Kris Lundgaard, The Enemy Within, 1998, p. 65.
Your flesh will whisper to you that strictness and anxious care about obedience are legalism – the gospel came to deliver you from such things! And besides, if you really do commit a sin, you can be forgiven later.
Kris Lundgaard, The Enemy Within, 1998, p. 65.

ANCIEN CONSEILLER DE LA MAISON BLANCHE ET FONDATEUR DE LA FRATERNITÉ DES PRISONS
The Bible—banned, burned, beloved. More widely read, more frequently attacked than any other book in history. Generations of intellectuals have attempted to discredit it; dictators of every age have outlawed it and executed those who read it. Yet soldiers carry it into battle believing it more powerful than their weapons. Fragments of it smuggled into solitary prison cells have transformed ruthless killers into gentle saints.

Samuel Prime
It belongs to the very idea and nature of man to be in communion with God. It was once said to a useful minister, “Sir, if you did not plough in your closet, you would not reap in your pulpit”.
Samuel Prime
Erroll Hulse
A ministry which is weak and flabby on the subject of sin is a useless ministry. A preaching ministry that does not result in conviction of sin is useless. If is does not wound, how can it heal? The good news is only for sinners.

Prayer can never be in excess.

What will a church look like that is committed to the ordinary means of grace? It will be characterized by love for expository preaching, passion for worship, delight in truth, embrace of the Gospel, the Spirit’s work of conversion, a life of godliness; robust family religion; biblical evangelism; biblical discipleship, biblical church membership, mutual accountability in the church, biblical church leadership, and a desire to be a blessing to the nations. Along with this all, there will be an unapologetic, humble, and joyful celebration of the transcendent sovereignty of the one, true, triune God in salvation and all things.

Because of these remnants of sin dwelling in them and also because of the temptations of the world and Satan, those who have been converted could not remain standing in this grace if left to their own resources. But God is faithful, mercifully strengthening them in the grace once conferred on them and powerfully preserving them in it to the end.

Il est venu la première fois pour mourir ; Il revient pour ressusciter les morts. La première fois qu'Il est venu, on s'est demandé s'Il était Roi ; la prochaine fois, le monde saura qu'Il est Roi des rois et Seigneur des seigneurs. La première fois, Il portait une couronne d'épines ; la prochaine fois, Il portera une couronne de gloire. La première fois, Il est venu dans la pauvreté ; la prochaine fois, Il viendra dans la puissance. La première fois, Il avait une escorte d'anges ; la prochaine fois, Il viendra avec dix mille de Ses saints. La première fois qu'il est venu dans la douceur, il reviendra dans la majesté.
Adrian Rogers
He came the first time to die; He is coming again to raise the dead. When He came the first time, they questioned whether He was King; the next time the world will know that He is King of kings and Lord of lords. The first time He wore a crown of thorns; the next time He will be wearing a crown of glory. The first time He came in poverty; the next time He is coming in power. The first time He had an escort of angels; the next time He will come with ten thousands of His saints. The first time He came in meekness; He is coming again in majesty.

John Piper
God promises spectacular blessings to those of you who remain single in Christ, and He gives you and extraordinary calling for your life. To be single in Christ is, therefore, not a falling short of God's best, but a path of Christ-exalting, covenant-keeping obedience that many are called to walk.
John Piper

What can I give back to God for the blessings he's poured out on me? I'll lift high the cup of salvation - a toast to God!

Sam Storms, Pleasures Evermore : The Life-Changing Power of Knowing God, 2000, p. 201-202.
A heart full of thoughts about the splendor of who God is and what God does can no more conceive of an end of praise than it can conceive of an end of God.
Sam Storms, Pleasures Evermore: The Life-Changing Power of Knowing God, 2000, p. 201-202.
Robert Peterson, Hell on Trial : The Case for Eternal Punishment, 1995, p. 192.
If we take literally the image of hell as fire, it clashes with the other images of hell, for example, hell as darkness, or hell as the wicked being cut to pieces (Matthew 24:51). Rather than giving us literal pictures of the fate of the wicked, God uses dreaded pictures from this world to present the terrible reality of hell in the next world. I stand with the majority of contemporary conservative scholars in understanding the biblical imagery of hell metaphorically rather than literally.

If man is man, and God is God, to live without prayer is not merely an awful thing; it is an infinitely foolish thing.

Charles H. Spurgeon
In the morning – this is the fittest time for intercourse with God. An hour in the morning is worth two in the evening. While the dew is on the grass, let grace drop upon the soul. Let us give to God the mornings of our days and the morning of our lives. Prayer should be the key of the day and the lock of the night.
Charles H. Spurgeon
Ravi Zacharias, This We Believe, Zondervan, 2000, p. 33.
The search for truth then becomes all-pervasive, drawing implications for the essence and destiny of life itself. Even if not overtly admitted, the search for truth is nevertheless hauntingly present, propelled by the need for incontrovertible answers to four inescapable questions, those dealing with origin, meaning, morality, and destiny – connecting the what with the why. No thinking person can avoid this search, and it can only end when one is convinced that the answers espoused are true. Aristotle was right when he said that all philosophy begins with wonder; but the journey, I suggest, can only progress with truth.

John MacArthur, Matthieu 16-23, Moody, 1988, p. 49.
When the disciples and the crowd heard Jesus speak of taking up the cross, there was nothing mystical to them about the idea. They immediately pictured a poor, condemned soul walking along the road carrying (which is an accurate translation of airo, meaning “to raise, beat, or carry”) the instrument of his execution on his back. A man who took up his cross began his death march, carrying the very beam on which he would hang.
John MacArthur, Matthew 16-23, Moody, 1988, p. 49.
