If Thou canst do something with us and through us, then please, God, do something without us! Bypass us and take up a people who now know Thee not!
Leonard Ravenhill

If I don't believe the Word of God, why should you believe it? If we don't believe it, why should the world believe us?

A true shepherd leads the way. He does not merely point the way.

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.

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?

God has to work in a man before He can work through a man.

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.

We Christians are debtors to all men at all times in all places, but we are so smug to the lostness of men. We've been 'living in Laodicea,' lax, loose, lustful, and lazy. Why is there this criminal indifference to the lostness of men? Our condemnation is that we know how to live better than we are living.
