"Do not pray for easy lives, but pray to be stronger men. Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers, but pray for power equal to your tasks. Then the accomplishing of your work shall be no miracle, but you shall be a miracle. Every day you shall wonder at yourself and the richness of life which has come to you by the grace of God." The Rt. Rev. Phillips Brooks

"God created us in God’s image, but we turned away from God. God loved us anyway and undertook a rescue mission for us through the people of Israel."

"Stores and malls and retail outlets of all types switched from the terrible choice of music which usually assaults our ears, to what’s called, ‘the music of the season.’ And, once again, in early November, I found myself standing (in disbelief!) at the meat counter trying to decide between chicken and fish for dinner to the strains of 'Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices' from the carol, O Holy Night [...] Stripping Christmas bare (down to the essentials) requires some patience and perseverance. Remove the decorations, the traditions, the assumptions nurtured by popular culture – what is left? Well. among the shepherds and angels…there’s a young woman. Mary. Little more than a girl really. Someone just barely over the threshold of puberty. Mary - who gives birth to a baby [...] 'For a child has been born for us,' says the prophet Isaiah, 'a son is given to us; authority rests upon his shoulders; and he is named Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.'"

When angels sinned, God did not let them go free without punishment. He sent them to hell and put them in caves[a] of darkness where they are being held for judgment. 2 Peter 2:4 (New Century Version)

Remember to welcome strangers, because some who have done this have welcomed angels without knowing it. Hebrews 13:2 (New Century Version)

Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching. Hebrews 10:25 NIV

The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. 1 Timothy 4:1 NIV

Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
