"He that sinneth against Me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate Me love death." -- 8:36."But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." -- 6:22-23.O Sovereign Love, to Thee I cry!Give me Thyself, or else I die!Save me from death; from hell set free!Death, hell, are but the want of Thee.Quickened by Thy imparted flame, Saved when possessed of Thee, I am:My life, my only heaven Thou art; O might I feel Thee in my heart!C. WESLEY.Sin itself is hell, and death, and misery to the soul, as being a departure from goodness and holiness itself; I mean from God, in conjunction with whom the happiness, and blessedness, and heaven of a soul doth consist.Avoid it, therefore, as you would avoid being miserable.SAMUEL SHAW."I could n’t live in peace if I put the shadow of a wilful sin between myself and God."GEORGE ELIOT.Unholy tempers are always unhappy tempers.JOHN WESLEY.
