T.A. McMahon
It is hard for anyone who has a personal, intimate relationship with Jesus Christ to accept that the world hates Him, this One whom we love so much... I thought of the Lord of Glory hanging upon the cross on Calvary's hill, with the mockers about Him. Yet He died for them--and for those who mock Him still.
T.A. McMahon
John Polkinghorne
Theology differs from science in many respects, because of its different subject matter, a personal God who cannot be put to the test in the way that the impersonal physical world can be subjected to experimental enquiry. Yet science and theology have this in common, that each can be, and should be defended as being investigations of what is, the search for increasing verisimilitude in our understanding of reality.

Lee Roberson
Know the promises of God. The great and mighty promises of our Father mean nothing to most people because they do not know what they are.

I never was without some religious principles. I never doubted, for instance, the existence of the Deity; that He made the world, and governed it by His Providence; that the most acceptable service of God was the doing good to man; that our souls are immortal; and that all crime will be punished, and virtue rewarded, either here or hereafter.

John MacArthur, Matthieu 24-28, Moody, 1989, p. 341.
The true convert is a disciple, a person who has accepted and submitted himself to Jesus Christ, whatever that may mean or demand. The truly converted person is filled with the Holy Spirit and given a new nature that yearns to obey and worship the Lord who has saved him. Even when he is disobedient, he knows he is living against the grain of his new nature, which is to honor and please the Lord. He loves righteousness and hates sin, including his own.
John MacArthur, Matthew 24-28, Moody, 1989, p. 341.

Be intentional with thankfulness. It’s one of your most powerful guards of your mind and heart. Practice it until it’s your automatic response to disappointment, loss, and rejection. ”What ifs" can trap you in a never-ending maze, but gratefulness opens the door to grace, healing, and what's next.

Sam Storms, One Thing, Christian Focus, Enjoying God Ministries, 2004, p.85-86.
There is a sense in which the human soul has caved in on itself and is now held captive by a fixation with its own states and conditions and concerns. The soul has become parasitic on itself, feeding on its needs and cravings by excessive introspection and elaborate attempts to elevate its sense of self-worth. Your soul was never meant for this. You were designed for something better. You were built for the contemplation of something infinitely more complex, something incomparably more fascinating than your own “self.” You were created for the joyful contemplation of God.
Sam Storms, One Thing, Christian Focus, Enjoying God Ministries, 2004, p.85-86.

The power of choosing good and evil is within the reach of all.
Origen
Stephen Charnock
Without faith we are not fit to desire mercy, without humility we are not fit to receive it, without affection we are not fit to value it, without sincerity we are not fit to improve it. Times of extremity contribute to the growth and exercise of these qualifications.

William Gurnall
He that is impatient, and cannot wait on God for a mercy, will not easily submit to Him in a denial.

John Hagee
Meekness enables us to be led by the Spirit of God.

George V. Wigram
Christ's yesterday was the accomplishment of redemption,--His tomorrow is the having His Church with Himself in glory. But He is a living Christ for today.
George V. Wigram
John McArthur, 1 Corinthians, Moody, 1984
The simplicity of the gospel gives what the complexity of human wisdom promises but never delivers.
John McArthur, 1 Corinthians, Moody, 1984
William Law
God seeth different abilities and frailties of men, which may move His goodness to be merciful to their different improvements in virtue.
William Law
C.S. Lewis
Sainthood lies in the habit of referring the smallest actions to God. Faith is the art of holding on to things your reason has once accepted in spite of your changing moods.
C.S. Lewis
Charles Spurgeon
God gave me this great book to preach from, and if He has put anything in it you think is not fit, go and complain to Him, not to me. I am simply his servant, and if His errand that I am to tell is objectionable, I cannot help it. Let me tell you, the reason why many of our churches are declining is just because this doctrine has not been preached.
Charles Spurgeon
Samuel Rutherford
I will charge my soul to believe and wait for Him, and will follow His providence, and not go before it, nor stay behind it.
Samuel Rutherford
Thomas Merton
The very contradictions in my life are in some ways signs of God's mercy to me.
Thomas Merton
John MacArthur, 2 Corinthiens, Moody Publishers, 2003, p. 176-177.
Believers will not be judged for sin at the judgment seat of Christ. Every sin of every believer was judged at the Cross, when God “made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him” (2 Cor. 5:21). At the cross “Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us” (Gal. 3:13). As our substitute, “He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness” (1 Peter 2:24); “He, having offered one sacrifice for sins for all time, sat down at the right hand of God” (Heb. 10:12; cf. Eph. 1:7;4:32; 1 John 2:1-2). Because of His atoning sacrifice on our behalf, “There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus… Who is the one who condemns? Christ Jesus is He who died, yes, rather who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us “(Rom. 8:1,34). But though salvation is not by works, works are the inevitable result of true salvation.
John MacArthur, 2 Corinthians, Moody Publishers, 2003, p. 176-177.

Anything is a blessing which makes us pray.
Charles Spurgeon
Richard Sibbes
There are no men more careful of the use of means than those that are surest of a good issue and conclusion, for the one stirs up diligence in the other. Assurance of the end stirs up diligence in the means. For the soul of a believing Christian knows that God has decreed both.
Richard Sibbes

Thomas Adams
We spend our years with sighing; it is a valley of tears; but death is the funeral of all our sorrows.
Thomas Adams
Neil T. Anderson
The essence of temptation is the invitation to live independently of God.
Neil T. Anderson
Henry Drummond
Many men would be religious if they knew where to begin; many would be more religious if they were sure where it would end. It is not indifference that keeps some men from God, but ignorance. "Good Master, what must I do to inherit Eternal Life?" is still the deepest question of the age.
Henry Drummond
William Penn
God is better served in resisting a temptation to evil than in many formal prayers.
William Penn
L'argent ne reste jamais avec moi. Il me brûlerait s'il le faisait. Je le jette de mes mains dès que possible, de peur qu'il ne s'introduise dans mon cœur.
John Wesley, ecclésiastique et théologien
Money never stays with me. It would burn me if it did. I throw it out of my hands as soon as possible, lest it should find its way into my heart.
John Wesley, Cleric and Theologian
