Hans Feierer, with Five Brothers and Three Sisters, in the Year 1528

About this time also Hans Feierer, a minister of the Word, and five of his brothers or fellow believers were condemned and burned for the faith and divine truth, at Munich in Bavaria; there three sisters, wives of three of them, were drowned, and boldly, cheerfully, and gladly gave up their lives, being far more willing to lose this temporal life than to turn away from what God had given them to know. They gave up a miserable life, in due time to find another (Matthew 10, verse 39; Matthew 24, verse 13; Revelation 2, verse 10), with Christ, and with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and all the saints and pious, in the kingdom of God, which is promised to all those who endure to the end.
