Romanian pastor Richard Wurmbrand spent 14 years in prison for preaching the gospel. Although his captors smashed four of his vertebrae and either cut or burned 18 holes in his body, they could not defeat him. He testified, “Alone in my cell, cold, hungry, and in rags, I danced for joy every night.” During this time he turned to a fellow prisoner, a man he had led to the Lord before they were arrested, and asked, “Have you any resentment against me that I brought you to Christ?” His response: “I have no words to express my thankfulness that you brought me to the wonderful Savior. I would never have it another way.” These two men exemplify the supernatural joy that can be experienced by believers who live on the edge of death as the result of being severely persecuted.

La résurrection du Christ, vrai homme et vrai Dieu, est le mystère nodal, le fait décisif qui distingue la foi chrétienne des autres religions, lesquelles accordent pourtant considération et respect à la figure historique et à l’activité humaine de Jésus, mais refusent de croire en la résurrection des morts.
Andrea da Firenze, Résurrection du Christ
L'Église invisible désigne les personnes qui sont vraiment rachetées, vraiment régénérées et spirituellement unies au Christ. L'Église invisible se distingue de l'Église visible parce qu'aucun homme ne peut lire dans le cœur d'une autre personne. Nous regardons l'apparence extérieure, mais Dieu seul peut lire le cœur.
R.C. Sproul, The Purpose of God, An Exposition of Ephesians, Christian Focus Publications, 1994, p. 88.
The invisible church refers to those persons who are truly redeemed, truly regenerate and spiritually united with Christ. The invisible church is distinguished from the visible church because no man can read another person’s heart. We look on the outward appearance, but God alone can read the heart.

Jerry Bridges, The Pursuit of Holiness, 1996, p. 81.
We need to reckon on the fact that we died to sin’s reign, that it no longer has any dominion over us, that God has united us with the risen Christ in all His power, and has given us the Holy Spirit to work in us. Only as we accept our responsibility and appropriate God’s provisions will we make any progress in our pursuit of holiness.

Spiritual disciplines are provided for our good, not for our bondage. They are privileges to be used, not duties to be performed. To take off on a familiar quotation from Jesus, “Spiritual disciplines were made for man, not man for spiritual disciplines” (see Mark 2:27).
Jerry Bridges, Transforming Grace, NavPress, 1991, p. 127.

Prayer, in many ways, is the supreme expression of our faith in God.

Oswald Chambers
Prayer is the vital breath of the Christian; not the thing that makes him alive, but the evidence that he is alive.

A dozen ignorant peasants proclaiming a crucified Jew as the founder of a new faith; bearing as the symbol of their worship an instrument which was the sign of ignominy, slavery and crime; preaching what must have seemed an absurd doctrine of humility, patient suffering and love to enemies – graces undreamed of before; demanding what must have seemed an absurd worship for one who had died like a malefactor and a slave, and making what must have seemed an absurd promise of everlasting life through one who had himself died, and that between two thieves.

Joni Eareckson Tada, Heaven : Your Real Home, Zondervan, 1995, p. 110.
Don’t think such heavenly mindedness makes us pilgrims no earthly good. Don’t pooh-pooh it as looking at the world through pie-in-the-sky, rose-colored glasses. Sojourners who think the most of the next world are usually those who are doing the highest good in this one. It is the person whose mind is only on earthly things who, when it comes to earth, does little good.

R.C. Sproul, The Purpose of God, An Exposition of Ephesians, Christian Focus Publications, 1994, p. 152.
All of our warfare and all of our activity must take place in the context of constant, unceasing prayer. Just as a soldier on the battle line has to keep in constant communication with his general headquarters and his commanding officer, so the Christian who is on the battle line must be in constant communication with his Lord. He might be fully equipped with all the armor, but if he is cut off from personal communication with his own commander, then he will be isolated and vulnerable.
