THE EMMAUS WALK PRESENTS:
"The Persecuted Church Center"
Update: This 2006 alert on Pastor Van Thong of Laos has not been updated, so we do not know if he is out of prison or dead or held in a hostage situation at his home. But his situation certainly continues for many throughout Southeast Asia's tyrannical regimes
Pastor Van Thong is a pastor in Laos (which has one of those Chinese communist clone-governments that is so hostile to Christians and the Gospel), who is uncompromising and fearless. The authorities have imprisoned him for over three months now. But Voice of the Martyrs found him and is able to get letters from Christians to him, to encourage him, which will send a message in turn to the authorities that this man is not forgotten by Christians round the world! If they know that the world is watching them, they will probably release him, just as the Czech communists released David Hathaway, a British evangelist and Bible smuggler who "got too hot to handle" once Christians began praying, writing letters to Britain's Parliament, and petitioning the Czech ambassador! Your letter counts. I have sent mine for a mere 84 cents of postage. It costs so little to make a big difference in a persecuted Christian's life. Simply download the letter they show you how to compose on-line. It can do a wonderful service, now and for eternity.
Please check out the "Back to Jerusalem" faith mission that led Brother Yun, the persecuted Chinese Christian, to faith in Christ.
BACK TO JERUSALEM.COM MINISTRY, FEATURING BROTHER YUN AND BOOK, THE HEAVENLY MAN
A TREMENDOUSLY ENCOURAGING EXAMPLE OF A HUMBLE ROMANIAN MAN AND HIS WIFE WHO COMBATED COMMUNISM OPPRESSION AND GAINED THE VICTORY THROUGH CHRIST, PROVING ORDINARY PEOPLE CAN BE OVERCOMERS OF THE WORST EVIL SYSTEM ON EARTH SECOND ONLY TO GOVERNMENT SUPPORTED GENOCIDE THROUGH UNIVERSAL ABORTION:
Romania, an Eastern European nation located on the Black Sea and the Danube, between Bulgaria and Ukraine, has more than its share of martyrs for Christ, thanks to Communist domination since 1948, when the Romanian ruler, King Karol and his government, were deposed by the Red Army. Billy Graham made a triumphal tour for Christ in 1977 during the brutal reign of the last dictator, before the communist government was overthrown and democracy, to a degree, was instituted. "Walk in the Light, my account of a Romanian Bible smuggler and pastor and family man
who was born in Romania and suffered communist oppression and even imprisonment for his faith in Christ under Romania's last dictator, available here. Pastor Elijah Coroama escaped from Romania through a miraculous deliverance of God, and now has a ministry to the world, while building and running orphanages in Romania for the untold thousands of orphans of the Soviet era:

"Walk in the Light," by Ronald Ginther, Part I, a true account of a miraculous deliverance of a pastor, his wife and family, from anti-Christian Communist tyranny
Note: We say "anti-Christian" in regard to communist states because communism is an aggressive ideology that is secular or godless, but substitutes the political apparatus of a controlling party for God. There can be no two gods in a communist state. So the communist party that controls government and the country must be hostile and actively persecute and eradicate the Christian churches and re-educate or imprison and kill the Christians if they will not give up Christ for the communist state. Westerners and Easterners should recognize this basic fact about communism. It is just not another political party. There are a few others in the world that behave the same toward Christian churches and Christians, but this is the primary political party that always will persecute and attempt to eradicate Christianity and Christians. Hinduism that turns Nationalistic, as in India today, does the same. Buddhism does the same. Islam definitely does the same too. But it can be off and on a persecution program. With communism, it is always a front-burner agenda, you can be sure.--Ed.

"Walk in the Light," Part IV
Note: If you can still vote socialist (socialism as communists know and say so is the soft form of communism, a stage in its consolidation of power to become the HIV-secularist communist state), you have to ignore this account of Ilie Caroama and his wife Aurica, as well as all the untold millions who have suffered similarly under communism. Maybe you do not perceive you are suffering similar constraints under the socialism of Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, and Denmark, and the European Union and Britain, but socialism is a way to take from the working man to give to the one who does not work, and as Margaret Thatcher said, as Prime Minister or before or after, socialism works fine until it runs out of other people's money. I would call that government-sanctioned robbery, theft, stealing. I do believe the Bible and the God of the Bible condemns socialism, for it declares that a man who does not work for his bread is not entitled to bread. If he is disabled, that is another question entirely, of course. Able-bodied men are held accountable, not those who definitely through an accident or severe illness or maybe defects at birth are rendered unable to work and support themselves.--Ed.).
