I Would Be a Coward



"A dog barks when his master is attacked.

I would be a coward

if I saw that God's truth is attacked

and yet

would remain

silent."


-John Calvin

What a wonderful quote. I'm going to memorize it to keep handy next time someone tells me to go down the politically correct road of keeping quiet in the face of criticisms of Christian truth.

Oh the arrow shot through the heart ....would I take it as a personal attack or would I see it as an attack against my God? Or both? "Always" find good encouragement from your blog....taking note to see if I coward away when Truth is attacked"...thanks for the thoughts this morning

Exactly why I'm doing a series right now on the King James Bible and whats wrong with many if not all newer bible versions. Its not an attack on any one personally, but a defense of God's pure words that he promised to preserve!
