HEAVEN'S ENOUGH FOR A MARTYR

John Bradford (1510-1555), wrote the following words less than five months before he was burned at the stake for preaching the gospel:

"I am assured that though I want here, I have riches there; though I hunger here, I shall have fullness there; though I faint here, I shall be refreshed there; and though I be accounted here as a dead man, I shall there live in perpetual glory."

(From a sermon by Jimmy Haile, Mountain Top Experience, 12/7/2009)
