Quote by R. C. Sproul
“Orthodox Christianity teaches that, though there was a time when each soul did not exist, after its creation there will never be a time when it no longer exists. Christianity denies any doctrine of the soul’s annihilation, either at death or afterward. God has created us with the capacity to live forever. In fact, we will all live forever in our souls—including the damned. Perhaps that is what the Westminster divines had in mind when using the term immortal to describe the created souls of human beings.”

Robert Charles Sproul was an American Reformed theologian and ordained pastor in the Presbyterian Church in America. He was the founder and chairman of Ligonier Ministries and could be heard daily on the Renewing Your Mind radio broadcast in the United States and internationally. Under Sproul's direction, Ligonier Ministries produced the Ligonier Statement on Biblical Inerrancy, which would eventually grow into the 1978 Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy, of which Sproul, alongside Norman Geisler, was one of the chief architects. Sproul has been described as "the greatest and most influential proponent of the recovery of Reformed theology in the last century."
