, absurd and primitive stories, and you say that we are the
ones that need help?”

“I
don't think it is enough appreciated how much an outdoor book the Bible is. It
is a "hypaethral book," such as Thoreau talked about - a book open to
the sky. It is best read and understood outdoors, and the farther outdoors the
better. Or that has been my experience of it. Passages that within walls seem
improbable or incredible, outdoors seem merely natural. This is because
outdoors we are confronted everywhere with wonders; we see that the miraculous
is not extraordinary but the common mode of existence. It is our daily bread.”

“Nowhere
in the Bible, however, do we find God distinguishing between levels of sin. God
doesn't share our rating system. To him, all sin is equally evil, and all
sinners are equally lovable.”
