This pastor was saved when one of the women he was ministering to stood up to the crowd and shared her personal testimony.

06/09/2018 Bangladesh (Christian Post) – A woman in Bangladesh saved a pastor from an angry crowd of Muslims and Hindus who were accusing him of converting people to his church, by testifying how she has been transformed by Jesus Christ.

Bruce Allen of Forgotten Missionaries International told Mission Network News that the woman, who wasn’t named, stepped up to the crowd at the village near the Indian border and said that she invited the pastor, named Paul, to speak with her.

“I know there are people who want to know the truth about God. I want them to experience the forgiveness that I have found in Jesus Christ,” the woman told the crowd.

“I want my family, my friends, my neighbors to have the power for daily living that Jesus provides through His Holy Spirit. The transformation of life,” she added.

Allen explained that the crowd was “stumped” by the testimony, as it went against their accusations that the pastor was manipulating or bribing people to come to his church.

“This was truly a grassroots movement from within their own community,” Allen said.
