People who only listen to preachers have a tendency to put them on a pedestal, but those who live with preachers recognize that they are just common men.

This is evangelicalism today: sensual, carnal, unconverted people that have just enough deceptive religion to drive them straight into Hell! Are you that kind of person? Or do you have new affections?

The truth is this: I am a Southern Baptist, and the great majority of Southern Baptists are lost.

If the devil walks in and starts pointing out all kinds of things about you, you yawn. And you go, 'You don’t even know the half of it.'

Most of you live your life on flimsy little songs, not upon the word of God.

We cannot convince a man to believe any more than we can raise the dead. Such things are the work of God's Spirit. Men are brought to faith only through the supernatural working of God, and He has promised to work-not through human wisdom or intellectual expertise, but through the preaching of Christ crucified and resurrected from the dead!

How could we have such a low view of the gospel of Jesus Christ that we have to manipulate men psychologically to get them to come down and pray a prayer? …How many times have I heard evangelists say, “It’ll only take five minutes.”? No my dear friend, it will take your life–all of it!
