Truth is not only a matter of offense, in that it makes certain assertions. It is also a matter of defense in that it must be able to make a cogent and sensible response to the counterpoints that are raised.

More quotes by Ravi Zacharias
You can't take treasured beliefs from the past and mock them.
Ravi Zacharias
With no fact as a referent, what is normative is purely a matter of preference.
Ravi Zacharias
Changes in language often reflect the changing values of a culture.
Ravi Zacharias
Love is the greatest apologetic. It is the essential component in reaching the whole person in a fragmented world. The need is vast, but it is also imperative that we be willing to follow the example of Jesus and meet the need.
Ravi Zacharias
As I see our world, I have never seen greater confusion, greater loss of meaning, greater uncertainty, and greater fear of what looms in front of us. Politics has gotten out of control everywhere. Nobody sees a mascot or a leader, and everyone wants to know what really lies ahead here.
Ravi Zacharias
Our sense of wonder is a blessing from God, given so that we would be continually amazed at His beauty and creation.
Ravi Zacharias
Beginning well is a momentary thing finishing well is a lifelong thing
Ravi Zacharias
Truth by definition excludes.
Ravi Zacharias
Time isn't just a fleeting thing. It never moves forward without engraving its mark upon the heart.
Ravi Zacharias
My longings, my hopes, my dreams, and my every effort has been to live for Him who rescued me, to study for Him who gave me this mind, to serve Him who fashioned my will, and to speak for Him who gave me a voice.
Ravi Zacharias
We need to learn how to handle critique and how to address an antagonist.
Ravi Zacharias
I think the reason we sometimes have the false sense that God is so far away is because that is where we have put him. We have kept him at a distance, and then when we are in need and call on him in prayer, we wonder where he is. He is exactly where we left him.
Ravi Zacharias
I am thoroughly convinced that when the last chapter of humanity is written, we will find that the implications of atheism, i.e., living without God, if consistently carried through, will have made life plainly unlivable within the limits of reason or even common sense
Ravi Zacharias
The use or abuse of Christianity in contradiction to the very message of the gospel reveals not the gospel for what it is, but the heart of man. That is why atheism is so bankrupt as a view of life, for it miserably fails to deal with the human condition as it really is.
Ravi Zacharias
Truth cannot be sacrificed at the altar of pretended tolerance. Real tolerance is deference to all ideas, not indifference to the truth.
Ravi Zacharias
In a post-modern culture we need an apologetic that is felt and seen because if post-moderns are not feeling it, they are not believing it.
Ravi Zacharias
There can be no reproach to pain unless we assume human dignity, there is no reason for restraints on pleasure unless we assume human worth, there is no legitimacy to monotony unless we assume a greater purpose to life, there is no purpose to life unless we assume design, death has no significance unless we seek what is everlasting.
Ravi Zacharias
I have infinite knowledge that there is no being in existence with infinite knowledge
Ravi Zacharias
When your life is changed by Jesus, you are a new creature. God not only changes what you do, He also changes what you want to do.
Ravi Zacharias
I thank the Lord that, even though things were so wrong in my life here, I finally was brought to the realization of what all those struggles were about. There are some wonderful things from your painful past, things with a beauty you may not have realized at the time.
Ravi Zacharias
