Lieu de préparation
Cette vie n'a pas été conçue pour être le lieu de notre perfection, mais la préparation de celle-ci.

Se tourner continuellement vers le monde éternel
Le fait de se tourner continuellement vers le monde éternel n'est pas une forme d'évasion ou un vœu pieux, mais l'une des choses qu'un chrétien est censé faire.
C.S. Lewis
A continual looking forward to the eternal world is not a form of escapism or wishful thinking, but one of the things a Christian is meant to do.

Ce puissant désir de Dieu
La véritable Église n'a jamais sondé les attentes du public avant de lancer sa mission. Ses dirigeants ont entendu Dieu, ils ont connu la volonté de leur Seigneur et l'ont fait. Leur peuple les a suivis - parfois jusqu'au triomphe, plus souvent jusqu'aux insultes et à la persécution publique - et leur récompense suffisante a été la satisfaction d'avoir raison dans un monde erroné.
A.W. Tozer
The true Church has never sounded out public expectations before launching her mission. Her leaders heard from God, they knew their Lord’s will and did it. Their people followed them- sometimes to triumph, oftener to insults and public persecution – and their sufficient reward was the satisfaction of being right in a wrong world

Il ne nous a jamais fait défaut
Auteur inconnu
We fail Him, but, blessed be His name, He has never failed us, and He never will do so. We doubt Him, we mistrust His love and His providence and His guidance; we “faint because of the way;” we murmur because of the way; yet all the time He is there blessing us, and waiting to pour out upon us a blessing so great that there shall not be room to receive it.

La vie remplie de l'Esprit
A.W. Tozer
The Spirit-filled life is not a special, deluxe edition of Christianity. It is part and parcel of the total plan of God for His people.

La repentance est nécessaire
David Platt, Follow Me, page 23.
For every Christian in every culture, repentance is necessary. This doesn’t mean that when people become Christians, they suddenly become perfect and never have any struggles with sin again. But this does mean that when we become followers of Jesus, we make a decided break with an old way of living and take a decisive turn to a new life. We literally die to our sin and to ourselves – our self-centeredness, self-consumption, self-righteousness, self-indulgence, self-effort, and self-exaltation. In the words of Paul, we “have been crucified with Christ and [we] no longer live, but Christ lives in [us].”

Pâques
Il y a un nombre incalculable de choses en moi dont je souhaite frénétiquement être vidée, et malgré mes efforts les plus sincères pour les enlever, elles restent. Et c'est Pâques qui me rappelle que Dieu vide les tombes.
Craig D. Lounsbrough
There are an incalculable number of things within me that I frantically wish to be emptied of, and despite my most earnest efforts to remove them, they remain. And it is Easter that reminds me that God empties out tombs.

Les châtiments de Christ
John Fawcett, Christ Précieux
The chastisements of Christ are precious to those who believe. The believer’s love to Jesus Christ, not only continues under the rod of correction – but is quickened and increased by it! Thus it is distinguished from that pretended love, which exists only in times of prosperity. The afflicted Christian is enabled to consider – that whom the Lord loves – He chastens, and scourges every son whom He receives; and that He only afflicts us for our profit – to make us partakers of His holiness.

La générosité
"La générosité est impossible en dehors de notre amour de Dieu et de son peuple. Mais avec un tel amour, la générosité est non seulement possible mais inévitable."
John MacArthur
“Generosity is impossible apart from our love of God and of His people. But with such love, generosity not only is possible but inevitable.”
John MacArthur

Les propriétés des décrets de Dieu
Les propriétés des décrets de Dieu :
1. Ils sont éternels. Dieu ne fait point de décrets dans le temps, mais ils sont tous de toute éternité. Si les décrets divins n'étaient pas éternels, Dieu ne serait pas très parfait et immuable, mais, comme un homme faible, il devrait prendre de nouveaux conseils, et serait incapable de dire tout ce qui doit arriver (Eph. 1:4).
2. Ils sont très sages. Dieu ne peut pas délibérer ou prendre conseil, comme le font les hommes, car il voit toutes choses ensemble et en même temps. Rien n'est déterminé qui aurait pu être mieux déterminé (Rom. 11:33).
3. Ils sont libres. [Ils ne dépendent d'aucun autre, mais tous découlent du seul plaisir de Sa propre volonté. Il n'a fait aucun décret suspendu à une condition quelconque sans Lui-même (Rom. 11:34).
4. Ils sont immuables. Les décrets de Dieu sont constants ; et Il ne modifie en aucune façon Son dessein, comme le font les hommes (Psm. 33:1).
5. Ils sont très saints et purs (1 Jn. 1:5).
6. Ils sont efficaces. Tout ce que Dieu décrète s'accomplit infailliblement (Esaïe 46.10).
Thomas Boston, Of the Decrees of God, Commentary on the Shorter Catechism.
The properties of God’s decrees:
1. They are eternal. God makes no decrees in time, but they were all from eternity. If the divine decrees were not eternal, God would not be most perfect and unchangeable, but, like weak man, should take new counsels, and would be unable to tell everything that were to come to pass (Eph. 1:4).
2. They are most wise. God cannot properly deliberate or take counsel, as men do; for He sees all things together and at once. Nothing is determined that could have been better determined (Rom. 11:33).
3. They are free. [They depend] on no other, but all flowing from the mere pleasure of His own will. He has made no decrees suspended on any condition without Himself (Rom. 11:34).
4. They are unchangeable. God’s decrees are constant; and He by no means alters His purpose, as men do (Psm. 33:1).
5. They are most holy and pure (1 Jn. 1:5).
6. They are effectual. Whatsoever God decrees comes to pass infallibly (Isa. 46.10).

Témoignage de rue
John Bunyan
In one of the streets of Bedford I came to where there were three or four poor women sitting at a door in the sun and talking about the things of God. Willing to listen, I drew near to hear what they said, for I was a brisk talker myself in matters of religion. But I have to say that I heard, but I didn’t understand, for they were far above, out of my reach. They spoke about a new birth, the work of God in their hearts… They said how God had visited their souls with His love in the Lord Jesus, and with what words and promises they had been refreshed, comforted and supported against the temptations of the devil… And it seemed to me they spoke as if joy did make them speak. They spoke with such pleasantness of biblical language, and with such obvious grace in all they said, that they were to me as if they had found a new world.
John Bunyan

Avec ou sans limites ?
Jonathan Edwards
Persons need not and ought not to set any bounds to their spiritual and gracious appetites, [instead they ought] to be endeavoring by all possible ways to inflame their desires and to obtain more spiritual pleasures… Our hungerings and thirstings after God and Jesus Christ and after holiness can’t be too great for the value of these things, for they are things of infinite value… [Therefore] endeavor to promote spiritual appetites by laying yourself in the way of allurement… There is no such thing as excess in our taking of this spiritual food. There is no such virtue as temperance in spiritual feasting.

Vivre par la grâce
Jerry Bridges, Transforming Grace
To live by grace is to live solely by the merit of Jesus Christ. To live by grace is to base my entire relationship with God, including my acceptance and standing with Him, on my union with Christ.

Le Christ est tout en tous
Richard Baxter
I know that Christ is all in all; and that it is the presence of God that makes Heaven to be heaven. But yet it much sweetens the thoughts of that place to me that there are there such a multitude of my most dear and precious friends in Christ.
