Sinning Quotes

Getting to a higher spiritual level is like increasing your credit score. You get a lot more points for sinning and repenting than if you have no credit history at all Picture Quote #1

Never let a man imagine that he can pursue a good end by evil means, without sinning against his own soul. The evil effect on himself is certain Picture Quote #1

The custom of sinning takes away the sense of it, the course of the world takes away the shame of it Picture Quote #1

There are moods in which one feels the impulse to enter a tacit protest against too gross an appetite for pure aesthetics in this starving and sinning world. One turns half away, musingly, from certain beautiful useless things Picture Quote #1

Sins are indispensable to every society organized on an ecclesiastical basis; they are the only reliable weapons of power; the priest lives upon sins; it is necessary to him that there be sinning Picture Quote #1

Life is a slate where all our sins are written; from time to time we rub the sponge of repentance over it so we can begin sinning again Picture Quote #1

The reason for not going out and sinning all you like is the same as the reason for not going out and putting your nose in a slicing machine: its dumb, stupid, and no fun. Some individual sins may have pleasure still attached to them because of the residual goodness of the realities they are abusing: adultery can indeed be pleasant and tying one on can amuse. But betrayal, jealousy, love grown cold, and the gray dawn of the morning after are nobody’s idea of a good time Picture Quote #1

It seems so much easier in these days to live morally than to live beautifully. Lots of us manage to exist for years without ever sinning against society, but we sin against loveliness every hour of the day Picture Quote #1

If turning from your sins means to stop sinning, then people can only be saved if they stop sinning. And it is unlikely that anyone has ever been saved, since we don’t know anyone who has ever stopped sinning Picture Quote #1

Sincere biblical repentance is as much a work of grace as not sinning in the first place. To err is human, to make progress is divine Picture Quote #1

When you live in holiness, when you really try to stop sinning, you become braver. You become more courageous, you become a man of your word. You become a man of conviction that you’re not willing to sell out and you’re really a true knight in shining armour Picture Quote #1

Any concept of grace that makes us feel more comfortable sinning is not biblical grace. God’s grace never encourages us to live in sin, on the contrary, it empowers us to say no to sin and yes to truth Picture Quote #1

Everyone is sinning, so it’s no longer rebellious to sin. You’re just a conformist if you’re drunk; and naked; driving around in a loud motorcycle; smoking cigarrettes; breaking commandments; getting pregnant out of wedlock. Everyone’s done that. That’s so tired! Picture Quote #1

Fairest and dearest, your wrath and anger are more heavy than I can bear; but learn that I cannot tell what you wish me to say without sinning against my honour too grievously Picture Quote #1

I never drink. I cannot do it, on equal terms with others. It costs them only one day; but me three, the first in sinning, the second in suffering, and the third in repenting Picture Quote #1
