Sin Quotes
-
While sin is overflowing, grace pours itself forth so exuberantly, that it not only overcomes the flood of sin, but wholly absorbs it.
John Calvin
-
I am a man more sinned against than sinning
William Shakespeare
-
God's righteousness and His unchangeable law make Christianity a stumbling block for many. Organizations and individuals carry a political and moral agenda that aims to remove all obstacles to their sin. Their goal is to 'break God's bands asunder and cast away His cords.' They counsel together to rid themselves of the law of God; anyone who preaches the gospel or stands for righteousness stands in the way of their agenda.
Carmen Domenic Licciardello
-
It is the grace of God, that shows and condemns the sin that humbles us.
Adam Clarke
-
Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Lo-lee-ta: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Lo. Lee. Ta.

Saint Augustine
-
I do not know how to make a man think seriously about sin and judgment, and must look to the work of the Holy Spirit for any hint of such a working.
Jim Elliot
-
Given the sin of impiety through which they the Romans sinned against the divine nature by idolatry, the punishment that led them to sin against their own nature followed.... I say, therefore, that since they changed into lies by idolatry the truth about God, He brought them to ignominious passions, that is, to sins against nature; not that God led them to evil, but only that he abandoned them to evil.
Thomas Aquinas
-
Really to sin you have to be serious about it.
Henrik Ibsen
-
Confession basically means saying the same thing about your sin as God says. So if you say you want to develop integrity, but you're not willing to face the rough parts and confess them, you won't get there.
David Jeremiah
-
It is hard for us to admit we have a sin nature because we live in this system of checks and balances. If we get caught, we will be punished. But that doesn't make us good people; it only makes us subdued. Just think about the Congress and Senate and even the president. The genius of the American system is not freedom; the genius of the American system is checks and balances. Nobody gets all the power. Everybody is watching everybody else. It is as if the founding fathers knew, intrinsically, that the soul of man, unwatched, is perverse.
Donald Miller
-
Sin is blatant mutiny against God, and either sin or God must die in my life.

-
Sin thrives in the dungeon, but slap it on the table for all to see, and it withers rather quickly.
Ted Dekker
