QUOTE - Kent Hughes
“In today’s culture, the closest social equivalent would be drug pushers and pimps, those who prey on society, who make money off others’ bodies and make a living of stealing from others.”

QUOTE - Augustine (4th Century)
“The Pharisee was not rejoicing so much in his own clean bill of health as in comparing it with the diseases of others. He came to the doctor. It would have been worthwhile to inform him by confession of the things that were wrong with himself instead of keeping his wounds secret and having the nerve to crow about the scars of others. It is not surprising that the tax collector went away cured, since he had not been ashamed of showing where he felt pain.”

QUOTE - Albert Mohler
“When I give my testimony of coming to faith in Christ, I often tell people that I had known even as a young child that I sinned. That was painfully obvious. But what was essential for my salvation was the knowledge of myself not only as one who sinned but as a sinner. In other words, the Holy Spirit brought me to understand that it was not merely the case that I sinned against God, but that in my heart I was a sinner. The problem was not just what I did but who I was. Only then did I know to turn to Christ and seize him, believing in him and repenting of my sins. Only then did I become a Christian.”
