REFUSING Release: Jerome Of Prague S22e54 Heb11:35

Jerome of Prague was scheduled to be burned at the stake in 1460. He was given the opportunity to be released by proclaiming that he no longer held his biblical beliefs. He was tempted and was tortured for 13 months and eventually he succumbed by recanting his beliefs.  They didn't thoroughly believe him and wanted him to recant a second time.  The Spirit must have been strong with him, for at his second opportunity, he "recanted his first recantation." That is, he proclaimed the biblical Christ, knowing that it would mean being burned at the stake. Not only did Jerome refuse release but he did so knowing an unpleasant death awaited.  BTW: he sang all the way on his 1 mile trek to his burning site.  You will be tempted today.  Let's try to do ½ as good as Jerome of Prague.  bewithme.us and Spotify
