Observation of something critically interesting.  

The entire world will give honor to those who have testified for Christ and are no longer here. They called them Saints, martyrs, and all good words.  

But while they are here they are despised. While they are here they are cast out. While they are here they are deprived of friendship. They are considered, in some measure, insane.  

How can they magically become great people when they are no longer with us? Can the world justify this action?

“If you are of no use to us in life, we will make you wondrously useful in death.”
