“God has created all people spiritually equal. Every person has the same propensity for good and evil. Every peson has the same choice, as to whether to obey God or to defy Him.

Be sure, my brethren, the enemies have no power over the believers, unless as much as is useful to them in their being tested and tempted… When the Lord Jesus urged His martyrs to be patient, He promised them to make their bodies obtain absolute perfection in the future without any loss at all.
