Hudson Taylor
I am no longer anxious about anything, as I realize the Lord is able to carry out His will, and His will is mine. It makes no matter where He places me, or how. That is rather for Him to consider than for me; for in the easiest positions He must give me His grace, and in the most difficult, His grace is sufficient.
Hudson Taylor
Et à cause de sa domination, il est appelé Seigneur Dieu Pantokrator". Car "dieu" est un mot relatif et fait référence aux serviteurs, et la divinité est la seigneurie de Dieu, non pas sur son propre corps "comme le supposent ceux pour qui Dieu est l'âme du monde", mais sur les serviteurs.
Isaac Newton
He rules all things, not as the world soul but as the lord of all.
And because of his dominion he is called Lord God Pantokrator". For “god" is a relative word and has reference to servants, and godhood is the lordship of God, not over his own body "as is supposed by those for whom God is the world soul', but over servants.

Why the Holy Spirit should be restricted so that He can only be at work at the moment a sermon is delivered and not in the thoughtful and prayerful preparation beforehand, I don’t know. The same mistake was made by an actual preacher who used to prepare the first half of his sermons and then freewheel the second half, wishing to “depend on the Holy Spirit for inspiration.” One astute lady listening to him one day was perplexed by the change that took place halfway through the sermon. Afterwards she asked the preacher what happened. So he explained his method to which she replied, “That is strange. You are a better preacher than the Holy Spirit!”

Charles H. Spurgeon
Child of God, you cost Christ too much for Him to forget you.

Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Studies in the Sermon on the Mount, 1959-1960, p. 196.
Our Lord does not promise to change life for us; He does not promise to remove difficulties and trials and problems and tribulations; He does not say that He is going to cut out all the thorns and leave the roses with their wonderful perfume. No; He faces life realistically, and tells us that these are things to which the flesh is heir, and which are bound to come. But He assures us that we can so know Him that, whatever happens, we need never be frightened, we need never be alarmed.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Studies in the Sermon on the Mount, 1959-1960, p. 196.
Jonathan Edwards
Every saint in heaven is as a flower in the garden of God, and holy love is the fragrance and sweet odor that they all send forth, and with which they fill the bowers of that paradise above. Every soul there is as a note in some concert of delightful music that sweetly harmonizes with every other note, and all together blend in the most rapturous strains in praising God and the Lamb forever.
Jonathan Edwards

Those who know where the treasure lies joyfully abandon everything else to secure it.

Leonard Ravenhill
A man may study because his brain is hungry for knowledge, even Bible knowledge. But he prays because his soul is hungry for God.

John MacArthur, The Battle for the Beginning, 2001, p. 138.
Honest scientists must admit that all of life had to be designed by an immensely intelligent mind. The more science looks at life, the more complex it becomes. The human brain is far more complex than NASA’s space shuttle. The brain alone is made up of at least six million functioning parts. No one would imagine that the space shuttle evolved by chance from nothing. Why should we have such a view of life itself?
John MacArthur, The Battle for the Beginning, 2001, p. 138.
Ainsi, peu importe à quel point certains peuvent penser que la prédication par exposition est inefficace dans notre société technologique et médiatique, peu importe à quel point d'autres méthodes peuvent sembler plus excitantes ou divertissantes pour l'homme et la femme moderne, le moyen le plus efficace pour convaincre et enseigner les âmes restera toujours la communication fidèle de l'Évangile de Jésus-Christ et l'enseignement conforme à la saine doctrine de la Parole de Dieu, car c'est l'unique moyen que Dieu a choisit. 2 Timothée 4.2 "prêche la parole, insiste en toute occasion, favorable ou non, reprends, censure, exhorte, avec toute douceur et en instruisant."
Ne cédons pas aux appels de la chair et aux attraits du divertissements qu'elle affectionne. Le prédicateur n'a pas pour mission d'occuper les esprits, mais d'annoncer le seul message qui soit capable de les changer."

Christ never said much in mere words about the Christian graces. He lived them, He was them. Yet we do not merely copy Him. We learn His art by living with Him.

DESIDERIUS ROTTERDAMUS ERASMUS (C. 1469-1536) HUMANISTE CHRÉTIEN NÉERLANDAIS
O Lord Jesus Christ, Who art the Way, the Truth, and the Life, we pray Thee suffer us not to stray from Thee, who art the Way, nor to distrust Thee, who art the Truth, nor to rest in any other thing than Thee, who art the Life. Teach us by Thy Holy Spirit what to believe, what to do, and wherein to take our rest.

Dwight L. Moody
Jesus came to deliver us from our sinful dispositions, and create in us pure hearts, and when we have Him with us it will not be hard for us. Then the service of Christ will be delightful.

Watchman Nee
People shall never enter the kingdom of God through our encouragement, persuasion, argument, inducement, excitement, or attraction; entrance can be gained only by new birth, by nothing less than the resurrection of the spirit.

To simply dismiss the concept of God as being unscientific is to violate the very objectivity of science itself.

Charles H. Spurgeon
Doth not all nature around me praise God? If I were silent, I should be an exception to the universe. Doth not the thunder praise Him as it rolls like drums in the march of the God of armies? Do not the mountains praise Him when the woods upon their summits wave in adoration? Doth not the lightning write His name in letters of fire? Hath not the whole earth a voice? And shall I, can I, silent be?
Charles H. Spurgeon
