One Single Soul – JC Ryle
One single soul saved shall outlive and outweigh all the kingdoms of the world.
– JC Ryle –
We Are Smug to the Lostness of Men – Leonard Ravenhill
We Christians are debtors to all men at all times in all places, but we are so smug to the lostness of men. We’ve been “living in Laodicea”—lax, loose, lustful, and lazy. Why is there this criminal indifference to the lostness of men? Our condemnation is that we know how to live better than we are living.
– Leonard Ravenhill –
Talking About the First Coming of Christ – Oswald J. Smith
We talk of the Second Coming; half the world has never heard of the first.
– Oswald J. Smith –

Is Your Gospel Touching Others? – Curry R. Blake

Delighted to be Brought to Your Knees – Billy Sunday
The backslider likes the preaching that wouldn’t hit the side of a house, while the real disciple is delighted when the truth brings him to his knees.

Conviction, Repentance, Obedience, and Humility – Charles Finney
Revival is a renewed conviction of sin and repentance, followed by an intense desire to live in obedience to God. It is giving up one’s will to God in deep humility.
– Charles Finney –
Don’t Preach Repentance Unless … – Joseph Parker
The man whose little sermon is “repent” sets himself against his age, and will for the time being be battered mercilessly by the age whose moral tone he challenges. There is but one end for such a man—”off with his head!” You had better not try to preach repentance until you have pledged your head to heaven.
– Joseph Parker –
