This is my theory, it might be different to others: Martyrs are people who believe in Christ and they preach to other people about Him, trying to get more believers. But sometimes, that country might kill him/her, because they don't want Christianity in their country, and that death of the martyrs doesn't actually break down the cycle, but makes it even better. So the death of the martyrs changes the Holy Spirit in us so that we gain courage and Christianity gets stronger and stronger. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Martyrs by their deaths and blood justified their love to God. During horrible tortures they didn' t recede their belief. Thanks to the blood of the martyrs, the Church is still alive.
