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 RavenhillChristians don't tell lies, they just go to church and sing them. How many times have you stood and sang, โTake my life and let it beโ when you haven't given Him one ounce?
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.
Leonard RavenhillNo man is greater than his prayer life. The pastor who is not praying is playing; the people who are not praying are straying. We have many organizers, but few agonizers; many players and payers, few pray-ers; many singers, few clingers; lots of pastors, few wrestlers; many fears, few tears; much fashion, little passion; many interferers, few intercessors; many writers, but few fighters. Failing here, we fail everywhere.
