More quotes by 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
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
Redemption is prior to righteousness. You cannot be righteous until you are first redeemed.
Ravi Zacharias
You cannot talk about evil without assuming a moral framework.
Ravi Zacharias
Time isn't just a fleeting thing. It never moves forward without engraving its mark upon the heart.
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
Most of the intellectual elite of the USA completely disavow the idea of absolute truth.
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
Bahaism gives you a pluralistic view, and a lot of aspects of Hinduism give you a moral framework with no accountability other than the karmic system. There's no linear movement or point of accountability toward God.
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
When you come to religion, you come to a place. When you come to Jesus Christ, you come to a person.
Ravi Zacharias
Wonder is retained by wise pondering.
Ravi Zacharias
The cross stands as a mystery because it is foreign to everything we exalt- self over principle, power over meekness, the quick fix over the long haul, cover-up over confession, escapism over confrontation, conform over sacrifice, feeling over commitment, legality over justice, the body over the spirit, anger over forgiveness, man over God.
Ravi Zacharias
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.
Ravi Zacharias
The New Atheists are not open or willing to go where the evidence leads, unless that evidence sustains their own naturalistic assumptions. They have covertly reduced all philosophical thought and deduction to-- ironically-fait h!
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
In churches, we live with the danger of one-way verbal traffic.
Ravi Zacharias
God put enough into the world to make faith in Him a reasonable thing. But He left enough out to make it impossible to live by reason alone.
Ravi Zacharias
Freedom can be destroyed, not just by its retraction, but also by its abuse.
Ravi Zacharias
In his book Modern Times, the historian Paul Johnson referred to Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini as the three devils of the twentieth century. Interestingly, Nietzshean dogma influenced each of them.
