To the editor:
My hero, Pastor Richard Wurmbrand, Father of the Underground Church and freed from Communist prison hell in 1967, became the founder of Jesus to The Communist World, now The Voice of The Martyrs.
In his book "In God's Underground" he describes an ordeal of torture administered by a communist Lieutenant, that has gradually become too close to reality today in our nation. In his white tiled cell fierce reflections of bright white light from the ceiling combined with steam heat in the boiling summer, handcuffed and laying on floor in a heap of sweat, with a peculiar taste in his mouth from doctored food; for hours on end, through his tortured hazy mind the loudspeakers blared the prophetic future we now see threatening our nation:
"Nobody believes in Christ now. Nobody believes in Christ now. Nobody believes in Christ now. No one goes to church. No one goes to church. Give up! Give up! Give up! Nobody believes in Christ now..."
The communist torture did not break the will of Wurmbrand, but today, this patient gradualism of Marxist evil is having its way. Audrey Hale's (born Alden Hale) journal was released in April this year. Evil intentions to kill were screaming to be acted out:
"I have to kill so: I can be remembered, in the most horrific way possible that no one will ever forget."
On March 27th, 2023, hate for all that is righteous became reality. Armed with 3 semiautomatic firearms including a rifle, she entered the Covenant Presbyterian Church and murdered three adults and three children before the police killed her. Empty minds fall for anything when they believe there is no God. This Nashville school shooter, furiously embraced wokeism. Woke is its own evil religion manifested in an ideology promoting addiction to achieving notoriety no matter what the cost. The Marxist world without Christ doesn't end in the utopia they espouse.
Psychiatrist Miriam Grossman in her in-depth researched book, "Lost in Trans-Nation: A Child Psychologist's Guide Out of The Madness," documents how Transgenderism has been legitimized. Telling of how the powerful World Professional Association for Transgender Health and The American Psychiatric Association, reaffirmed again, "that the last remaining moral absolute that remains is 'tolerance'." The war on liberty to attack the foundation of liberty ever increasingly continues. Financed by the taxpayer challenging 21st century Christians in America with the words: "Nobody believes in Christ now and no one goes to church." Christians and moral Americans today, from all religious persuasions and all ethnic groups, would do well to take the advice of Winston Churchill shortest speech, in 1941, during heavy German bombing at a boys school. He got up with the words: "Never give up! Never give Up! Never give up!" The crowd roared and he sat down. Never give up!
