Sin Quotes
-
Take away the motive, and you take away the sin.
Miguel de Cervantes
-
The myth that “emotions are bad” puts the blame in the wrong place. Emotions aren’t inherently bad or unruly, but sin has devastated our emotions.
Carolyn Mahaney
-
It is not sin that kills the soul, but impenitence.
Joseph Hall
-
Tis no sin for a man to labor in his vocation.
William Shakespeare
-
To despair over one's sins indicates that sin has become or wants to be internally consistent. It wants nothing to do with the good, does not want to be so weak as to listen occasionally to other talk. No, it insists on listening only to itself, on having dealings only with itself; it closes itself up within itself, indeed, locks itself inside one more inclosure, and protects itself against every attack or pursuit by the good by despairing over sin.
Soren Kierkegaard
-
I witness that Jesus Christ is the Savior of the world. He suffered and died for our sins and rose the third day. He is resurrected. In a future day, every knee will bow and every tongue confess that He is the Christ. On that day, our concern will not be, 'Do others consider me Christian?' At that time, our eyes will be fixed on Him, and our souls will be riveted on the question, 'What thinks Christ of me?'
Neil L. Andersen
-
It is not enough simply to try to resist evil or empty our lives of sin. We must also fill our lives with righteousness.
Ezra Taft Benson
-
If anyone feels his sins, let him come at once, straight, direct, not merely to church, or to the sacrament, or to repentance, or to prayer, but to Christ Himself.
J. C. Ryle
-
Where do any of the ancient sources speak of a divine man who was crucified as an atonement for sin? So far as I know, there are no parallels to this central Christian claim.
Bart Ehrman
-
When you see a condemned man on his way to the gallows, it moves you to pity. If you could do something to free him, you would do it. Well, brothers and sisters, when I see a person in mortal sin, I see someone drawing nearer with every step to the gallows of hell. And seeing him in this unhappy state, I happen to know the way to free him: that he be converted to God, ask God's pardon, and make a good confession. Woe betide me if he does not.
Anthony Mary Claret
-
If there is such a thing as sin in this world, I think it must be shutting oneself up against hope.
Gail Godwin
-
Blood sin and desecration of the race are the original sin in this world and the end of a humanity which surrenders to it.
Adolf Hitler
