Keep punching, kicking and biting; When you’re teeth are gone, gum it til glory

Trevin Wax:

Whatever you may think of the old-time evangelist, Billy Sunday, you’ve got to love this quote about fighting sin:

“I’m against sin. I’ll kick it as long as I’ve got a foot, and I’ll fight it as long as I’ve got a fist. I’ll butt it as long as I’ve got a head. I’ll bite it as long as I’ve got a tooth. And when I’m old and fistless and footless and tootheless, I’ll gum it till I go home to Glory and it goes home to perdition!”

  1. I agree – great quote. I am going to have to use it as a sermon illustration. If only we all took sin so seriously. If only I took sin so seriously.
