The woman they crushed to death for her faith...
In March 1586, Margaret Clitherow, a butcher's wife from York, was sentenced to one of the most horrific deaths permitted under English law.
Her crime was not murder or treason. She had sheltered Catholic priests at a time when Elizabeth I's government was hunting them across England.
When arrested, Margaret refused to enter a plea. She knew that a trial would force her children and servants to testify against her. By remaining silent, she hoped to protect them.
The authorities responded with "peine forte et dure" — pressing.
On the day of her execution, she was laid on the ground with a sharp stone beneath her back. A heavy wooden door was placed over her body. Weights were then piled on top until her chest was crushed.
According to contemporary accounts, she met her sentence with remarkable composure, reportedly saying:
"Thanks be to God. I am not worthy of so good a death as this."
Margaret was thirty years old, a wife and mother who chose silence rather than betray others.
In 1970, she was canonized as one of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales. Her story remains one of the most disturbing examples of religious persecution in Tudor England.

In his will, Freddie Mercury told Mary Austin, “If things had been different, you would have been my wife, and this would have been yours anyway.” She remained the closest person in his life, and to this day, she is the only person who knows the location of his ashes.
Tucker asked why Jesus kept praising outsiders, and Theologian JD Hall turned it into the question Christians still fight over online: who killed Jesus?
Hall’s answer was explosive: Rome carried out the crucifixion, but the Bible repeatedly points to Israel’s leaders as the ones who plotted it, demanded it, and rejected him after seeing the signs.
Then he went even further.
He argued Rome eventually repented and converted, while modern Judaism grew out of the post-Temple Pharisaic tradition after 70 AD.
His final point was the real grenade: being ethnically Jewish does not make anyone right with God.
Like everyone else, Hall says, the answer is repentance and faith in Christ.

@17thletter011 I don't like Mel anymore but I agree with him on this. They are not the Jews from the Bible. All the criminals from Poland and Russia converted to judism and moved to Israel. Hence our problem.
@rabbriansamuel Yes But half the people are fake Jews from Poland and Russia. I'm more Jewish than them all, even you. I can trace My Jewish ancestry back to the 1600 hundreds, it's there for all to see, can you.
The only way to prevent "israel" from dragging the U.S. back into war is for the U.S. to abandon "israel" entirely. Pull all troops, ships, aircraft, etc. and cut all aid, military or otherwise. Then strip section 219 out of the NDAA and section 622 from the intelligence authorization bill. No more special carve-outs, no more joint commands, no more automatic vetoes at the UN, and no more using American blood and treasure as collateral for their criminal bellicosity. End the "unbreakable bond" rhetoric, terminate the memorandums of understanding, and treat them like any other country: zero special privileges, zero blank checks, zero entanglement. America First actually means America only. No more forever wars on behalf of Tel Aviv. Full strategic divorce. Period.
@rabbriansamuel Why are the Jewish people behaving so Evil Nowadays. They're Murdering the innocent Children, Raping Girls and Boys, Spitting on Christians. Beating up Nuns, denying Yeshua. Does that sound like God's Chosen People. It sounds more like the Devil's
God is NOT a God of tolerance. He is a God of PATIENCE.
And those are not the same thing.
But patience has an expiration date.
Since Roe v. Wade, America has ended 66 million lives. That's the entire population of California and Texas combined. And we want to call that a political issue?
When Pharaoh was murdering babies in Egypt, God didn't call it politics. He called it sin. And He showed up.
We are overdue for reformation. We are overdue for revival. The question is whether it comes before the judgment or after it.
