She followed the channel so steadily, it was plain to be seen that a wise hand was at her helm; her anchor ran out and she swung on the tide. "The Ajax, as I'm a sinner!" exclaimed a sailor on shore. A boat put off from her, and people angrily collected at the wharf, with talk of getting out their guns, when a boyish figure arose in the stern, and was greeted with a shout of surprise and welcome.
To conclude; let those that would not die Mr. Badman's death, take heed of Mr. Badman's ways; for his ways bring to his end. Wickedness will not deliver him that is given to it; though they should cloak all with a profession of religion. If it was a transgression of old for a man to wear a woman's apparel, surely it is a transgression now for a sinner to wear a Christian profession for a cloak.
Small has been his guerdon for uncomplaining sacrifice of the few hours spared to this weary drudge from his daily toil, small, but gratefully received. And if Beck had been taught to pray, he would have prayed for thee as for a good man, O miserable sinner!
It will pull me together all right, I fancy." And Sanders went whistling on. The world and its cares, the flesh and the devil all dropped lightly on the shoulders of this young sinner, and either rode there or fell to the ground unnoticed. Garrison days were but a merry-go-round with him.
And now for the qualification they were considered under, when this act of reprobation laid hold upon them; to wit, They were considered upright. This is evident, From this consideration, that reprobation is God's act, even the negative of his choosing or electing, and none of the acts of God make any man a sinner.
Mine is a merciful God, who gives rest to animals, trees, and men when they are dead." "Could there be a more obstinate sinner! You will go to hell-fire to the tortures of the damned!" "Show me where the Bible says that God created hell, and I will believe you." "Oh, you pagan! You will be denying the existence of the devil next," cried the priest in a rage.
It is a fearful sin to despise the claims of God the Father, and God the Son. But it is a transcendent sin to resist and beat back, after it has been given, that mysterious, that holy, that immediately Divine influence, by which alone the heart of stone can be made the heart of flesh. For, it indicates something more than the ordinary carelessness of a sinner.
Luther held that justifying faith is essentially the assurance that since Christ lived on earth as a man, labored, suffered, died, and rose again in the place of sinners, the world en masse and every individual sinner are without guilt in the estimation of God. "God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto Himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them." It has been accomplished without him.
TATYÁNA. What's the use of lying, since you've all seen me. I was there. What shall I do now? What can I pardon me, a sinner, for doing you wrong! How other men's wives behave, I don't know; but this is the way in our family. ULYÁNA. Now we'll watch your pride. How will you show yourself among people now, shameless woman? You've disgraced our brother, disgraced him! AFÓNYA. Viper, viper!
O man! thou must go quite back again, thou art out of the way, thou must believe, because thou canst not pray, because thou canst not do; thou must believe, because there is nothing in thee naturally that is good, or desireth after good, or else thou wilt never come to Christ as a sinner; and if so, then Christ will not receive thee; and if so, then thou mayest see that to keep off from Christ because thou canst not do, is to be kept from Christ by the law, and to stand off from Him because thou canst not buy Him.
