Charles Spurgeon
A sacred regard to the authority of God ought to lead us to reject an error, however old, sanctioned by whatever authority, or however generally practiced.

WILLIAM EWART GLADSTONE (1809-1898) PREMIER MINISTRE DE LA GRANDE-BRETAGNE
Talk about the questions of the day; there is but one question, and that is the gospel. It can and will correct everything needing correction.
WILLIAM EWART GLADSTONE (1809–1898) PRIME MINISTER OF GREAT BRITAIN
Au lieu de cela, cette nouvelle vie dans laquelle Dieu entre semble être la vie la plus calme, la plus naturellement humaine qui ait jamais été vue sur la terre. Elle se glisse à sa place comme la lumière du soleil. Elle semble rendre évident que Dieu et l'homme sont essentiellement si proches l'un de l'autre que la rencontre de leurs natures dans la vie d'un Dieu-homme n'a rien d'étrange. C'est ainsi que le Christ traite toujours de sa propre nature, acceptant sa divinité comme vous et moi acceptons notre humanité, et la laissant briller à travers l'enveloppe avec laquelle elle s'est le plus subtilement et mystérieusement mêlée, comme l'âme se mêle au corps et brille à travers lui.
Phillips Brooks (1835–1893)
If we had been told that God was coming into a man’s life…that must be something very terrible and awful. That certainly must rend and tear the life to which God comes. At least, it will separate it and make it unnatural and strange. God fills a bush with His glory, and it burns. God enters into the great mountain, and it rocks with an earthquake. When He comes to occupy a man, He must distort the humanity He occupies into some inhuman shape.
Instead of that, this new life into which God comes seems to be the most quietly, naturally human life that was ever seen upon the earth. It glides into its place like sunlight. It seems to make it evident that God and man are essentially so near together that the meeting of their natures in the life of a God-man is not strange. So always does Christ deal with His own nature, accepting His divinity as you and I accept our humanity, and letting it shine out through the envelope with which it has most subtly and mysteriously mingled, as the soul is mingled with and shines out through the body.
Phillips Brooks (1835–1893)
1. Le plaisir est tout simplement mauvais.
2. Le plaisir vous captive et vous captive.
3. Le plaisir est caché.
4. Le plaisir vous éloigne du bien.
5. Le plaisir n'est pas au rendez-vous.
David Powlison, Breaking the Addictive Cycle, New Growth Press, p. 8.
So how can you tell when a pleasure crosses the line from innocent to guilty?
1. The pleasure is plain wrong.
2. The pleasure captivates and captures you.
3. The pleasure is hidden.
4. The pleasure steals you away from the good.
5. The pleasure doesn’t deliver.
David Powlison, Breaking the Addictive Cycle, New Growth Press, p. 8.
WILLIAM TEMPLE (1881-1944)
ARCHEVÊQUE ANGLICAN DE CANTERBURY ET ÉCRIVAIN
Christ stimulates us, as other great men stimulate us,but we find a power coming from Him into our lives that enables us to respond. That is the experience that proves Him to be the universal Spirit.It does not happen with others.
WILLIAM TEMPLE (1881–1944)
ANGLICAN ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY AND WRITER
C'est l'activité la plus élevée de l'âme humaine, et donc c'est en même temps le test ultime de la vraie condition spirituelle d'un homme. Il n'y a rien qui dit la vérité sur nous en tant que chrétiens autant que notre vie de prière. Tout ce que nous faisons dans la vie chrétienne est plus facile que la prière."
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
J.C. Ryle, Holiness, Moody Publishers, 2010, p. 58.
Evidence, evidence, evidence, will be the one thing wanted when the great white throne is set, when the books are opened, when the graves give up their tenants, when the dead are arraigned before the bar of God. Without some evidence that our faith in Christ was real and genuine, we shall only rise again to be condemned. I can find no evidence that will be admitted in that day, except sanctification. The question will not be how we talked and what we professed, but how we lived and what we did. Let no man deceive himself on this point. If anything is certain about the future, it is certain that there will be a judgment; and if anything is certain about judgment, it is certain that men’s “works” and “doings” will be considered and examined in it (Jn. 5:29; 2 Cor. 5:10; Rev. 20:13). He that supposes works are of no importance, because they cannot justify us, is a very ignorant Christian. Unless he opens his eyes, he will find to his cost that if he comes to the bar of God without some evidence of grace, he had better never have been born.
J.C. Ryle, Holiness, Moody Publishers, 2010, p. 58.
Charles H. Spurgeon
This is noble encouragement to all the saints; die they must, but rise they shall, and though in their case they shall see corruption, yet they shall rise to everlasting life. Christ’s resurrection is the cause, the earnest, the guarantee, and the emblem of the rising of all His people. Let them, therefore, go to their graves as to their beds, resting their flesh among the clods as they now do upon their couches.
Charles H. Spurgeon
Robert Murray McCheyne
The dust of Lazarus was dear to Jesus; He would not leave it in the rocky tomb. So is the dust of every Lazarus dear in His sight. He will not lose so much as one of them. Wherever they lie, it matters not - beneath the deep blue sea, or on some distant battlefield, or consumed in flame and smoke - the Lord Jesus will yet collect their scattered dust, sand make them like His own glorious body.
Robert Murray McCheyne
Dwight L. Moody
Praise is not only speaking to the Lord on our own account, but it is praising Him for what He has done for others.
Dwight L. Moody
Si vous voulez vivre un changement permanent, cesser de vous concentrer sur la grandeur de vos problèmes et commencer à vous concentrer sur la grandeur de votre Dieu !

John MacArthur
The antidote for covetousness is contentment. The two are in opposition. Whereas the covetous, greedy person worships himself, the contented person worships God. Contentment comes from trusting God.
John MacArthur
Matthew Henry, Commentaire, 1 Samuel 24:5.
It is a good thing to have a heart within us smiting us for sins that seem little; it is a sign that conscience is awake and tender, and will be the means of preventing greater sins.
Matthew Henry, Commentary, 1 Samuel 24:5.
Sir James Jeans, mathématicien, physicien et astronome chevalier qui a contribué à développer notre compréhension de l'évolution des étoiles, a écrit ceci dans son livre The Mysterious Universe (Cambridge, 1931).
“There is a wide measure of agreement which, on the physical side of science approaches almost unanimity, that the stream of knowledge is heading towards a non-mechanical reality; the universe begins to look more like a great thought than a great machine. Mind no longer appears as an accidental intruder into the realm of matter. We are beginning to suspect that we ought rather to hail mind as the creator and governor of the realm of matter—not of course our individual minds, but the mind in which the atoms out of which our individual minds have grown, exist as thoughts.”
Sir James Jeans knighted mathematician, physicist and astronomer who helped develop our understanding of the evolution of stars, wrote this in his book The Mysterious Universe (Cambridge, 1931).
Charles Spurgeon
I have a great need for Christ; I have a great Christ for my need.
Charles Spurgeon
Pourquoi ici encore, croire que je vous attends ?
Pourquoi vous comporter comme si c'était fini ?
Je suis ressuscité comme je vous l'avais dit !
Oui, je suis mort pour vous, c'est là que tout commence !
Arrêtez, levez-vous, croyez en ma puissance !
Oui je me suis livré pour vous prouver mon amour.
Je suis ressuscité pour vous porter secours !
Réjouissez-vous car, oui, j'ai vaincu la mort !
Je vous donne mon pouvoir, qu'attendez-vous encore ?
Oui une vie de victoire est pour vous désormais
Et un nouveau départ pour vous tous qui croyez !
Débora Perraud, Jésus est ressuscité

In Jesus Christ on the Cross there is refuge; there is safety; there is shelter; and all the power of sin upon our track cannot reach us when we have taken shelter under the Cross that atones for our sins.

Every powerful movement has had its philosophy which has gripped the mind, fired the imagination and captured the devotion of its adherents.
