Men build our churches but do not enter them, print our Bibles but do not read them, talk about God but do not believe Him, speak of Christ but do not trust Him for salvation, sing our hymns and then forget them.

More quotes by Leonard Ravenhill
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
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 question isn't were you challenged. The question is were you changed?
Leonard Ravenhill
If Jesus had preached the same message that ministers preach today, He would never have been crucified.
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
By our attitude to prayer we tell God that what was begun in the Spirit we can finish in the flesh.
Leonard Ravenhill
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.
Leonard Ravenhill
I doubt that more than two percent of professing Christians in the United States are truly born again.
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
Smart men walked on the moon, daring men walked on the ocean floor, but wise men walk with God.
Leonard Ravenhill
Men of prayer must be men of steel, for they will be assaulted by Satan even before they attempt to assault his kingdom.
Leonard Ravenhill
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.
Leonard Ravenhill
Every step you make in Jesus Christ enrages the devil.
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?
Leonard Ravenhill
Notice, we never pray for folks we gossip about, and we never gossip about the folk for whom we pray! For prayer is a great deterrent.
Leonard Ravenhill
Praying men stop sinning and sinning men stop praying.
Leonard Ravenhill
Life begets life by its very nature. By the same token, inspired men inspire.
Leonard Ravenhill
A Christian who isn't praying, is only playing!
Leonard Ravenhill
A true shepherd leads the way. He does not merely point the way.
Leonard Ravenhill
I doubt if 5% of professing Christians in America are born again-and that's true of England!
