Would you suffer persecution; poverty; and prison for Christ? Would you endure cruel tortures that take your mind and body to the brink of death and beyond? Would you watch your children suffering for their faith and urge them to remain faithful to Christ? Would you endure inhuman tortures and "hold fast the profession of your faith without wavering" (Hebrews 10:23)? Would you stand boldly and without shame and confess Christ as your Lord; to your own and to your family's peril? Two thousand years of martyrs For nearly two–thousand years; courageous men and women have been tortured and killed because of their confessions of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. The New Foxe's Book of Martyrs tells their stories. Stories of heroic courage and overcoming faith. Stories of love of God and Christ. Stories of the amazing grace of God that enabled men; women; and children to endure persecutions and often horrible deaths. Foxe¿s last revision in 1570 Foxe's last revision of his Book of Martyrs was in 1570. In the 18th century others added to his book. But Christians have continued to be persecuted and martyred every year since then. More Christians were martyred in this century alone than in all the past centuries combined. The New Foxe's Book of Martyrs tells their stories from A.D. 37 to 1997 in modern English; and includes new historical data that clarifies and harmonizes people; places; and times. The New Foxe's Book of Martyrs is the most up–to–date version of Foxe's book ever published. It is essential reading for the study of Christian persecution in Foxe's day and in ours

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Please read this book!By Jeannine BrownThis book is outstanding. This absolutely should be a required read for every elected official at the state and federal level. This book conjures feelings of fear that our country is slipping yet at the same time builds confidence that it can correct itself if we subscribe to the principles developed by the founding fathers (and plainly described in this book). Despite our many problems ; We live in such a great country and this book helps outline why this is so. Happy Independance Day1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
