The church as we know it today seems a million miles from the New Testament church. That may be a great generalization, but I will stand on it. There is a gulf between our average Christianity and the church of New Testament that makes the Grand Canyon look like a cavity in someone's tooth.

I wish, in America, (that) we were as concerned about separation from church and sin as we are about separation between church and state. Church and sin-- it's a monstrous problem.

Preaching is not a profession, it's a passion! If a man can't preach with passion he shouldn't preach at all.

I doubt that more than two percent of professing Christians in the United States are truly born again.

Most Christians pray to be blessed. Few pray to be broken.

What good does it do to speak in tongues on Sunday if you have been using your tongue during the week to curse and gossip?

A man who is intimate with God will never be intimidated by men.
