More quotes by Leonard Ravenhill
Prayer is no substitute for work equally true is it that work is no substitute for prayer.
Leonard Ravenhill
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.
Leonard Ravenhill
If Jesus had preached the same message that ministers preach today, He would never have been crucified.
Leonard Ravenhill
Everyone wants to be clothed but no one wants to be stripped.
Leonard Ravenhill
I wish, in America, (that) we were as concerned about separation from church and sin as we are about separation between church and state. Church and sin-- it's a monstrous problem.
Leonard Ravenhill
The men that have been the most heroic for God have had the greatest devotional lives.
Leonard Ravenhill
Prayer is as mighty as God, because He has committed Himself to answer it.
Leonard Ravenhill
Life begets life by its very nature. By the same token, inspired men inspire.
Leonard Ravenhill
Christians don't tell lies, they just go to church and sing them. How many times have you stood and sang, “Take my life and let it be” when you haven't given Him one ounce?
Leonard Ravenhill
The Church used to be a lifeboat rescuing the perishing. Now she is a cruise ship recruiting the promising.
Leonard Ravenhill
God pity us that after years of writing, using mountains of paper and rivers of ink, exhausting flashy terminology about the biggest revival meetings in history, we are still faced with gross corruption in every nation, as well as with the most prayerless church age since Pentecost.
Leonard Ravenhill
The tragedy is that we have too many dead men in the pulpits giving out too many dead sermons to too many dead people.
Leonard Ravenhill
The law of prayer is the law of harvest: sow sparingly in prayer, reap sparingly sow bountifully in prayer, reap bountifully. The trouble is we are trying to get from our efforts what we never put into them.
Leonard Ravenhill
What good does it do to speak in tongues on Sunday if you have been using your tongue during the week to curse and gossip?
Leonard Ravenhill
No church group that knows spiritual warfare has wiener roasts or even passion plays. There is a real warfare. I have said before that we are an arrogant, self-styled bunch of believers. We believe to the point of inconvenience - and then quit.
Leonard Ravenhill
This silly world outside thinks it is finished with Jesus Christ but they haven't even started with Him yet.
Leonard Ravenhill
Where there is no passion, the church perishes, even though it be full to the doors.
Leonard Ravenhill
You can have all of your doctrines right—yet still not have the presence of God.
Leonard Ravenhill
A man with an experience of God is never at the mercy of a man with an argument.
Leonard Ravenhill
I doubt if 5% of professing Christians in America are born again-and that's true of England!
