Letter from Prison from Pastor Wang Lin
#FreeZion8
#FreedomStartsWithFaith
#释放王林牧师‼️‼️‼️
#释放锡安的牧者‼️‼️‼️
同一道伤痕，显明我们同属于一个身体——王牧
高墙之内，他承受着苦难，却仍在为他人的伤痛流泪。
被囚禁一年多，失去自由，忍受疾病、酷热与孤独，他却没有只看见自己的伤痛。
他看见同在狱中的弟兄，看见那些年老体弱、身患疾病的人，也看见历史长河中无数为信仰付上代价的生命。
他说：
“我所受的伤痕是一道共同的伤痕。”
苦难没有使他的心变得冷漠，反而让他的爱更加深沉；高墙限制了他的自由，却无法禁锢他坚定的信仰与宽广的灵魂。
同一道伤痕，显明我们属于同一个身体。
他身处高墙之内，生命却仍在向外发光。愿这份不被苦难征服的信仰与爱，唤醒更多人，让每一个受苦的生命被看见、被记念、被守护！

A privilege to preach this morning in São Paulo at Igreja Presbiteriana Gileade. Wonderful brothers and sisters! Lord, build your church.
Just finished this. Anyone else read it yet? I figure I’ll do this series, then move to the works by @malcolmguite after.

For friends w/ interest in theological education, do pray for the @GordonConwell committee leading the search for their next President. GC is an institution with rich history and wide influence that bears upon the shape and trajectory of gospel ministry in New England and beyond.
Excited and humbled to see this update from @crossway. My little volume on the mission of God is now in its 3rd printing. Lord, magnify your Son.
If you’ve been looking for an excuse to buy a book that would introduce you to some of the best preaching from the Welsh Awakening, look no further. Looks great too. @UnionPublishing
“These six edited sermons bring Roland‘s fervent, Christ-exalting ministry to life once more. Readers will hear his gospel clarity, feel his pastoral warmth, and-God willing-experience “the Lord come down“ as they read.“
Thanks @TimTennent for your investment in my life!

《思念锡安教案牧者——吴秋雨》
每当想到秋雨，第一个浮现在我脑海里的，就是她的聪明与智慧。她一定是那种人群里前 2% 的出类拔萃之人，因为无论面对什么领域，她似乎都能轻松驾驭——不管是生命科学，还是深奥的神学，这些本就极具挑战的专业，她都能学得通透。
“物以类聚，人以群分”，能够成为秋雨的朋友，身上往往也带着她的影子。9月底，在参加一个机构组织的年会时，我遇到了 Tanya。她和秋雨一样睿智、温暖而友善。我们一起倾心分享，也一同流下眼泪，不仅为了秋雨，也为了其他被囚禁的锡安牧者们同心祷告。
在祷告中，最令我们心碎的，是那 12 位尚未成年的孩子！特别是秋雨那两个才 3 岁多和 2 岁多的幼子。这么小的他们，根本无法理解为什么爸爸妈妈突然不见了。他们贪恋妈妈温暖的怀抱，也想念爸爸将他们高高举起时的欢笑。本该是最需要建立安全感与依恋的年纪，他们却不得不承受被迫分离的伤痛！
我们向全能的主发声祷告，求主尽快无条件释放秋雨以及其他 7 位牧者和同工！愿孩子们能重新投入父母的怀抱，再次听到他们温声细语的教导。
选择基督教信仰，并按照圣经的教导去实践信仰生活，绝非罪过！有关部门的专制独断、任意篡改信仰内涵的行为，是绝不能被接受的！
在“10.9 锡安教案”满一年之际，我深深地想念吴秋雨，也想念每一位仅仅因为坚持按圣经方式实践信仰而失去自由的牧者们！

Nearly one year after the CCP’s crackdown on @CnZion, eight church leaders remain unjustly detained on charges of “fraud” and “illegal business operations” intended to shutter their church and curtail their #religiousfreedom. Pastor #EzraJin is free. The Zion Church 8 should also be freed without conditions. #FreeZionChurch8

What does it mean to be a witness for Christ?
It’s more than sharing a personal experience. As followers of Jesus, we are witnesses, heralds, and ambassadors with good news to proclaim. God has revealed himself in Christ, and we have the privilege of making him known so that others may come to know him.
In this clip, Justin Schell and Alex Kocman unpack why the biblical idea of “witness” is worth recovering—and what it means for evangelism today.
