Sinful Messiah

Famous quotes containing the words sinful and/or messiah:

    But I am sure, thou dost now come
    Oft to a narrow, homely room,
    Where thou too hast but the least part,
    My God, I mean my sinful heart.
    Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    The Old Testament teems with prophecies of the Messiah, but nowhere is it intimated that that Messiah is to stand as a God to be worshipped. He is to bring peace on earth, to build up the waste places—to comfort the broken-hearted, but nowhere is he spoken of as a deity.
    Olympia Brown (1835–1900)
