Quotes about Sin

Sin is not just action. It's life direction.

God will make right all that is wrong, He will take away the lingering effect of sin and what's not right in our lives. He knows how painful life in this world can be.

Serve God joyfully. Let there be no sadness in your life: the only true sorrow is sin.

Our intentions may be very good, but, because the intelligence is limited, the action may turn out to be a mistake - a mistake, but not necessarily a sin, for sin comes out of a wrong intention.

If the disease is sin, the remedy is found at the Cross.

The church stands no hope of engaging the age of outrage unless we root out the lie that the solution to sin lies anywhere outside of the gospel of Jesus Christ. He is "the true God and eternal life" (1 John 5:20). Salvation is not coming on Air Force One. And Jesus will not come riding on a donkey or an elephant. Those who fail to see such things have been lost to the idolatry of the moment.

Worldly love (licentiousness) seeks to endorse or embrace everything. It begins from the false dichotomy that we either accept without question people's beliefs and behavior (unless it is obviously destructive to someone else) or we are unloving. As a result, we cannot address underlying sin or rebellion. Thus, love is set as opposite to judgment.

The Scripture moveth us, in sundry places, to acknowledge and confess our manifold sins and wickedness.

In Adam's fallWe sinned all.

We acknowledge and bewail our manifold sins and wickedness, Which we, from time to time, most grievously have committed, By thought, word, and deed, Against thy Divine Majesty, Provoking most justly thy wrath and indignation against us. We do earnestly repent, And are heartily sorry for these our misdoings; The remembrance of them is grievous unto us; The burden of them is intolerable.

The wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life.

Hail to you gods…On that day of the great reckoning.Behold me, I have come to you,Without sin, without guilt, without evil,Without a witness against me,Without one whom I have wronged….Rescue me, protect me,Do not accuse me before the great god!I am one pure of mouth, pure of hands.
