BROTHER YUN’S MINISTRY
Brother Yun eventually escaped China and sought asylum in Germany in 2001. Since then, he has been
continuing his ministry from there and has spoken to congregations internationally. He has founded “Back to
Jerusalem” Movement and has been sending missionaries out from China to share the gospel in the least-
reached nations.

Brother Yun’s life and ministry have impacted many lives. Thousands of people have become Christians through
his ministry. It is thus inevitable that fellow Christians have allowed themselves to be used as instruments of
wickedness to attack his reputation. The co-author of The Heavenly Man, Paul Hattaway has aptly put it this
way, “Many of the great Christian leaders throughout history have been the subject of brutal attacks from other
Christians.”

AFTERTHOUGHT
Brother Yun’s childlike faith and his prompt obedience to God’s call are exemplary. It is incredible that he has
remained faithful to God despite the tremendous suffering and persecutions he has gone through.

Here is a man who was tortured for believing in Christ. Yet, his faith remained strong and steadfast.
How would you do if you endured such torture? God showed Himself strong on behalf of Brother Yun.
He will show Himself strong on your behalf!

God Uses the Weak to Fulfill His Great Commission by Brother Yun

We have examined the lives of several men and women throughout the history of the Church Age. Every
one of them demonstrated a faith in Christ and their calling compelled them to service. As a result, they
changed the course of history. Because of their faithfulness, thousands believed and lives were
changed. Many endured great hardships. Some gave their lives that others may believe.
