The devil hates you. He lost you to God and he fiercely wants you back. He wants to see more than anything you fall way from the Lord. He is your “adversary.” He is, 1 Peter 5:8, “a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.” Yet we are promised we can be victorious when we do things God’s way. And doing things God’s way is laying hold of His resources and being “strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might.” And though Satan will try to convince you this is not the case, let’s always keep in mind that He is the “father or lies” (Jn. 8:44).

Charles H. Spurgeon
“This depression comes over me whenever the Lord is preparing a larger blessing for my ministry; the cloud is black before it breaks, and overshadows before it yields its deluge of mercy. Depression has now become to me as a prophet in rough clothing, a John the Baptist, heralding the nearer coming of my Lord's richer benison. So have far better men found it. The scouring of the vessel has fitted it for the Master's use. Immersion in suffering has preceded the baptism of the Holy Ghost. Fasting gives an appetite for the banquet. The Lord is revealed in the backside of the desert, while his servant keepeth the sheep and waits in solitary awe. The wilderness is the way to Canaan. The low valley leads to the towering mountain. Defeat prepares for victory.”
Charles H. Spurgeon

“There is more healing joy in five minutes of worship than there is in five nights of revelry.”

Considérez ceci : Jésus est devenu l'un de nous et a vécu notre vie afin de faire l'expérience de notre mort, afin de pouvoir briser le pouvoir de la mort.
Brian Simmons, Jeremy Bouma, Grace and Hope
Consider this: Jesus became one of us and lived our life in order to experience our death, so that he could break the power of death.

“The day of judgment will be a day when the skeletons come out of the closets! And each of us will be standing there to face the record.”

Buddha never claimed to be God. Moses never claimed to be Jehovah. Mohammed never claimed to be Allah. Yet Jesus Christ claimed to be the true and living God. Buddha simply said, “I am a teacher in search of the truth.” Jesus said, “I am the Truth.” Confucius said, “I never claimed to be holy.” Jesus said, “Who convicts me of sin?” Mohammed said, “Unless God throws his cloak of mercy over me, I have no hope.” Jesus said, “Unless you believe in me, you will die in your sins.”

Charles H. Spurgeon
I bear my testimony that there is no joy to be found in all this world like that of sweet communion with Christ. I would barter all else there is of heaven for that. Indeed, that is heaven. As for the harps of gold and the streets like clear glass and the songs of seraphs and the shouts of the redeemed, one could very well give all these up, counting them as a drop in a bucket, if we might forever live in fellowship and communion with Jesus.
Charles H. Spurgeon
John Piper, Desiring God, 1996, p. 223.
“Suffering clearly is designed by God not only as a way to wean Christians off of self and onto grace, but also as a way to spotlight that grace and make it shine.”
John Piper, Desiring God, 1996, p. 223.
John Wesley
Whether we think of, or speak to, God, whether we act or suffer for Him, all is prayer, when we have no other object than His love, and the desire of pleasing Him.
John Wesley
Jonathan Edwards
The blessedness of Heaven is so glorious that when the saints arrive there they will look back upon their earthly pilgrimage, however wonderful their life in Christ was then, as a veritable Hell. Just as truly, on the other hand, will those who perish in Hell look back on the life in this world, however miserable it may have been, as veritable Heaven.
Jonathan Edwards
Brian Hardin
Giving our hearts to unworthy things can become like drinking from a tainted water source that is corrupt and will make us sick. Our hearts are ground zero for our lives, and we must be intentional vigilant, and wholly devoted, if we want to know and be known by God.
Brian Hardin
Notre Sauveur doit être pleinement homme pour prendre la place des hommes et mourir à leur place, et il doit être pleinement Dieu pour que la valeur de son sacrifice réponde aux exigences de notre Dieu infiniment saint. Il doit être homme, mais un simple homme ne pourrait tout simplement pas effectuer ce paiement infini pour le péché.
Bruce Ware
Our Savior must be fully man in order to take the place of men and die in their stead, and He must be fully God in order for the value of His sacrificial payment to satisfy the demands of our infinitely holy God. Man He must be, but a mere man simply could not make this infinite payment for sin.
Bruce Ware
R.C. Sproul, The Purpose of God, An Exposition of Ephesians, Christian Focus Publications, 1994, p. 114.
If you are of the truth, if you have learned the truth, if you see the sanctity of the truth, then speak truth. We are not called to be deceivers or liars. God is a God of truth, and His people are called to have an enormously high standard of truth.
R.C. Sproul, The Purpose of God, An Exposition of Ephesians, Christian Focus Publications, 1994, p. 114.
George Sweeting
Watch out for any ministry or person who claims to be led by the Holy Spirit but acts contrary to the Word of God. And beware of any movement or group whose focus is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit points not to Himself but to Jesus Christ.

The mark of a saint is not perfection, but consecration. A saint is not a man without faults, but a man who has given himself without reserve to God.

Charles H. Spurgeon
“Depend upon it, your dying hour will be the best hour you have ever known! Your last moment will be your richest moment, better than the day of your birth will be the day of your death. It shall be the beginning of heaven, the rising of a sun that shall go no more down forever!”
Charles H. Spurgeon
Tom Wells, Chrétien : Take Heart !, 1987, p. 61.
[God] is not at a loss when He moves to bring us back to Himself. He can woo or whip. He can draw or drive. He can work rapidly or slowly, as He pleases. In other words, He is free to be God! And in His own way, at His own pace, He brings us back.
Tom Wells, Christian: Take Heart!, 1987, p. 61.
Trop souvent, ce que nous appelons des convictions sont en fait des préférences. Les vraies convictions sont fondées sur la vérité révélée (c'est-à-dire la Bible). Les préférences sont fondées sur le désir personnel. Les convictions sont constantes ; les préférences changent avec le désir. Les convictions exigent la foi ; les préférences reposent sur les émotions du moment.
Paul David Tripp, Age of Opportunity, 1997, p. 131-132,
Too often, what we call convictions are actually preferences. Real convictions are based on revealed truth (that is, Scripture). Preferences are based on personal desire. Convictions are constant; preferences change with desire. Convictions demand faith; preferences rely on the emotions of the moment.
Paul David Tripp, Age of Opportunity, 1997, p. 131-132,
