Yes, I agree. Moreover, God is the One who ultimately saves both body and soul. Remember the fiery furnace? Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego didn't run from death, but they put their faith in God. Correspondingly God can rescue all those whom He chooses. Are all of the servants of God to move out of the cities and unto a homestead? Is that really God's will?
This is why I say take advice, anybody's advice, including mine, with a grain of salt and a prayer. I don't think J.W.R. would disagree with anything I wrote above...
