“TORTURED FOR CHRIST” MOVIE AVAILABLE FOR FREE ONLINE VIEWING FOR PASSION WEEK

Voice of the Martyrs Korea is making its award-winning feature film “Tortured for Christ” available for free online viewing for Passion Week, beginning at 12:00AM Wednesday March 31 and continuing through Easter day April 4, at www.vomkorea.com/tfc/.

“Tortured for Christ” tells the true story of Voice of the Martyrs founder Pastor Richard Wurmbrand, as written in his international bestselling book, ‘Tortured for Christ’. The award-winning movie was filmed entirely in Romania, including inside one of the prisons where Pastor Wurmbrand endured torture and solitary confinement. Two versions are available for free viewing online during Passion Week: A subtitled version and a dubbed version.  

“We believe Passion Week during the Coronavirus may be God’s appointed time for this movie,” says Voice of the Martyrs Korea Representative Dr. Hyun Sook FoleyLast year, when Coronavirus restrictions forced the cancellation of many church gatherings in the weeks leading up to Easter, we arranged to show the movie online for free, and it received more than 25,000 views. This year many church gatherings are still restricted, so we are especially aware of the suffering of Christ and the sacrifices required to follow himThe movie takes place in a prison and shows great suffering. But it shows even more the victory that comes to those who trust in Christ, no matter what. That is the message we need to remember and think deeply about at this time.”   

Representative Foley says temporary Coronavirus restrictions on worship gatherings can serve the positive purpose of reminding Korean Christians that Christians in other countries face permanent bans on gathering. “Christians in more than 70 countries around the world have to worship in hiding in their homes every week, due not to the Coronavirus but to persecution,” says Representative Foley. “Hebrews 13:3 reminds us that we are bound together with them. We hope that the ‘Tortured for Christ’ movie will unite us with them in both suffering and hope this week.”

    두 번 울면서 보았습니다

    그리스도인이란 어떤 자세로

    겸손히 주님을 섬겨야 하는지

    깊이 상고해 보았습니다

      영화를 통해 받은 은혜를 나눠주셔서 감사드립니다. 영화속 이야기가 끝난 이야기가 아닌 현재도 진행중이기에 앞으로도 핍박받는 형제자매들을 향한 지속적인 관심과 기도의 동역 부탁드립니다.
