Sir, the venerable age of this great man, his merited rank, his superior eloquence, his splendid qualities, his eminent services, the vast space he fills in the eye of mankind; and, more than all the rest, his fall from power, which, like death, canonizes and sanctifies a great character, will not suffer me to censure any part of his conduct.
The instructor carefully led her away from any comparison between her experience and others, and asked her if she were consecrated now. "Oh, yes, just as consecrated as I know how to be!" she replied, weeping. "Well, if you are all consecrated, what does the Lord do for those who are all given up?" "He sanctifies them wholly," she had to say.
What eager snatches at mere words, and bald technics, irrespective of connection, principles of construction, Bible usages, or limitations of meaning by other passages and all to eke out such a sense as sanctifies existing usages, thus making God pander for lust. The words nahal and nahala, inherit and inheritance, by no means necessarily signify articles of property.
That may appear a very simple way of putting the faith that saves and sanctifies, but in all its simplicity it is true, for 'He is faithful who hath promised'. Then comes the all-important necessity of standing to your consecration at all costs.
At least I had confounded Darrell; his enemy, taking my help readily enough, glared on him in most unchristian exultation, and then, turning to me, cried in a species of fierce ecstasy, "Think not that because you are unworthy you shall not serve God. The work sanctifies the instrument, yea, it makes clean that which is foul. Verily, at His hour, God may work through a woman of sin."

My whole soul it is in these wooden pipes, and sorry leathern stops, which shall perish with them whose minds are fixed on such like vanities." "Dear father," said Gerard, "they are for the use of the Church, and surely that sanctifies the pains and labour spent on them?"
You told me to be grand, noble, dignified, and self-respecting in order to obtain from Calyste the feelings that are never subject to the chances and changes of life, esteem, honor, and the consideration which sanctifies a woman in the bosom of her family. "Remember that you are a Grandlieu!" yes, I remember that you told me all that
God hath prepared a golden altar for thee to offer thy prayers and tears upon, coming sinner. A golden altar! It is called a golden altar, to show what worth it is of in God's account; for this golden altar is Jesus Christ this altar sanctifies thy gift, and makes thy sacrifice acceptable.
Exports and imports must both be realised in this sweet commerce, and we enrich ourselves far more by what we give to the Beloved than by what we keep for ourselves. The last, the hardest thing to surrender, is our own wills. To give them up by constraint is slavery that degrades. To give them up because we love is a sacrifice which sanctifies, even in the lowest reaches of daily life.
