Baptism of blood

In Christian theology, baptism of blood (Latin: baptismus sanguinis^[1]^[2]) or baptism by blood, also called martyred baptism,^[3] is a doctrine which holds that a Christian is able to attain through martyrdom the grace of justification normally attained through baptism by water, without needing to receive baptism by water.
