Robert Murray McCheyne
As long as the Spirit dwells in my heart, He deadens me to sin, so that, if lawfully called through temptation, I may reckon upon God carrying me through. But when the Spirit leaves me, I am like dry gunpowder.

J.D. Greear, Gaining by Losing, Zondervan, 2015, p. 122.
Our works don’t replace the verbal preaching of the gospel, but in them we demonstrate, tangibly, the love and grace that we proclaim with our mouths. Effective gospel preaching is explaining with our words what we demonstrate with our lives. In our service, we make visible the invisible Christ.
J.D. Greear, Gaining by Losing, Zondervan, 2015, p. 122.
John Owen
If we do not abide in prayer, we will abide in temptation. Let this be one aspect of our daily intercession: "God, preserve my soul, and keep my heart and all its ways so that I will not be entangled." When this is true in our lives, a passing temptation will not overcome us. We will remain free while others lie in bondage.
John Owen
Abraham Wright
In our addresses therefore unto God, let us so look upon him as a just God, as well as a merciful; and not either despair of or presume upon his mercy.

Satan knows that if he can get us to laugh at things we believe we would never do, our defenses will fall.

Matthew Henry
The devil visits idle men with his temptations. God visits industrious men with His favors.

Abraham Wright
We may be sure God will not be hard to be entreated of us, who himself hath appointed us such an intercessor, to whom he can deny nothing; and to that end hath appointed him to sit at his right hand to make intercession for us.

Faith is like insurance. It needs to be wholly in place before there's a crisis.

The thing that God wants from us more than anything else is our dependency on Him.

Even Christians who refuse to indulge personally in sinful sexual activity often watch movies and shows, read books and articles, and visit Internet sites that highlight, display, promote, or make light of sexual immorality. It’s as if we’ve said to the world, “We’re not going to do what you do, but we will gladly entertain ourselves by watching you.” It’s sick, isn’t it, this tendency that brings delight to us when we observe others in sexual sin?

Samuel Rutherford
Howbeit your faith seeth but the black side of Providence, yet it hath a better side, and God shall let you see it. We know that all things work together for good to them that love God; hence I infer that losses, disappointments, ill tongues, loss of friends, houses or country, are God's workmen, set on work to work out good to you, out of everything that befalleth you.
Samuel Rutherford
Henry Drummond
Nothing that happens in the world happens by chance. God is a God of order. Everything is arranged upon definite principles, and never at random. The world, even the religious world, is governed by law. Character is governed by law. Happiness is governed by law. The Christian experiences are governed by law.
Henry Drummond
Dwight L. Moody
The most solemn truth in the gospel is that the only thing Christ left down here is His blood.

Mark Dever, Nine Marks of a Healthy Church, Crossway, 2000, p. 123.
The Christian call to evangelism is a call not simply to persuade people to make decisions but rather to proclaim to them the Good News of salvation in Christ, to call them to repentance, and to give God the glory for regeneration and conversion. We don’t fail in our evangelism if we faithfully present the Gospel and yet the person is not converted; we fail only if we don’t faithfully present the Gospel at all.
Mark Dever, Nine Marks of a Healthy Church, Crossway, 2000, p. 123.
« Ainsi, pour être une question de foi, la résurrection n’est pas pour autant un élément périphérique de la foi, mais le fondement du christianisme. Il faut choisir : ou partager la foi et l’espérance des apôtres, ou partager le doute des incrédules ou des égarés ! »
Brunot Gaudelet, in La revue de théologie de la Faculté Jean Calvin
Charles Spurgeon
I thought I could have leaped from earth to heaven at one spring when I first saw my sins drowned in the Redeemer's blood.
Charles Spurgeon
John MacArthur
If you wrongly judge Christ, He will rightly judge you… All men render a verdict on Christ…and it is a verdict that has massive consequences for eternity.
John MacArthur
C.S. Lewis
Christ, because He was the only Man who never yielded to temptation, is also the only Man who knows to the full what temptation means.
C.S. Lewis
