Si la conscience d'une personne est prête à confesser les péchés qu'elle a commis, y compris le péché d'incrédulité, elle sera affligée d'une manière pieuse, désirant ardemment la miséricorde de Dieu.
Watchman Nee
If one's conscience is willing to confess whatever sins have been committed, including the sin of unbelief, it will be sorrowful in a godly way, earnestly desiring the mercy of God.
Watchman Nee

The Bible teaches that true joy is formed in the midst of the difficult seasons of life.
Francis Chan
Le Christ est mort pour nous libérer du péché, de la mort, de la peur et de la honte, afin de nous établir dans la liberté pour que nous puissions vivre et aimer comme les glorieux enfants de Dieu. La liberté est très personnelle, mais elle n'est pas égocentrique. La liberté nous a été donnée afin que nous puissions nous présenter au Seigneur comme un sacrifice volontaire, soumis et prêt à servir.
Dann Farrelly
Christ died to set us free from sin, death, fear, and shame in order to establish us in freedom so we can live and love as God’s glorious children. Freedom is very personal, but it is not self-centered. We have been given freedom so we may present ourselves to the Lord as a willing sacrifice, surrendered and ready to serve.

Byron Dement
[Repentance is] consciousness of spiritual poverty dethroning pride, a sense of personal unworthiness producing grief, a willingness to surrender to God in genuine humility, and a strong spiritual desire developing into hunger and thirst, enter into the experience of one who wholly abandons sin and heartily turns to Him who grants repentance unto life.
Byron Dement
Edward Reyner
An unbridled tongue is the chariot of the devil, wherein he rides in triumph… The course of an unruly tongue is to proceed from evil to worse, to begin with foolishness, and go on with bitterness, and to end in mischief and madness (Ecclesiastes 10:13).

The primary source of the appeal of Christianity was Jesus - His incarnation, His life, His crucifixion, and His resurrection.

Grace puts its hand on the boasting mouth, and shuts it once for all.

Richard Baxter, The Reformed Pastor.
Sin dwells in hell, and holiness in heaven. Remember that every temptation is from the devil, to make you like himself. Remember when you sin, that you are learning and imitating of the devil – and are so far like him. And the end of all, is that you may feel his pains. If hell-fire be not good, then sin is not good.
Richard Baxter, The Reformed Pastor.
Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for His Highest.
The modern view of the death of Jesus is that He died for our sins out of sympathy. The New Testament view is that He bore our sin not by sympathy, but by identification. He was made to be sin. Our sins are removed because of the death of Jesus, and the explanation of His death is His obedience to His Father, not His sympathy with us. We are acceptable with God not because we have obeyed, or because we have promised to give up things, but because of the death of Christ, and in no other way. We say that Jesus Christ came to reveal the Fatherhood of God, the lovingkindness of God; the New Testament says He came to bear away the sin of the world.
Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for His Highest.
Charles H. Spurgeon
The heart of Christ became like a reservoir in the midst of the mountains. All the tributary streams of iniquity, and every drop of the sins of His people, ran down and gathered into one vast lake, deep as hell and shoreless as eternity. All these met, as it were, in Christ’s heart, and He endured them all.
Charles H. Spurgeon
