Thank you again Steven Scott.
A wonderful summary of this modern martyrs life.
I am getting a 40 Day Devotional that he wrote prior to his execution by the Nazis.
An amazing man.
He saved many Jews and supported with love his fellow Christians.
We have modern martyrs even today giving their earthly lives in defense of our Savior's Name. They refuse to recant nor change to or back to Islam.
These are the Bride Church members.
I hope all take note of what Jesus says about Jonah and Nineveh.
This sign is happening now.
The blood of the martyrs is the strength of the church.
Thank you again Steven.
I hope all read your biographical answer and delve more into Corrie Ten Boom (another of Stephen Scott's answers) and Dietrich Bonhoeffer's lives.
These are examples of the dedication and overcoming Holy Spirit's strength to speak out against evil and encourage the faith in Our Savior.
Blessings in Him alone!
