from p282
........
the massacre began in the morning. the first one the amiericans clubbed to death and scalped was abraham, an old mohican brother who had believed in christ for many years. then followed the five ministers, jonas, christian, johann martin, samuel and tobias; seven married men..... the young men..... and the little boys: christian, josef, markus, jonathan, christian gottlieb, timotheus, anton, jonas, gottlieb, benjamin and hans thomas.....
dying with christian names, dying like christ rather than take sides in the ... war... the indian believers of gnadenhutten did not resist their murderers....
...
...the christian women died, like the men, without resisting the americans. one after another..... ... ... there were eleven little girls [also]...
..
"they did not resist" is repeated of believers throughout history.....
and
today. (in the usa, it is repeated)
..
.
sometimes, they fled/flee and survived/survive, (or refused a lie, and lived),
but they continued when they survived
in peace...
and they would not accept a lie, even if their countrymen or others did.
