“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.” (Romans 8:35-37)
Arabic calligraphy text in Arabic (original):
“من سيفصلنا عن محبة المسيح؟ أشدة أم ضيق أم اضطهاد أم جوع أم عري أم خطر أم سيف. كما هو مكتوب: إننا من أجلك نمات كل النهار. قد حسبنا مثل غنم للذبح. ولكننا في هذه جميعها يعظم انتصارنا بالذي أحبنا.” (رومية 8: 35-37)
