  • The holy days are the best times to focus on real enthusiasm, the inner source that lightens and sanctifies our lives all year.

    Real   Holy Days   Years  
    "How To De-Stress This Holiday Season" by Martha Beck, www.huffingtonpost.com. December 22, 2012.
  • I have come to understand that the self, my self, is inherently sacred. By virtue of its own improbability, its own miracle, its own emergence. And so I lift up my head, and I bear my own witness, with affection and tenderness and respect. And in so doing, I sanctify myself with my own grace.

    Self   Miracle   Grace  
    "The Sacred Depths of Nature". Book by Ursula Goodenough, 1998.
  • Spirit merges with matter to sanctify the universe. Matter transcends to return to spirit. The interchangeability of matter and spirit means the starlit magic of the outermost life of our universe becomes the soul-light magic of the innermost life of our self.

    Mean   Light   Self  
    Dennis Kucinich's Address to the Praxis Peace Institute Conference in Dubrovnik, Croatia, June 9, 2002.
  • Soul of Christ, sanctify me. Body of Christ, save me. Blood of Christ, inebriate me. Water from the side of Christ, wash me. Passion of Christ, strengthen me. O good Jesus, hear me. Within Thy wounds hide me. Permit me not to be separated from Thee. From the wicked foe defend me. At the hour of my death call me. And bid me come to Thee. That with Thy saints I may praise Thee For ever and ever. Amen.

    Jesus   Passion   Blood  
    Saint Ignatius (of Loyola) (1951). “The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius: A New Translation Based on Studies in the Language of the Autograph”
  • Such true worship will stand the test of Christ's great principle, “By their fruits you shall know them”. It sanctifies the Christian's life, and makes them walk with God, lifting them above fear and love of the world. It enables a Christian to show God to other folks. Such worship comes from heaven, and has the mark of God upon it.

  • I ask myself how I could give in to this perpetual vertigo that I in fact provoked and feared. I floated among erratic clouds and talked to myself in front of the mirror in the vain hope of confirming who I was. My delirium was so great that during a student demonstration complete with rocks and bottles, I had to make an enormous effort not to lead it as I held up a sign that would sanctify my truth: I am mad with love.

  • Whom God legally saves, He experimentally saves; whom He justifies, them He also sanctifies. Where the righteousness of Christ is imputed to an individual, a principle of holiness is imparted to him; the former can only be ascertained by the latter. It is impossible to obtain a Scriptural knowledge that the merits of Christ's finished work are reckoned to my account, except by proving that the efficacy of the Holy Spirit's work is evident in my soul.

  • Grace is not looking for good men whom it may approve, for it is not grace but mere justice to approve goodness. [Rather] it is looking for condemned, guilty, speechless and helpless men whom it may save, sanctify and glorify.

    Kindness   Men   Justice  
  • This grace (purity of intention) is so excellent that it sanctifies the most common actions of our life and yet is so necessary that without it, the very best actions of our devotion are imperfect and vicious.

    Grace   Common   Action  
    Jeremy Taylor, Thomas Smart Hughes (1831). “The Works of Jeremy Taylor”, p.53
  • God comes into the very midst of evil and of death, and judges the evil in us and in the world. And by judging us, he cleanses and sanctifies us, comes to us with his grace and love. He makes us happy as only children can be happy.

    "A testament to freedom: the essential writings of Dietrich Bonhoeffer".
  • It's just this: that there are places we all come from-deep-rooty-common places- that makes us who we are. And we disdain them or treat them lightly at our peril. We turn our backs on them at the risk of self-contempt. There is a sense in which we need to go home again-and can go home again. Not to recover home, no. But to sanctify memory.

    Memories   Home   Self  
  • When the Holy Spirit sanctifies believers, he does a complete work in them. He puts into their minds, wills and hearts a gracious, supernatural principle which fills them with a holy desire to live to God. The whole life and being of holiness lies in this. This is the new creation.

    Lying   Heart   Mind  
  • Hold prayer in high esteem. It is the foundation of all the virtues, and the source of all grace needed to sanctify ourselves and to discharge the duties of our employment.

  • Don't say, "That person bothers me." Think: "That person sanctifies me".

  • A good End cannot sanctify evil Means; nor must we ever do Evil, that Good may come of it.

    Mean   Evil   May  
    Benjamin Franklin, William Penn (2012). “Franklin's Way to Wealth and Penn's Maxims”, p.67, Courier Corporation
  • The full impact of printing did not become possible until the adoption of the Bill of Rights in the United States with its guarantee of freedom of the press. A guarantee of freedom of the press in print was intended to further sanctify the printed word and to provide a rigid bulwark for the shelter of vested interests.

    Harold Innis (1999). “The Bias of Communication”, p.56, University of Toronto Press
  • We are in danger of forgetting that we cannot do what God does, and that God will not do what we can do. We cannot save ourselves nor sanctify ourselves, God does that; but God will not give us good habits, He will not give us character, He will not make us walk aright. We have to do all that ourselves.

    Oswald Chambers (2015). “Run Today's Race: A Word from Oswald Chambers for Every Day of the Year”, p.70, Discovery House
  • Each religion, so dear to those whose life it sanctifies, and fulfilling so necessary a function in the society that has adopted it, necessarily contradicts every other religion, and probably contradicts itself.

    Function   Dear   Adopted  
    The Life of Reason vol. 3, ch. 1 (1905)
  • Becoming mature Christians will require the sovereign work of God. Only God can save and sanctify. Still, God uses men and means. Certainly we as parents must seek to bring our children to Jesus Christ for salvation. But salvation is not the end of the journey. It is only the beginning. The destination toward which we are headed with our children is nothing less than maturity in Christ.

  • A good end cannot sanctify evil means; nor must we ever do evil that good may come of it. We are too ready to retaliate, rather than forgive, or gain by love and information. And yet we could hurt no man that we believe loves us. Let us, then, try what love will do: for if men do once see that we love them, we should soon find they would not harm us. Force may subdue, but love gains; and he that forgives first, wins the laurel.

    Love   Peace   Mean  
    "Franklin's Way to Wealth and Penn's Maxims".
  • One murder makes a villain; millions, a hero.

    Hero   Murder   Villain  
    "Fictional character: Henri Verdoux". "Monsieur Verdoux", 1947.
  • Military cemeteries in every corner of the world are silent testimony to the failure of national leaders to sanctify human life.

    Military   Leader   World  
    Yitzhak Rabin (1996). “The Rabin Memoirs”, p.423, Univ of California Press
  • A mother's love, in a degree, sanctifies the most worthless offspring.

  • The man who sanctifies his wife understands that this is his divinely ordained responsibility... Is my wife more like Christ because she is married to me? Or is she like Christ in spite of me? Has she shrunk from His likeness because of me? Do I sanctify her or hold her back? Is she a better woman because she is married to me?

  • Time sanctifies everything; even the most arrant theft in the hands of the robber's grandchildren becomes sacred and inviolable property.

    Will Durant (2011). “Our Oriental Heritage: The Story of Civilization”, p.81, Simon and Schuster
  • It is in some respect greater love in Jesus to sanctify than to justify, for He maketh us most like Himself, in His own essential portraiture and image in sanctifying us.

    Samuel Rutherford (1824). “Joshua redivivus: or, three hundred and fifty two religious letters ... To which is added, the Author's testimony to the covenanted work of reformation, between 1638 and 1649 ... As also, a large preface and postscript ... by the Rev. Mr. McWard. The tenth edition”, p.253
  • Christ will be master of the heart, and sin must be mortified. If your life is unholy, then your heart is unchanged, and you are an unsaved person. The Savior will sanctify His people, renew them, give them a hatred of sin, and a love of holiness. The grace that does not make a man better than others is a worthless counterfeit. Christ saves His people, not IN their sins, but FROM their sins. Without holiness, no man shall see the Lord.

  • True love is that which ennobles the personality, fortifies the heart, and sanctifies the existence.

  • Christian marriage is marked by discipline and self-denial...C hristianity does not therefore depreciate marriage, it sanctifies it.

  • Words sing. They hurt. They teach. They sanctify. They were man's first, immeasurable feat of magic. They liberated us from ignorance and our barbarous past.

    Hurt   Ignorance   Past  
    Leo Calvin Rosten (1964). “The Many Worlds of L*e*o R*o*s*t*e*n: Stories, Humor, Social Commentary, Travelogues, Satire, Memoirs, Profiles, and Sundry Entertainments Never Before Published; with a Special Introd., Background Notes, Revelations and Confessions, All Hand-written and Themselves Worth the Price of Admission”
