Prisons

"Due to political pressure, he was given amnesty and released in 1964" While I am not familiar with the details of Wurmbrands release from prison, in 1964 virtually *all* political prisoners in Romania were released in a general amnesty. Someone more knoledgeable on the subject might want to correct me - or the article.merryXIV 23:33, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

The phrase was in the text when I gave it a combover. I cannot tell you if it is true (ie: if political pressure played a part in his release), and, although what you say is very reasonable, I couldn't tell you if he was released because all the others were released. For now, I'll just change it to "he was released", pending verification. Dahn 04:54, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

== Pastor Wurmbrand and Sabina,

Pastor Richard and Sabina Wurmbrand took me into their hearts, home and family many years ago. I am blessed along with the others they loved as their own: (Brother Job, Lidia, Maya )

You see they adopted me into their family and taught me about the love of God. They were true believers in Jesus their Messiah and cared for the broken hearted and needy of this world. You would think one would be full of sorrow after having suffered so much in prison but Pastor Richard's face shone and he was quite funny. He was the wisest man I have met and the kindnest. Sabina, my Oma, I owe so much too. She adopted me as her own and encouraged me to "take in an orphan".. In 2002 we adopted our baby from China. Thank you Oma!

Tradution

Good afternoon, I'm Italian. Can someone of good will traduce this instructive page in my language? My nation have the right to know what Soviet Union was really, here many people are communist or socialist and these testimonies are ignorated or, worse, hidden. Please, help me, the people must know the right! Thanks for your help in defence of liberty. In Christ, Dave Masters P.S. Sorry for my atrocious know of English language, I hope that someone understand that I published here: good afternoon to all people who read this message. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.12.47.226 (talk) 13:24, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

I actually volunteer for Voice of the Martyrs (the organization that Pastor Wurmbrand founded), I'm about 99% sure there's Italian translations out there of Pastor Wurmbrand's books & biography. They might be a good resource for making an Italian translation of this page. You could contact them directly (the US branch anyhow, who could then contact foreign branches) at www.persecution.com

@Dave Masters : Traduce is not the same as translate. It means "to expose to shame or blame by means of falsehood and misrepresentation." I hope that is not what you mean.--Auric (talk) 00:33, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

@Auric - In Italian, apparently the writer's language, 'traduce' is the same as 'translate' - it's the Italian translation of same. Irish Melkite (talk) 11:58, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Neutrality tag removed

Given that nobody challenged it in detail since 2011 here, and as I find the article relatively unapologetic, I removed the tags. Zezen (talk) 18:18, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
