"Death was not considered enough punishment for the Christians," wrote John Foxe, "who were subjected to the cruelest treatment possible. Nevertheless, the church continued to grow, deeply rooted in the doctrine of the apostles and watered with the blood of the saints." This classic book recounts the chilling, yet ultimately inspiring, deaths of early Christian martyrs-from the times of the apostles through the sixteenth century. This edition of Foxe's Book of Martyrs, originally published in 1563, is abridged and modernized for ease of reading. A book every Christian should read, it's available in a handsome, keepsake binding for only $9.97.

This classic recounts the chilling, yet ultimately inspiring deaths of early Christian martyrs--from the times of the Apostles through the 16th century.
They were men that triumphantly donned the armor of God--the helmet of salvation, the shield of faith, the sword of God's Word. They faced torture and death in their fight of faith, willing to stand for their beliefs and the Word of God regardless of the price.The faithfulness of such historical figures as John Huss, Martin Luther, William Tyndale, and so many others has given us our rich Christian heritage. The courage and dedication of these men have inspired us to live for Christ today.
