"The spiritual legacy of that missionary couple was so great that more than a century after they died, the enemy was still mad about the way they lived. He was still mad someone had come and planted the gospel flag on "his" territory. Still mad that he had lost even one inch of ground, even one heart that would now spend eternity in heaven. 'How dare they!' More than a hundred years after they died, people pointed to the place where their bones were buried and said, 'Those were Christian people." Dear reader, if Satan is till mad one hundred years after you die about the way you lived your life and the witness you were for Christ, that's a mark of high honor, an amazing spiritual legacy! (pages 265-66)"
