Leonard Ravenhill
Image
To stand before men on behalf of God is one thing. To stand before God on behalf of men is something entirely different.
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.

Children can tell you what Channel 7 says, but not what Matthew 7 says.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
Better for you to have one sleepless night on earth than millions in hell.

The apostles had no gold, but lots of glory. We have lots of gold, but no glory.
