Revival Addresses
“Salvation begins in thinking. People say that Christianity is blind faith; not a bit of it. Christianity is a rational faith that comes from honest, candid, close thought. … Men often say to me, ‘I am not a Christian, because I think for myself.’ My dear friend, you are not a Christian because you don’t think for yourself. You are bound not to think. You deliberately refuse to read every book that would make you think. At a meeting like this you will go out when the preaching becomes too pointed and you are compelled to think. If I could get you men and women who are out of Christ to think for thirty consecutive minutes, I would get you saved.” Here are 17 of Torrey’s addresses, designed to get us to think.
