Iniquity Quotes - Page 3

• Though we are commanded to 'wash ourselves', to 'cleanse ourselves from sins', to 'purge ourselves from all our iniquities', yet to imagine that we can do these things by our own efforts is to trample on the cross and grace of Jesus Christ. Whatever God works in us by his grace, he commands us to do as our duty. God works all in us and by us.

  John Owen

• We are always making God our accomplice, that so we may legalize our own iniquities. Every successful massacre is consecrated by a Te Deum, and the clergy have never been wanting in benedictions for any victorious enormity.

• False religion may prevail, iniquity may abound, the love of many may wax cold, the cross of Calvary may be lost sight of, and darkness, like the pall of death, may spread over the world; the whole force of the popular current may be formed to overthrow the people of God; but in the hour of greatest peril the God of Elijah will raise up human instrumentalities to bear a message that will not be silenced.

• In regeneration, the mind is enlightened in the knowledge of spiritual things... The will is renewed... The will is cured of its utter inability to will what is good. While the opening of the prison to them that are bound is proclaimed in the gospel , the Spirit of God comes to the prison-door; opens it; goes to the prisoner, and, by the power of his grace, makes his chains fall off; breaks the bond of iniquity, wherewith he was held in sin so as he could neither will nor do anything truly good; brings him forth into a large place.

• Abajo, en el salón, junto al tercer pilar de la izquierda, se sienta una anciana de rostro dulce, plácido y solterón, y una mente que ha sondeado las profundidades de la iniquidad humana y se lo ha llevado todo como en el trabajo del día....en lo que al crimen se refiere, ella es la mercancía.

• God's justice stands forever against the sinner in utter severity. The vague and tenuous hope that God is 'too kind' to punish the ungodly has become deadly opiate for the consciences of millions. It hushes their fears and allows them to practice all pleasant forms of iniquity while death draws everyday nearer and the command to repent goes unregarded. As responsible moral beings, we dare not so trifle with our eternal future.

• God has nothing to say to the self-righteous. Unless you humble yourself before Him in the dust, and confess before Him your iniquities and sins, the gate of heaven, which is open only for sinners, saved by grace, must be shut against you forever.

• Prayerless souls are Christless souls, Christless souls are Graceless souls and Graceless souls shall soon be damned souls. See your peril, you that neglect altogether the blessed privilege of prayer! You are in the bonds of iniquity, you are in the gall of bitterness. God deliver you, for Hisname's sake!

• Loyalty is a word which has worked vast harm; for it has been made to trick men into being "loyal" to a thousand iniquities, whereas the true loyalty should have been to themselves - in which case there would have ensured a rebellion, and the throwing off of that deceptive yoke.

  Mark Twain

• Whatsoever then you have well in this world, when you recollect to have done any thing good, be very fearful about it, lest the prosperity granted you be your recompense for the same good. And when you behold poor men doing any thing blameably, fear not, seeing that perhaps those whom the remains of the slightest iniquity defiles, the fire of honesty cleanses.

  Papa Gregorio I

• Todos los escritores sobre la ciencia de la política están de acuerdo, y concuerdan con la experiencia, en que todos los gobiernos deben infringir frecuentemente las reglas de la justicia para sostenerse; que la verdad debe ceder el paso al disimulo, la honestidad a la conveniencia, y la humanidad misma al reinado del interés. Todo este misterio de iniquidad se llama razón de Estado.

• En el campamento israelita, aunque había iniquidades, pecados y maldad, Dios no veía ninguno de ellos porque la sangre de los toros y de los machos cabríos, que ofrecían diariamente al Señor, cubría a los hijos de Israel. Cuánto más cierto es eso para nosotros hoy, que somos lavados limpios para siempre por la sangre del Cordero de Dios, Jesucristo, nuestro hermoso Salvador.
