If our sins outnumbered the number of the hairs on our head; yet the merits of the death of Jesus Christ are infinitely greater, and faith in His blood shall make them white as snow.

What’s in your heart? Your words spring from what’s in your heart. If your heart is contaminated, then your words will be tainted also. Try this: For every complaint, dissatisfaction find and meditate upon a scripture that counters the complaint. So speak God’s Word every time you feel negativity rising up inside of you. Before you speak negatively, censor your mouth with God’s Word. Allow God to filter your heart and He will direct your path.

Francis Frangipane
We can be assured that each step deeper into the Lord's Presence will reveal areas in our hearts which need to be cleansed. Do not be afraid. When the Spirit shows you areas of sin, it is not to condemn you, but to cleanse you.

God’s peace does not peacefully coexist with falsehood, sham, or injustice; so Gods’ peacemakers cannot simply ignore peace-destroying sin and error, any more than a surgeon can simply close up an infection wound: an abscess is bound to develop.

God interrupt whatever we are doing so that we can join You in what You’re doing.

PASTEUR ET THÉOLOGIEN LUTHÉRIEN ALLEMAND (EMPRISONNÉ ET EXÉCUTÉ PAR LES NAZIS)
Why do I forget God’s Word? . . . To forget is not only a matter of the mind but also of the whole person, including the heart. That on which my life and soul depend I cannot forget. The more I begin to love the ordinances of God in creation and in his Word, the more they will be present for me at every hour. Only love guards against forgetting.

Mike Smith
I have never known a pastor to be fired for prayerlessness, even though I expect that many justly could have been (myself included). There are at least three reasons for this. First, congregations rarely hold a pastor accountable for his devotional life. Second, pastors themselves too infrequently seek such accountability. Third, pastors can conceal the neglect of private duties more easily than the neglect of public duties. But what does such private neglect reveal? That a pastor fears man more than he fears God.

Jean Chrysostome
Whether or not our prayer is heard depends not on the number of our words, but on the fervor of our souls.
John Chrysostom
Bruce Ware
As wonderful as the intermediate state is for believers – we are with the Lord – it still falls short of the fullness God has for us when we are given glorified bodies and restored fully into the image of the risen Christ to live with Him forever. So our real hope is the blessed coming of the Lord when the resurrection takes place. The intermediate state is simply a step in that direction, but not the fullness of what God has for us.
Bruce Ware
John Cheeseman, Saving Grace, 1999, p. 113.
Evangelism is not persuading people to make a decision; it is not proving that God exists, or making out a good case for the truth of Christianity; it is not inviting someone to a meeting; it is not exposing the contemporary dilemma, or arousing interest in Christianity; it is not wearing a badge saying, “Jesus Saves!” Some of these things may be right and good in their place, but none of them should be confused with evangelism. To evangelize is to declare on the authority of God what He has done to save sinners, to warn men of their lost condition, to direct them to repent, and to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.
John Cheeseman, Saving Grace, 1999, p. 113.
Martin Luther
Riches are the pettiest and least worthy gifts which God can give a man. What are they to God's Word, to bodily gifts, such as beauty and health; or to the gifts of the mind, such as understanding, skill, wisdom! Yet men toil for them day and night, and take no rest. Therefore God commonly gives riches to foolish people to whom he gives nothing else.
Martin Luther
Dieu peut faire en sorte que les pires choses qui soient arrivées dans votre vie fonctionnent pour le meilleur, si vous avez la foi.
Zac Poonen
God can make the very worst things that ever happened in your life to work for your very best, if you have faith.
Zac Poonen
Charles H. Spurgeon
[The resurrection of the body] is the Christian’s brightest hope. Many believers make a mistake when they long to die and long for Heaven. Those things may be desirable, but they are not the ultimate for the saints. The saints in Heaven are perfectly free from sin and, so far as they are capable of it, are perfectly happy. But a disembodied spirit never can be perfect until it is reunited to its body. God made man not pure spirit but body and spirit, and the spirit alone will never be content until it sees its physical frame raised to its own condition of holiness and glory. Think not that our longings here below are not shared in by the saints in Heaven. They do not groan so far as any pain can be, but they long with greater intensity than you and I for the “adoption…the redemption of our bodies.” People have said there is no faith in Heaven, and no hope. They know not what they say – in Heaven faith and hope have their fullest swing and their brightest sphere, for glorified saints believe in God’s promise and hope for the resurrection of the body.
Charles H. Spurgeon
Nous nous inquiéterions moins si nous passions plus de temps dans la louanges. L'action de grâce est l'ennemi du mécontentement et de l'insatisfaction.
Harry Ironside
We would worry less if we praised more. Thanksgiving is the enemy of discontent and dissatisfaction.

John Armstrong, Feed My Sheep, ed. Don Kistler, Soli Deo Gloria Ministries, 2002, p. 170.
[Theology] is the study of God. It is the inquiry of God. It is the searching and understanding of God and the meaning of His word, His truth and His revelation. It is the activity of thinking: thinking about God and asking ultimate questions. It is the activity that thought produces speech, and speech produces a reflection…

Origène
If all things were made through Him, clearly so must the splendid revelations have been which were made to the fathers and prophets, and became to them the symbols of the sacred mysteries of religion.
Origen
WILLIAM BARCLAY
THÉOLOGIEN, ÉCRIVAIN RELIGIEUX ET ANIMATEUR ÉCOSSAIS
To Jesus religion was service. It was love of God and love of men. Ritual was irrelevant compared with love in action. To Jesus the most important thing in the world was not the correct performance of a ritual, but the spontaneous answer to the cry of human need.
