The place is Oxford, England. The date is October 16, 1555. “Hugh Latimer and Nicholas Ridley stand back-to-back at a common stake, a chain about their waists. As the flames leap up, Latimer’s voice rings out, ‘Be of good comfort. . . . We shall this day light such a candle, by God’s grace, . . . as I trust shall never be put out.’ ”
The candle of courage ignited by these and other defenders of religious liberty still burns today. But we can never forget that “the price of liberty is eternal vigilance.”
