Are you wiser in God (now) than you were last year at this time? Peter says we're to grow in grace and the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Leonard Ravenhill
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.
Leonard Ravenhill
The most fervent prayer meetings are in hell.
Leonard Ravenhill
One of these days some simple soul will pick up the Book of God, read it, and believe it. Then the rest of us will be embarrassed.
Leonard Ravenhill
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
Jesus did not come into the world to make bad men good. He came into the world to make dead men live!
