La véritable repentance
John MacArthur, Matthew 1-7, Moody, 1985, p. 66.
True repentance first of all involves understanding and insight, intellectual awareness of the need for moral and spiritual cleansing and change. Second, it involves our emotions. We come to feel the need that our mind knows. Third, it involves appropriate actions that result from what our mind knows and our heart feels.
John MacArthur, Matthew 1-7, Moody, 1985, p. 66.

Comment se repentir ?
Comment nous repentir ?
1. Le simple fait d'avoir honte ou d'être désolé du péché, bien que la véritable repentance comporte toujours un élément de remords.
2. Une simple œuvre humaine. C'est, comme tout élément de la rédemption, un don de Dieu accordé souverainement.
3. Une tentative préalable au salut pour mettre de l'ordre dans sa vie. Il s'agit d'un ordre de reconnaître l'illégalité de sa vie et de la haïr, de lui tourner le dos et de fuir vers le Christ, en l'embrassant avec une dévotion sans réserve.
John MacArthur, The Gospel According to Jesus, 1988, p. 163.
Repentance is NOT:
1. Merely being ashamed or sorry over sin, although genuine repentance always involves an element of remorse.
2. Merely a human work. It is, like every element of redemption, a sovereignly bestowed gift of God.
3. A pre-salvation attempt to set one’s life in order. It is a command to recognize one’s lawlessness and hate it, to turn one’s back on it and flee to Christ, embracing Him with wholehearted devotion.
John MacArthur, The Gospel According to Jesus, 1988, p. 163.

La peur
Chris Mathis
Fear is a crazy thing. It can paralyze you and prevent you from moving into Gods best for you. Many people don’t realize the fear present in their heart because they have grown so accustomed to living with it. Fear of man, fear of failure, fear of not measuring up and so on. But the opposite takes place when you can condition your heart to fear nothing but God. When the fear of the Lord is the only thing in your heart you are no longer paralyzed but empowered. Empowered to fear no man, fear no failure and empowered to see yourself the way the Father sees you which is holy and complete. Fight to get all the unhealthy fear out of your heart today.

La résurrection affirme une vérité
Henry Parry Liddon
The resurrection asserts a truth which is by no means always written legibly for all men on the face of nature. It tells us that the spiritual is higher than the material; that in this universe spirit counts for more than matter.

Une mort importante
Jerry Bridges, The Practice of Godliness, NavPress, 1996, p. 24.
Jesus did not die just to give us peace and a purpose in life; He died to save us from the wrath of God. He died to reconcile us to a holy God who was alienated from us because of our sin. He died to ransom us from the penalty of sin – the punishment of everlasting destruction, shut out from the presence of the Lord. He died that we, the just objects of God’s wrath, should become, by His grace, heirs of God and co-heirs with Him.
Jerry Bridges, The Practice of Godliness, NavPress, 1996, p. 24.

La Bible est vivante

Les serviteurs naturels
Jerry Bridges, The Practice of Godliness, NavPress, 1996, p. 82.
We all know people, even unbelievers, who seem to be natural servants. They are always serving others one way or another. But God does not get the glory; they do. It is their reputation that is enhanced. But when we, natural servants or not, serve in dependence upon the grace of God with the strength He supplies, God is glorified.

Qui peut faire plus ?
Francis Schaeffer ; Death in the City, IVP, 1969, p. 142.
Who can do more? We with our own energy and wisdom, or the God who created heaven and earth and who can work in space-time history with a power which none of us has?
Francis Schaeffer ; Death in the City, IVP, 1969, p. 142.

The Bible defines sin as craving something more than God. Sin is making something more important than God.

Lorsque l'Esprit remplit le serviteur de Dieu
Sinclair Ferguson, The Holy Spirit, InterVarsity Press, 1996, p. 238.
The hallmark of the preaching which the Spirit effects is “boldness”… As in the Old Testament, when the Spirit fills the servant of God He “clothes himself” with that person, and aspects of the Spirit’s authority are illustrated in the courageous declaration of the Word of God. This boldness appears to involve exactly what it denotes: there is freedom of speech. We catch occasional glimpses of this in the Acts of the Apostles. What was said of the early New England preacher Thomas Hooker becomes a visible reality: when he preached, those who heard him felt that he could pick up a king and put him in his pocket!

La tristesse
Mme Charles E. Cowman
It is better that we should not sing of sadness. There are sad notes enough already in the world’s air. We should sing of cheer, of joy, of hope. We do not need to be defeated in our battles, to sink under our loads, to be crushed beneath our sorrows. We may be victorious. Sorrow comes into every life; we cannot shut it away, but we can be conquerors in it. When the snow melts away in the springtime, I have often seen under it sweet flowers in bloom. The very drifts are like warm blankets to keep them safe. So it is with sorrow: Under the cold snows of grief the flowers of the Christian graces grow unhurt. We can overcome in sorrow. This does not mean that we should not shed tears. The love of Christ does not harden the heart; it really makes it more sensitive. The grace of Christ does not save us from suffering in bereavement; yet we are to be conquerors. Our sorrow must not crush us: We must go through it victoriously, with sweet submission and joyous confidence. Let us keep in mind that it is “through Him that loved us.

La bonté de Dieu est proche de nous
La bonté de Dieu est proche de nous. Ce n'est pas une bonté lointaine, mais Dieu nous suit avec sa bonté dans toutes les situations où nous nous trouvons. Il s'attache à nous, il s'est fait proche, pour être près de nous dans la bonté. Il est un père, et partout pour nous entretenir. Il est un mari, et partout pour nous aider. Il est un ami, et partout il nous réconforte et nous conseille. Son amour est un amour proche. Il a pris sur lui les relations les plus étroites, afin que nous ne manquions jamais de Dieu et des preuves de son amour.
Richard Sibbes
God’s goodness is near us. It is not a goodness far away, but God follows us with His goodness in whatever situation we are. He attaches Himself to us, He has made Himself close, that He might be near us in goodness. He is a father, and everywhere to maintain us. He is a husband, and everywhere to help. He is a friend, and everywhere to comfort and counsel. His love is a near love. He has taken upon Himself the closest kinds of relationships, so that we may never lack God and the evidences of His love.

C'est un mystère
Martin Luther
This is that mystery which is rich in divine grace to sinners: wherein by a wonderful exchange our sins are no longer ours but Christ’s, and the righteousness of Christ not Christ’s but ours. He has emptied Himself of His righteousness that He might clothe us with it and fill us with it; and He has taken our evils upon Himself that He might deliver us from them. Learn Christ and Him crucified. Learn to pray to Him and, despairing of yourself, say, “Thou, Lord Jesus, art my righteousness, but I am Thy sin. Thou hast taken upon Thyself what is mine and hast given to me what is Thine. Thou hast taken upon Thyself what Thou wast not and hast given to me what I was not.”
Martin Luther

Quel joyeux espoir !
Quand les puissances de l'enfer l'emportent
Sur notre faiblesse et notre inaptitude,
Pourrions-nous lever le voile de la chair,
Pourrions-nous, pendant un instant, être les témoins
De ces armées innombrables qui se tiennent
Calmes et brillantes de part et d'autre ;
Oh, quel joyeux espoir nous animerait,
Oh, quelle foi sereine nous guiderait !
Si grand que soit le danger proche,
Plus grands sont les amis à nos côtés.
ANONYME
When the powers of hell prevail
O’er our weakness and unfitness,
Could we lift the fleshly veil,
Could we for a moment witness
Those unnumbered hosts that stand
Calm and bright on either hand;
Oh, what joyful hope would cheer,
Oh, what faith serene would guide us!
Great may be the danger near,
Greater are the friends beside us.
