This is an awesome movie about Richard Wurmbrand and his stint in a Romanian prison for preaching Christ. It is a VERY good movie.

Hey friend, we are probably headed towards this type of paradigm in this country. I don’t think a lot of people can see it coming. The hatred shown for those who believe in God lately makes me think it will be sooner, rather than later.

I used to know a guy who’s father was in prison with Wurmbrandt for the same offense. That of being a Christian.

Richard Wurmbrand’s organization, Voice of the Martyrs, helps persecuted & imprisoned Christians around the world.
It’s worthy of support.
You can get a free magazine filled with stories of VOM’s clandestine activities in tyrannical regimes.

I read about his life story and the scars on his back long ago. He was a very great man.

Thanks brother - may not get to it tonight but thanks for the heads up.

A couple of classics from way, way back - shared them the other day - might as well show them to the ping list - they might want to share them - about 30 minutes long each.

They are a little cheesy at a couple points -

That's for certain. Plus they let anybody up in a pulpit in some places.

Thanks for passing it on. Great movie. Unfortunately, I believe this is coming here to the United States pretty soon. The closing of churches during the lockdowns while allowing abortion clinics to open plus letting prisoners go seems to indicate that.

My pleasure. Cannot remember when I first heard of Wurmbrand. It was certainly 25+ years ago. He understood clearly the battle that the world is in.
