More quotes by Ravi Zacharias
A mood can be a dangerous state of mind, because it can crush reason under the weight of feeling.
Ravi Zacharias
Beginning well is a momentary thing finishing well is a lifelong thing
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 do not believe that one can earnestly seek and find the priceless treasure of God's call without a devout prayer life. That is where God speaks.
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
If you can make any religion look idiotic, chances are you haven't understood that religion.
Ravi Zacharias
Every time you get on your knees and pray to God, 'Holy' keeps the respect and reverence while 'Father' brings Him close & intimate.
Ravi Zacharias
The atheist risk everything for the present and the future, on the basis of a belief that we are uncaused by any intelligent being. We just happen to be here. That one is willing to live and die in that belief is a very high price to pay for conjecture.
Ravi Zacharias
In naturalism, man is actually very insignificant, but arrogates to himself stupendous power. In Christianity, man is actually the apex of created significance, but is called to see it in abject humility.
Ravi Zacharias
Only when holiness and worship meet can evil be conquered. For that, only the Christian message has the answer.
Ravi Zacharias
The first and foremost reality is that suffering and death are not only enemies of life, but a means of reminding us of life's twin realities, love and hate.
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 questions of today's average young person, who is the product of America's intellectual bastions, have been virtually unaddressed by the church.
Ravi Zacharias
When I do things my way, I exhaust pleasure very quickly. It is not that Christianity has failed to teach me how to delight in God's presence it is that I have failed by seeking pleasure through godless ways or by resisting God's provision for me because it is not what I want.
Ravi Zacharias
All religions do not point to God
Ravi Zacharias
The grace of forgiveness, because God Himself has paid the price, is a Christian distinctive and stands splendidly against our hate-filled, unforgiving world. God's forgiveness gives us a fresh start.
Ravi Zacharias
Nothing, absolutely nothing, has a more direct bearing on the moral choices made by individuals or the purposes pursued by society than belief or disbelief in God.
Ravi Zacharias
Ours is not a problem of the intellect but of spiritual poverty. That is why we need a Savior.
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
The purpose of prayer and of God's call in your life isn't to make you number one in the world's eyes but to make Him number one in your life.
Ravi Zacharias
