La foi n'est pas l'absence de faits
Jason Vallotton
Faith is not the absence of facts; it is the presence of conviction. There is actually no such thing as blind faith, because faith sees what is not yet visible, hopes for what is not yet viable and trusts in what others don’t value. Faith is the bridge between what is and what will be.

Notre bon berger
Walter Chantry, The Shadow of the Cross - Studies in Self-Denial, 1981, p. 59.
Our Good Shepherd has become the model for under-shepherds. His great concern is the good of the sheep. A good shepherd gives himself to the sheep. A thief comes to get something form the flock – wool or mutton. Jesus our Lord made every personal claim subservient to the blessing of his flock; even to giving His life that they might live.

Les bras de Dieu
Les bras de Dieu évoquent sa puissance et sa protection.
Sa puissance nous est montrée par la force déployée lors de la création du monde. Les scientifiques qui cherchent à en découvrir les secrets ont bien compris qu’une énergie phénoménale est à son origine. Cette force du Dieu éternel continue à se déployer dans le maintien et le bon ordre de l’univers. Que peut craindre un enfant de Dieu quand il sait que cette puissance est à sa disposition tous les jours ? Il est dans les bras de Dieu ; il n’y a pas d’endroit plus sûr !

Souvenir
Le Nouveau Testament ne dit jamais simplement "souviens-toi de Jésus-Christ". C'est une phrase à moitié finie. Il dit "souvenez-vous de Jésus-Christ ressuscité des morts".
ROBERT RUNCIE
ARCHEVÊQUE ANGLAIS DE CANTERBURY
SAISONS DE L'ESPRIT, 1983
The New Testament never simply says “remember Jesus Christ.” That is a half-finished sentence. It says “remember Jesus Christ is risen from the dead.”

La rédemption par le sang de Jésus
Charles Simeon
It is doubtless a most joyful thought that we have redemption through the blood of our adorable Savior. But I have no less comfort in the thought that He is exalted to give repentance and remission of sins… Repentance is in every view so desirable, so necessary, so suited to honor God, that I seek that above all. The tender heart, the broken and contrite spirit, are to me far above all the joys that I could ever hope for in this vale of tears. I long to be in my proper place, my hand on my mouth, and my mouth in the dust… I feel this to be safe ground. Here I cannot err.

Le salut
Matthew Henry
Those who have a saving interest in Christ must be willing to part with all for Him, leave all to follow Him. Whatever stands in opposition to Christ, or in completion with Him for our love and service, we must cheerfully quit it, though ever so dear to us.

Lorsque vous connaissez la vérité, ...
John Piper
When you know the truth about what happens to you after you die, and you believe it, and you are satisfied with all that God will be for you in the ages to come, that truth makes you free indeed. Free from the short, shallow, suicidal pleasures of sin, and free for the sacrifices of mission and ministry that cause people to give glory to our Father in heaven.

Une bénédiction
George Muller
If God does bless us in reading His word, He expects that we should be obedient children and that we should accept the Word as His will, and carry it into practice. If this be neglected, you will find that the reading of the Word, even if accompanied by prayer, meditation, and faith, will do you little good. God does expect us to be obedient children and will have us practise what He has taught us. The Lord Jesus Christ says, ‘If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.’” And in the measure in which we carry out what our Lord Jesus taught, so in measure are we happy children. And in such measure only can we honestly look for help from the Father, even as we seek to carry out His will.

Mon esprit est la maison de Dieu !
Jack Frost
My spirit is God’s home. His unconditional love dwells in me. I have already received all of God’s love that I am ever going to receive. God’s grace and mercy live at home in me. The fruit of the Spirit is at home in me. The power of God that created the universe lives inside me. His Spirit now lives in my spirit, and in Him there is no darkness at all. His love thinks no evil, and that love is resident in my spirit. Think about it; how can anything I do improve on that!

Comment nous repentir ?
Ray Ortlund
How should we repent when rightly rebuked? In four ways: 1. “I was wrong.” Plain, honest, no evasions. 2. “I am sorry.” Brokenhearted, realizing the damage done. 3. “It won’t happen again.” Rebuilding trust for the future. 4. “Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?” Performing deeds in keeping with repentance (Acts 26:20; Matthew 3:8).

Le choix de nos amis
Danny Silk
I choose you. This is a foundation of true lasting relationships. It is the foundation for God's relationship with you. As Jesus declared to His disciples, you did not choose me but I chose you. Jesus chose you in the most difficult of circumstances. He chose you while you were in sin. While you were His enemy. His side of the relationship with you does not depend on your choice, but entirely upon His choice. The question is whether or not you will learn to build your relationships with Him and others, upon the foundation of your choice.

C’est du coeur que viennent ....
Mais la Bible donne aussi le remède au mal : elle parle d’une paix “comme un fleuve” (Ésaïe 48. 18). Elle a pour fondement le sacrifice de Christ : “Il a fait la paix par le sang de sa croix” (Colossiens 1. 20). La paix avec Dieu est offerte à tous ceux qui croient en Jésus. Il les invite alors à poursuivre la paix “avec tous” (Hébreux 12. 14). Lui est le Seigneur de paix.

L'accueil de Jésus
John MacArthur
Jesus did not accept religious people. In fact, He kept His fiercest threats for them. You see, Jesus was not about sentimentality; He was about truth. Jesus is truth personified. He is the living manifestation of the holy law of God, and as such, He perfectly understood that religion, spiritual teaching, contrary to the truth comes from hell and sends people there. Anything but the truth is a damning deception that has the greatest power to destroy souls forever because it gives the illusion that all is well. In fact, I would go so far as to say that of all the evils in the world, of all the sins in the world, of all the iniquities in the world, our Lord knew that religion was the worst — false religion — and especially false Judaism and false Christianity. And that’s why the severest eternal judgment will be rendered for the religious who perverted the Old Testament and the New Testament.

Nos dons
John MacArthur, Éphésiens, Moody, 1986, p. 137.
Not to use our gift is an affront to God’s wisdom, a rebuff of His love and grace, and a loss to His church. We did not determine our gift, deserve it, or earn it. But we all have a gift from the Lord, and if we do not use it, His work is weakened and His heart is grieved.
John MacArthur, Ephesians, Moody, 1986, p. 137.

La peur
Augustin a dit à juste titre : "La peur est la réponse du cœur humain lorsque sa seule chose est menacée." Dieu a béni toutes nos vies avec de nombreuses bonnes choses. Nous devons en profiter et reconnaître Dieu dans la gratitude, mais nous n'osons pas faire de ces bonnes choses notre "unique chose", car ce faisant, elles deviennent des idoles dans nos cœurs. Comme Augustin l'a dit, si nous faisons bêtement de ces bonnes choses notre seule chose, la peur s'installera lorsqu'elles seront menacées. En fait, la peur, l'inquiétude et l'anxiété sont une bonne indication que nous avons créé des idoles et que nous risquons de les perdre. Par conséquent, le but du Christ est d'éloigner notre cœur de ces faux dieux et de le placer sur le vrai Dieu. Vous rappelez-vous comment Jésus a loué Marie plutôt que Marthe ? Pourquoi ? Parce qu'elle a choisi Dieu comme sa seule chose. Mais le Seigneur lui répondit : "Marthe, Marthe, tu t'inquiètes et tu t'agites pour tant de choses [et c'étaient de bonnes choses !]; mais une seule chose est nécessaire, car Marie a choisi la bonne part, qui ne lui sera pas enlevée" (Lc. 10:41-42). Ainsi, lorsque Dieu est notre seule chose, nous n'avons jamais à avoir peur car notre seule chose n'est jamais menacée et ne sera jamais retirée de notre présence.
Randy Smith
Augustine rightly said, “Fear is the response of the human heart when its one thing is threatened.” God has blessed all of our lives with many good things. We are to enjoy them and acknowledge God in gratitude, but we dare not make these good things our “one thing”, for in doing so, they become idols in our hearts. Like Augustine said, when we foolishly make these good things our one thing, fear will result when they are threatened. As a matter of fact, fear, worry, and anxiety are a good indication that we have created idols and feel in danger of losing them. Therefore, Christ’s goal is to pull our heart away from these false gods and place our heart on the true God. Do you remember how Jesus praised Mary over Martha? Why? Because she chose God as her one thing. “But the Lord answered and said to her, ‘Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered about so many things [and they were good things!]; but only one thing is necessary, for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her‘” (Lk. 10:41-42). So when God is our one thing, we never need to fear because our one thing is never threatened nor will He ever be removed from our presence.
