  Rezumat:  Ignatius of Antioch passed on to us a large part of his ideas about salvation, martyrdom, and suffering through the epistles which he wrote shortly before being martyred. The author did not articulate very clearly the relationship between salvation and martyrdom, probably because he had little time to do so. Thus, if we correlate some of the expressions he uses such as „to attain unto God” and „now I am perfected” with the act of martyrdom, it would seem that martyrdom is the only way for a Christian to attain unto God and to be perfected. This paper proves that Ignatius does not see martyrdom as a means to achieve salvation, but as the right way for a Christian to leave earthly life in order to be with God for eternity, thanks to the salvation given by Christ.

Keywords: Ignatius, martyrdom, salvation, suffering, attainment, deeds, Christ, perfection, resurrection, reward.
