Holy Spirit/bah%c3%a1%c3%ad Faith

Famous quotes containing the words holy, spirit and/or faith:

    To doubt the end were want of trust in God,
    Who, if he has decreed
    That we must pass a redder sea
    Than that which rang to Miriam’s holy glee,
    Will surely raise at need
    A Moses with his rod!
    Henry Timrod (1828–1867)

    And it seems to me a blasphemy to say that the Holy Spirit is Love. In the Old Testament it is an Eagle: in the New it is a Dove. Christ insists on the Dove: but in His supreme moments He includes the Eagle.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active—not more happy—nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)
