If you're going to be a true Christian, I'll tell you one thing amongst others: it'll be a lonely life. It's a narrow way and it becomes narrower and narrower and narrower.

More quotes by Leonard Ravenhill
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!
Leonard Ravenhill
Our spiritual immutarity never shows up more than in our lack of praying, be it alone or in a church prayer meeting. Let 20% of the chior members fail to turn up for rehearsal and the chior master is offended. Let 20% of the church members turn up for a prayer meeting, and the pastor is elated.
Leonard Ravenhill
In the New Testament church it says they were all amazed - And now in our churches everybody wants to be amused.
Leonard Ravenhill
Some Day Someone is going to pick up this book (The Bible) and believe it, and put us all to shame.
Leonard Ravenhill
We have too many preacherettes preaching too many sermonettes to too many Christianettes smoking cigarettes.
Leonard Ravenhill
This life is a dressing room for eternity - THAT'S ALL IT IS!
Leonard Ravenhill
I'd rather have ten people that want God than 10,000 people who want to play church.

If the whole church goes off into deception, that will in no way excuse us for not following Christ.

Preaching is not a profession, it’s a passion
Leonard Ravenhill
Smart men walked on the moon, daring men walked on the ocean floor, but wise men walk with God.
Leonard Ravenhill
The most fervent prayer meetings are in hell.
Leonard Ravenhill
Life begets life by its very nature. By the same token, inspired men inspire.
Leonard Ravenhill
One of these days some simple soul will pick up the Book of God, read it, and believe it. Then the rest of us will be embarrassed.
Leonard Ravenhill
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.)
Leonard Ravenhill
The true Church is born from above. In it there are no sinners, and outside of it no saints. No man can put another's name on its member's roll and no man can cross another's name off that roll.
Leonard Ravenhill
Isn't it amazing that God gives breath to a man who is going to blaspheme Him all day!
Leonard Ravenhill
Praying Christians know nothing of their friends
Leonard Ravenhill
If Jesus came back today, he wouldn’t cleanse the temple, he’d cleanse the pulpit.
Leonard Ravenhill
The tragedy in our colleges and seminaries right now is that we turn men out who know the word of God. That is never going to turn the world. The question is not whether they know the Word of God.... The question is......Do they know the God of the Word?
Leonard Ravenhill
The early Church was married to poverty, prisons and persecutions. Today, the church is married to prosperity, personality, and popularity.
