on Bible - The LORD is My Shepherd
“The
LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green
pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he
leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I
walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou
art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table
before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my
cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my
life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
[Psalms
23]”

From

Who
will save man?

“Who
shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or
persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36 As it is written:
"For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to
be slaughtered." 37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors
through him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life,
neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers,
39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to
separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

“I
had a professor one time... He said, 'Class, you will forget almost everything
I will teach you in here, so please remember this: that God spoke to Balaam
through his ass, and He has been speaking through asses ever since. So, if God
should choose to speak through you, you need not think too highly of yourself.
And, if on meeting someone, right away you recognize what they are, listen to
them anyway'.”

John Marsden, Tomorrow, When the War Began
“On
the whole, we're a murderous race. According to Genesis, it took as few as four
people to make the planet too crowded to stand, and the first murder was a
fratricide. Genesis says that in a fit of jealous rage, the very first child
born to mortal parents, Cain, snapped and popped the first metaphorical cap in
another human being. The attack was a bloody, brutal, violent, reprehensible
killing. Cain's brother Abel probably never saw it coming. As I opened the door
to my apartment, I was filled with a sense of empathic sympathy and intuitive
understanding. For freaking Cain.”
