You can't develop character by reading books. You develop it from conflict.
Leonard Ravenhill

The church as we know it today seems a million miles from the New Testament church. That may be a great generalization, but I will stand on it. There is a gulf between our average Christianity and the church of New Testament that makes the Grand Canyon look like a cavity in someone's tooth.

No faith is required to do the possible actually only a morsel of this atom-powered stuff is needed to do the impossible, for a piece as large as a mustard seed will do more than we have ever dreamed of.

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

The Bible parable says that while men slept, the enemy sowed tares among the wheat. A boy who rises at 4:30 to deliver papers is considered a go-getter, but to urge our young people to rise at 5:30 to pray is considered fanaticism. We must once again wear the harness of discipline. There is no other way.

Never have so many left so much to so few.

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

The world has lost the power to blush over its vice the Church has lost her power to weep over it.

Preaching affects men prayer affects God. Preaching affects time prayer affects eternity

God asks the best we have Because He gave the Best He had.

The world does not believe the Bible and the church does not obey it.

Preaching is not a profession, it’s a passion
