I walked along that slippery slope where if you fail through lack of faith, you sell your soul to the devil.
There's a slippery slope in regard to authority. If you say that the history in Genesis is not true, then you can just take man's ideas as true. When you go outside of Scripture, why shouldn't you just reinterpret what marriage means? So our emphasis is on the slippery slope regarding authority.
My favorite Scripture is Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." God is our strength; his love, demonstrated through us, can move mountains and change hearts. Being a Christian is actually a competitive edge; provided that you place your faith first above even your professional aspirations. Even if in the past you've compromised and slid partway down that slippery slope, it's still possible to find your way back. If I've learned anything, it's this: to get where you want to go, you first have to become the person God wants you to be.
Virginius Pass, go across the Talus slope and pick up the route through the notch, it is steep, slippery, brutal.
If you sell your soul to the devil, you get more grain.
I walked down the hall and saw that [she] was sitting on the floor next to a chair. This is always a bad sign. It's a slippery slope, and it's best just to sit in chairs, to eat when hungry, to sleep and rise and work. But we have all been there. Chairs are for people, and you're not sure if you are one.
If you are not willing to be a lone wolf, keep your truth to yourself. If you want acceptance and your truths to be spoken, it is a slippery slope.
Most men fail, not through lack of education or agreeable personal qualities, but from lack of dogged determination, from lack of dauntless will.
Celebrities might be experts when it comes to working the red carpet, but relying on them to guide your health and wellness can be a slippery slope.
I know it feels like time is infinite, it's the hubris of youth. Your 40s seem a lifetime away but really they aren't, ask me; I've been down that slippery slope.
When I see a slippery slope, my instinct is to build a terrace.
I think it's a slippery slope to fabricate a different life.
There is no such thing as a lack of faith. We all have plenty of faith, it's just that we have faith in the wrong things. We have faith in what can't be done rather than what can be done. We have faith in lack rather than abundance but there is no lack of faith. Faith is a law.
The separation of church and state can sometimes be frustrating for women and men of deep religious faith. They may be tempted to misuse government in order to impose a value which they cannot persuade others to accept. But once we succumb to that temptation, we step onto a slippery slope where everyone's freedom is at risk.
More men fail through lack of purpose than lack of talent.
I'd sell my soul to the devil if he'd buy such a weakly, puny, piffling little soul, just really to live and be something besides a "thoroughly nice girl" for one short year.
Aggression is the first step on the slippery slope to selfishness and chaos.
