"The world is a great battlefield. 'I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed, it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel' (Genesis 3:15). Satan has the world bound in strong fetters. The whole world lies in the wicked one - lies in his arms, sung to sleep with his lullaby. But there is a great One gone forth, sitting on a white horse, and having on his head many crowns, and ever and anon he is cutting the strong chains with which sinners are bound, and saying, as he does so, to Satan, 'Is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?'." -Robert Murray McCheyne
