More quotes by R. A. Torrey
The failure to return thanks for definite blessings received is a manifestation of ingratitude that grieves Jesus Christ.
R. A. Torrey
We are too busy to pray, and so we are too busy to have power. We have a great deal of activity, but we accomplish little many services but few conversions much machinery but few results.
R. A. Torrey
We are too busy to pray, and so we are too busy to have power.
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
Every true revival from that day to this has had its earthly origin in prayer.
R. A. Torrey
Tell me your doctrine of the Fall and I will tell you the state of your theology.
R. A. Torrey
I would rather win souls than be the greatest king or emperor on earth I would rather win souls than be the greatest general that ever commanded an army I would rather win souls than be the greatest poet, or novelist, or literary man who ever walked the earth. My one ambition in life is to win as many as possible.
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
There must be, in any complete revelation of God's mind and will and character and being, things hard for the beginner to understand and the wisest and best of us are but beginners.
R. A. Torrey
I am ready to meet God face to face tonight and look into those eyes of infinite holiness, for all my sins are covered by the atoning blood.
R. A. Torrey
Ninety-nine Christians in every hundred are merely playing at Bible study and therefore ninety-nine Christians in every hundred are mere weaklings, when they might be giants, both in their Christian life and in their service.
R. A. Torrey
The Devil is perfectly willing that the church should multiply its organizations and its deftly contrived machinery for the conquest of the world for Christ, if it will only give up praying...The Devil is not afraid of machinery he is only afraid of God. And machinery without prayer is machinery without God.
R. A. Torrey
When the devil sees a man or woman who really believes in prayer, who knows how to pray, and who really does pray, and, above all, when he sees a whole church on its face before God in prayer, he trembles as much as he ever did, for he knows that his day in that church or community is at an end.
R. A. Torrey
The chief purpose of prayer is that God may be glorified in the answer.
R. A. Torrey
If you make a great deal of Christ, He will make a great deal of you but if you make but a little of Christ, Christ will make but a little of you.
R. A. Torrey
The one who is truly born again will love the Word of God.
R. A. Torrey
To have as one's ever-present friend, and to be conscious that one has as his ever-present friend, the Holy Spirit and to surrender one's life in all it's departments entirely to His control - this is true Christian living.
R. A. Torrey
I would rather go to heaven alone than go to hell in company.
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
The man or woman at home who prays often has as much to do with the effectiveness of the missionary on the field, and consequently with the results of his or her labors, as the missionary.
R. A. Torrey
