I do not understand Christian people who are not thrilled by the whole idea of revival. . . . If you want a perfect exposition of 1 Corinthians 1:25-31, read books on revival.

Let me seek Thee in longing, let me long for Thee in seeking; let me find Thee in love, and love Thee in finding.
– Anselm of Canterbury –
The greatness of a man’s power is the measure of his surrender.
– William Booth –
He that willingly submits to the cross, to him its whole burden is changed into a sweet assurance of divine comfort. And the more the flesh is broken down by the cross, the more the spirit is strengthened by inward grace. It is not in man by nature to bear the cross, to love the cross, to deny self, to bring the body into subjection, and willingly to endure suffering. If thou look to thyself, thou canst accomplish nothing of all this. But if thou trust in the Lord, strength shall be given thee from heaven, and the world and the flesh shall be made subject to thy rule. Set thyself, therefore, to bear manfully the cross of thy Lord, who out of love was crucified for thee.
– Thomas a’Kempis –
The secret of Christianity is not asking Jesus into your heart; it is Jesus asking us into His.

Nobody can do as much damage to the church of God as the man who is within its walls, but not within its life.
– Charles Spurgeon –
As long as we are content to live without revival, we will.
