Augustin

Sans le message de la Bible, nous n'aurions rien pour nous encourager les uns les autres. Nous n'aurions aucune raison de nous rencontrer. Notre connaissance de Dieu serait si limitée que nous n'aurions aucun objet rationnel pour notre foi, aucune doctrine sur laquelle fonder notre espérance, et aucun moyen de connaître le sens même de l'amour authentique.
Gene Getz, Encouraging One Another, Cook Communication Ministries, 1985, p. 17-18.
Without the message of the Scriptures we would have nothing with which to encourage one another. We would have no purpose for meeting together. Our knowledge of God would be so limited we would have no rational object for our faith, no doctrine on which to build our hope, and no way of even knowing the meaning of genuine love.

Qu'il s'agisse de questions aussi cruciales que la mort de Jésus ou de sujets aussi banals que manger et boire, la Bible présente la gloire de Dieu comme l'ultime priorité et le critère définitif à l'aune duquel nous devons tout évaluer.
Donald S. Whitney
From matters as crucial as the death of Jesus, to those as mundane as eating and drinking, the Bible presents the glory of God as the ultimate priority and the definitive criterion by which we should evaluate everything.

Martin Luther
Our most merciful Father…sent His only Son into the world, and laid upon Him all the sins of all men, saying, Be Thou Peter that denier; Paul that persecutor, blasphemer and cruel oppressor; David that adulterer; that sinner which did eat the apple in Paradise; that thief which hanged upon the cross; and briefly be Thou the person which hath committed the sins of all men; see therefore that Thou pay and satisfy for them [all].
Martin Luther
George Whitefield
A true faith in Jesus Christ will not suffer us to be idle. No, it is an active, lively, restless principle; it fills the heart, so that it cannot be easy till it is doing something for Jesus Christ.
George Whitefield

Burk Parsons
Theology is not a philosophical pursuit of abstract speculations about God. It is in fact the examination of that which God has revealed to us. As faithful students of the Word of God, we are, by necessity, students of theology. The two are not at odds with each other; rather they serve to complement one another. Whereas the Word of God is the foundation of our knowledge, theology is the expression of our knowledge. Thus, the study of God cannot be separated from the Word of God.

Bob Deffinbaugh
It is the grace of God that fallen men most detest. If lost men really thought that God is a harsh and cruel deity who deals severely with all who offend Him, they would cower in His presence, and they would do everything possible to avoid His wrath. Men do not fear God, however; they disdain Him. They interpret His grace as weakness and His delay of judgment as inability to achieve His purposes. Men who are sinners do not want to admit their own guilt and thus do not want to petition God for grace. They will have heaven on their own terms or not at all. Thus lost men will go to hell because they hate grace and will have none of it.

Dan Ham
When Jesus said to love your enemies and bless those who curse you and do good to those who hate you and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, what kind of person or political group or politician did he exempt?

Charles H. Spurgeon
Another proof of the conquest of a soul for Christ will be found in a real change of life. If the man does not live differently from what he did before, both at home and abroad, his repentance needs repented of, and his conversion is a fiction.
Charles H. Spurgeon
Si quelqu'un pense qu'en raison de nos épreuves de foi au cours de cette année, nous avons été déçus dans nos attentes ou découragés dans le travail, je réponds que c'est tout le contraire. De tels jours étaient attendus dès le début. Le but principal pour lequel l'institution a été établie est que l'Église voie la main de Dieu se tendre en notre faveur en réponse à la prière. Notre désir, par conséquent, n'est pas que nous soyons sans épreuves de foi, mais que le Seigneur nous soutienne gracieusement dans l'épreuve et que nous ne le déshonorions pas par la méfiance.
George Muller, The Autobiography of George Muller, 1984, p. 130.
If anyone thinks that on account of our trials of faith during this year we have been disappointed in our expectations or discouraged in the work, my answer is that the very opposite is true. Such days were expected from the beginning. The chief end for which the institution was established is that the Church would see the hand of God stretched out on our behalf in answer to prayer. Our desire, therefore, is not that we may be without trials of faith, but that the Lord would graciously support us in the trial and that we may not dishonor Him by distrust.
George Muller, The Autobiography of George Muller, 1984, p. 130.
John Piper
Some say pray and pray and don’t lean on the unspiritual work of human study. Others say, study and study because God is not going to tell you the meaning of a word in prayer. But the Bible will not have anything to do with this dichotomy. We must study and accurately handle the Word of God, and we must pray or we will not see in the Word the one thing needful, the glory of God in the face of Christ.
John Piper
Il me semble toujours inexplicable que ceux qui revendiquent si hardiment le libre arbitre pour l'homme ne laissent pas également un certain libre arbitre à Dieu. Pourquoi Jésus-Christ n'aurait-il pas le droit de choisir sa propre épouse ?
Charles H. Spurgeon
It always seems inexplicable to me that those who claim free will so very boldly for man should not also allow some free will to God. Why should not Jesus Christ have the right to choose his own bride?
Charles H. Spurgeon
