The less power a church has, the more entertainment it has.

Can any deny that in the modern church setup the main cause of anxiety is money? Yet that which tries the modern churches the most, troubled the New Testament Church the least. Our emphasis is on paying theirs was on praying. When we have paid, the place is taken when they had prayed, the place was shaken!

There’s a difference between changing your opinion, and changing your lifestyle.

The true church lives and moves and has its being in prayer.

Faith that is going to be trusted is going to be tested.

The only power that God yields to is that of prayer.

Preaching is not a profession, it's a passion! If a man can't preach with passion he shouldn't preach at all.

The attitude of the average Christian today is relax and be raptured. But He is coming... and when God gets angry you´ve no idea what it is. Like a thousand volcanoes exploding. He has appointed a day in which He is going to judge the world and the poor blindworld doesn´t know much about it and the poor blind church doesn´t think much about it now.

Why in God's name do you expect to be accepted everywhere? How is it the world couldn't get on with the holiest man that ever lived, and it can get on with you and me?

Notice, we never pray for folks we gossip about, and we never gossip about the folk for whom we pray! For prayer is a great deterrent.

But have we Holy Ghost power — power that restricts the devil's power, pulls down strongholds, and obtains promises? Daring delinquents will be damned if they are not delivered from the devil's dominion. What has hell to fear other than a God-anointed, prayer-powered church?

As long as we are content to live without revival, we will.

Finney preached and sometimes the whole congregation would get up and leave! that's good preaching.

We're living in an unprecedented day (when) evil is no longer evil. We've changed the terminology-- iniquity is now infirmity wickedness is now weakness devilry is now deficiency.

In the New Testament church it says they were all amazed - And now in our churches everybody wants to be amused.

I want to so live that God doesn't have to have to give me one minute's

Paul never glamorized the gospel! It is not success, but sacrifice! It's not a glamous gospel ,but a bloody gospel, a gory gospel, and a sacrificial gospel! 5 minutes inside eternity and we will wish that we had sacrificed more!!! Wept more, bled more, grieved more, loved more, prayed more, given more!!!

I think one of the serious breakdowns in modern evangelism is this: it has offered too much for too little. What we do mostly is offer forgiveness. We need cleansing! There is no true conversion until a man takes up his cross.

If you kneel before God, you will stand before men.

By our attitude to prayer we tell God that what was begun in the Spirit we can finish in the flesh.
