성경의 진정한 가치를 상기시켜준 북한 노동자 순교자의 소리가 조선어(북한 방언) 성경을 풍선과 손으로 전달하는 사역이 ‘반북단체의 정치전단’과 다르다는 것을 남한 당국자들에게 납득시키고 있는 중에, 어떤 북한 노동자의 감사편지를 받았다. 그는 북한 정부가 파견한 해외 노동자로 순교자의 소리 사역자에게 조선어 오디오 성경을 받았다. 이 오디오 성경을 듣고 난 뒤, 그는 이런 간증을 편지로 보냈다. “한샘의 소망을 ...

In the midst of our efforts to persuade South Korean authorities that the Chosun (North Korean) Bible we launch by balloon and distribute by hand is not “anti-North Korean propaganda”, we received the following thank-you note from a North Korean laborer. The laborer, after ...

A new outbreak of Coronavirus in Northeast China’s Jilin Province has led authorities there to restrict travel and institute additional control measures.

사도 바울은 디모데후서 2장 9절에서 “하나님의 말씀은 매이지 아니하니라”라고 선언한다. 많은 사람이 하나님의 말씀을 매어두려고 애쓰지만 하나님의 말씀은 언제나 그것을 떨쳐낸다! 오늘날, 전 세계 70여 개 국가에 있는 정부는 말씀을 ‘매어두려고’ 시도하고 있다. 기독교를 노골적으로 금지하는 정부는 별로 없다. 대신 정부는 자신들의 정책과 이념을 지지하는 훌륭한 시민정신을 가진 종교로 기독교를 개조하려고 애쓴다. 정부가 하나님의 말씀을 ...
