Let us be on the side of those who sit in jails and are sentenced to death for their faith. Let us pray for them and help them.

The human heart by nature seeks after God. There is a spiritual vacuum in every man until it is filled by Christ.

It was strictly forbidden to preach to other prisoners. It was understood that whoever was caught doing this received a severe beating. A number of us decided to pay the price for the privilege of preaching, so we accepted their [the communists' ] terms. It was a deal; we preached and they beat us. We were happy preaching. They were happy beating us, so everyone was happy.

A flower, if you bruise it under your feet, rewards you by giving you its perfume.

A Communist officer told a Christian he was beating, 'I am almighty, as you suppose your God can be. I can kill you.' The Christian answered, 'The power is all on my side. I can love you while you torture me to death.'

God must be very great to have created a world that leaves a mystery as to whether he created it.

I defy my honored opponents to give me the name of a single man imprisoned in the United States, Great Britain, or West Germany for being an atheist. But in former communist countries, millions of our Christian brothers and sisters in faith have passed through jails or been killed. Who has fought for freedom and obtained it - atheists or Christians?
