Voir l’univers
Le premier regard de l’homme jeté sur l’univers n’y découvre que variété, diversité, multiplicité des phénomènes. Que ce regard soit illuminé par la science,—par la science qui rapproche l’homme de Dieu,—et la simplicité et l’unité brillent de toutes parts.

Selon Apocalypse 21:1-5
John MacArthur, The Battle for the Beginning, 2001, p. 45.
According to Revelation 21:1-5, God will immediately create a new heaven and a new earth (cf. Isa. 65:17). Do we really believe He can do that, or will it take another umpteen billion years of evolutionary process to get the new heaven and new earth in working order? If we really believe He can destroy this universe in a split second and immediately create a whole new one, what’s the problem with believing the Genesis account of a six-day creation in the first place? If He can do it at the end of the age, why is it so hard to believe the biblical account of what happened in the beginning?

La Parole de Dieu
JOHN MACARTHUR, TRUTH FOR TODAY, 2001
... God’s Word, which is all about Jesus Christ, can do for us what we cannot do for ourselves. We are sinful and unable to remedy our condition, but from God comes the incredible, limitless power that can transform our lives.

La persévérance
Louis Berkhof, Théologie systématique, 1998, p. 546.
Perseverance may be defined as that continuous operation of the Holy Spirit in the believer, by which the work of divine grace that is begun in the heart, is continued and brought to completion. It is because God never forsakes His work that believers continue to stand to the very end.
Louis Berkhof, Systematic Theology, 1998, p. 546.

Jésus au centre
ALISTAIR BEGG
PASTEUR ÉCOSSAIS, ÉVANGÉLISTE
In the Old Testament, we have Jesus predicted. In the Gospels, we have Jesus revealed. In the Acts, we have Jesus preached. In the Epistles, we have Jesus explained. In the revelation, we have Jesus expected.

Le mot patience
William Barclay, Letters of Peter and Jude, St. Andrews, 1960, p. 258.
The word [patience] never means the spirit which sits with folded hands and simply bears things. It is victorious endurance (and) constancy under trial. It is Christian steadfastness, the brave and courageous acceptance of everything life can do to us, and the transmuting of even the worst into another step on the upward way. It is the courageous and triumphant ability to bear things, which enables a man to pass breaking point and not to break, and always to greet the unseen with a cheer.
William Barclay, Letters of Peter and Jude, St. Andrews, 1960, p. 258.

La régénération
C.J. Mahaney, Pastoral Leadership for Manhood and Womanhood, 2002, p. 196.
Once regenerated, we are delivered from the penalty of sin and from the authoritative power of sin, but not from the continued presence and influence of sin. Sin is no longer reigning, but it is remaining.
C.J. Mahaney, Pastoral Leadership for Manhood and Womanhood, 2002, p. 196.

Contempler l'univers
Quand, avec des télescopes audacieux, je contemple les étoiles et les planètes anciennes et nouvellement découvertes ; quand, avec d'excellents microscopes, je discerne la subtilité inimitable de l'œuvre curieuse de la nature ; et quand, en un mot, à l'aide de couteaux anatomiques et à la lumière de fours chimiques, j'étudie le livre de la nature, je me trouve souvent réduit à m'exclamer avec le Psalmiste : Que tes œuvres sont multiples, Seigneur ! C'est dans la sagesse que Tu les as toutes faites !

Ce que la Bible a fourni au monde
ROBERT L. SHORT
THE BIBLE ACCORDING TO PEANUTS, 1990
The Bible has furnished, and still furnishes, the basic, most fundamental building blocks of Western civilization. Therefore, this is true: If you live in this civilization and don’t have a fair knowledge of the Bible, you are basically uneducated. You may know a lot of things, but you won’t have the foggiest notion of where all these things came from, what they all mean, how they are interrelated, what to use them for, and generally what makes them tick.

Dieu parle
Dieu peut tonner ses ordres depuis le mont Sinaï et les hommes peuvent avoir peur, mais rester au fond d'eux-mêmes exactement comme ils étaient auparavant. Mais qu'un homme voie une fois son Dieu dans l'arène comme un Homme - souffrant, tenté, transpirant et agonisant, mourant finalement d'une mort criminelle - et il est bien difficile de ne pas être touché.

Voici l'évangile.
David Platt
This is the gospel. The just and loving Creator of the universe has looked upon hopelessly sinful people and sent His Son, God in the flesh, to bear His wrath against sin on the cross and to show His power over sin in the resurrection so that all who trust in Him will be reconciled to God forever.
David Platt

Un véritable ministère de discipline

A true discipling ministry will include every aspect of winning people to the Savior, building them up in their faith, and equipping them to win and build others.

La discipline des autres
Allen Hadidian
Discipling others is the process by which a Christian with a life worth emulating commits himself for an extended period of time to a few individuals who have been won to Christ, the purpose being to aid and guide their growth and maturity, and equip them to reproduce themselves in a third spiritual generation.

Les meilleurs sermons
Charles H. Spurgeon
The best sermons are the sermons which are most full of Christ. A sermon without Christ it is an awful, a horrible thing; it is an empty well; it is a cloud without rain; it is a tree twice dead, plucked by the roots. It is an abominable thing to give men stones for bread, and scorpions for eggs, and yet they do so who preach not Jesus. A sermon without Christ! As well talk of a loaf of bread without any flour in it. How can it feed the soul? Men die and perish because Christ is not there, and yet His glorious gospel is the easiest thing to preach, and the sweetest thing to preach; there is most variety in it, there is more attractiveness in it than in all the world besides!
Charles H. Spurgeon

Donner son cœur à Dieu
J.C. Ryle
If you cannot give your heart to God now, how is it possible you could enjoy God’s heaven hereafter? Heaven is unceasing godliness; it is to be in the presence of God and His Christ for evermore. God is the light, the food, the air of heaven. It is an eternal Sabbath. To serve God is heaven’s employment, to talk with God is heaven’s occupation. Oh, sinners, sinners, could you be happy there? To which of all the saints would you join yourselves? By whose side would you go and sit down, with whom of all the prophets and apostles would you love to converse? Surely it would be a wearisome thing to you; surely you would soon want to go forth and join your friends outside.

Une église qui est occupée à se servir d'elle-même
J. Delany, The Purpose of the Church.
A church that is busy ministering to itself, building itself up, edifying itself, and reaches no farther than its own four walls is self-centered. Training, edification and equipping of the saints is not an end itself, but is a means to an end. God’s goal is that the church be built up SO THAT it can effectively function in the world and carry out Christ’s will on earth.
J. Delany, The Purpose of the Church.

Quand tu pries devant les autres
William Gurnall (1616-1679)
When thou prayest before others, observe on what thou bestowest thy chief care and zeal, whether in the externals or internals of prayer, that which is exposed to the eye and ear of men, or that which should be prepared for the eye and ear of God; the devout posture of thy body, or the inward devotion of thy soul; the pomp of thy words or the power of thy faith; the agitation of thy bodily spirits in the vehemency of thy voice, or the fervency of thy spirit in heartbreaking affections. These inward workings of the soul in prayer, are the very soul of prayer.
William Gurnall (1616-1679)

Le péché intérieur reste en nous
Jerry Bridges, The Pursuit of Holiness, 1996, p. 60-61.
Indwelling sin remains in us even though it has been dethroned. And though it has been overthrown and weakened, its nature has not changed. Sin is still hostile to God and cannot submit to His law (Romans 8:7). Thus we have an implacable enemy of righteousness right in our own hearts. What diligence and watchfulness is required of us when this enemy in our souls is ready to oppose every effort to do good!
Jerry Bridges, The Pursuit of Holiness,1996, p. 60-61.

Les tentations
Thomas Brooks
Temptations are rather hopeful evidences that thy estate is good, that thou art dear to God, and that it shall go well with thee forever, than otherwise. God had but one Son without corruption, but He had none without temptation.

La puissance de la prière
Lorsque vous dites une prière, Il (l'Esprit Saint) est dans chaque mot de celle-ci, et comme un feu sacré, il pénètre chaque mot.
Jean de Cronstadt
When you say a prayer, He (The Holy Spirit) is in every word of it, and like a Holy Fire, penetrates each word.

La vraie paix
John Gerstner, Theology for Everyman, Moody, 1965, chapitre 8.
If…a person feels peace and knows that it results from faith that Christ satisfied divine justice for him and converted his soul and united him to the Saviour, the peace he feels is genuine since it rests on the truth of God.
John Gerstner, Theology for Everyman, Moody, 1965, Chapter 8.

L'excellence incomparable du Fils de Dieu.
John Piper, Desiring God, 1996, p. 94.
We must see and feel the incomparable excellency of the Son of God. Incomparable because in Him meet infinite glory and lowest humility, infinite majesty and transcendent meekness, deepest reverence toward God and equality with God, infinite worthiness of good and greatest patience to suffer evil, supreme dominion and exceeding obedience, divine self-sufficiency and childlike trust.
John Piper, Desiring God, 1996, p. 94.

Dans la souffrance intense
Scott Hafemann, 2 Corinthiens, Zondervan, www.zondervan.com, 2000, p. 76.
Anybody can worship Santa Claus. But hanging in there with God in the midst of intense suffering, as Christ hung on the cross, magnifies the worth of God as the one who sustains us. God’s goal in suffering, therefore, is to teach us that in life and in death, as in all eternity, He Himself is all we ultimately need.
Scott Hafemann, 2 Corinthians, Zondervan, www.zondervan.com, 2000, p. 76.

Dieu nous parle
PETER MARSHALL SR.
ANCIEN AUMÔNIER DU SÉNAT AMÉRICAIN
"LE CONTACT DE LA FOI", SERMON RADIODIFFUSÉ, 1949
God speaks sometimes through our circumstances and guides us, closing doors as well as opening them. He will let you know what you must do, and what you must be. He is waiting for you to touch Him. The hand of faith is enough. Your trembling fingers can reach Him as He passes. Reach out your faith— touch Him. He will not ask, “who touched me?” He will know.
PETER MARSHALL SR.
FORMER CHAPLAIN OF THE U.S. SENATE
“THE TOUCH OF FAITH,” RADIO BROADCAST SERMON, 1949

La conscience
Le Seigneur Jésus-Christ a donné le modèle approprié dans l'Évangile de Jean, chapitre huit, verset trente-deux : "Vous connaîtrez la vérité et la vérité vous rendra libres." Ce qu'est cette vérité, nous le voyons dans le verset précédent, "Ma Parole". La conception de Dieu va de la vérité à l'expérience, et non de l'expérience à la vérité ! La formule : "J'ai eu une expérience. Je trouve des expériences comme la mienne dans la Bible. Par conséquent, mon expérience est scripturaire" est dangereusement trompeuse.
George Gardiner, The Corinthian Catastrophe, 1974, p. 58.
The Lord Jesus Christ gave the proper pattern in the Gospel of John, chapter eight, verse thirty-two, “Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.” What that truth is, is seen in the previous verse, “My Word.” God’s design is from truth to experience, not from experience to truth! The formula: “I have had an experience. I find experiences like mine in the Bible. Therefore my experience is Scriptural” is dangerously misleading.
George Gardiner, The Corinthian Catastrophe, 1974, p. 58.

La source de mon autorité
John Piper
The source of my authority in this pulpit is not…my wisdom; nor is it a private revelation granted to me beyond the revelation of Scripture. My words have authority only insofar as they are the repetition, unfolding and proper application of the words of Scripture. I have authority only when I stand under authority. And our corporate symbol of that truth is the sound of your Bibles opening to the text. My deep conviction about preaching is that a pastor must show the people that what he is saying was already said or implied in the Bible. If it cannot be shown it has no special authority.
John Piper

L'incapacité à distinguer la doctrine
J.C. Ryle
Inability to distinguish doctrine is spreading far and wide, and so long as the preacher is “clever” and “earnest,” hundreds seem to think it must be all right, and call you dreadfully “narrow and uncharitable” if you hint that he is unsound!
J.C. Ryle
