John the Baptist never performed any miracles. Yet, he was greater than any of the Old Testament prophets.

I read of the revivals of the past, great sweeping revivals where thousands of men were swept into the Kingdom of God. I read about Charles G. Finney winning his thousands and his hundreds of thousands of souls to Christ. Then I picked up a book and read the messages of Charles G. Finney and the message of Jonathan Edwards on 'Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God,' and I said, 'No wonder men trembled; no wonder they fell in the altars and cried out in repentance and sobbed their way to the throne of grace!'

If Jesus came back today, he wouldn’t cleanse the temple, he’d cleanse the pulpit.

I believe every church is either supernatural or superficial. I don't believe there's any middle ground.

If Jesus had preached the same message that ministers preach today, He would never have been crucified.

When you're born in fire, smoke will never do.

You can't develop character by reading books. You develop it from conflict.
