Le Christ est le point central de toute la Bible
JOHN MACARTHUR, TRUTH FOR TODAY, 2001
Christ is the focus of the entire Bible, and you need to study it to know what He is like. Too often we study the Bible for the sake of theological arguments or to answer questions. Those things are important, but the main point of Bible study is to know more about Christ so that you can be like him.

Distinguer les questions
Alistair Begg, Made For His Pleasure, Moody Press, 1996, p. 36-37.
[We must have] the ability to distinguish issues that truly matter from ones that do not. We do not want to be flexible about moral and theological convictions (the great doctrines of the church). But it is also wrong to be brittle about issues that are not foundational to our faith.
Alistair Begg, Made For His Pleasure, Moody Press, 1996, p. 36-37.

Si le Saint-Esprit ...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Unless the Holy Ghost blesses the Word, we who preach the gospel are of all men most miserable, for we have attempted a task that is impossible. We have entered on a sphere where nothing but the supernatural will ever avail. If the Holy Spirit does not renew the hearts of our hearers, we cannot do it. If the Holy Ghost does not regenerate them, we cannot. If He does not send the truth home into their souls, we might as well speak into the ear of a corpse.

Une grande espérance
Vous avez fait confiance au Christ comme votre sauveur mourant ; faites-lui maintenant confiance comme votre sauveur vivant. Tout autant qu'il est venu pour vous délivrer d'un châtiment futur, il est aussi venu pour vous délivrer de l'esclavage présent.
HANNAH WHITALL SMITH (1832-1911)
ÉVANGÉLISTE QUAKER
You have trusted Christ as your dying savior; now trust Him as your living savior. Just as much as he came to deliver you from future punishment, did he also come to deliver you from present bondage.

Le christianisme authentique et biblique
Philip Graham Ryken, Is Jesus the Only Way ? Crossway, 1999, p. 10-11.
Authentic, biblical Christianity has always been an exclusive religion. This became apparent during the Roman Empire. When the Emperor Alexander Severus heard about Christianity, he placed an image of Christ beside the other gods in his private chapel, just to be safe. The Romans were happy to welcome Jesus into their pantheon. What the Romans couldn’t understand was why Christians refused to reciprocate. If the emperor was willing to worship Christ, why weren’t Christians willing to worship the emperor? Yet the early Christians insisted that in order to worship Christ at all, they had to worship Christ alone. They were even willing to stand up for this conviction by playing “Christians and lions” at the Colosseum.

Le livre des Proverbes
Paul David Tripp
The book of Proverbs is, in ways, a treatise on talk. I would summarize it this way: words give life; words bring death – you choose. What does this mean? It means you have never spoken a neutral word in your life. Your words have direction to them. If your words are moving in the life direction, they will be words of encouragement, hope, love, peace, unity, instruction, wisdom, and correction. But if your words are moving in a death direction, they will be words of anger, malice, slander, jealousy, gossip, division, contempt, racism, violence, judgment, and condemnation. Your words have direction to them. When you hear the word talk you ought to hear something that is high and holy and significant and important. May God help us never to look at talk as something that doesn’t matter.

Prêcher "le Christ crucifié"
Sidney Greidanus, Preaching Christ from the Old Testament, Eerdmans, 1999, p. 5.
For Paul, preaching “Christ crucified” has a much broader meaning than focusing every sermon on Jesus’ suffering on the cross. The cross of Christ is indeed the focal point for Paul’s preaching, but, as Paul’s sermons and letters demonstrate, the cross of Christ reveals much more than the suffering of Jesus. It also provides a viewpoint on the perfect justice of God and the dreadful catastrophe of human sin.

Dieu nous a donné deux oreilles
Thomas Watson
God has given us two ears, but one tongue, to show that we should be swift to hear, but slow to speak. God has set a double fence before the tongue, the teeth and the lips, to teach us to be wary that we offend not with our tongue.
Thomas Watson

La faim et le désir du Christ
Samuel Rutherford
Hunger and longing for Christ hath brought on such a necessity of enjoying Christ that I will not, I do not want him; for I cannot master nor command Christ's love.

Les disciples du Christ
D.R. McConnell
As followers of Christ, we often suffer not because we are out of God’s will but because we are in it, not because we lack faith but because we have faith. We suffer not because we need to be filled with the Spirit but because we already are. Stronger faith does not mean less suffering, but more suffering means stronger faith. Far from calling our faith into question, our afflictions result in our becoming more and more like Christ Himself.
D.R. McConnell

Un conflit et une lutte ?
Auteur inconnu, The Kneeling Christian, vers1930, ch. 7.
It may be just letting your request be made known unto God (Phil. 4:6). We cannot think that prayer need always be a conflict and a wrestle. For if it were, many of us would soon become physical wrecks, suffering from nervous breakdown, and coming to an early grave.
Unknown Author, The Kneeling Christian, circa 1930, ch. 7.

La tentation (1)
Sam Storms, Pleasures Evermore : The Life-Changing Power of Knowing God, 2000, p. 251.
Temptation, in and of itself, is not sin… Jesus was repeatedly tempted (Hebrews 2:17-18; 4:14; Matthew 4), but He was sinless… Temptation only becomes a sin when you acquiesce to it, “fondle” it, and “enjoy” it.

We may be assured of this – the secret of all failure is our failure in secret prayer.
