A TEST OF FAITH
Author Unknown
This is a true story told by one of the first missionaries to enter Russia:
In Russia before the Berlin Wall came down and freedom to worship freely was
against the law, many Christians were forced to get together in secret to
worship the Lord. One group of Christians were gathered together in a simple
house studying the Bible when suddenly the door was thrown open violently and
three Russian soldiers burst in with rifles. One of the soldiers bellowed out
that anyone who wasn't a Christian could leave immediately but anyone who had
come to worship God should stay.
After a moment of silence many of the people filed out of the house leaving a
few people behind. One of the soldiers closed the door behind them and locked
it, then the soldiers all put down the rifles and explained to the remaining few
that they also were Christians but they only wanted to worship with true
believers.
Could you pass such a test of your faith?
