"If your heart takes more
pleasure in reading novels, or watching TV, or going to the movies, or
talking to friends, rather than just sitting alone with God and
embracing Him, sharing His cares and His burdens, weeping and
rejoicing with Him, then how are you going to handle forever and ever
in His presence...? You'd be bored to tears in heaven, if you're not
ecstatic about God now!"
- Keith Green
-
"In the Irish Revival of 1859, people became so weak that they
could not get back to their homes. Men and women would fall by the
wayside and would be found hours later pleading with God to save their
souls. They felt that they were slipping into hell and that nothing
else in life mattered but to get right with God... To them eternity
meant everything. Nothing else was of any consequence. They felt that
if God did not have mercy on them and save them, they were doomed for
all time to come."
- Oswald J. Smith -
"The chief danger of the Church today is that it is trying to get
on the same side as the world, instead of turning the world upside
down. Our Master expects us to accomplish results, even if they bring
opposition and conflict. Anything is better than compromise, apathy,
and paralysis. God give to us an intense cry for the old-time power of
the Gospel and the Holy Ghost!"
- A. B. Simpson -
"A biblically balanced view of worship must take into account both
God's transcendence and his immanence, his exaltation and his
nearness, his majestic holiness and his immeasurable love. This
balance is not always easy to maintain. Churches that focus on divine
transcendence are in danger of making God appear distant, aloof,
unfriendly, unloving, devoid of grace. Churches that focus on God's
immanence sometimes lose sight of his majesty and purity, his hatred
of sin, and the consequent seriousness of any divine-human encounter.
To maintain this balance, we must go back again and again to the
Scriptures themselves so that we may please God in worship rather than
merely acting on our own intuitions."
"I Repent of ever having recorded one single song, and ever having
performed one concert, if my music, and more importantly, my life has
not provoked you into Godly jealousy or to sell out more completely to
Jesus!"
- Keith Green -
"...preaching the Gospel is
not a "calling," it is a command. Jesus said, "Go into all the world and preach
the Gospel to every creature."
-
Ray Comfort -
"Where there is no real soul-burden for sinners, there will be no
revival..."
- J. W. Mahood -
" Oh,
to realize that souls, precious, never dying souls, are perishing all
around us, going out into the blackness of darkness and despair,
eternally lost, and yet to feel no anguish, shed no tears, know no
travail! How little we know of the compassion of Jesus!"
- Oswald J.
Smith -
"By the time the average Christian gets his temperature up to normal,
everybody thinks he has a FEVER!"
-
Watchman Nee -
"What
a man is on his knees before God in secret, that will he be before men:
that much and no more"
- Fred Mitchell -
"How long will it take us to learn that our shortest route to the man
next door is by way of God's throne?
-
A. T. Pierson -
"The Church gives more time, thought, and
money to recreation and sport than to prayer"
- Samuel Chadwick -
I would rather train twenty men to pray, then a
thousand to preach; - A minister's highest mission ought to be to
teach his people to pray"
- H. Macgregor -
"This generation of Christians is responsible for this generation of
sinners"
-
Keith Green -
"GOD Is most Glorified in us, When We are Most Satisfied in Him"
-
John Piper -
"The true man of God is heartsick, grieved at the worldliness of the
Church...grieved at the toleration of sin in the Church, grieved at the
prayerlessness in the Church. He is disturbed that the corporate prayer of
the Church no longer pulls down the strongholds of the devil"
-
Leonard Ravenhill -
"The Church gives more time, thought, and money to recreation and sport than
to prayer"
-
Samuel Chadwick -
“Some people do
not like to hear much of repentance; but I think it is so necessary that if
I should die in the pulpit, I would desire to die preaching repentance, and
if out of the pulpit I would desire to die practicing
it”
- Matthew Henry -
