You have judged well

Mackenzie upon being asked to choose among his own children who would be sentenced to hell.

"I can't do this.

You must.

I...will...not...do...this!

You must.

I can't. I can't.

I won't! he screamed, and now the words and emotions came tumbling out.

Could I go instead? Please let me go for my children, please, I would be happy to...

Please, I am begging you. Please... Please..."

"Mackenzie, Mackenzie, now you sound like Jesus. You have judged well, Mackenzie.

I am so proud of you."(p. 163)
