The Privilege of Preaching: Part II

Richard Wurmbrand continues his story about the "privilege of preaching" from his book, *"Tortured for Christ." Read "Part I" if you have not already.

The following scene happened more times that I can remember. A brother was preaching to the other prisoners when the guards suddenly burst in, surprising him halfway through a phrase. They hauled him down the corridor to their "beating room." After what seemed an endless beating, they brought him back and threw him--bloody and bruised--on the prison floor. Slowly, he picked up his battered body, painfully straightened his clothing and said, "Now, brethren, where did I leave off when I was interrupted? He continued his gospel message!

I have seen beautiful things!
