Killing Believers

I am warning you now that I am linking you to a long article in World magazine. The article is a about believers in North Korea and their persecution and death in that closed country. I would urge you to read the article and pray that God would move in the country in a powerful way. I also ask you to pray that the United States government would resolve the nuclear situation with Kim Jong Il so the matters of persecution of believers can once again be addressed.

    Have you read about the persecution in Turkey? My aunt and uncle are m’s in Vienna and have been sending out info about some tough stuff happening in Turkey. I haven’t read the long article in your post yet, but man is it a sacrifice for so many others to just believe. We have it SO easy.

    I worked for a ministry called THE VOICE OF THE MARTYRS (VOM) (www.persecution.com) for 7 years prior to moving to Smyrna. We worked with people around the world that are persecuted for their faith. The stories we heard are amazing. If you’ve read The Barbarian Way then you will understand when I say that the persecuted church members are the true barbarians of the Christian faith. It’s humbling to hear their stories of sacrifice. For many, especially believers in North Korea, they are literally choosing death here on earth when they choose to follow Christ.

    If you want to hear more stories from the persecuted church and be given ways to play an active role in helping them you should go to the website for VOM and sign up for their free monthly newsletter. They also have a free quarterly publication for children called Kids of Courage. It’s worth getting this newsletter and reading about what is going on. As a former employee who worked with the production of our publications (books, newsletters, dvd’s, etc.), I can assure you that if you request their free newsletter you won’t be slammed with a bunch of mail asking for money – they don’t do that.
