Galatians 4:29 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now. Do they cast us out of the city? They cannot cast us out of that which is in the heavens. If they who hate us could do this, they would be doing something real against us. So long, however, as they cannot do this, they are but pelting us with drops of water or striking us with the wind. ( Gregory Nazianzen.)
