REY. and MRS. ELMER ENTZ Missionaries to India viTrvaT i lift nrrfj By HOLLY HORWOOD A force every bit as potent is countering anti-Christian Communist powers around the world. In the face of abject starvation, torture and brainwashing, the Underground Church is struggling for survival in some 57 Leninist-Marxist coun tries. 4 Yet the rest of the Christian world, which rose in horror at the Jewish plight during ethe Second World War and dispatched and negotiators to Vietnam and Rhodesia, is now standing by in apparent disregard, a spokesman for the church says.

"I'm appalled at the apathy we hear Tabout the Holocaust now, but there is another one going on in Cambodia, where more than a fourth of the population, two i million people, have been killed murder ed in the most brutal fashion," said Walter Day in an interview In Vancouver. A former missionary in Zaire, British-born Day has been linked for 11 years to a organization calling itself Jesus to the Communist World. 'Relying on secret codes and strangers, hp has helped smuggle hundreds of Bibles pmto Communist satellite countries, raised bail for Christians imprisoned in Commu-mist jails, and organized Gospel meetings in fields, farmhouses and basements. "The western Christian world is blind to the atrocities which believers in Iron Cur- tain and Bamboo Curtain countries must suffer. They are content to believe the propaganda published in Izvestia or tfravda (official Russian "In'his book, Tortured for Christ, the founder of Jesus to the Communist World, (Richard Wurmbrand, detailed his own suf ferings during 14 years in Romanian prisons.

Persecution has produced serious, dedicated Christians such as are bjarely seen in free lands." In RussU, once a stmg Orthodox country, the 110,000 churches active prior to the i.1917 Communist uprising have been de- Lpleted to 6,000. Leningrad's biggest church is now a swimming pool. -t In open defiance of the United Nations declaration of human rights, which it sien- led, Russia's government has made it ille- Jjal to teach the gospel to anyone under 18.

Yet the Christian faith endures, propped up by the trickle of Bibles and literature Jesus to the Communist World. "Amazingly, one tattered Bible will be carefully cut up into many parts and exchanged with a whole community," said Day. Whole boxes of Bibles have been dropped overboard from boats off the coast of China and floated ashore to be picked up by sympathetic villagers, v' -t- Thousands of others receive the gospel via shortwave radio messages delivered by pastors and ministers turfed out of their churches by ruling Communists. Others organize meetings under the pretence of birthday parties or use a few dollars supplied by the mission to spread the gospel to neighboring 1 Jesus to the Communist World has set up active forces in 56 Communist countries, from the Eastern Europe bloc nations to Albania, Mozambique, and Jamaica. "Thirty-seven countries have come under the Communist heel since the Second World War.

In Cambodia, North Korea and North Vietnam there is not a Christian left over 12 years old," said Day. Of the eastern European nations, Poland, formerly a devout Catholic nation, and Yugoslavia are the most tolerant of Christians. "But we're worried about future suffering, particularly if Tito (Yugoslavia's leader) dies the same in Kenya, which is surrounded by Communist countries, now that Kenyatta is gone." What is the crime of believers? According to Lenin: "Millions of sins, filthy deeds, acts of violence and physical contagion are far less dangerous than the subtle, spiritual idea of a God." Sun 9 Says Day: "The Christian emphasis on love and forgiveness is totally opposed to the Communist doctrine of hatred and cruelty. Yet on the outcome of Communist oppression, an optimistic Wurmbrand writes: "The Communists are loved by Christ. They can and must be won for Christ.

They can be won only by the Underground Church behind the Iron Curtain Jesus said 'teach all He never said stop at the Iron Curtain." black culture. We're here to improve on what we're doing and to make the church relevant to conditions today," said the Rev.
