  Yes, since these men did not stand up for right when they were young, they have   put themselves in the position to have to stand up for right when they are old & tired.  Which is why one should never put off, to another time, the good they are able to bring forth now.
  
  Abraham, Sarah & Moses were all very old but that did not stop God from requiring them to act according to his commands.  All were scared.  Abraham could have died in the dessert &  caused the death of all of his loved ones that followed him.  Sarah could have died in childbirth, Moses could have been killed by his own rebellious people countless times.  
  
  In every age, and by every Christian, faith can only prove itself genuine thru acts of courage.
