Tertullian famously noted that "the blood of the martyrs' was the seedplot of the Church." He spoke of the persecutions of Imperial Rome. One must read Eusebius's Ecclesiastical History or John Foxe's Book of Martyrs. Queen Mary 1 solidified the Reformation amongst the laity by her burnings of 300 English Reformers. We hope the current pressures on this totalitarian regime will prevent this Martyrdom of Rev. Yousef Nadarkhani.
