Ravi Zacharias


Frederick Antony Ravi Kumar Zacharias was born in India in 1946 and immigrated to Canada with his family twenty years later. While pursuing a career in business management, his interest in theology grew; subsequently, he pursued this study during his undergraduate education. He received his Masters of Divinity from Trinity International University in Deerfield, Illinois. Well-versed in the disciplines of comparative religions, cults, and philosophy, he held the chair of Evangelism and Contemporary Thought at Alliance Theological Seminary for three and a half years.

He has multiple other doctorates and degrees from a variety of colleges and seminaries.

For 35 years Ravi Zacharias has spoken all over the world and in numerous universities, notably Harvard, Princeton, and Oxford University. He has addressed writers of the peace accord in South Africa, the president's cabinet and parliament in Peru, and military officers at the Lenin Military Academy and the Center for Geopolitical Strategy in Moscow. At the invitation of the President of Nigeria, he addressed delegates at the First Annual Prayer Breakfast for African Leaders held in Mozambique.

Dr. Zacharias has direct contact with key leaders, senators, congressmen, and governors who consult him on an ongoing basis. He has addressed the Florida Legislature and the Governor’s Prayer Breakfast in Texas, and has twice spoken at the Annual Prayer Breakfast at the United Nations in New York, which marks the beginning of the UN General Assembly each year. As the 2008 Honorary Chairman of the National Day of Prayer, he gave addresses at the White House, the Pentagon, and The Cannon House.

Commentator Chuck Colson referred to Zacharias as "the great apologist of our time."

La verdad, por tanto, es el hilo que separa la verdadera espiritualidad de la falsa. La espiritualidad no asigna relevancia a la vida; por el contrario, es la verdad lo que le otorga relevancia a la espiritualidad. No obstante, ¿dónde encontramos el hilo de la verdad? Bueno, Jesús nos dio la respuesta cuando dijo: «Si se mantie nen fieles a mis enseñanzas, serán realmente mis discípulos; y conocerán la verdad, y la verdad los hará libres» (Juan 8:31-32). Él también afirmó: «Yo soy el camino, la verdad y la vida» (Juan 14:6). En últimas, el hilo más importante que mantendrá unidos a todos los demás es que Jesús sea la verdad en tu vida. La Palabra es la verdad, es Cristo, y la verdadera libertad está inextricablemente conectada a él. Si rompes ese diseño, pierdes la vida. Si lo honras, encontrarás la verdadera libertad.

Morality was never a means of salvation for anyone. The moral threads of a life were intended to reflect and honor the God we serve; they are not a means of entering Heaven.

Teaching at best beckons us to morality, but it is not in itself efficacious. Teaching is like a mirror. It can show you if your face is dirty, but the mirror will not wash your face.

Our souls yearn for a wonder that reaches beyond the dimensions of our finite minds, and if we don’t allow a wonder toward God, we’ll search for it elsewhere, in false gods. . . .The older you get, the more it takes to fill your heart with wonder. . .and only God is big enough to do that.

Someone has said that our sin scorches us most after we have received forgiveness, and not before. Once you realize how much you’ve been forgiven, you see how great that forgiveness really is.

Uno de los golpes más sutiles pero drásticos de nuestra época es el modo en que algunos grupos de interés han luchado para alcanzar ciertas posiciones. Su táctica, astuta pero contraria a la lógica, consiste en redefinir palabras y prostituir ideas. Hechizados por los eslóganes, hemos trivializado aquello que es serio y exaltado aquello que es trivial porque nos hemos saltado los pasos básicos y necesarios de la argumentación lógica. Cuando violamos la razón y el lenguaje podemos perder de vista la realidad.

People in pain may look for comfort and explanations. People disappointed in pleasure look for purpose.

Feelings follow belief; belief, then, should follow truth.

And in our search for morality and happiness outside of God, we have effectively lost all three—God, morality, and happiness.

But disappointment in pleasure is a completely different thing. While pain can often be seen as a means to a greater end, pleasure is seen as an end in itself. And when pleasure has run its course, a sense of despondency can creep into one’s soul that may often lead to self-destruction. Pain can often be temporary, but disappointment in pleasure gives rise to emptiness—not just for a moment, but for life.

When God puts a broken life back together, He removes the scars because He builds from the inside out. And when God steadies a faltering life, He puts you on His footing.
