Robert Fleming, Scottish Presbyterian minister, reflects on the martyrs of Christianity (and in his age, Protestantism). He claims that the only way persecuted Christian martyrs could respond with tenderness and compassion to their adversaries, is through the divine Spirit of God.
This is a proof of religion to him. God be praised.
How can you respond with tenderness when challenged or persecuted?
