A short time ago, the Danish Jehovah's Witness Dennis Christensen landed at Copenhagen Airport after five years in prison in Russia.

And he is delighted that he can now see his family and friends again, who have also turned up at the airport.

"I haven't seen my father, my sister and her husband in over six years. So I am now looking forward to being able to be something for them, he says to DR News.

 

He's still wearing the prison clothes when he lands, and just that has a purpose.

I decided to come home that way to show the whole world that I have nothing to be ashamed of. I am not ashamed of who I am, and I am not ashamed of what I believe in.

 

Wonderfull, he really giving glory to our Father Jehovah.

It's a fact of being a Witness that every day has it's own anxieties, and that prayers can be answered at any time. Usually when least expected.

This news article says he's back in Denmark.  I'm assuming he can attend meetings now if they aren't under COVID lockdown.  What an amazing development!

A brother in my former congregation, who is from Denmark, knew Dennis Christensen years ago when Dennis attended the MTS. This was in about 2000, if I recall correctly. He sent me this article from the Danish state radio/TV channel. It documents his arrival at the Copenhagen airport:

(Google Translation here)

 

He said that when he heard the news on jw.org, he simultaneously learned from sources close to the family in Denmark that he had already left Russia via a flight to Turkey, and he was schedule to arrive from Turkey in Denmark this morning.

Dennis Christiansen has shown us all that we can endure  through the most harshest of trials.  His faith in Jehovah is evident in his persona and  his joy throughout his imprisonment along with his trust in Jehovah.  He never broke a stride.  Although he was used as a pawn, he kept his smile through it all.  When we trust in Jehovah the way this dear brother did, Jehovah will take care of us emotionally and mentally.

 

I hope and pray that I too can endure what is up ahead.  I believe we can all learn from this beautiful faithful brother. 

 

Thank you Jehovah, thank you Dennis!

This brother (Dennis Christiansen) with his faith solely on his God "Jehovah" gave a witness to the world.   What a "witness!"  With his smile and silent demeanor he gave a powerful praise to Jehovah. (Psalm 37:7).

Looking forward on our News JW.ORG, to hear more about our beloved brother Dennis and Irina.  Seeing that he was doing an interview with a danish news reporter.   Am sure he will be of tremendous encouragement and still is to all of us (the remaining friends in Russia undergoing persecution) when he does an interview with our news reporters.  I burst into JOY when I read he was released!  Jehovah, gave him power beyond what is normal and (as others in here have stated) he had HOLY SPIRIT, made him STAND and what a WITNESS to the WORLD, his LOVE and DEEP DEVOTION AND LOYALTY TO our GOD JEHOVAH!
