Ce n'est pas le fait d'être vu des hommes qui est mauvais, mais le fait de faire ces choses dans le but d'être vu des hommes. Le problème de l'hypocrite est sa motivation. Il ne veut pas être saint, il veut seulement avoir l'air d'être saint. Il est plus préoccupé par sa réputation de justice que par le fait de devenir réellement juste.

L'approbation des hommes
Ce n'est pas le fait d'être vu des hommes qui est mauvais, mais le fait de faire ces choses dans le but d'être vu des hommes. Le problème de l'hypocrite est sa motivation. Il ne veut pas être saint, il veut seulement avoir l'air d'être saint. Il est plus préoccupé par sa réputation de justice que par le fait de devenir réellement juste. L'approbation des hommes lui importe plus que l'approbation de Dieu.

Un incroyable réconfort pour nous tous
David Jeremiah
At times, like the apostle Paul, we will feel hard-pressed, perplexed, persecuted, and struck down. However, when we belong to Christ, we can be assured that we will not be crushed, left in despair, forsaken, or destroyed. This should serve as an incredible comfort to us all.
David Jeremiah

L'autorité de la Bible
Wayne Grudem, Systematic Theology, Zondervan, 1994, p. 73.
The authority of Scripture means that all the words in Scripture are God’s words in such a way that to disbeliever or disobey any word of Scripture is to disbelieve or disobey God.

La religion
Richard Baxter
“Naturally, men are prone to spin themselves a web of opinions out of their own brain, and to have a religion that may be called their own. They are far readier to make themselves a faith, than to receive that which God hath formed to their hands; are far readier to receive a doctrine that tends to their carnal commodity, or honor, or delight, than one that tends to self-denial.”

Le début du nouveau projet de Dieu
La résurrection de Jésus est le début du nouveau projet de Dieu, non pas d'arracher les gens de la terre pour les emmener au ciel, mais de coloniser la terre avec la vie du ciel. C'est, après tout, ce dont il est question dans le Notre Père.
N.T. Wright
Jesus’s resurrection is the beginning of God’s new project not to snatch people away from earth to heaven but to colonize earth with the life of heaven. That, after all, is what the Lord’s Prayer is about.

Oh, maudit péché !
John Flavel,The Fountain of Life
Oh cursed sin! It was you who slew my dear Lord! For your sake He underwent all this! If your vileness had not been so great, His sufferings had not been so many. Cursed sin! You were the knife which stabbed Him! You the sword which pierced Him!

L'Évangile n'est pas une nouvelle loi
Auteur inconnu
The Gospel is not a new law. It is not a code of morals or ethics. It is not a creed to be accepted. It is not a system of religion to be adhered to. It is the good news that God will forgive and accept any person who trusts His provision of the crucified and risen Christ as the answer to their rebellion and sin.

Être rempli
Andrew Murray
Just as water ever seeks and fills the lowest place, so the moment God finds you abased and empty, His glory and power flow in.

Notre tendance à l'imitation
Auteur inconnu
Speaking of our tendency to imitate, I find that my own mind seems remarkably malleable, impressed by whatever I read or see modeled around me. A steady diet of cynical political commentary always makes me more negative. Being with friends who gossip can make me more careless about how I speak. None of us is so mature that we cannot be influenced. The question is: Who or what do we want to shape our lives? Even the culture around us will try to 'disciple' us if we have not placed ourselves under the transforming influence of Jesus Christ.

Nos prières
Auteur inconnu
Are not our prayers so often ineffective and powerless – and sometimes even prayerless – because we rush unthinkingly and unpreparedly into God’s presence, without realizing the majesty and glory of the God Whom we are approaching, and without reflecting upon the exceeding great riches of His glory in Christ Jesus, which we hope to draw upon?

Le fruit de l'Esprit
Marshall Shelly
When the fruit of the Spirit becomes characteristic of the church’s daily life, it becomes painfully clear whenever one person violates that spirit, and the body itself will work to take care of the irritation.

Les prophéties sur Jésus
George Sweeting, Who Said That?
More than a fourth of the Bible is predictive prophecy. Approximately one-third of it has yet to be fulfilled. Both the Old and New Testaments are full of promises about the return of Jesus Christ. Over 1,800 references appear in the Old Testament, and seventeen Old Testament books give prominence to this theme. Of the 260 chapters in the New Testament, there are more than 300 references to the Lord’s return – one out of every thirty verses. Twenty-three of the twenty-seven New Testament books refer to this great event. Three of the four other books are single-chapter letters written to individuals concerning a particular subject, and the fourth is Galatians, which does imply Christ’s coming again. For every prophecy on the first coming of Christ, there are eight on Christ’s second coming.

Dieu est-il fier de moi ?
Randall Worley
Is God as proud of me as I am of my children? Like the insufferable dad who can’t stop yelling “that’s my boy” every time his son scores? You can accept He loves you and occasionally likes you. But proud of you? Seriously? If He’s not then He’s not a good and perfect Father. If He’s not proud of me then I’m a better father than He is. Don’t think so.

Lorsqu'Esdras a prêché au peuple
Lorsqu'Esdras a prêché au peuple en Néhémie 8, l'attitude avec laquelle les auditeurs sont venus l'écouter était cruciale. Nous devons suivre leur exemple en nous engageant à être attentifs, à écouter attentivement et à appliquer correctement les Écritures. Nous pourrons alors quitter le service avec un cœur joyeux.
Alistair Begg, Made For His Pleasure, Moody Press, 1996, p. 158.
When Ezra preached to the people in Nehemiah 8, the attitude with which the listeners came to hear him was crucial. We need to follow their example by committing ourselves to attend expectantly, listen carefully, and apply the Scriptures properly. Then we can leave the service with joyful hearts.

Lorsqu'il vous a converti
Samuel Logan Brengle
When He converted you, He forgave all your sins, every one of them. He did not leave half of them unforgiven, but blotted them all out as a thick cloud to be remembered against you no more forever. He also adopted you into His family and sent His Holy Spirit into your heart to tell you that blessed bit of heavenly news; and that information made you feel happier than to have been told that you had fallen heir to a million dollars, or been elected governor of a state, for this made you an heir of God and a joint heir of all things with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Glory to God! It is a great thing to be converted.

Les réponses à la prière
Auteur inconnu, The Kneeling Christian, circa 1930, ch. 4.
Answers to prayer, however, do not depend upon our feelings, but upon the trustworthiness of the Promiser.

Le caractère divin découle de la dévotion à Dieu
Jerry Bridges, The Practice of Godliness, NavPress, 1996, p. 54, 55, 56.
We can build Godlike character only upon the foundation of a whole-hearted devotion to God. God must be the very focal point of our lives if we wish to have godly character and conduct. This point cannot be overemphasized. Too many of us focus on the outward structure of character and conduct without taking the time to build the inward foundation of devotion to God. This often results in a cold morality or legalism, or even worse, self-righteousness and spiritual pride… Godly character flows out of devotion to God and practically confirms the reality of that devotion.

Des personnes faibles
Hudson Taylor
Many Christians estimate difficulties in the light of their own resources, and thus attempt little and often fail in the little they attempt. All God’s giants have been weak men who did great things for God because they reckoned on His power and presence with them.
