Servir Christ pour sa gloire
Si dans l'une vous servez Christ pour sa gloire, dans l'autre vous vous servez du Christ pour votre gloire. La question finale qui se pose est : qui est alors Dieu dans votre vie? »

Dans l'unité seulement

Jésus n'est pas contre le commandement
John Mark Comer
Jesus isn’t anti-command, not by a long shot. But for Jesus, leadership isn’t about coercion and control; it’s about example and invitation. He didn’t command us to follow his practices; neither did he give lectures on how to do them or offer Saturday morning workshops on developing your own rule of life. He simply set the example of a whole new way to “carry life”; then he turned around and said, “If you’re tired of the way you’ve been doing it and want rest for your souls, then come, take up the easy yoke, and the details of my life.”

Des témoins agissant
Phillips Brooks
It is for us, in whom the Christian Church is at this moment partially embodied, to declare that Christianity, that the Christian faith can do that for the world which the world needs. You say, “What can I do?” You can furnish one Christian life. You can furnish a life so faithful to every duty, so ready for every service, so determined not to commit every sin, that the great Christian Church shall be the stronger for your living in it, and the problem of the world be answered, and a certain great peace come into this poor, perplexed phase of our humanity as it sees that new revelation of what Christianity is.

La nouveauté
Charles H. Spurgeon
There will be no new God, nor a new devil, and we shall never have a new Savior, nor a new atonement: Why should we then be either attracted or alarmed by the error and nonsense which everywhere plead for a hearing because they are new? What is their newness to us; we are not children, nor frequenters of playhouses? Truly, to such a new toy or a new play has immense attractions; but men care less about the age of a thing than about its intrinsic value. To suppose that theology can be new is to imagine that the Lord himself is of yesterday. A doctrine which is said to have lately become true must of necessity be a lie. Falsehood has no beard, but truth is hoary with an age immeasurable. The old gospel is the only gospel. Pity is our only feeling towards those young preachers who cry, "See my new theology," in just the same spirit as little Mary says, "See my pretty new frock."
Charles H. Spurgeon

Comment résister vigoureusement ?
Scott Hafemann, The God of Promise and the Life of Faith , 2001.
Though we mourn this persecution and must resist it vigorously, it is crucial to recognize that such suffering is not the consequence of being out of God’s will but is a direct result of the work of God’s Spirit in the lives of His people.

Mon apologie
PETER J. GOMES
PRÉDICATEUR À L'UNIVERSITÉ DE HARVARD
THE GOOD BOOK: READING THE BIBLE WITH MIND AND HEART, 1996
My apologia is an argument in favor of taking the Bible seriously, and it is addressed in part at least to those who either trivialize it or idolize it, and who thereby miss its dynamic, living and transforming quality. It is an argument addressed as well to those who are in search of spiritual and moral grounding in their chaotic lives, and who may have heard of the Bible but know little and want to know more. It is also an argument that condemns the lazy, simpleminded approach that many are tempted to take when considering the serious matter of Bible interpretation. Finally, it is also an invitation to enter into the Bible and let it enter into us, all of us, and most particularly into those who have been excluded from the faith of the Bible by the use of the Bible.

Ceux que Dieu a utilisés dans le passé
Winkie Pratney
Those that God used in the past were just ordinary people with an extraordinary Master. They were not all champions of great faith, but little people who saw their own need, and put their small faith in a great God.

Le Christ continue d’éclairer beaucoup d’hommes
Le Christ continue d’éclairer beaucoup d’hommes qui ne croient pas en sa résurrection. Nous ne nous en plaindrons pas. Cependant assimiler son enseignement en intégralité, sans prendre en compte la perspective de la résurrection, le galvaude très sérieusement. Sans elle, le disciple ne pourra plus compter que sur ses propres forces pour tenter d’appliquer le message du rabbi juif. Surtout il restera dans le doute de savoir si le mal et la mort peuvent être définitivement surmontés.

Le péché est grand
John Flavel
If ever you wish to see how great and horrid and evil sin is, measure it in your thoughts, either by the infinite holiness and excellency of God, who is wronged by it; or by the infinite sufferings of Christ, who died to satisfy for it; and then you will have deeper apprehensions of its enormity.

Il nous entend
Charles H. Spurgeon
If the Lord will but hear us we will leave it to His superior wisdom to decide whether He will answer us or no. It is better for our prayer to be heard than answered. If the Lord were to make an absolute promise to answer all our requests it might be rather a curse than a blessing, for it would be casting the responsibility of our lives upon ourselves, and we should be placed in a very anxious position: But now the Lord hears our desires, and that is enough; we only wish Him to grant them if His infinite wisdom sees that it would be for our good and for His glory.

Les Corinthiens
George Eldon Ladd, A Theology of the New Testament, Eerdmans, 1993, p. 589.
Paul [addressed] the Corinthians as “those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints” (1 Cor. 1:2). The congregation in Corinth was anything but a “holy” people in terms of life and conduct; false teaching, schisms, and immorality marred the church. Still, it was a congregation of saints, of the sanctified, because in spite of the sinful conduct of many of its members and the worldly character of the church itself, it was still the church of God in Corinth.

L'église est l'organisation la plus importante du monde
R.C. Sproul
The church is the most important organization in the world. It is the target of every demonic, hostile attack in the universe. Jesus personally guaranteed that the gates of hell will never prevail against the church. He made no guarantee that the gates of hell would not be unleashed against it, however.

Le dessein dans le cœur de l'homme
Tedd Tripp
“The purpose in a man’s heart is like deep water, but a man of understanding will draw it out” (Pr. 20:5). The goals and motivations of the human heart are not easily discovered. The patience, skill, and ability of an understanding person are required to draw out those deep waters.

Il faut renoncer à soi
Walter Chantry, The Shadow of the Cross - Studies in Self-Denial, 1981, p. 72.
Self must be denied as to time and attention for prayer. All-prayer cannot be wielded without the expenditure of time. “A minute with God” seldom lays hold of Him. Sustained prayer is necessary. Such time may only be found by snatching it from personal pursuits, however legitimate they may be.

La mort du péché
Sinclair Ferguson, The Christian Life, p. 162, 1997.
What then is the killing of sin? It is the constant battle against sin which we fight daily-the refusal to allow the eye to wander, the mind to contemplate, the affections to run after anything which will draw us away from Christ. It is the deliberate rejection of any sinful thought, suggestion, desire, aspiration, deed, circumstance or provocation at the moment we become conscience of its existence.
Sinclair Ferguson, The Christian Life, p. 162, 1997.
