Sin has been pardoned at such a price that we cannot henceforth trifle with it.

J.C. Ryle, Commentaire, Matthieu 4.
A religion which did not flatter the rich, the great, and the learned – a religion which offered no license to the carnal inclinations of man’s heart – a religion whose first teachers were poor fishermen, without wealth, rank, or power – a religion could never have turned the world upside down, if it had not been of God.
J.C. Ryle, Commentary, Matthew 4.
Le pardon signifie que l'on vous donne une autre chance de prendre un nouveau départ.
Desmond Tutu
Forgiveness says you are given another chance to make a new beginning.
Desmond Tutu
Eric Liddell.
"Each one of us is in a greater race than any I have run in Paris, and this race ends when God gives out the medals."
Eric Liddell.
Jonathan Leeman
Look for the ones who are poor in spirit; who mourn their sin; who aren’t entitled, always insisting on their own way, but are meek; who are sick to death of sin and all its nonsense and so hunger and thirst for righteousness like it is water. When you find people like that, make sure they know who Jesus is. Make sure Jesus is the one who fills their impoverished spirit, who has forgiven their sins, who receives their life and worship, and whose righteousness they depend upon and pursue. When you find such people, tell them to join!
Jonathan Leeman
Augustin
I was weeping in the most bitter contrition of my heart, when I heard the voice of children from a neighboring house chanting, “Take up and read; take up and read.” I could not remember ever having heard the like, so checking the torrent of my tears, I arose, interpreting it to be no other than a command from God to open the book and read the first chapter I should find. Eagerly then I returned to the place where I had laid the volume of the apostle. I seized, opened, and in silence read that section on which my eyes first fell: “Not in revelry and drunkenness, not in licentiousness and lewdness, not is strife and envy; but put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.” No further would I read, nor did I need to. For instantly at the end of this sentence, it seemed as if a light of serenity infused into my heart and all the darkness of doubt vanished away.
Augustine
En tant qu’historien, je dois admettre que ce prédicateur de Nazareth sans le sou est irrévocablement le centre même de l’Histoire. Jésus-Christ est de loin le personnage le plus dominant de toute l’Histoire.
H. G. Wells - auteur britannique
Thomas Watson
Little sins unrepented of will damn thee as well as greater. Not only great rivers fall into the sea, but little brooks; not only greater sins carry men to hell, but lesser; therefore do not think pardon easy because sin is small.
Thomas Watson
Thomas Adams
Riches and contentedness are like two buckets; while one comes up full the other goes down empty.
Thomas Adams
J'aspire
A un plein consentement.
Je n'ai pas l'intention de m'approprier un mot ou un regard, mais par le livre, et ton livre seul.
GEORGE HERBERT (1593-1633), POÈTE ET PRÉDICATEUR GALLOIS
"DISCIPLINE".
For my heart’s desire Unto thine is bent;
I aspire
To a full consent.
Not a word or look I affect to own, But by book, And thy book alone.
GEORGE HERBERT (1593–1633) WELSH POET AND PREACHER
“DISCIPLINE”
Ray Ortlund
When the early believers converted to Christ, it never occurred to them to fit Him into the margins of their busy lives. They redefined themselves around a new, immovable center. He was not an optional weekend activity, along with the kids’ soccer practices. They put Him and His church and His cause first in their hearts, first in their schedules, first in their budgets, first in their reputations, first in their very lives. They devoted themselves [Ac. 2:42]. [This was] unmistakable evidence that the Holy Spirit was being poured out.

There is no new ministry or means of spiritual warfare. We are called to keep on with what Christians have always been called on to do – believe, proclaim, pray and live the gospel.
Melvin Tinker, Wisdom to Live By, Christian Focus Publications, 1998, p. 181.
Matthew Henry
“It is more to the honor of a Christian by faith to overcome the world, than by monastical vows to retreat from it; more for the honor of Christ to serve him in the city, than to serve him in the cell.”
Matthew Henry
Martin Luther
Faith…unites the soul with Christ, as a bride is united with her bridegroom. From such a marriage, as [the apostle] Paul says, it follows that Christ and the soul become one body, so that they hold all things in common, whether for better or worse. This means that what Christ possesses belongs to the believing soul, and what the soul possesses belongs to Christ. Thus Christ possesses all good things and holiness; these now belong to the soul. The soul possesses lots of vices and sin; these now belong to Christ… Now is not this a happy business? Christ, the rich, noble and holy bridegroom, takes in marriage this poor, contemptible and sinful little prostitute, takes away all her evil and bestows all His goodness upon her! It is no longer possible for sin to overwhelm her, for she is now found in Christ.
Martin Luther
La valeur de l'Évangile n'est pas qu'il nous donne une vie idéale, mais que cette vie a été réellement vécue.
GEORGE TYRELL (1861-1909) THÉOLOGIEN IRLANDAIS
The value of the gospel is not that it gives us ideal life, but that that life was actually lived.
GEORGE TYRELL (1861–1909) IRISH THEOLOGIAN
Si votre désir de la Parole de Dieu est parti, faites ce que vous pouvez : Repentez vous. Dites Lui que vous êtes désolé et triste que votre désir pour Sa Parole Sainte soit mort. Demandez-Lui de vous donner et redonner envie, combien même que vous puissiez à peine rassembler la volonté de demander. Il est Miséricordieux.
John Piper
