The gospel is open to all; the most respectable sinner has no more claim on it than the worst.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Les gens demanderont : "Pourquoi n'ai-je pas été informé au carrefour de ce Jésus ?"
Merci, Seigneur, de nous fortifier par l'amour d'un Sauveur mourant, la puissance d'un Sauveur ressuscité, la prière d'un Sauveur ascendant et la gloire d'un Sauveur éternel.
Corrie ten Boom
How do you think of yourself—as owner or as captain of what you possess? Are you delivering the goods? The world does not read the Bible—it reads you and me. The godly man is the ungodly man’s Bible. Are you growing like Peter? Are you glowing like Stephen? Are you going like Paul?
People will ask: “Why was I not told back at the crossroads of this Jesus?”
Thank You, Lord, that You will strengthen us by a dying Savior’s love, a risen Savior’s power, an ascended Savior’s prayer, and an eternal Savior’s glory.

Martyn Lloyd-Jones, La dépression spirituelle - ses causes et ses remèdes, 1965, p. 93-94.
Redemption is a greater work even than creation, and especially when we consider the way in which God has achieved it, even through the sending of His only Begotten Son into this world in all the marvel and the wonder and the miracle of the Incarnation, but above all in delivering Him up to the Death upon the Cross. This is the supreme thing – that sinful fallen man can be redeemed and restored, and ultimately the whole of creation also.

John Hagee
Since my money is God's money, every spending decision I make is a spiritual decision.

Leadership should expound strongly on the truth instead of focusing on that which is false. Deceit cannot stand against the authority, strength, and wisdom of prayerful, godly leadership.

Irénée
Error indeed is never set forth in its naked deformity, lest being thus exposed, it should be at once detected. But it is craftily decked out in an attractive dress, so as, by its outward form, to make it appear to the inexperienced…more true than the truth itself.
Irenaeus
Andrew Murray
« I am crucified with Christ.” Thus the apostle expresses his assurance of his fellowship with Christ in His sufferings and death, and his full participation in all the power and the blessing of that death. And so really did he mean what he said, and know that he was now indeed dead, that he adds: “It is no longer I that live, but Christ that liveth in me.” How blessed must be the experience of such a union with the Lord Jesus! To be able to look upon His death as mine, just as really as it was His—upon His perfect obedience to God, His victory over sin, and complete deliverance from its power, as mine; and to realize that the power of that death does by faith work daily with a divine energy in mortifying the flesh, and renewing the whole life into the perfect conformity to the resurrection life of Jesus! Abiding in Jesus, the Crucified One, is the secret of the growth of that new life which is ever begotten of the death of nature. »

Hannah Whitall Smith
Better and sweeter than health or friends or money or fame or ease or prosperity is the adorable will of our God. It gilds the darkest hours with a divine halo and sheds brightest sunshine on the gloomiest paths. He always reigns who has made it His kingdom, and nothing can go amiss to Him. Surely, then, it is only a glorious privilege that is opening before you when I tell you that the first step you must take in order to enter into the life hid with Christ in God is that of entire consecration. I beg of you not to look at it as a hard and stern demand. You must do it gladly, thankfully, enthusiastically. You must go in on what I call the privilege side of consecration; and I can assure you, from the universal testimony of all who have tried it, that you will find it the happiest place you have ever entered yet.

Priscilla Shirer
Fear is one of Satan’s primary schemes for crippling God’s people. I’m not talking about legitimate concern. I’m not talking about the protective warnings of wisdom and godly counsel. I’m talking about fear. Incessant worry. Up-all-night anxiety. Worst-case scenarios becoming the only probabilities you can think about. Fears like these, instead of simply raising our blood pressure, ought to set off some fire alarms. Why am I feeling so paralyzed like this? We clearly know from Scripture that "God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind" (2 Tim. 1:7 NKJV). So whenever you sense a "spirit of fear" invading any particular area of your life, you can know by process of elimination that it’s not coming from God.

William A. Quale
Hours and minutes are man’s invention. Weeks and days and nights and the month and the year are God’s inventions. A seventh day for rest, God said; and the week was put in the calendar. One day light and one dark; and the day was created. One advent and exit of the silvery moon; and the month was included in its silvery circuit. The planet’s panting journey around the sun; and the year became a terrestrial and celestial fact. Twelve comings and goings of the moon, with a few days excess thrown in for good measure, as is customary with God; and God’s calendar is an accomplished loveliness.
William A. Quale
Max Lucado
God’s book is written for failures. It is full of folks who were foul-ups and flops but got a second chance. Perfect people? No. Perfect messes? You bet. Yet God used them all. A surprising and welcome discovery of the Bible is this: God uses failures.
Max Lucado
Si nous observons notre vie, nous constaterons que Dieu accorde une bénédiction particulière aux choses que nous lui confions dans la prière. Il permet souvent que les meilleures choses que nous ne lui avons pas confiées soient inefficaces, simplement pour nous rappeler que nous dépendons de lui pour tout. Il est très gracieux et attentionné de la part de Dieu de nous obliger doucement à nous souvenir de Lui. Il voudrait nous tenir si près de Lui que nous ne puissions pas nous éloigner une seule minute de Ses bras qui nous soutiennent entièrement.
A. B. Simpson
If we will watch our lives, we shall find that God meets the things that we commit to Him in prayer with special blessing. He often allows the best things that we have not committed to Him to be ineffectual, simply to remind us of our dependence upon Him for everything. It is very gracious and thoughtful of God to compel us gently to remember Him. He would hold us so close to Himself that we cannot get away for a single minute from His all-sustaining arms.

Il n'y a pas de pire écran pour bloquer l'Esprit que la confiance en notre propre intelligence.
Jean Calvin
There is no worse screen to block out the Spirit than confidence in our own intelligence.
John Calvin
Touchant sa nature humaine, Jésus n'est plus présent avec nous. Touchant sa nature divine, il n'est jamais absent de nous.

Touching His human nature, Jesus is no longer present with us. Touching his Divine nature, He is never absent from us.

Charles H. Spurgeon, An All-Round Ministry, 1900.
Let us aspire to saintliness of spirit and character. I am persuaded that the greatest power we can get over our fellow-men is the power which comes of consecration and holiness.
