No living creature, except for a man, is able to take a risk, and even the risk of death, for the sake of
truth. Thousands of martyrs who have lived are a unique phenomenon in the history of our solar system.
~ Aleksandr Menn
Sharp persecution breaks off only the tips of the branches. It produces martyrs and the tree still grows. Never-ending social and political repression, on the other hand, starves the roots; it stifles evangelism and the church declines.
~ Samuel Moffett, in A History of Christianity in Asia
If the Tiber reaches the walls, if the Nile does not rise to the fields, if the sky does not move, or the earth does, if there is famine, if there is plague, the cry is at once, “The Christians to the lions.”
~ Tertullian
He that dies a martyr proves that he was not a knave, but by no means that he was not a fool.
~ Charles Caleb Colton

“Thou God and Father of Thy beloved and blessed Son our Lord Jesus Christ through whom we have received knowledge of Thee, O God of the angels and of all creation and of all just men who live in Thy presence, I thank Thee that Thou hast graciously granted me a portion among Thy people, among the people of Christ. Unto the resurrection of everlasting life may I be received in Thy sight as a fruitful and acceptable sacrifice. Wherefore, for all this I praise Thee, I bless Thee, I glorify Thee through the eternal High Priest, Jesus Christ Thy beloved Son to whom with Thee and the Holy Spirit be all glory, world without end. Amen.”
