Image
God's Kingdom isn't divided into areas of important people and areas of little people. In God's sight, everyone's needful.

Image
Unbelief is actually perverted faith, for it puts its trust, not in the living God but in dying men. The unbeliever denies the selfsufficiency of God and usurps attributes that are not his. This dual sin dishonors God and ultimately destroys the soul of man.
