“Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed.” Isaiah 1:17
“The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound.” Isaiah 61:1
“If one part suffers, every part suffers with it.” I Corinthians 12:26
