More quotes by Ravi Zacharias
You see misery, you see misfortune, you see pain, you see suffering. It's all part of the fatalistic way of looking at life.
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
No matter how much we try to run away from this thirst for the answer to life, for the meaning of life, the intensity only gets stronger and stronger. We cannot escape these spiritual hungers.
Ravi Zacharias
How have we come to a place in society where millions of babies can be slaughtered and disposed of in the name of progress? Shocking but real.
Ravi Zacharias
The biggest difference between Jesus Christ and ethical and moral teachers who have been deified by man. Is that these moralists came to make bad people good. Jesus came to make dead people live!
Ravi Zacharias
Our intellect is not intended to be an end in itself, but only a means to the very mind of God.
Ravi Zacharias
I have little doubt that the single greatest obstacle to the impact of the gospel has not been its inability to provide answers, but the failure on our part to live it out.
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
We have to find the back door to peoples' hearts because the front door is heavily guarded.
Ravi Zacharias
Love is hard work. It is the hardest work I know of, work from which you are never entitled to take a vacation.
Ravi Zacharias
The person who demands a sign and at the same time has already determined that anything that cannot be explained scientifically is meaningless is not merely stacking the deck he is losing at his own game.
Ravi Zacharias
Every worldview has to bring together reason and faith.
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
Today there is no greater force in the molding of the North American mind than the invasion of the imagination by the visual media.
Ravi Zacharias
Beginning well is a momentary thing finishing well is a lifelong thing
Ravi Zacharias
Conviction is not merely an opinion. It is something rooted so deeply in the conscience that to change a conviction would be to change the very essence of who you are.
Ravi Zacharias
There are so many needs in the world, and our hearts cannot carry them all. You must walk to the priorities God has set before you.
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
Competence is a big word. It is important. I almost want to nuance it with the idea of giftedness because sometimes you can teach a lot of skills on exposition but a person may not have the competence or the giftedness to do it. Therefore, it is very important to have that.
Ravi Zacharias
What you applaud you encourage, but beware what you celebrate.
