Le Christ n'est pas apprécié du tout s'il n'est pas apprécié au-dessus de tout.
Augustin
Christ is not valued at all unless He is valued above all.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer
The ultimate test of a moral society is the kind of world that it leaves to its children.

George V. Wigram (1805 - 1879), bibliste et théologien anglais.
Soon we shall be up there with Christ. God did not mean us to be happy without Him; but God would first have us to be witnesses for Him down here, to hold out as much light as we can.
George V. Wigram (1805 – 1879), an English biblical scholar and theologian.
Malheureusement, cet état d'esprit s'est infiltré dans de nombreuses églises et certains ministères ont construit leur plate-forme en étiquetant les personnes heureuses comme des hérétiques.
Katherine Walden
Have you ever noticed that the world viciously attacks and slanders those who appear to be 'too happy and too loving', suspecting that their happiness and loving actions are all an act? And yet, the world either leaves the "terminally negative" people much to their own devices or, worse yet, it idolizes such negativity and labels it savvy, wise, and discerning.
Unfortunately, this mindset has infiltrated many churches and some ministries built their platform around labelling the happy ones as heretics.

John Owen
We cannot enjoy peace in this world unless we are ready to yield to the will of God in respect of death. Our times are in His hand, at His sovereign disposal. We must accept that as best.
John Owen
Les moments où je semble être le plus éloigné de Dieu sont les moments où je dois tendre l'oreille vers Lui, car je sais, grâce à ma propre expérience et à celle des personnes dont je lis les récits dans la Bible, que Dieu va parler.
Dieu est dans les belles choses de ce monde, mais d'une manière ou d'une autre, tôt ou tard, nous allons nous rendre compte que la relation la plus profonde avec Dieu se trouve dans les expériences sauvages de la vie.
Pendant les périodes sombres, les moments où nous souffrons ou sommes dans la douleur, Dieu nous parlera et il nous parlera clairement.
Nous devons être à l'écoute.
Jamie Buckingham.
When I find myself in an unusual situation, a situation that is uncomfortable or a situation that the world would call “tough,” I begin to tune my ear for the voice of God.
The times I seem to be farthest from God are the times I need to tune my ear to Him because I know, from my own experience and the experiences of people I read about in the Bible, that God is going to speak.
God is in the lovely and the beautiful things of this world, but somehow, sooner or later, we are going to realize that we will find the deepest relationship with God comes during the wilderness experiences of life.
During the dark times, the times we are hurting or in pain, God will speak to us and He will speak to us clearly.
We need to be listening.
Jamie Buckingham.

All hangs on Himself, whether to sustain faith or to lead forth praise.

Everything science has taught me - and continues to teach me - strengthens my belief in the continuity of our spiritual existence after death. Nothing disappears without a trace.

Truth and love are two of the most powerful things in the world; and when they both go together they cannot easily be withstood.

C.S. Lewis
Now is our chance to choose the right side. God is holding back to give us that chance. It won't last forever. We must take it or leave it.
C.S. Lewis
Augustin
We want to reach the kingdom of God, but we don't want to travel by way of death. And yet there stands Necessity saying: 'This way, please.' Do not hesitate, man, to go this way, when this is the way that God came to you.
Augustine
