While I would never buy actual #coins from places like Temu, they are good for #religious pieces to add to my collection of #medallions with #bible quotes. Sometimes they are curious when you look closely though. Here is one.

1 Corinthians 16:13 says " Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong." - this piece quotes the second point and the shield is a symbolic image which matches the sentiment.

The other side has Archangel Michael standing over a serpent - straight out of Revelation 12:7-9. Though it references Psalm 46:1 which starts: "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble"... Ok, the Archangel defending us from evil, fair enough.

But the text is "Just for today" which doesn't seem to fit at all... Oh and a Narcotics Anonymous square in circle image? Ok, I did get it from Temu...
