What's the condition of America like, spiritually, tonight? Zero. Why? Because we've got blind men coming out of seminaries. Men there don't teach them they don't hear a word about Hell. They're blind themselves, and as blind men, they lead the blind and they go to Hell.

Praying Christians know nothing of their friends

At God's counter there are no sale days, for the price of revival is ever the same: travail!

We have adopted the convenient theory that the Bible is a Book to be explained, whereas first and foremost it is a Book to be believed (and after that to be obeyed.)

The apostles had no gold, but lots of glory. We have lots of gold, but no glory.

Every step you make in Jesus Christ enrages the devil.

Jesus did not come into the world to make bad men good. He came into the world to make dead men live!

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