Hebrews 11:23-26

It was by faith that Moses' parents hid him for three months when he was born. They saw that God had given them an unusual child, and they were not afraid to disobey the king's command. (24) It was by faith that Moses, when he grew up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter. (25) He chose to share the oppression of God's people instead of enjoying the fleeting pleasures of sin. Slide3

(Romans 13:1)

But Peter and the apostles replied, "We must obey God rather than any human authority.”

(Acts 5:29)Slide5
