Ambrose Bierce
Image
Mankind thinks either too much or too little of sin.
Mary Baker Eddy
Image
So true is it that all sin is ultimately against the Lord so bitter is the root of self.
Alfred Edersheim
Image
Nothing is a sin when you obey the orders of a priest
Alfred de Musset
Image
If God has laid your sins upon the Son of His love, you may rest assured that He will never lay them a second time upon you since, if Christ has borne them and atoned for them to Divine justice, they never again can be found.
Octavius Winslow
Image
You need not fear the greatness or number of your sins.
George Whitefield
Image
[Dawn] is always such a forgiving time. When that first cold, bright streak comes over the water, it's as if all our sins were pardoned as if the sky leaned over the earth and kissed it and gave it absolution.
Willa Cather
Image
It's a long day's drive any way you look at it. With a man who has taken your sins - real and imagined - and stitched them onto the sackcloth of his own soul, it is endless.
Alexandra Fuller
Image
Teach them about anger, the sin that comes with dawning. Teach them about flowers, and the beauty of forgiveness.
Lou Reed
Image
You do not really care for God's mercy or His comfort either, so long as you live in any sin. And it is well that you do not for you can have neither. Your peace will be like a river, when you put away your sin but not one word of true peace, not one drop of true comfort, can you have till then.
Alexander Whyte
Image
Admit sin, and you banish prayer. But, on the other hand, entertain, and encourage, and practice prayer, and sin will sooner or later flee before it.
Alexander Whyte
Image
Sin we have explain'd away Unluckily, the sinners stay.
William Allingham
Image
The starting point of sanctification is the filthiness, corruption, or stain of sin.
William Ames
Image
The difference between an unconverted and a converted man is not that the one has sins and the other has none but that the one takes part with his cherished sins against a dreaded God and the other takes part with a reconciled God against his hated sins.
William Arnot
Image
Real repentance means coming not only to be sorry for the consequences of sin but to hate sin itself.
William Barclay
Image
The tragedy of life and of the world is not that men do not know God the tragedy is that, knowing Him, they still insist on going their own way.
William Barclay
Image
Why did I write? whose sin to me unknown Dipt me in ink, my parents', or my own? As yet a child, nor yet a fool to fame, I lisp'd in numbers, for the numbers came.
Alexander Pope
Image
Forgiving yourself may be for many people, at least for myself, extremely difficult. And then in a larger context, I will say that I'm constantly astonished by those who pray daily, Forgive me my sins as I forgive those who sin against me, and beat very loudly the war drum.
Alexander Payne
Image
The look of love alarms Because 'tis filled with fire But the look of soft deceit Shall win the lover's hire.
William Blake
Image
Put your ear down to the Bible, and hear Him bid you go and pull sinners out of the fire of sin. Put your ear down to the burdened, agonized heart of humanity, and listen to its pitiful wail for help.
William Booth
Image
Whenever we cover our brother's sin, God will cover ours whenever we tell people about our brother's guilt, God will do the same about ours.
Poemen
Image
And hast thou sworn on every slight pretence, Till perjuries are common as bad pence, While thousands, careless of the damning sin, Kiss the book's outside, who ne'er look'd within?
William Cowper
Image
I'm accused of cleverness as if it were a sin. She is merely clever, they say.
Jennifer Stone
Image
Maybe [Sodom and Gomorrah] isn't really about homosexuality, but about rape. If the angels had been female, and the men of Sodom said they wanted to 'know' them against their will, would people claim that the story shows heterosexuality is a sin?
