The story is told of a North Korean pastor who was arrested by the communist and brainwashed. When his captors thought they had broken him they issued an ultimatum of a public denial of Christ or death.  The day came for him to deny God and blaspheme the name of His Lord. Feeble from his suffering he mounted the platform while the guards looked on with their weapons aimed at him. He said, I gave you the gospel, taught you to repent of your sin, put your faith in Christ, believe the Bible and to live clean pure lives. The communist have taught me that I was mistaken, the Bible is a book filled with lies and that the right way is to follow Karl Marx and Lenin. I am here today by courtesy of the party to tell you my lessons have been long and hard but I want you to know that this it is all true; that Jesus is the Son of God and He did die for our sins and for my communist guards. With that there was a  thunder of fire arms as his body crumpled  to the floor. (Source Unknown).
