Did God not sometimes withhold in mercy what we ask, we should be ruined at our own request.

John MacDuff, The Throne of Grace, Alexander Strahan Publishers, 1865.
Children of God… will you not bear witness, that, through all your trials and troubles, the faithfulness of your Savior’s love has been the “very joy of your hearts?” You have had many crosses and losses – has He ever deserted you? You have been in severe afflictions, and have seen the flowers of many a “sweet hope” wither and decay – did your Friend desert you then? Others may have proved faithless – all other help may have failed you – friendship’s help, promised help, expected help – all, all may have been but as the foam upon the billow, as the footsteps in the sand – but, has Christ ever failed you? Could you, in the darkest and the saddest hour of your grief, say to Him? “Lord, You have promised what You did not perform.” Will you not bear witness concerning the past? – “Not one good thing has failed, of all that the Lord has promised – all has come to pass.”
John MacDuff, The Throne of Grace, Alexander Strahan Publishers, 1865.
Jonathan Edwards, The Glory and Honor of God.
How great an honor will it be to a person to have God at the day of judgment owning a person, declaring before all men, angels and devils that that person is before His all-seeing eyes and that he stands innocent and perfect in His sight, clothed with perfect righteousness and entitled to everlasting glory and blessedness. How honorable will this render them in the eyes of all that vast assembly that will be together at the day of judgment. That will be an infinitely greater honor than any man or any angel declaring that they judge him upright and sincere and that eternal life belongs to him. What can be a greater honor than this — to be owned by the great King and Lord of all things?
Jonathan Edwards, The Glory and Honor of God.
Ajith Fernando, La suprématie du Christ, 1995, p. 216.
Christian patience is an active thing. It conveys the idea of positive endurance rather than quiet acceptance.

Matthew Henry
You have been used to take notice of the sayings of dying men. This is mine: that a life spent in the service of God, and communion with Him, is the most comfortable and pleasant life that anyone can live in this world.

A. W. Pink
The truth of God may well be likened to a narrow path skirted on either side by a dangerous and destructive precipice: in other words, it lies between two gulfs of error.

Thomas Watson
And let me tell you, the more labor you have put forth for the Kingdom of heaven, the more degrees of glory you shall have. As there are degrees of torment in hell, so of glory in heaven (Matthew 23:14). As one star differeth from another in glory, so shall one saint (1 Corinthians 15:41). Though every vessel of mercy shall be full, yet one may hold more than another.
Thomas Watson
Si vous péchez contre un homme ou une femme, vous êtes absolument coupable du mal que vous avez engendré contre cette personne et cela peut même vous conduire à être condamné par des tribunaux civiles. Mais, si vous péchez contre un Dieu saint et éternel, vous êtes définitivement coupable et digne d'un châtiment éternel, un châtiment à la mesure de celui contre qui vous avez péché. Nous devons réaliser que ce qui donne au péché toute sa véritable mesure, c'est la grandeur de celui contre lequel nous péchons."

According to the Bible, our repentance and faith are gifts of God to us; our conversion, our great change, occurs only by God’s grace.

Let them fear death who do not fear sin.

John MacArthur
Error always goes to church because Satan disguises himself as an angel of light, infiltrates the systems of religion, particularly Christianity even true Christianity and plants his seeds of error there and a gullible, witless, uneducated, undiscerning church becomes a victim.

Lord, if You bless me, I’ll thank You; but if You don’t, I’ll be thankful for what I have.

There is abundant evidence that the Bible, though written by men, is not the product of the human mind. By countless multitudes it has always been revered as a communication to us from the Creator of the Universe.

John Piper
Faith begins with a backward look at the cross, but it lives with a forward look at the promises
John Piper
Cela explique pourquoi le Christ ne nous suffit pas toujours. Si je me tiens devant lui comme une coupe attendant d'être remplie de satisfaction psychologique, je ne me sentirai jamais tout à fait plein. Pourquoi ? Premièrement, parce que mes convoitises sont illimitées ; de par leur nature même, elles ne peuvent être comblées. Deuxièmement, parce que Jésus n'a pas l'intention de satisfaire mes désirs égoïstes. Il a plutôt l'intention de briser la coupe du besoin psychologique (les désirs), et non de la remplir.
Edward Welch, When People are Big and God is Small, 1997, p. 149.
This explains why Christ is sometimes not enough for us. If I stand before him as a cup waiting to be filled with psychological satisfaction, I will never feel quite full. Why? First, because my lusts are boundless; by their very nature, they can’t be filled. Second, because Jesus does not intend to satisfy my selfish desires. Instead, he intends to break the cup of psychological need (lusts), not fill it.
Edward Welch, When People are Big and God is Small, 1997, p. 149.
