¹¹ God is a righteous judge, And a God who has indignation every day. ¹² If a man does not repent, He will sharpen His sword; He has bent His bow and made it ready. ¹³ He has also prepared for Himself deadly weapons; He makes His arrows fiery shafts. (Psalms 7:11-13)

“We are not here to pamper you, or to add just a little more zing to your marriage, or mere chastity to your singleness. We’re here to prepare you to cut off your hand, and gouge out your eye, and, if necessary, be beheaded in the cause of the Supremacy of Christ in this world.”
