More quotes by Ravi Zacharias
The denial of an objective moral law, based on the compulsion to deny the existence of God, results ultimately in the denial of evil iteself.
Ravi Zacharias
It is easier to hide behind philosophical arguments, heavily footnoted for effect, than it is to admit our hurts, our confusions, our loves, and our passions in the marketplace of life's heartfelt transactions.
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
For the Christian, worship is co-extensive with life. Life is already an expression of worship.
Ravi Zacharias
We have to find the back door to peoples' hearts because the front door is heavily guarded.
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
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
What is right has to win the day over what we may see as rights.
Ravi Zacharias
What does it mean to be human? It means we are created in the image of God for the glorious reality of being in permanent fellowship with Him.
Ravi Zacharias
Isn't it ironic that after 70 years Russia wants God back while we are trying to kick him out?
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 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
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
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
We need to learn how to handle critique and how to address an antagonist.
Ravi Zacharias
If you can make any religion look idiotic, chances are you haven't understood that religion.
Ravi Zacharias
The assurance of Heaven is never given to the person. And that's why at the core of the Christian faith is the grace of God. If there's one word I would grab from all of that, it's forgiveness - that you can be forgiven. I can be forgiven, and it is of the grace of God. But once you understand that, I think the ramifications are worldwide.
Ravi Zacharias
Most of the intellectual elite of the USA completely disavow the idea of absolute truth.
Ravi Zacharias
My premise is that the popular aphorism that 'all religions are fundamentally the same and only superficially different' simply is not true. It is more correct to say that all religions are, at best, superficially similar but fundamentally different.
Ravi Zacharias
Freedom can be destroyed, not just by its retraction, but also by its abuse.
