Remember our persecuted brethren in prayer

Matthew V. (An outdoorsman) · 04-11-2006, 02:16 PM

I was thinking that we should never forget to pray for our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ. I read The Heavenly Man by Christian Brother Yun and the persecutions they had to go through is just incredible. Beatings, torture, and what they suffer for the Name of Christ can be so hard on them, but they continue to hold fast to the Word of God and our wonderful Saviour. May the Lord's Hand be upon them. Amen.

My thoughts and prayers are with them!

Our Pastor and two church brothers just came back from the Philippines and Viet Nam. They were gone for three weeks on a Christian Mission to those countries. In Viet Nam it is against the law and it is all underground ministry. Everything went well and 11 got saved on the last day!

Hey guys! Haven't been on here in a while!
You know we as Americans a lot of times take for granted the fact that we can openly worship God, go to church, pray at restaurants, walk around with a Bible, etc... When a lot of christians in this world would get killed for even saying Jesus' name in front of somebody. We really are blessed. Being a christian in a Muslim country has to be really tough, I bet you really have to have rock solid faith. It makes you wonder how strong our faith would be living in a place like that.

"It makes you wonder how strong our faith would be living in a place like that.? "Abram

These folks know about a love and faith that go beyond the imagination Abram. These are they whose religion goes far beyond words. May our love and faith one day grow to that same level.
