Yes, we did not have it Australia I don't think, but I did hear about it.

A bit like the blue on the hem of garments to remind the Israelites about the law of God. (Num 15:37-39)

One of the cruelest things that someone can do is threaten to kill one of your loved ones for whatever reason, one of which might be not paying a ransom but that is only money. What if it's denying Christ? That's even crueler in my opinion. This is one of those things that I would hope never happens. Especially if the threat to kill another person involves a helpless family member. If a person is that cruel, I would imagine even if you gave into their demands and denied Christ, they would still take your loved one's life and you'd end up living with two dreadful realities. Your loved one's death and your denial of Christ. It's hard to imagine !!!

Thanks Jenni

Yes, absolutely correct, which is what the next post is about also!

You can't bargain with mad people. Which is why Jesus never even answered most of their accusations.

We can fortunately trust God to deliver us, particularly from those that hate us without a cause.
