Derek Prime et Alistair Begg
True enthusiasm comes from being filled with the Spirit, and as we strive to do that to which we know God has called us, in conscious dependence upon Him, we will then be able to convey our excitement to others and carry them with us.
Derek Prime and Alistair Begg
Dieu est spécialisé dans le pardon des échecs. Il n'y a rien que vous ayez fait qui ne puisse être pardonné si vous venez à Dieu en vous repentant. Une fois que vous avez demandé le pardon de Dieu, recevez-le. C'est un don de la grâce que vous ne pouvez pas mériter.
David Jeremiah
God specializes in forgiving failures. There is nothing you have done that cannot be forgiven if you come to God in repentance. Once you have asked for God’s forgiveness, receive it. It is a gift of grace that you cannot earn.
David Jeremiah
Un homme véritablement humble est raisonnablement conscient et sensible de sa distance naturelle de Dieu, de sa dépendance envers Lui, de l'insuffisance de son propre pouvoir et de sa sagesse, et que c'est par le Pouvoir de Dieu qu'il est défendu, confirmé et prévu, qu'il a besoin de Lui ; qu'il a besoin de la Sagesse de Dieu pour le diriger et le guider, comme de Sa Force pour lui permettre de faire ce qu'il devrait faire pour Lui.
Jonathan Edwards
Wayne Grudem
When Jesus commands us to be perfect as our Father in heaven is perfect (Matt. 5:48), this simply shows that God’s own absolute moral purity is the standard toward which we are to aim and the standard for which God holds us accountable. The fact that we are unable to attain that standard does not mean that it will be lowered; rather, it means that we need God’s grace and forgiveness to overcome our remaining sin. Similarly, when Paul commands the Corinthians to make holiness perfect in the fear of the Lord (2 Cor. 7:1), or prays that God would sanctify the Thessalonians wholly (1 Thess. 5:23), he is pointing to the goal that he desires them to reach. He does not imply that any reach it, but only that this is the high moral standard toward which God wants all believers to aspire.

J. C. Ryle
“Holiness is the habit of being of one mind with God, according as we find His mind described in Scripture. It is the habit of agreeing in God's judgment, hating what He hates, loving what He loves, and measuring everything in this world by the standard of His Word.”
J. C. Ryle
Charles H. Spurgeon
“Nothing makes a man so virtuous as belief of the truth. A lying doctrine will soon beget a lying practice. A man cannot have an erroneous belief without by-and-by having an erroneous life. I believe the one thing naturally begets the other.”
Charles H. Spurgeon
Jean Calvin
Whomever the Lord has adopted and deemed worthy of His fellowship ought to prepare themselves for a hard, toilsome, and unquiet life, crammed with very many and various kinds of evil. It is the Heavenly Father’s will thus to exercise them so as to put His own children to a definite test. Beginning with Christ, His first-born, He follows this plan with all His children.
John Calvin
Charles H. Spurgeon
We may expect answers to prayer, and should not be easy without them any more than we should be if we had written a letter to a friend upon important business, and had received no reply.
Charles H. Spurgeon
Charles H. Spurgeon
“When the heart is full of joy, it always allows its joy to escape. It is like the fountain in the marketplace; whenever it is full it runs away in streams, and so soon as it ceases to overflow, you may be quite sure that it has ceased to be full. The only full heart is the overflowing heart.”
Charles H. Spurgeon
George Muller, The Autobiography of George Muller, 1984, p. 219.
Suppose that we believers in the Lord Jesus make our requests to God. Suppose also that, as far as we can honestly judge, the obtaining of our requests would be for our spiritual good and for the honor of God. We must then continue in prayer until the blessing is given to us. Furthermore, we have to believe that God does hear us and will answer our prayers. Frequently we fail in not continuing in prayer until the blessing is obtained and in not expecting the blessing. As assuredly as any individual uses these points, so assuredly will his requests be granted.

Jerry Bridges, Trusting God, 1988, p. 150.
We mistakenly look for tokens of God’s love in happiness. We should instead look for them in His faithful and persistent work to conform us to Christ.
Jerry Bridges, Trusting God, 1988, p. 150.
Leon Morris, Matthew, Eerdmans, 1992, p. 164.
“Christians are not to be hasty in making negative judgments on their fellows. It is a dangerous procedure because it invites a similar judgment in return. And it is a difficult procedure because our own faults make it hard for us to see precisely what is amiss in our fellows. Jesus is not, of course, forbidding all judgments; He is warning against the hasty condemnations that are so easy to make, and so characteristic of the human race.”
Leon Morris, Matthew, Eerdmans, 1992, p. 164.

“Humility is the repentance of pride.”
Nehemiah Rogers
Et faire vibrer un homme
Et former un homme,
Quand Dieu veut façonner un homme
Pour jouer le rôle le plus noble ;
Quand il aspire de tout son coeur
Pour créer un homme si grand et si audacieux
Que le monde entier sera émerveillé,
Observez ses méthodes, observez ses voies !
Comment Il perfectionne impitoyablement
Celui qu'Il élit royalement !
Comment Il le martèle et le blesse,
Et avec des coups puissants le convertit.
Dans des formes d'argile d'essai que
Dieu seul comprend ;
Alors que son cœur torturé pleure
Et qu'il lève des mains suppliantes !
Comme Il plie mais ne rompt jamais
Quand il entreprend son bien ;
Comment Il utilise qui Il veut,
Et dont chaque but le fusionne ;
Par chaque acte l'incite
A essayer sa splendeur -
Dieu sait ce qu'il fait.

John Piper
A Christian is not a person who believes in his head the teachings of the Bible. Satan believes in his head the teachings of the Bible! A Christian is a person who has died with Christ, whose stiff neck has been broken, whose brazen forehead has been shattered, whose stony heart has been crushed, whose pride has been slain, and whose life is now mastered by Jesus Christ. “It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me!”
John Piper
