“When you say that [Martin Luther] King was a prophet, you don't say that he predicted anything; you say that he bore witness. He left a committed life so that people would never forget the suffering of people that he was connected to. King was prophetic because he lived a committed life.

Just as little can you stay the consequences of a sin after it has been committed. You may repent of it, you may even be forgiven for it, but still it goes on its deadly and desolating way. It has passed entirely beyond your reach; once done, it cannot be undone.” WayMayLittlesHas BeensStillsDoneLeftSinGoes OnConsequenceDestructionMarkCommittedFlightShellsForgivenRepentUndoneMortar Book:Moses the Law-giver Source: Moses the Law-giver
