Examples of beseech in a Sentence

1. Dave Chappelle:

   I would beseech the council to look deeply and to look hard, because this is a golden opportunity, literally you could kill the game. In this Trump era, there's an opportunity to show everybody that local politics reigns supreme. We can make our corner of the world outstanding.

2. Ben Lindsey:

3. Roger Stone:

4. Vernon Schutz:

   Defeated enemies in battle have to confess the superiority of their captors, but this does not give them citizenship in that country. This is why as ambassadors for Christ we beseech people to be reconciled to God by faith in Christ now. If they confess Him as Lord with a heart of faith--now, while the doors of salvation are wide open, they will be saved (Rom. 109,10). Later they are forced to confess His Lordship to vindicate Christ's righteous judgment of them and the worthiness of their eternal doom. Confession does not bring the confessor salvation. It is too late, for the 'accepted time' for salvation has forever passed.

5. Oliver Cromwell:

   I beseech you, in the bowels of Christ, think it possible you may be mistaken.
