Die, v.: To stop sinning suddenly.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Sin brought death, and death will disappear with the disappearance of sin.
To die is but to leave off dying and do the thing once for all.
I would rather die than do something which I know to be a sin, or to be against God's will.
The joy of life consists in the exercise of one's energies, continual growth, constant change, the enjoyment of every new experience. To stop means simply to die. The eternal mistake of mankind is to set up an attainable ideal.
Temptation coaxes us toward sin, and sin leads to sickness and death, and ultimately confinement in the realm of the evil one.
Such sins, even if they do not kill all grace in us, do harm, nevertheless; and though they are only venial in themselves, they make us apt, ready, and inclined to lose grace and to fall into mortal sin.
Because I could not stop for death, He kindly stopped for me; The carriage held but just ourselves and immortality.
Oh, hour of forgiven sin, moment of perfect pardon, our soul shall never forget you while, within you, life and being find immortality!
If a law commands me to sin I will break it; if it calls me to suffer, I will let it take its course unresistingly.
To sigh, yet not recede; to grieve, yet not repent.
