This is a true history of a small village in
the India, and in this village, there was this family that came to
saving faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. This agitated the
village so much and everybody became so upset and angry that a mob
gathered and shoved them in the public square. The village chief
confronted them and said to the man, if you and your family will not
recant your faith, you all will surly die. The man did not know what
to say or what to do, and so the only thing that to came the mind
were the words of the song that he had composed when he first
surrendered his life to God. It began saying, “I have decided to
follow Jesus. No turning back, no turning back”. With that,
horrifically his children were killed.
I have decided to follow Jesus (3x). No turning
back, no turning back.
He's given another chance, this time with his wife's life on a line. And he gets continuing to saying, “Though none go with me. Still I will follow. No turning back, no turning back”.
Though none go with me. Still I will follow (3x). No
turning back, no turning back.
After the retracted death he was given one final opportunity. This time to save himself. Yeah, he continuing to saying...
The cross before me. The world behind me (3x). No
turning back, no turning back.
Even though that man and his family died because they didn’t deny Christ, something remarkable happened, a seed was planted in the heart of that village chief. The seed began to grow over time and eventually he called the community together in that very same neighborhood, in that very same square, and he announced his formal faith, declared he was a leader of Jesus Christ. And the celebration broke out that very moment, and the gospel began to flourish and to grow not only in the village, but across the all region. Because they've seen real faith, they knew the true character of God, because of a family that believed, sacrificed even under the penalty of death.
No turning back, no turning back.
