“I've got you, Agnes," Taylor said, not fazed in the slightest. "You had me, Taylor," Agnes said. "Now you've got Brenda, you poor, doomed sap. And Joey 'The Gent' and Shane after your ass. You better go now. Your flunky is out in his van, and his feet are turning to ice while you wait. At any minute now, he's going to tear up that report and go somewhere far away until the wedding is over." "Nah, he-" "And Shane's coming home any minute." Taylor looked over his shoulder.”

For the realized being this is the Kingdom of Heaven: „The Kingdom of Heaven is within you.“ That Kingdom is here and now. (p. 387)”

“But blessing and protecting someone because they abide by your rules or love you back isn’t agape love. It’s merely insurance protecting our own investments.

And sometimes the cost of love is pain, grief, and heartbreak. Love means laying down our lives:”

“Jesus is saying the defining mark of His Church is that she will move to every place hell attempts to set up camp and when she arrives, the enemy will have no choice but to flee. The work of the Church is the continual eviction of the kingdom of darkness in her city.”
