Although believers by nature, are far from God, and children of wrath, even as others, yet it is amazing to think how nigh they are brought to him again by the blood of Jesus Christ.

J.C. Ryle, Commentaire, Matthieu 17.
Our Lord would have us regard the crucifixion as the central truth of Christianity. Right views of His vicarious death, and the benefits resulting from it, lie at the very foundation of Bible-religion. Never let us forget this… If we are wrong here, we are ruined forever. Error on many other points is only a skin disease. Error about Christ’s death is a disease at the heart. Here let us take our stand. Let nothing move us from this ground. The sum of all our hopes must be, that “Christ has died for us.” (1 Thess. 5:10.) Give up that doctrine, and we have no solid hope at all.
J.C. Ryle, Commentary, Matthew 17.
Nous devons savoir que nos limites ne définissent pas nos limites. Et c'est exactement ce que fait un tombeau vide.
Craig D. Lounsbrough
We need to know that our limits do not define our limitations. And an empty tomb does exactly that.
Craig D. Lounsbrough
Mais Dieu a trouvé son plaisir dans l’humble Jésus, et l’a montré : “C’est pourquoi aussi Dieu l’a élevé très haut” (Philippiens 2. 9). “Dieu… l’a ressuscité d’entre les morts et lui a donné la gloire” (1 Pierre 1. 21).

Jesus imparts, through the way that He loves us, the ability to love others deeply and freely. The love of Jesus makes it possible to truly care for, fight for, and serve our friends without worry or fear that they will not love us back. The love of Jesus frees us from the need to fight for ourselves, to protect ourselves, or take the weaknesses and deficiencies of those we love personally. His love is what makes true friendships endure the difficult seasons of life.

Le troisième commandement pourrait bien être paraphrasé ainsi : "Tu n'utiliseras pas le nom du Seigneur sans y attacher de l'importance." Chaque fois que tu utilises le nom de Dieu, tu ferais mieux de vouloir dire quelque chose. Car Dieu prend vos paroles au sérieux, même si vous ne le faites pas.
Ray Pritchard
The Third Commandment might well be paraphrased, “You shall not use the name of the Lord without meaning something by it.” Every time you use God’s name, you’d better mean something by it. Because God takes your words seriously even if you don’t.

Paul Chappell
God does not need your money; He wants what it represents-you. Finances are God's gift to you to fulfill His will for your life. While God desires you to prioritize His work in giving, He wants you to purpose to follow and serve Him no matter what happens with your finances.

Jesus told us to begin prayer with “Our Father.” All true prayer starts with knowing you're speaking to a Father, not a slave owner.

Il s'agit d'un processus sans fin. Vous ne pourrez jamais sonder les profondeurs de l'amour de Dieu. Vous n'épuiserez jamais ses nouvelles ressources dans votre vie. Il n'y a ni hauteur, ni profondeur, ni aucune limite à la profondeur de votre croissance en Christ. Son Esprit continuera à élargir vos horizons.
Cela explique peut-être pourquoi les personnes vraiment saintes s'ennuient rarement.
Ken Abraham
Surrender completely every area of your life to the Lordship of Christ. Hold nothing back. Give Him all the keys. There’s no time for hypocrisy now. You cannot attempt to bargain with God (“I’ll give you this area, God, if You will give me that gift”) if you hope to enter into holiness. As you obey Christ and allow Him to have absolute control in your life, He will fill you with His Spirit. He will then continue to expand your capacity to be filled for the rest of your life, producing more and more of His character—the fruit of the Spirit—in you.
This is a never-ending process. You can never plumb the depths of God’s love. You will never exhaust His fresh supply of resources in your life. There is no height, nor depth, no limit at all to how deeply you can grow in Christ. His Spirit will continue to extend your horizons.
Maybe that explains why truly holy people rarely become bored.
Ken Abraham
Mais la foi n'est pas qu'un moyen d'atteindre l'inaccessible, elle nous permet aussi de pratiquer chaque jour avec fidélité toutes ces choses que Dieu a mises à notre portée."

Redemption consists primarily of casting out our mental idols and turning back to the true God. And when we do that, we will experience His transforming power renewing every aspect of our lives. To talk of a Christian Worldview is simply another way of saying that when we are redeemed, our entire outlook on life is re-centered on God and rebuilt on His revealed truth.

“Do not burn false fire upon God's altar; do not pose and pretend, either to Him or to yourself, in your religious exercises; do not say more than you mean, or use exaggerated language that goes beyond the facts, when speaking to Him whose word is truth.”
A. J. Gossip
Seuls ceux qui aiment vraiment le Christ sont aptes à exercer un ministère auprès de son troupeau ! Le travail est si laborieux, l'appréciation est souvent si faible, la réponse si décourageante, les critiques si dures, les attaques de Satan si féroces, que seul "l'amour du Christ" - le Sien pour nous et le nôtre pour Lui - peut "contraindre" à un tel travail. Les "mercenaires" nourriront les chèvres, mais seuls ceux qui aiment Christ peuvent nourrir Ses brebis.
A.W. Pink, The Gospel of John, Zondervan, 1975, p. 1139-1140.
It is only those who truly love Christ that are fitted to minister to His flock! The work is so laborious, the appreciation is often so small, the response so discouraging, the criticisms so harsh, the attacks of Satan so fierce, that only the “love of Christ” – His for us and ours for Him – can “constrain” to such work. “Hirelings” will feed the goats, but only those who love Christ can feed His sheep.
A.W. Pink, The Gospel of John, Zondervan, 1975, p. 1139-1140.
Tant qu’il en sera ainsi, nous éviterons la Croix.
Et si nous l’évitons, nous commençons à forger nos propres morts, et nous mourons des milliers de fois, tués et retués par nos angoisses."

The more you focus on what you are called to do, the less you become distracted by what someone else is or isn't doing. It's hard to run your race and your course while focusing on someone else's race and course.

As much as I would have loved to "change the world" (as my youthful zeal at an earlier season have driven such grandiose illusions), I have settled in at this point of my journey to realize the wisdom of simply praying, "Lord, change me."

Mark Batterson
Pride is a by-product of insecurity. And the more insecure a person is, the more monuments they need to build. There is a fine line between 'Thy kingdom come' and 'my kingdom come.' If you cross the line, your relationship with God is self-serving. You aren't serving God. You are using God. You aren't building altars to God. You are building monuments to yourself.
Mark Batterson
Bien sûr, il faut prendre "envoyé pour nous éprouver" dans le bon sens. Dieu n'a pas fait une expérience sur ma foi ou mon amour pour en connaître la qualité. Il le savait déjà. C'est moi qui ne le savais pas.
C.S. Lewis
Of course one must take “sent to try us” the right way. God has not been trying an experiment on my faith or love in order to find out their quality. He knew it already. It was I who didn’t.
