This is a true incident which occurred in Romania when the Soviet army invaded it. In a village, two Russian soldiers entered a Baptist church with their rifles pointed and said, "What are you doing here, worshiping God? All those who are faithful to Him, stand on the right side. You will be shot for your faith. You who wish to go home, who wish to keep your life, stand on the left side. You must decide to live or die. Those who are faithful will die. Those who deny Christ can live freely."
Ten minutes earlier, both sides had sung the praises of the Lord, but it cost them nothing except perhaps a few cents or a dollar to put in the offering. Now, it was a question of life and death. Some stood on the right; some stood on the left.
On which side would YOU have stood?
After this sifting had taken place, the Russian soldiers said to those on the left, "You are free to leave." These were happy to have escaped and left the church. When the others remained, the Russian soldiers put aside their rifles and said, "We are also Baptists, but we wish to worship without hypocrites."
