'Amazing story and highly recommended for church libraries.' Church Libraries

The remarkable true story of renowned Chinese Christian Brother Yun.

This is the gripping story of how God took a young, half-starved boy from a poor village in Henan province and placed him on the front line for Jesus, in the face of impossible odds. Instead of focusing on the many miracles or experiences of suffering, however, Yun turns his gaze to and centers his story on the character and beauty of Jesus. Interspersed with his personal account are contributions from his wife, Deling, made mostly during her husband's frequent periods of imprisonment.

This dramatic autobiography of one of China's dedicated, courageous, and intensely persecuted house church leaders is a watershed book that will turn the reader to prayer and praise. It deserves comparison with past classics such as Tortured for Christ by Richard Wurmbrand, or the Life of Watchman Nee.

Brother Yun became a believer at the age of 16. Soon after he became a Christian, God called him to be His witness in the west and south. As he was obedient to the calling, he eventually became a witness of Christ not just in the western and southern parts of China, but throughout China and in the nations beyond China as well.

He is an expert on the Chinese church and author of The Heavenly Man, which has sold more than 500,000 in English alone, and Back to Jerusalem.

“The story of Brother Yun’s persecution and imprisonment is heart-rending. It’s a profound challenge to each of us to take up the cross and follow Jesus. I found it deeply moving.” —Rev. Dr. Rob Frost
"You may begin reading The Heavenly Man on your couch, but you will finish it on your knees."—Reinhard Bonnke

Give Your Maximum To God

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 5 January 2019

Verified Purchase

There is a lot of controversy over how genuine this account is, and I have no way of knowing whether it is true or not, but one thing I know for sure is that the "God Before Anything" attitude of Brother Yun as presented in this book is something to aspire to. Whether or not these extraordinary miracles happened exactly as described is unimportant to me, because I know that my God is more than capable of performing each and every one of them, as we can see in the Word of God itself time and time again.

I can't imagine a more extreme experience of torture and persecution, but I know I haven't come anywhere near the same level of discomfort in life, and therefore have not been forced to lean on God for my survival, as Brother Yun had to. I know that I am not giving my maximum to God, and have never been satisfied with that, but this has reminded me that God expects our maximum.

In this book, I highlighted "Not to obey God implies that we are wiser than him," and "It always pays to obey the Lord!" and "If you truly want to see God move, the two main things you must do is learn the Word of God and have the obedience to do what God tells you to do." - and of course "You may not be beaten or imprisoned for your faith, but I am convinced each Christian will still have a cross to bear in his or her life. In the West it may be ridicule, slander, or rejection. When you’re faced with such trials, the key is not to run from them or fight them, but to embrace them as friends. When you do this you’ll not fail to experience God’s presence and help."

A massive challenge - one that demands a response...

Powerful !! Read this book!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 29 January 2017

Verified Purchase

This is an amazing book, a must read for everyone! Powerful and inspiring, this true story of brother Yun's life of persecution in China gives a very moving account of determination and faith despite relentless opposition from the authorities. As a teenager living in poverty he witnessed a life changing moment which prompted him to determinedly pursue his faith. Filled with testimonies of truly miraculous events, i found this book difficult to put down. I have no doubt that his mission is a calling from God. This book has strengthened my faith and given me courage to persevere in difficult times and to appreciate the freedom we have in the west to worship freely. It has also highlighted for me the potential pitfalls of modern day worship, without the power of the Holy Spirit as our guide (so important! ). His story is packed full with insight into what's really going on in the world, with it's deceptions and challenges as well as the hope that is available for change. It also moved me to tears. If brother Yun's story was ever made into a film, I'm sure it would be a box office sell out. I would also recommend his other book ' Living Water', which has been a tremendous inspiration to me, filling me with hope and enthusiasm for God's will to be done on earth as it is in Heaven. I have personally received a miracle in my life through Jesus Christ, having been set free from my addictions, just by asking Him to help me. He is faithful.

Perfect Faith

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 28 December 2014

I had to pass this book on. I came across it whilst I was fasting and without question I knew the Holy spirit wanted me to learn, and learn I did, My My My I am so humbled and am forever changed. Surely all other ground is indeed sinking sand. Brother Yun states in the West there is insurance for everything, which is so true , we depend, rely and trust on INSURANCE. It really got thinking and re evaluating my life. Church Buildings(aesthetically), and doctrines in the west are very much important than just having the TRUTH, straight bible study, prayer , fasingt and ministering. Brother Yun is a humble man and even when I viewed his sermons on YOU TUBE, I see sincerity and how he clings to his bible,(that it is his insurance), I know he is a genuine, honourable, servant of God who will not compromise no matter what. If you ever questioned God s existence, his son Jesus the Holy spirit then this book is what you need. From the first page to the last, all GLORY is given to the one above! The creator! Bro Yun states its an honour to serve God in spite of the persecution, then he goes on to say don't pray for the prosecution to stop lest we get complacent, WOW now that's PERFECT FAITH in CHRIST without a shadow of a doubt. WHAT AN INSPIRATION! TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Review of the heavenly man

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 24 March 2021

Verified Purchase

This book totally surprised me as to the evil that exists in the world, especially in China and Burma, and probably in other countries like Saudi and Iran.
Without reading something like this you don’t really realise how easy our lives are — as others really suffer for Jesus.
This book really brings home our failings and chapter 25 challenges us . Very inspiring!

A book all worshiing people ought to read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 3 August 2013

Verified Purchase

I bought this book on the recommendation of a friend. At first I found it heavy going ,but soon realised that (a) it was written by someone who 's first language was English, (b) something might have been lost in the translation. I am truly amazed at what this man was put through all for being a Christian, and at times found myself thinking I was reading a work of fiction as it was so far from anything I had ever heard of . Truly an amazing reading . I am now so grateful that I am Christian living in a Christian country, and will no longer take so lightly that I can worship openly.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 17 December 2012

Verified Purchase

This book really is almost like a modern day Book of Acts. It is amazing how God uses a boy from a village in Henan for His great purpose in spreading the gospel. The book outlines just how much suffering a Christian can go through for his/ her faith but it is also a great testimony of God's provision and power even in the bleakest and darkest of circumstances. God never promised that the path of being a Christian would be smooth, but He DID promise that He would be with us through it all and this book is a faithful witness of that unbroken promise. Simply inspiring and also very convicting in terms of my own personal challenge to walk the faith as a child of God.
