Activity: Would you be willing to risk your life for another person, so that they might be free?
Most people would not. Today we have looked at two individuals who loved others enough to risk
their very lives in order to save them from slavery or death. The Bible says, “No greater love is
there than this, that a man would be willing to lay his life down for a friend.” (John 15:13) Today
we saw that our heroes had the courage to do what is right, even if it might cost them their lives.
Are you willing to die that others may live?

Another question: Are you willing to live a life in such a way, that others may live?
