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.

The only power that God yields to is that of prayer.

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.

Preaching is not a profession, it's a passion! If a man can't preach with passion he shouldn't preach at all.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
Smart men walked on the moon, daring men walked on the ocean floor, but wise men walk with God.

If you're going to be a true Christian, I'll tell you one thing amongst others: it'll be a lonely life. It's a narrow way and it becomes narrower and narrower and narrower.

Any method of evangelism will work—if God is in it.

I'm sick and tired of (only) reading about church history let's make (some) by the grace of God

The true church lives and moves and has its being in prayer.

Great eagles fly alone great lions hunt alone great souls walk alone-alone with God. Such loneliness is hard to endure, and impossible to enjoy unless God accompanied. Prophets are lone men they walk alone, pray alone and God makes them alone.

It is much easier to wear a cross than to bear a cross.
