Abraham Booth
Divine grace disdains to be assisted in the performance of that work which peculiarly belongs to itself, by the poor, imperfect performances of men. Attempts to complete what grace begins, betray our pride and offend the Lord; but cannot promote spiritual interest. Let the reader, therefore, carefully remember, that grace is either absolutely free, or it is not at all: and, that he who professes to look for salvation by grace, either believes in his heart to be saved entirely by it, or he acts inconsistently in affairs of the greatest importance.
Abraham Booth
Les amis du libre arbitre sont les ennemis de la libre grâce.
John Trapp
The friends of free-will are the enemies of free-grace.

Joseph Stowell
We have unfortunately come to believe that a watching world will know that we are Christians by the worldly things we avoid or the churchy things we do. Christ has a different perspective. Our identity with Him is marked by the oneness that comes from our mutual love for each other.
Joseph Stowell
Raymond C. Ortlund Jr., Supernatural Living for Natural People
“Authentic Christianity is not increasing levels of commitment grudgingly given to God; it is surrender to Jesus out of a sense of privilege in having him.”
Raymond C. Ortlund Jr., Supernatural Living for Natural People
L'œuvre du salut, dans son sens plein, concerne (1) des êtres humains entiers, et pas seulement des âmes ; (2) le présent, et pas seulement l'avenir ; et (3) ce que Dieu fait par nous, et pas seulement ce qu'il fait en nous et pour nous.
N.T. Wright
The work of salvation, in its full sense, is (1) about whole human beings, not merely souls; (2) about the present, not simply the future; and (3) about what God does through us, not merely what God does in and for us.
N.T. Wright

When you begin to understand that WHERE you are right now doesn't define WHO you are, or WHOSE you are, you'll understand that each moment in your life is a stepping stone that will lead you to your destiny. Everything that happens in your life is a blessing and a lesson. It may not seem like a blessing at the moment, but when you progress in life and you look back at where you were, you will see God's hand lead you right to the place you needed.

Augustin
We do good deeds, but God works in us in the doing of them.
Augustine
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.
Gene Getz, Encouraging One Another, Cook Communication Ministries, 1985, p. 17-18.
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.
Donald S. Whitney
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.
