Leonard Ravenhill - Holiness (Sermon Jam)

Leonard Ravenhill (June 18, 1907 – November 27, 1994) Next video:    • Lee Stoneking on Prayer (Sermon Jam)   Tozer said this about Ravenhill: "Those who know of Leonard Ravenhill recognize in him the religious specialist, the man sent from God to battle the priests of Baal on their own mountain top, to shame the careless priest at the altar, to face the false prophet, and to warn the people who are being led astray by him. Such a man as this is not an easy companion. He insists on being a Christian all the time and everywhere. That marks him out as different. Why do we have men of such fiery swords as Ravenhill? They are sick inside when they see the children of heaven acting like the sons of earth. To such men as these, the church owes a debt too heavy to pay. Some Ravenhill quotes: "There's one thing we need above everything else; it's something we don't talk about these days. We need a mighty avalanche of conviction of sin." "We're living in an unprecedented day (when) evil is no longer evil. We've changed the terminology-- iniquity is now infirmity; wickedness is now weakness; devilry is now deficiency." "I believe every church is either supernatural or superficial. I don't believe there's any middle ground. How can you have a dead service with a living Christ?
