Epistle to the Romans (Short Version)
Chapter 3: Pray Instead That I May Achieve Martyrdom
You have never envied anyone; you have taught others. Now I desire that those things you instruct others to do may be confirmed by your conduct. Only request both inward and outward strength for me, that I may not only speak, but truly will; and that I may not merely be called a Christian, but really be found to be one. For if I am truly found to be a Christian, I may also be called one and be deemed faithful, especially when I am no longer visible to the world. Nothing visible is eternal. "For the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal." For our God, Jesus Christ, now that He is with the Father, is all the more revealed in His glory. Christianity is not merely a thing of silence, but also of manifest greatness.
