Thomas Carlyle
The unchangeable Christ is the revelation of the unchangeable God.
Thomas Carlyle
Thomas Fuller
Prayer is the key for the day; the lock of the night.
Thomas Fuller
Ils traitent avec la lettre extérieure, mais il communique un goût intérieur pour la vérité, par lequel nous en percevons la saveur et l’esprit. Le plus ignorant des hommes devient un érudit chevronné dans l’école de la grâce quand, par son Saint-Esprit, le Seigneur Jésus lui dévoile les mystères du royaume et lui accorde l’onction divine qui permet de contempler l’invisible."
Charles Spurgeon
Oswald Chambers
Worship and intercession must go together; one is impossible without the other.
Oswald Chambers
William Gurnall
When thoughts or inclinations contrary to the will and ways of God creep in, many dear Christians mistake these miserable orphans for their own children, and take upon themselves the full responsibility for these carnal passions. So deftly does the devil slip his own thoughts into the saints’ bosom that by the time they begin to whimper, he is already out of sight. And the Christian, seeing no one but himself at home, supposes these misbegotten notions are his own. So he bears the shame himself, and Satan has accomplished his purpose.

Walter Chantry, The Shadow of the Cross - Studies in Self-Denial, 1981, p. 15-16.
There before you is the grisly old enemy to spiritual progress standing astride the path of obedience to Christ – SELF! This monster cries out daily to be served. He challenges the dominion of Jesus Christ and opposes every devotion of time, energy and love to the Lord. But it is a strange war that we may win only by feeling ourselves the painful blows we give. Every denial of self is felt keenly. How we would love to change the scene of combat! But on every occasion when we are serious about advancing in righteousness, we must contend with self.
Walter Chantry, The Shadow of the Cross – Studies in Self-Denial, 1981, p. 15-16.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Nothing that we despise in other men is inherently absent from ourselves. We must learn to regard people less in the light of what they do or don't do, and more in light of what they suffer.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Bernard Anderson
Job had been talking as if he knew exactly how God should run the world. His sense of integrity had been the basis of his presumptuous claim that God should have treated him better. Outraged that he could not square his innocence with his fate, Job had dared to challenge and judge his Creator…(therefore) Yahweh’s answer came in the form of a rebuke – an overwhelming reminder that the first religious obligation of the creature is to acknowledge and glorify the Creator.
Bernard Anderson
Octavius Winslow
Apart from the Spirit, [the Bible] cannot quicken, nor sanctify, nor comfort. It may be read constantly, and searched deeply, and known accurately, and understood partially, and quoted appropriately. Yet, left to its own unassisted power, “it comes but in word only” (1 Thes. 1:5), producing no hallowing, no abiding, no saving results.
Octavius Winslow
Le plus grand point négatif de l'univers est la Croix, car par elle Dieu a effacé tout ce qui n'était pas de Lui-même : le plus grand positif de l'univers est la résurrection, car par elle Dieu a fait naître tout.
Watchman Nee
The greatest negative in the universe is the Cross, for with it God wiped out everything that was not of Himself: the greatest positive in the universe is the resurrection, for through it God brought into being all.
Watchman Nee
Amy Carmichael
If I am perturbed by the reproach and misunderstanding that may follow action taken for the good of souls for whom I must give account; if I cannot commit the matter and go on in peace and in silence, remembering Gethsemane and the cross, then I know nothing of Calvary love.
Amy Carmichael
Samuel Logan Brengle
Sin does not leap upon us fully armed. It steals in through a look, a swift, silent suggestion or imagination, but love and loyalty to Jesus will make you watchful and swift to rise up and cast out the subtle enemy. Do this, and you shall live, and live victoriously.
Samuel Logan Brengle
Adoniram Judson
Our prayers run along one road and God's answers by another, and by and by they meet.
Adoniram Judson
Dieu semble vouloir te garder dans une situation précaire mais il te destine des biens meilleurs que l’or de cette terre. Il veut te faire dépendre uniquement de lui, en se réservant le privilège de pourvoir lui même à tes besoins, pour te faire bénéficier, en plus des trésors invisibles renouvelés chaque matin.
Le seigneur peut permettre à d’autres d’être honorés et mis en avant, mais il te cachera dans l’obscurité pour te faire produire à sa gloire, des fruits précieux et odoriférants qui ne peuvent mûrirent que dans l’ombre .
Ton voisin deviendra grand mais tu seras gardé dans la petitesse.
D’autres peuvent travailler pour lui et recevoir la récompense de leurs activités, mais tu seras courbé sous un pénible labeur, et nul ne saura tout ce que tu fais."
