The Lord challenges us to suffer persecutions and to confess Him. He wants thiose who belong to him to be brave and fearless. He himself shows how weakness of the flesh is overcome by courage of the Spirit....A christian is fearless.

He is a man, who is to be a man; the fruit is always present in the seed.

Prayer is the one thing that can conquer God

If the Tiber rises too high, or the Nile too low, the remedy is always feeding Christians to the lions.

Fear is the foundation of safety.

The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church.

Can we not live without pleasure, who cannot but with pleasure die?
