The early martyrs and the debt we owe

To choose martyrdom, assuming that you have a choice to go for the crown, must, of course, be unimaginably awful.

Yet our Faith is built upon the martyrs, the men, women and children who have given up all for Christ.

Africa, Saudi Arabia India, China and other countries are in the throes of savage persecutions of those who wish to conduct their Faith according to their belief and conscience.

The time approaches when (in the west) there will, again be Christian martyrs.

This ten minute video gives a most moving panarama of some of our best loved martyrs and the manner that they were put to death.
