If we give in to the terrorists we will have more skyjacking, and not merely from the Arabs...Whatever happenes to these hostages-and I could easily have been one of them-if we give in even more people will be taken hostage and more lives will be laid at risk. (Norman Tebbit)

The Saviour and the Comforter, two Persons of the Godhead: the One ever saves from sins, and the Other comforts him who is saved. Their very names are taken from their deeds, and are always actually justified. He comforts! The Holy Spirit comforts the believing soul, as a mother comforts her child. View quote
