Come Lord, Come

About the Book

After forty-five years of strict rule, it took nothing less than a miracle for communism in Romania to fall in such a short period of nine days. It was only with the help of the merciful hand of a loving God that this rapid change in the government could take place. Through God's own way and time, political barriers were overcome which allowed the restored gospel of Jesus Christ to be preached in Romania.

As gunshots quieted and people emerged from hiding, Romanians joined their voices in singing a revolutionary chorus: Come Lord, Come. Uncertain about what would come next, the people were too caught up in their newly found freedoms to focus on the distant and uncertain future. Among many new freedoms was the freedom to worship openly. Through faith and prayer, the Romanians turned to their deep tradition of Christianity, and beckoned the Lord back into their country.

Through the desire of the Romanian people to have Christ in their lives once again, the Lord's power has come to a beautiful land. Missionaries have dedicated themselves to the service of their fellowmen and the Lord; and the spirit of forgiving, healing, and hope has entered Romanians' hearts.
