NK Christians 2

(cont'd from yesterday's post)

World Help has gotten 68,000 Bibles into the hands of North Koreans during the last ten years. "This is not some marketing campaign or program that World Help has dreamed up. This is not our strategy. This is what the leaders of the churches of North Korea are begging for . . ."

Vernon Brewer of World Help says that he met a former soldier in the North Korean military:

"He had worked on the other side of the razor wire fences at the DMZ. His job was to listen in for radio broadcasts at night. While he was tuning in to different frequencies, he found a Christian station broadcasting the gospel into North Korea. He listened night after night until he became a believer.

"He and his family fled towards China. They were shot at by the North Korean military. When they barely made it across the river, there happened to be a group of believers there. These Chinese Christians were having a prayer meeting on the riverbank. They took them in, hid them and discipled them. Later, they made it possible for them to get to South Korea.

Even in the midst of great persecution, vibrant testimonies of transformation are happening."
