In 'Clip: Sacrifice for Scripture,' David Green discusses the historical and ongoing sacrifices made by individuals to preserve, translate, and distribute the scriptures. He highlights the extreme risks people have taken, including risking and losing their lives, to ensure the word of God could be shared across countries, particularly in places where it is illegal. Green contrasts these sacrifices with the current tendency to take the availability of scripture for granted in today's society. He criticizes the complacency that allows people to neglect engaging with scripture regularly, despite the freedoms and blessings enjoyed in the present era. The speaker urges a deeper appreciation and commitment to the scripture, reflecting on the efforts previous generations would have made to access it.

People died to copy it. People died to carry it from one country to another. People died to put their lives on the line to translate it. People were willing and are willing to sacrifice their own lives to smuggle it into places where it's illegal. And yet, and I'm guilty of this as much as anybody else.

Week after week, day after day, we take it for granted the freedoms and the blessings that we have in this place and at this present age, how often would generations of men and women have given anything to have gotten their hands on the word of God and how often do we waste away a day, two days, three days, a week, without even picking up the word of God. And that's what we've got, folks.
