RISK YOUR LIFE TO SAVE IT

Tyrtaeus, an old Greek poet who lived before the time of Christ, wrote, "The man who risks his life in battle has the best chance in saving it; the one who flees to save it is most likely to lose it."

(Walter Bauer, A Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament, 2nd ed., p.95b. From a sermon by C. Philip Green, 4/14/2011)
