The very truths that gave birth to the Pentecostal movement are today generally rejected as too strong.

A revival almost always begins among the laity. The ecclesiastical leaders seldom welcome reformation. History repeats itself. The present leaders are too comfortably situated as a rule to desire innovation that might require sacrifice on their part. And God's fire only falls on sacrifice. An empty altar receives no fire!

The depth of our repentance will determine the depth of our revival.

When HOLINESS loses its sweetness it is a fierce thing to come in contact with.

Men's hearts are being searched...it is a tremendous sifting time, not only of actions but of inner motives. Nothing can escape the all-searching eye of God.

The depth of revival will be determined exactly by the depth of the spirit of repentance.

God has always sought a humble people. He can use no other... There is always much need of heart preperation, in humility and separation, before God can consistently come. The depth of any revival will be determined exactly by the spirit of repentance that is obtained. In fact, this is key to every true revival born of God.

The deepest repentance and humility and our own frailty and weakness must be realized before we can know God's strength.
