Take Heart: Christian Courage in the Age of Unbelief QUOTES

1 " Remember that everyone you meet is eternal. You have never met someone who will cease to exist one day, and you have never met someone who does not bear God's image. So care about and take an interest in those you run across. "

2 " God fights to free His people. Every plague poured out on Egypt corresponds to an Egyptian god. God actively kills false gods that enslave people. The Egyptians worshipped the Nile, so God turned its waters to blood. They worshipped cattle, so he killed the livestock. They worshipped the god of the crops, so God sent locusts to devour the crops. They worshiped the sun god Ra, so God blacked out the sky and made it pitch black. God literally wiped out the Egyptian gods, exposing them for what they were--not gods at all. "
