More quotes by Leonard Ravenhill
Finney preached and sometimes the whole congregation would get up and leave! that's good preaching.
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
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
No faith is required to do the possible actually only a morsel of this atom-powered stuff is needed to do the impossible, for a piece as large as a mustard seed will do more than we have ever dreamed of.
Leonard Ravenhill
We're living in an unprecedented day (when) evil is no longer evil. We've changed the terminology-- iniquity is now infirmity wickedness is now weakness devilry is now deficiency.
Leonard Ravenhill
There's one thing we need above everything else it's something we don't talk about these days. We need a mighty avalanche of conviction of sin.
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 world has lost the power to blush over its vice the Church has lost her power to weep over it.
Leonard Ravenhill
The more men pray, the less worldly they become. The less they pray, the more worldly they become. I am, of course, speaking of professing Christians at this point.
Leonard Ravenhill
The less power a church has, the more entertainment it has.
Leonard Ravenhill
If Jesus had preached the same message that ministers preach today, He would never have been crucified.
Leonard Ravenhill
I believe every church is either supernatural or superficial. I don't believe there's any middle ground.
Leonard Ravenhill
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
The true Church is born from above. In it there are no sinners, and outside of it no saints. No man can put another's name on its member's roll and no man can cross another's name off that roll.
Leonard Ravenhill
I have no faith in my faith. My faith is in the faithful God.
Leonard Ravenhill
Can any deny that in the modern church setup the main cause of anxiety is money? Yet that which tries the modern churches the most, troubled the New Testament Church the least. Our emphasis is on paying theirs was on praying. When we have paid, the place is taken when they had prayed, the place was shaken!
Leonard Ravenhill
The true church lives and moves and has its being in prayer.
Leonard Ravenhill
A saint is good when nobody is looking.
Leonard Ravenhill
I doubt if 5% of professing Christians in America are born again-and that's true of England!

Children can tell you what Channel 7 says, but not what Matthew 7 says.
