How firm a foundation ye saints of the Lord; is fixed for your faith
in His excellent WORD! What more can He say,
than to you He has said? To you who for refuge;
to Jesus have fled?
11:32-35“And what more shall I say?
For time would fail me to tell you of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah,
of David and Samuel and the prophets –
who, THROUGH FAITH, conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, received
promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
quenched raging fire, escaped the edge of the sword, won strength out of weakness,
became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight.”
GENESIS 7:23“Every living thing on the face
of the earth was wiped out; men and animals and the
creaturesthat move along the ground
and the birds of the air were wiped from the earth.”
