Salvation Army China
Sunday, October 15, 2006

I am reading the book "Yin the mountain the wind blew here" a story of the Salvation Army movement in China before the communists took over and closed it. I have just got up to the part where Major Yin Hung-shun the last Major of the China Salvation Army has handed over all of the legal documents to the Three self patriotic movement. This was the closing of what had become a major part of the Salvation Army, now keeping in mind that I do have a great respect for Brother Yin who would have faced almost definite death and torture if he had not handed over the Salvation Army imagine with me what would have become of our beloved Salvo's if it had as many other Church's did refused to stop fulfilling the great commission "to spread the gospel." The Salvation Army China would have become and still be an illegal operation funded or scorned by the International headquarters dedicated to spreading justice and God's grace.
