Christianity is the only religion in the world where a man's God comes and lives inside of Him!
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
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
Image
Ministers who do not spend two hours a day in prayer are not worth a dime a dozen - degrees or no degrees.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
Prayer is as mighty as God, because He has committed Himself to answer it.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
The man who can get believers to praying would, under God, usher in the greatest revival that the world has ever known.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
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.

Redemption is a magnificent thing ..the life of God in the soul of man
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
It may be that Satan has little cause to fear most preaching. Yet past experiences sting him to rally all his infernal army to fight against God's people praying.

When God-given, heaven-sent revival does come, it will undo in weeks the damage that blasphemous Modernism has taken years to build.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
In the New Testament church it says they were all amazed - And now in our churches everybody wants to be amused.

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?

Preaching is not a profession, it’s a passion
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
There's only one proof of the Holy Ghost in your life and that's a holy life.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
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?
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
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
Image
As long as we are content to live without revival, we will.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
Church unity comes from corporate humility.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
This silly world outside thinks it is finished with Jesus Christ but they haven't even started with Him yet.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
I've got The Father on my side, Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit and 2/3 of the angels. What do you think I'm going to do? Sit down and cry?
Leonard Ravenhill

I believe every church is either supernatural or superficial. I don't believe there's any middle ground.
