“I believe that the imperative need of the day is not simply revival, but a radical reformation that will go to the root of our moral and spiritual maladies and deal with causes rather than with consequences, with the disease rather than with symptoms.” NeedsBelieveSpiritualReligionI BelieveCausesDealsMoralChristianityDiseaseConsequenceRootsRadicalSymptomsImperativesRevivalReformationMalady Author:Aiden Wilson Tozer
“I wish more of us could understand that our increasing isolation, no matter how much it seems to express pride and self-affirmation, is not the answer to our problems. Rather, the answer is a revival of our ancient commitment to God, who rules over all the peoples of the world and exalts no one over any other, and to the moral and spiritual values which were once legendary in America. We must reach out our hand in friendship both to those who would befriend us and those who would be our enemy.” WorldSelfMatterProblemHandsSeemsWould BeAmericaSpiritualValuesWishAnswersMoralEnemyPrideCommitmentAncientIsolationReach OutAffirmationRevivalCommitment To GodLegendarySpiritual ValuesSelf Affirmation Author:Arthur Ashe
“Any church which forsakes the regular and uniform for the periodical and spasmodic service of God, is doomed to decay; any church which relies for its spiritual strength and growth entirely upon seasons of "revival," will very soon have no genuine revivals to rely on. Our holy God will not conform His blessings to man's moods and moral caprice. If a church is declining, it may require a "revival" to restore it; but what need was there of its declining?” IfsMenNeedsMaySpiritualGrowthChurchMoralHolyBlessingSeasonsMoodGenuineGods WillRelyDecayUniformsDoomedConformRevivalForsakeCapriceSpiritual StrengthHoly God Author:Theodore L.

“There is, however, in art another kind of external similarity which is founded on a fundamental truth. When there is a similarity of inner tendency in the whole moral and spiritual atmosphere, a similarity of ideals, at first closely pursued but later lost to sight, a similarity in the inner feeling of any one period to that of another, the logical result will be a revival of the external forms which served to express those inner feelings in an earlier age.” FirstsKindArtWholeFeelingsAgeSpiritualFormLostResultsMoralPeriodsIdealsSightFundamentalsTendenciesAtmosphereLogicalRevivalPursuedSimilarityInner Feelings Book:Concerning the spiritual in art Source: Concerning the spiritual in art
“Menaced by collectivist trends, we must seek revival of our strength in the spiritual foundations which are the bedrock of our republic. Democracy is the outgrowth of the religious conviction of the sacredness of every human life. On the religious side, its highest embodiment is the Bible; on the political side, the Constitution.” HumansSpiritualPoliticalSidesReligiousDemocracyHighestConstitutionFoundationConvictionHuman LifeRepublicTrendsRevivalEmbodimentSacrednessBedrock Author:Herbert Hoover
“...revivals (or any other spiritual gifts and graces) come only to those who want them badly enough. It may be said without qualification that every man is as holy and as full of the Spirit as he wants to be. He may not be as full as he wishes he were, but he is most certainly as full as he wants to be.” MenWantMaySaidEnoughSpiritualSpiritWishGraceHolyEvery ManRevivalQualificationsSpiritual Gifts Author:Aiden Wilson Tozer
“There is need of a great revival of spiritual life, of truly fervent devotion to our Lord Jesus, of entire consecration to His service. It is only in a church in which this spirit of revival has at least begun, that there is any hope of radical change in the relation of the majority of our Christian people to mission work.” PeopleNeedsChristianSpiritualSpiritJesusChurchChristianityLordRelationMajorityMissionsDevotionRadicalSpiritual LifeRevivalOur LordFerventRevival PrayerConsecrationRadical Change Author:Andy Murray
