About the same time there was also apprehended
at Kortrijck, for the love of God, and living according
to his word, a brother named Karel van Tiegem,
who was not ashamed freely to confess Christ his
Lord before men, and to make a good confession of
his faith, in which he also persevered unto the end;
but however greatly he was tormented, he would
not implicate others; hence the rulers of this world
seizing occasion against him, as Pilate, instigated by
the priests to remain Caesar’s friend, did against
Christ, condemned him to death, and caused him
to be burnt with fire; wherefore they must expect
the sentence of eternal fire, which shall have no
power over him.
