David Platt closed out T4G 2016 by reviewing the lives and deaths of martyrs from the Reformation and applying their theology of death and mission to the church today. Putting our pain in perspective, Platt reminded us that “your perspective of earthly embers changes when you remember that you have been saved from an eternal inferno.” Platt continues to call the church to hasten the day of her Lord’s return by continuing to share the gospel with the lost and the unreached.
