They're called in the Scripture the Beatitudes. You know why they're called the Beatitudes without being prestigious? Because they should be the attitudes of every believer. That's the normal Christian life, not the abnormal Christian life. The normal Christian life is holiness.
Leonard RavenhillPaul never glamorized the gospel! It is not success, but sacrifice! It's not a glamous gospel ,but a bloody gospel, a gory gospel, and a sacrificial gospel! 5 minutes inside eternity and we will wish that we had sacrificed more!!! Wept more, bled more, grieved more, loved more, prayed more, given more!!!
Leonard RavenhillNobody stood by Jesus. Maybe nobody will stand by you. It's a lonely life, but it's a glorious life.
Leonard RavenhillThe attitude of the average Christian today is relax and be raptured. But He is coming... and when God gets angry youยดve no idea what it is. Like a thousand volcanoes exploding. He has appointed a day in which He is going to judge the world and the poor blindworld doesnยดt know much about it and the poor blind church doesnยดt think much about it now.
