Hebrews 11:34

Examples Of Faith In Action

³³ Who through faith overcame kingdoms, did righteousness, got their reward, kept the mouths of lions shut, ³⁴ Put out the power of fire, got safely away from the edge of the sword, were made strong when they had been feeble, became full of power in war, and put to flight the armies of the nations. ³⁵ Women had their dead given back to them living; others let themselves be cruelly attacked, having no desire to go free, so that they might have a better life to come;
