And I took hold of the brothers and I said, you never should forget that we are, as we are following Jesus, we are following him on the road of the staples and on the difficulties and a lot of challenges. And as we were praising the Lord in this toilet, suddenly the policeman had sent the most mean among the criminals, a gangster, to come and look what is, why are we staying so long in the bathroom. And he became so upset and he said, I'm going to go back to the authorities and immediately report and they will, they will bring handcuffs and they will punish you because you do, you are becoming a contra-revolutionary. And he thought that, and he said that you are doing something which has to do with some sect or some cult. And I said to this man, in the name of Jesus, you stop right now. And I said to my, my Lord Jesus, he was born in the staples and he has all authority in heaven and earth. He is risen Lord. And I, I walked towards this man and I said, brother, you need Jesus. You need Jesus to change and forgive your life. You just kneel down by our side. And I, he didn't know what to do. I just commanded him, kneel down with us. And this man, he didn't know what to do. It was very dirty around the place, but he also kneeled by our side. And as I continued my prayer, the tears were running from my eyes. And this man's life was totally changed. He became your most precious friend and partner for ministry for me. I am not ashamed of the gospel because it's the power of God for salvation of everyone who believes. The gospel of Jesus is powerful enough to save anyone. It doesn't matter how heavy criminals they are, how mean they are, how bad they are. The gospel has power to set them free. And we continue our ministry from that day on with boldness, leading people to the Lord. And even one Catholic brother, a father who was also in the same prison, he joined us in this gospel outreach. And it was totally forbidden for you to have your personal Bible in the prison. But my family members, they knew that I love the word of God and I desire to have a Bible. And they used many different ways to bring the word of God to me. They baked bread and they just hide the Bible inside the bread and then they brought the bread to me. And secretly after all the other criminals had gone to sleep, we tried to find a little light somewhere so that we could secretly read the word of God. And the testimony of this man who was saved in the toilet became so powerful because everybody was asking what a transformation in his life. And he made it possible for me during the midday siesta, the resting time, that I could go under the guilt in my bed and there I was secretly reading the Bible. And one day it so happened that there was a special security check during the rest hour and they located this brother who was reading my Bible under his bed. ======================================================================== Video: https://sermonindex2.b-cdn.net/W_2Ycs-sfK4.mp4 Source: https://sermonindex.net/speakers/brother-yun/not-ashamed-of-the-gospel-part-2/ ========================================================================
