[image][img align=left]https://www.vombooks.com/graphics/vom/prods/b_TFC.jpg[/img]Brothers and sisters, if you haven't read this book and you don't have it, you can order a free copy.
My advice is that every christian who have chance should read this book, especially in the days in which we living, knowing the coming persecutions of the saints.

Unfortunately it can be purchased just for U.S. residents. But I think it would not be sin if some brother or sister from U.S. order the book and send it to someone else in other country, if the other requested and don't have chance to have it.

[b][u]EXCERPTS FROM THE BOOK[/u][/b]

"Christianity has become dramatic with us. When Chris­tians in free countries win a soul for Christ, the new believer may become a member of a quietly living church. But when those in captive nations win someone, we know that he may have to go to prison and that his children may become or­phans. The joy of having brought someone to Christ is always mixed with this feeling that there is a price that must be paid. We had met an entirely new type of Christian—the Christian of the Under­ground Church."

'In a letter smuggled out secretly, the Underground Church said, “We don’t pray to be better Christians, but that we may be the only kind of Christians God means us to be: Christlike Chris­tians, that is, Christians who bear willingly the cross for God’s glory.”'

"In the Tirgu-Ocna prison was a very young prisoner named Matchevici. He had been put in prison at the age of eighteen. Because of the tortures, he was very sick with tuberculosis. His family found out somehow that he was in this grave state of health and sent him one hundred bottles of streptomycin, which could make the difference between life and death."

An officer of the prison offered the young man the package if he would betray his fellow prisoners which he refused. He was then made another offer: betray those prisoners who had turned informants, who were now "denouncing" them, the Christians, and he could have the package. Matchevici's reply is qouted as this

“I am a disciple of Christ and He has taught us to love even our enemies. The men who betray us do us much harm but I cannot reward evil with evil. I cannot give information even against them. I pity them. I pray for them. I don’t wish to have any connection with the Communists.”

Pastor Wurmbrand says that this young Christian returned to the cell they were in and that he witnessed him die 'praising God'. As he put it

Love conquered even the natural thirst for life.

A quote from other book:

A communist officer told a Christian while beating him: "I am almighty, as you suppose your God to be. I can kill you."
The Christian answered: "The real power is all on my side, for I can love you while you tortured me to death."

[b][u]MORE QUOTES FROM THE BOOK[/u][/b]

'For example, I was later in prison together with souls whom God had helped me to win for Christ. I was in the same cell with one who had left behind six children and who was now in prison for his Christian faith. His wife and children were starving. He might never see them again. I asked him, “Have you any resentment against me that I brought you to Christ and because of this your fam­­ily is in such misery?” He answered, “I have no words to express my thank­fulness that you have brought me to the wonderful Savior. I would never have it any other way.”'

'In a letter smuggled out secretly, the Underground Church said, “We don’t pray to be better Christians, but that we may be the only kind of Christians God means us to be: Christlike Chris­tians, that is, [b]Christians who bear willingly the cross for God’s glory.[/b]”'
