Amen!

Jerome commented that in the early church, when visitors used to come, they were commonly frightened at the amen--it had the sound of thunder, said by people who understood it.
Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting: And let all the people say, Amen. Praise the Lord. (Ps. 106:48)

- Doug Wilson, Mother Kirk, 152
