By John Stenen When Russia became a communist nation in 1917, among the many who were tortured, persecuted relentlessly, and murdered were the Christians. I read the story of one young man who was arrested when he was just twenty years old and spent the majority of his life in a Russian prison camp because he was a Christian. When released he said, “I feel like a stone that has been hurled out of hell.” It is hard for us to imagine the horrors so many endured under communist rule. The sad thing is that so many in our nation today believe communism and socialism is the way to go. I wish they would study the communist and socialist rulers who have murdered millions and millions of their own people to keep them in line, and have destroyed all freedoms and privileges of those they rule over; and the people live in constant fear.
