More quotes by R. A. Torrey
We must always bear in mind that the primary purpose of our work is not to get people to join a church, to give up their bad habits, or to do anything other than to accept Jesus Christ as their Savior.
R. A. Torrey
We are not saved by denying self, or taking up our cross, or doing anything else, we are saved by simply believing in Jesus.
R. A. Torrey
The reason why many fail in battle is because they wait until the hour of battle. The reason why others succeed is because they have gained their victory on their knees long before the battle came. Anticipate your battles fight them on your knees before temptation comes, and you will always have victory.
R. A. Torrey
When the perceptive child of God stops to weigh the meaning of these words, then notes the connection in which they are found, he or she is driven to say, I must pray, pray, pray. I must put all my energy and heart into prayer. Whatever else I do, I must pray.
R. A. Torrey

R. A. Torrey

R. A. Torrey
Oh, men and women, pray through pray through! Do not just begin to pray and pray a little while and throw up your hands and quit but pray and pray and pray until God bends the heavens and comes down.
R. A. Torrey
Do not study commentaries, lesson helps or other books about the Bible: study the Bible itself. Do not study about the Bible, study the Bible. The Bible is the Word of God, and only the Bible is the Word of God.
R. A. Torrey
If you in any way abate the doctrine of hell, it will abate your zeal.
R. A. Torrey
We are too busy to pray, and so we are too busy to have power.
R. A. Torrey
I prayed fifteen years for the conversion of my oldest brother. When he seemed to be getting further and further away from any hope of conversion, I prayed on.
R. A. Torrey
Just as one gets the firstfruits of spiritual salvation in the life that now is, so we get the firstfruits of our physical salvation in the life that now is.
R. A. Torrey
Prayer that is born of meditation upon the Word of God is the prayer that soars upward most easily to God's listening ears.
