Saturday Sayings 2026 OCT: R.C. Sproul

R.C. Sproul (1939-2017) was one of the most influential Reformed theologians in the late 20th century and into the early 21st century. R.C. (Robert Charles) was a conservative Presbyterian minister, former pastor of St. Andrews Chapel, founder of Ligonier Ministries, and author of several Christian books. 

“You can’t love Jesus and not love his Word.” #RCSproul

This quote is short, sweet, and true. I believe loving God’s word equals reading and studying it daily, making it one of the most important things we do in our lives. 

“How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Through your precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way. Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” Psalm 119:103-105

The Bible should be a part of our daily lives. 

“Oh how I love your law! It is my meditation all the day.” Psalm 119:97

And as believers, instructed to imitate God by walking in the ways of Christ as revealed in His word, we can know His will for our lives through studying the Bible. 

“Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.” Ephesians 5:1-2 

The word of God is precious, and holy and good, and it directs our paths! 

“All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17

The Bible explains that there are really only two kinds of people, sheep and goats. 

Sheep are included in the kingdom of heaven and goats are not.

“When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. And he will place the sheep on his right, but the goats on the left. Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.” Matthew 25:31-34

The sheep are all those who have truly placed their faith in Jesus Christ. 

The goats are all those who never placed their faith in Christ. 

“I told you that you would die in your sins, for unless you believe that I am he you will die in your sins.” John 8:24

The simple truth is, ten out of ten people die and there are only two ways of doing so.

R.C. Sproul sums it this way: 

“There are only two ways of dying. We can die in faith or we can die in our sins.” #RCSproul 

Most importantly, if you haven’t already done so, repent and believe in the gospel of Jesus Christ today.
