“FAITH Coming unto God, I believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him: I know that my Redeemer liveth; that He is the Christ the Son of the Living God; that He is indeed the Saviour of the world; that He came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief. Through the grace of Jesus Christ we believe that we shall be saved even as our fathers withal. I believe verily to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.” KnowsWorldLifeBelieveFatherJesusBeliefI BelieveChristLordGraceLandSonGoodnessJesus ChristSavedChiefsSinnerOur FatherSaviourRedeemer Book:The Preces Privatae of Lancelot Andrewes Source: The Preces Privatae of Lancelot Andrewes

There are only two types of people: the virtuous who believe themselves to be sinners and the sinners who believe themselves to be virtuous.” PeopleBelieveTwoTypeSinnerVirtuous Author:Blaise Pascal

“Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me." The adage is true as long as you don't really believe the words. But if your whole upbringing, and everything you have ever been told by parents, teachers and priests, has led you to believe, really believe, utterly and completely, that sinners burn in hell (or some other obnoxious article of doctrine such as that a woman is the property of her husband), it is entirely plausible that words could have a more long-lasting and damaging effect than deeds.” IfsBelieveMayLongWholeParentHurtBreakHellTeacherEffectsHusbandStonesPropertySticksDeedsBonesDoctrineSinnerPriestsLastingArticlesAdagesUpbringingHurt MePlausibleObnoxiousLong LastingSticks And Stones Author:Richard Dawkins
