John Milton Quotes

Woe to those who die in mortal sin!

Sin brought death, and death will disappear with the disappearance of sin.

According to the Burman system, there is no escape. According to the Christian system, there is. Jesus Christ has died in the place of sinners, has borne their sins; and now those who believe on Him, and become His disciples, are released from the punishment they deserve. At death, they are received into Heaven and are happy forever.

There are but two places where all go after death, white and black, rich and poor; those places are Heaven and Hell. Heaven is a place made for those, who are born again, and who love God, and it is a place where they will be happy for ever.

But the issue is not only life and death but our existence before God and our being judged by him. All of us were sinners before him and worthy of condemnation.

For the believing Christian, death is no big deal….For the nonbeliever, on the other hand, to deprive a man of his life is to end his existence. What a horrible act!

If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

Always remember this. Television, fame, money - listen, here is a news flash for America. Fame cannot remove your sin. And all of the money you ever amass cannot raise you from the dead.

Jesus' death wasn't to free us from dying, but to free us from the fear of death. Jesus came to liberate us so that we could die up front and then live. Jesus Christ wants to take us to places where only dead men and women can go.

For he who has died has been freed from sin...14 For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace.

Apart from the cross, condemnation is normal. Without Jesus, we all deserve to be condemned and punished for sin. But here's the good news: 'There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus'.

Oh Lestat, you deserved everything that's ever happened to you. You better not die. You might actually go to hell.

Death has no sting to a Believer. Once death was the penalty of sin-sin being forgiven, the penalty ceases and Christians do not die, now, as a punishment for their sin, but they die that they may be prepared to live!

The word "salvation" denotes rescue. Rescue? What from? Well, of course, ultimately death. And since it is sin that colludes with the forces of evil and decay, sin leads to death. So we are rescued from sin and death.

The essence of the Hebrew Bible, transmitted by Christianity, is separation: between life and death, nature and God, good and evil, man and woman, and the holy and the profane.

We are separated from God on two sides; the Fall separates us from Him, the Tree of Life separates Him from us.

An angel's arm can't snatch me from the grave; legions of angels can't confine me there.

Death is the operative device that sets us free in Christ - when we die, we truly live.

If nothing else, there's comfort in recognising that no matter how much we fail and sin, death will limit our suffering.

If I do not return to the pulpit this weekend, millions of people will go to hell.

Death is not the end; it is but one more step in a great forward march made possible by the redemption wrought by the Savior. This is the spirit of true science - constant and eternal seeking.

Christianity has made of death a terror which was unknown to the gay calmness of the Pagan.

All right, then, I'll go to hell.

If the Resurrection is resurrection from the dead, all hope and freedom are in spite of death.
