The Cross: A Battleground
Genesis 3:1-15
Rev. Ho-Ming Tsui
“Be extremely subtle, even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious, even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the opponent’s fate.”
Sun Tzu, The Art of War
“Christians were never meant to be normal. We’ve always been holy troublemakers, agents of dimension that’s incompatible with the status quo; we do not accept the world as it is, but we insist on the world becoming the way that God wants it to be.”
Jacques Ellul
