It must be understood that there are no nominal, halfhearted, lukewarm Christians in Russia or China. The price Christians pay is far too great. The next point to remember is that persecution has always produced a better Christian - a witnessing Christian, a soul-winning Christian.

These people cannot understand how anyone can be a Christian and not want to win every soul they meet. — Richard Wurmbrand
