Jerry Bridges, The Gospel for Real Life, 2002, p. 70.
God has given each of us a conscience, a moral compass within our hearts, bearing witness to His Law. In sinful or self-righteous people (that is, people whose dominant characteristics are either obvious sin or obvious self-righteousness) the conscience is to some degree “hardened.” That is, it is relatively insensitive to sin or its own self-righteousness. But in a growing Christian the conscience becomes more and more sensitive to violations of God’s Law. As a result, our consciences continually indict us, accusing us of not only particular sins, but, more important, of our overall sinfulness. We recognize more and more that specific acts of sin are simply the expressions of our still-wicked hearts.

Dwight L. Moody
There is no sin in the whole catalogue of sins you can name but Christ will deliver you from it perfectly.

Jean Calvin
We must not think that [God] takes no notice of us, when He does not answer our wishes: for He has a right to distinguish what we actually need.
John Calvin
Jonathan Edwards
The devil can counterfeit all the saving operations and graces of the Spirit of God.

Alexander Whyte
Prayer worth calling prayer, prayer that God will call true prayer and will treat as true prayer, takes for more time by the clock than one man in a thousand thinks.

Randy Smith
Similar to the instructions we pass along to our children for their physical safety, our Father in heaven gives us His instruction for our spiritual safety. Yet like ignorant and carefree children, we at times ignore His teaching. We at times want to do things according to our own estimation apart from the Scriptures. And when we do this, God in His mercy allows us to feel pain. Guilt is a gift from God that makes us sensitive to sin. Another word for this that we commonly use is conviction.

Sam Storms, Leasures Evermore : The Life-Changing Power of Knowing God, 2000, p. 20.
How do you fight the pleasure of sin? I’ll tell you: with another pleasure. Holiness is not attained, at least not in any lasting, life-changing way, merely through prohibitions, threats, fear, or shame-based appeals. Holiness is attained by believing in, trusting, banking on, resting in, savoring, and cherishing God’s promise of a superior happiness that comes only by falling in love with Jesus. The power that the pleasures of sin exert on the human soul will ultimately be overcome only by the superior power of the pleasures of knowing and being known, loving and being loved by God in Christ.

Jean Calvin
The word hope I take for faith; and indeed hope is nothing else but the constancy of faith.
John Calvin
Daniel Fuller, The Unity of the Bible, Zondervan, 1992, p. 121, 129, 136.
Creation of the world was not a necessary act that God undertook to overcome loneliness…(and) God certainly did not create the world in order to become more glorious (Jn. 17:5). …(On the contrary, God created the world) because He looked forward to the greater blessings that would be His as His glory and goodness met real needs in the lives of people whom He would create, who would depend on Him for joy and fulfillment. …God’s ultimate purpose is to increase His joy by sharing the blessing of the Trinity in creation.
Daniel Fuller, The Unity of the Bible, Zondervan, 1992, p. 121, 129, 136.
O Christ, mon Maître et Seigneur, accorde-moi de te connaître plus clairement, de t'aimer plus tendrement, de te suivre plus fidèlement, jour après jour.

O Christ, my Master and Lord, grant that I may know thee more clearly, love thee more dearly, follow thee more nearly, day by day.

ALFRED EDERSHEIM (1825-1889)
BIBLISTE ANGLICAN
No picture of the Christ more dear to us, than this of the unlimited healing of whatever disease of body or soul. In its blessed indefiniteness it conveys the infinite potential of relief, whatever misery fall on us, or whatever care or sorrow oppress us. He must be blind, indeed, who sees not in this Physician the Divine Healer; in this Christ the Light of the World.
ALFRED EDERSHEIM (1825–1889)

When the great promise of the Spirit was fulfilled on the day of Pentecost, it was fulfilled not in reference to the apostles only.
