[228](/en/stories/mm-louis-and-two-others-a-d-1529/#FNanchor_228) Louis belonged to the church of the Waldenses, whose sound faith we have shown elsewhere. See the author cited below, in the same place. [229](/en/stories/mm-john-hut-a-d-1529/#FNanchor_229) This John Hut was also one of the old Waldensian Brethren, See Bapt. Hist. p. 748.

[235](/en/stories/mm-a-number-of-believers-baptized-according-to-the-command-of-christ-having-assembled-to-hear-the-word-of-god-are-put-to-de/#FNanchor_235) Emanuel went forth from his Father’s kingdom into this world. [236](/en/stories/mm-testament-written-by-dirk-pieters-smuel-deceased-in-prison-to-his-wife-when-he-was-preparing-to-die-for-the-name-and-tes/#FNanchor_236) He deems eternal salvation of greater value than temporal necessities. [237](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-of-consolation-and-admonition-written-in-prison-by-dirk-pieters-smuel-deceased-who-was-burnt-alive-at-amsterdam/#FNanchor_237) Having abundance of consolation in his sufferings, he comforts his brethren. [238](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-of-consolation-and-admonition-written-in-prison-by-dirk-pieters-smuel-deceased-who-was-burnt-alive-at-amsterdam/#FNanchor_238) He who has not Christ in him, is poor and miserable. [239](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-of-consolation-and-admonition-written-in-prison-by-dirk-pieters-smuel-deceased-who-was-burnt-alive-at-amsterdam/#FNanchor_239) He loves his brethren according to the soul; hence he admonishes them, to seek their salvation. He that desires the heavenly riches, hates everything which hinders him therein. [240](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-of-consolation-and-admonition-written-in-prison-by-dirk-pieters-smuel-deceased-who-was-burnt-alive-at-amsterdam/#FNanchor_240) He who seeks God in visible things, will not find him. [241](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-of-consolation-and-admonition-written-in-prison-by-dirk-pieters-smuel-deceased-who-was-burnt-alive-at-amsterdam/#FNanchor_241) In God are life and peace; he that desires peace and life, let him enter into him. [242](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-of-consolation-and-admonition-written-in-prison-by-dirk-pieters-smuel-deceased-who-was-burnt-alive-at-amsterdam/#FNanchor_242) Pure love loves a blameless life. [243](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-of-consolation-and-admonition-written-in-prison-by-dirk-pieters-smuel-deceased-who-was-burnt-alive-at-amsterdam/part-2/#FNanchor_243) A person can have a Pharisaical holiness, without the Spirit and righteousness of Christ. [244](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-of-consolation-and-admonition-written-in-prison-by-dirk-pieters-smuel-deceased-who-was-burnt-alive-at-amsterdam/part-2/#FNanchor_244) The nature of God is made manifest in his children, who love him in godly works. [245](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-of-consolation-and-admonition-written-in-prison-by-dirk-pieters-smuel-deceased-who-was-burnt-alive-at-amsterdam/part-2/#FNanchor_245) It is a joy to the godly, when they see men living in accordance with the word of God. [246](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-of-consolation-and-admonition-written-in-prison-by-dirk-pieters-smuel-deceased-who-was-burnt-alive-at-amsterdam/part-2/#FNanchor_246) What great boldness, through the power of God! [247](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-of-consolation-and-admonition-written-in-prison-by-dirk-pieters-smuel-deceased-who-was-burnt-alive-at-amsterdam/part-2/#FNanchor_247) All his delight is in speaking of God, and in strengthening men in that which is good. [248](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-of-consolation-and-admonition-written-in-prison-by-dirk-pieters-smuel-deceased-who-was-burnt-alive-at-amsterdam/part-3/#FNanchor_248) All the pious constantly lament the vain boasting and unbelief of the world. [249](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-of-consolation-and-admonition-written-in-prison-by-dirk-pieters-smuel-deceased-who-was-burnt-alive-at-amsterdam/part-3/#FNanchor_249) He that gives heed to the word of God will gather wisdom. [250](/en/stories/mm-jacob-claess-of-lantsmeer-and-cecilia-jeronymus-his-wife-burnt-in-great-constancy-for-the-testimony-of-jesus-christ-at-a/#FNanchor_250) We have had some doubts as to whether these two persons were not the same ones who, under the names of Jacob and Seli, have been noticed previously, for the year 1542, and whom we allowed to remain there; but as we find some contrary circumstances, we took cause to regard them as not the same, but different persons; hence we have put them here in their proper place. [251](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-from-jerome-segers-to-the-brethren-and-sisters/part-4/#FNanchor_251) The worldly ruler. [252](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-from-jerome-segers-to-his-wife/#FNanchor_252) Calling or sending of ministers. [253](/en/stories/mm-how-lijsken-jeromes-wife-valiantly-fought-and-confessed-the-ground-of-her-faith-before-all-the-people-remaining-steadfas/#FNanchor_253) In Dutch Schaepheaderen, signifying the most menial occupation.—Trans. [254](/en/stories/mm-how-lijsken-jeromes-wife-valiantly-fought-and-confessed-the-ground-of-her-faith-before-all-the-people-remaining-steadfas/#FNanchor_254) Name of a church. [255](/en/stories/mm-willem-the-cabinet-maker-beheaded-in-cleves-windel-rauens-also-put-to-death-there-a-d-1551/#FNanchor_255) This copy was sent to us by some one from the country of Cleves, as a very old relic. [256](/en/stories/mm-several-letters-written-in-prison-by-adrian-corneliss-including-a-prayer-an-admonition-and-a-confession-of-adrian-cornel/part-6/#FNanchor_256) A light sword with a very narrow blade.—Trans. [257](/en/stories/mm-the-lad-cornelis-van-kulenburgh-a-d-1552/#FNanchor_257) As indicated by the brackets, these words are not found in the original, but have been inserted by us, to complete the sense, which has apparently been marred by a typographical, or other, omission.—Trans. [258](/en/stories/mm-brief-extract-from-the-sentence-of-death-of-felistis-daughter-of-jans-or-felistis-resinx/#FNanchor_258) The year 1551 was given. [259](/en/stories/mm-brief-extract-from-the-sentence-of-death-of-felistis-daughter-of-jans-or-felistis-resinx/#FNanchor_259) She was simply called Felistis. [260](/en/stories/mm-elizabeth-and-hadewijk-of-whom-the-former-was-drowned-at-leeuwarden-and-the-latter-escaped-death-in-the-year-of-our-lord/part-2/#FNanchor_260) It is supposed that this was probably Sikke Snijder. [261](/en/stories/mm-digna-pieters-after-enduring-much-affliction-put-into-a-bag-and-drowned-in-puttox-tower-at-dordrecht-for-the-testimony-o/#FNanchor_261) Actum per Campanam, i. e. done through the bell (or striking of the bell). [262](/en/stories/mm-digna-pieters-after-enduring-much-affliction-put-into-a-bag-and-drowned-in-puttox-tower-at-dordrecht-for-the-testimony-o/#FNanchor_262) And to hold pernicious views with regard to baptism, etc., it seems to read here. [263](/en/stories/mm-digna-pieters-after-enduring-much-affliction-put-into-a-bag-and-drowned-in-puttox-tower-at-dordrecht-for-the-testimony-o/#FNanchor_263) Whether it was customary in the city at that time, to read in court sentences of death passed in matters of faith, we have not been able to ascertain. [264](/en/stories/mm-six-brethren-strangled-at-the-stake-in-volewijk-near-amsterdam-a-d-1555/#FNanchor_264) The reader will bear in mind that large portions of Holland are traversed by numerous canals, in place of roads. [265](/en/stories/mm-a-letter-by-willem-droogscheerder-written-in-prison-at-antwerp-where-he-with-five-others-was-put-to-death-for-the-testim/#FNanchor_265) The reader will understand this otherwise obscure assertion, when we state that it is based upon an ingenious application of the Dutch adverb weder, weer, the first part of the word Weerdoopers, (Anabaptists),—which may mean against as well as again. Translator. [266](/en/stories/mm-algerius-a-youth-a-student-of-padua-miserably-burned-for-the-testimony-of-jesus-at-rome-a-d-1557-a-consolatory-letter-fr/#FNanchor_266) In this letter we found so much wisdom, holiness, and excellence, that we have read it innumerable times with attention and deep emotion. It kindled our love to God, and our zeal, not only to live with Christ, but also, if necessary, to die with him and for his holy truth. O that we were worthy, that his holy name might be praised through us unworthy creatures! [267](/en/stories/mm-algerius-a-youth-a-student-of-padua-miserably-burned-for-the-testimony-of-jesus-at-rome-a-d-1557-a-consolatory-letter-fr/#FNanchor_267) The powerful nobility or aristocracy of Venice is meant here. [268](/en/stories/mm-algerius-a-youth-a-student-of-padua-miserably-burned-for-the-testimony-of-jesus-at-rome-a-d-1557-a-consolatory-letter-fr/part-4/#FNanchor_268) Some had given 1555 as the year, but this is an error. [269](/en/stories/mm-how-algerius-was-offered-up/#FNanchor_269) Some old writers did not know that this youth, Algerius, shortly before his death, had, through baptism which he received upon his faith, united with the cross-bearing Church of the Anabaptists; hence they ignorantly ascribed to him another religion. [270](/en/stories/mm-how-algerius-was-offered-up/#FNanchor_270) We are much inclined to the view that this is an error, and that the Capucins are meant.
