Faithful Martyrs & Persecution in the Early Church. In this sermon Dr. Dilday provides us with a powerful and moving message of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and Christian martyrdom in the early church, from which all hearers will greatly benefit.
'It is no small condemnation of us to behold what an ardent zeal the holy martyrs had in the past. For as soon as a poor man of that time got so much as a little taste of the true knowledge of God, he did not hesitate to expose himself to the danger involved in confessing his faith. He would have preferred to be burned alive than to go so far as to commit some outward act of idolatry,' wrote John Calvin.

This is best series of messages on the first of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse we have ever heard. It is hard to understand, after hearing these messages by Dr. Dilday, how any other interpretation of the rider on the white horse, of Revelation 6:2, could be correct. This is an amazing series of sermons.
On the Puritan Hard Drive (http://bit.ly/ci3g2z), Dr. Dilday writes, 'The Puritan Hard Drive is a remarkable accomplishment! The common Christian can now have a world-class Presbyterian and Reformed library at his fingertips, for only pennies per volume.' Dr. Dilday's full PHD review is at http://ow.ly/cwToz.
