I earnestly entreat all…believers to remember that they may honor God as much by patient suffering as they can by active work. It often shows more grace to sit still than it does to go to and fro, and perform great exploits.

Let all true Christians remember, that their best things are yet to come. Let us count it no strange thing, if we have sufferings in this present time. It is a season of probation. We are yet at school. We are learning patience, gentleness, and meekness, which we could hardly learn if we had our good things now. But there is an eternal holiday yet to begin. For this let us wait quietly. It will make amends for all. “Our light affliction which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory” (2 Cor. 4:17).

R.C. Sproul Jr.
Sin is powerful, even for those who have been reborn. Grace, however, is more powerful still. This is a true and trustworthy saying, that Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of which I am the chief (I Timothy 1:15). To diminish the power of grace is to diminish the scope of our own sin. Jesus, after all, didn’t come to save the polite, well-behaved people. He came to save His own, and gave them first repentant hearts.

J.C. Ryle
Nothing can altogether overthrow and destroy [the church]. Its members may be persecuted, oppressed, imprisoned, beaten, beheaded, burned; but the true church is never altogether extinguished; it rises again from its afflictions; it lives on through fire and water. When crushed in one land it springs up in another. The Pharaohs, the Herods, the Neros, have labored in vain to put down this church; they slay their thousands, and then pass away and go to their own place. The true Church outlives them all, and sees them buried each in his turn. It is an anvil that has broken many a hammer in this world, and will break many a hammer still; it is a bush which is often burning, and yet is not consumed.

Oswald Chambers
If we think of prayer as the breath of our lungs and the blood from our hearts, we think rightly. The blood flows and the breathing continues – we are not conscious of it but it is always going on.
Oswald Chambers
Alistair Begg
At best we are but clay, animated dust; but viewed as sinners, we are monsters indeed. Let it be published in heaven as a miracle that the Lord Jesus should set His heart's love upon people like us.

C.S. Lewis
No philosophical theory which I have yet come across is a radical improvement on the words of Genesis, that 'In the beginning God made Heaven and Earth'.

Henry Drummond
The soul is a living organism. And for any question as to the soul's Life we must appeal to Life-science. And what does the Life-science teach? That if I am to inherit Eternal Life, I must cultivate a correspondence with the Eternal.
Henry Drummond
Bien que votre foi ne voie que le côté noir de la Providence, elle a cependant un meilleur côté, et Dieu vous le fera voir. Nous savons que toutes choses concourent au bien de ceux qui aiment Dieu ; j'en déduis donc que les pertes, les déceptions, les mauvaises langues, la perte d'amis, de maisons ou de pays, sont des ouvriers de Dieu, mis au travail pour vous faire du bien, à partir de tout ce qui vous arrive.
Samuel Rutherford
Howbeit your faith seeth but the black side of Providence, yet it hath a better side, and God shall let you see it. We know that all things work together for good to them that love God; hence I infer that losses, disappointments, ill tongues, loss of friends, houses or country, are God's workmen, set on work to work out good to you, out of everything that befalleth you.
Samuel Rutherford
J.C. Ryle, Commentary: Matthew 4.
We must not count temptation a strange thing. "The disciple is not greater than his master, nor the servant than his lord." If Satan came to Christ, he will also come to Christians.
J.C. Ryle, Commentary: Matthew 4.
A.T. Pierson
There is a vast difference in the point of view from which circumstances are regarded. If they come between us and God they may hide God from us; if He comes between us and them, He may hide them from us, or even impart to them, when in themselves alone, they are dark and sad, a luster and a glory.
A.T. Pierson
"La science ne peut avoir de querelle avec une religion qui postule un Dieu dont les hommes sont les enfants."
Arthur Compton
“Science can have no quarrel with a religion which postulates a God to whom men are His children.”
Arthur Compton
• Lorsqu'ils se partagent ses vêtements et le laissent dans la nudité, en réalité ils ne font qu'accomplir le plan éternel de Dieu (Lc 23.34 ; cf. Ps 22.18)
• Lorsqu'ils le suspendent ensanglanté au bois, en réalité ils ne font qu'exalter sa royauté (Lc 23.38 ; cf. Jn 12.23)
• Et lorsque, finalement, il expire entre leurs mains, en réalité ils ne font que lui donner la victoire sur le péché et sur la mort (Mt 27.50-53).

Providence so orders the case, that faith and prayer come between our wants and supplies, and the goodness of God may be the more magnified in our eyes thereby.
