Suffering But Growing Church
Forgiveness, the great witness
Monday, September 28, 2009
Despite the intimidation Christians face, the church continues to grow. Iranians come to faith in many ways – a TV programme, the internet, being given a New Testament, seeing a dream – but often the greatest witness is something in the character of Christians they meet. This was certainly the case for a lady who inadvertently let her vehicle reverse into the car of a Christian couple who were moving house. This lady’s world was falling apart. Her husband had fallen in love with another woman and wanted a divorce. Before getting into the car she had had a furious row with him. That evening the lady came round to the Christian’s house to pay for the damage she had caused. Sensing their listening ears she poured out her story, and as they listened the Christians forgot about their car and saw her someone whom Christ wanted to embrace. They told her not to worry about the payment, and shared the Good News. That night this lady let Jesus into her broken heart: forgiveness was the greatest witness.
