John Fawcett, Christ Precious.
When you are tempted to any vanity – set the blessed Redeemer before you, consider His example, and ask yourself, “How would Jesus, my Lord and Master, have acted in such a case? Would He have spent His time upon such trifles? Would He have spoken such and such; or done this or the other thing, which I am solicited to do? And shall I give way to that which would be a manifest deviation from His holy example? God forbid!”
John Fawcett, Christ Precious.
G.K. Chesterton
The issue is now clear. It is between light and darkness and everyone must choose his side.
G.K. Chesterton
Thomas Schreiner
I think we also learn from this to be charitable towards different views. Each person must be fully convinced in his own mind, at least if you can be. But we must distinguish between central issues of the faith and issues which aren’t central. Some people have a hard time doing that. Everything for them is of equal importance in the Bible. But that’s not true. There are some things that are non-negotiable in our faith. The Trinity is non-negotiable. The authority of Scripture is non-negotiable. The substitutionary atonement, justification by faith alone, the deity of Christ, and, of course, I could mention other things. But there are less clear matters in the Bible as well; things like when the rapture will take place and what we’re looking at today regarding the millennium. We must beware of being divisive, and schismatic, and inflexible on matters that are less important. That really shows, I think, a character flaw in us – something that God wants to work on in us.
Thomas Schreiner
La venue du Prince de la paix est une promesse que tout ce qui est endommagé par le péché sera restauré.
Paul David Tripp
The Coming of the Prince of Peace is a promise that everything that is damaged by sin will be restored.
Paul David Tripp
Thomas Brooks
Nothing humbles and breaks the heart of a sinner like mercy and love. Souls that converse much with sin and wrath, may be much terrified; but souls that converse much with grace and mercy, will be much humbled.
Thomas Brooks
Oswald Chambers
Conscience is that faculty in me which attaches itself to the highest that I know, and tells me what the highest I know demands that I do. It is the eye of the soul which looks out either toward God or toward what it regards as the highest authority. If I am in the habit of steadily facing toward God, my conscience will always introduce God’s perfect law and indicate what I should do. The point is, will I obey? I have to make an effort to keep my conscience so sensitive that I walk without offense. I should be living in such perfect sympathy with God’s Son that in every circumstance the spirit of my mind is renewed. The one thing that keeps the conscience sensitive to Him is the habit of being open to God on the inside. When there is any debate, quit. There is no debate possible when conscience speaks.
Oswald Chambers
William Tiptaft
Deliver us from everything that may entangle our affections and harden our hearts.

John Lloyd Ogilvie, God's best for my life
Prayer is meditating in a way that our minds and hearts become focused around the positive power of the Lord and not just our perplexities. Then peace replaces problematical living.

Watchman Nee
God has supplied all my needs and has not failed me once.

Randy Smith
So, God wants you to have a convictions. God wants you to love Him with all your mind and seek to live for His glory with a clear conscience in all the gray areas of the Christian life that we are dealing with these days. But remember, our convictions must not contradict Scripture and should be in line with general biblical principles. They should be wise and not unnecessarily ruin our relationship with unbelievers. And they should obey God-given authority and not cause another believer to sin.
Randy Smith
John Selden
As in the candle I know there is both light and heat, but put out the candle, and they are both gone.

Pamela Christian
How could we have any sense of insignificance unless we were created to have significance?
Pamela Christian
Thomas a Kempis
God often gives in one brief moment that which He has for a long time denied.

John MacArthur, 2 Corinthiens, Moody Publishers, 2003, p. 176.
In that day, the full truth about their lives, character, and deeds will be made clear to each believer. Each will discover the real verdict on his or her ministry, service, and motives. All hypocrisy and pretense will be stripped away; all temporal matters with no eternal significance will vanish like wood, hay, and stubble, and only what is to be rewarded as eternally valuable will be left.
John MacArthur, 2 Corinthians, Moody Publishers, 2003, p. 176.
Neil T. Anderson
But as long as we live on the earth, we are still on Satan's turf. He will try to rule our lives by deceiving us into believing that we still belong to him.
Neil T. Anderson
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
To endure the cross is not tragedy; it is the suffering which is the fruit of an exclusive allegiance to Jesus Christ.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Alan Keyes
When are Christian folks going to remember that every time you call yourself a Christian, you invoke the name of God, and that if you then walk a walk that does not reflect the presence of Christ in your life, cast a vote that does not reflect the presence of Christ in your life, then you are taking the name of the Lord your God in vain?
Alan Keyes
