More From Anthony Hope

The only idea man can affix to the name of god, is that of a first cause, the cause of all things. and, incomprehensibly difficult as it is for a man to conceive what a first cause is, he arrives at the belief of it, from the tenfold greater difficulty of disbelieving it. it is difficult beyond description to conceive that space can have no end; but it is more difficult to conceive an end. it is difficult beyond the power of man to conceive an eternal duration of what we call time; but it is more impossible to conceive a time when there shall be no time.

Faith stands or falls on the truth that the future with god is more satisfying than the one promised by sin. where this truth is embraced and god is cherished above all, the power of sin is broken. the power of sin is the power of deceit. sin has power through promising a false future. in temptation sin comes to us and says: "the future with god on his narrow way is hard and unhappy, but the way i promise is pleasant and satisfying." the power of sin is in the power of this lie.
Lying Fall Broken
I can readily conceive of a man without hands or feet; and i could conceive of him without a head, if experience had not taught me that by this he thinks, thought then, is the essence of man, and without this we cannot conceive of him.
Men Thinking Hands
I think that the bible teaches that homosexuality is a sin, but the bible also teaches that pride is a sin, jealousy is a sin, and hate is a sin, evil thoughts are a sin. so i don't think that homosexuality should be chosen as the overwhelming sin that we are doing today.

To free a man from suffering, he must be set right, put in health; and the health at the root of man's being, his rightness, is to be free from wrongness, that is, from sin. a man is right when there is no wrong in him. i do not mean set free from the sins he has done: that will follow; i mean the sins he is doing, or is capable of doing; the sins in his being which spoil his nature — the wrongness in him — the evil he consents to; the sin he is, which makes him do the sin he does.
Men Doe Sin
This i know; god cannot sin, because his doing a thing makes it just, and consequently, no sin.... and therefore it is blasphemy to say, god can sin; but to say, that god can so order the world, as a sin may be necessarily caused thereby in a man, i do not see how it is any dishonor to him.

Similar Quotes
I have discovered that you can go from nowhere to somewhere, from nothing to something, from a nobody to a somebody, from an empty person to a fulfilled one, if you have faith in god.
Have Faith Faith In God Empty
Resolved, to examine carefully, and constantly, what that one thing in me is, which causes me in the least to doubt the love of god; and to direct all my forces against it.
Doubt Causes God Love
As we come to know god better, we will also find it easier to know, follow, and accept his will for our life.
