The devil will let a preacher prepare a sermon if it will keep him from preparing himself.
Vance HavnerThere was a time when ministers spoke forthrightly and named things. We don't name anything anymore. Finney had a sermon on How to Preach so as to Convert Nobody. He said 'Preach on sin but never mention any of the sins of your congregation - that will do it.'
Vance HavnerIf you are a Christian, you are not a citizen of this world trying to get to heaven; you are a citizen of heaven making your way through this world.
