Look through all the pages of history, and put to the noblest men and women this question, “Who loves Christ?”  At once, up from dark dungeons and cruel racks there rises the confessors’ cry, “We love Him!”  And from the fiery stake, where they clap their hands as they were being burned to death, the same answer comes, “We love Him!”  If you could walk through the miles of catacombs at Rome, and if the holy dead, whose dust lies there, could suddenly wake up, they would all shout, “We love Him!”  Happy are they who enlist in such an army as this, which has emblazoned on its banners this grand declaration, “We love Him!”
