Living by a Bible-Trained Conscience, Part 1
Korea (1939-1945)Throughout the war-torn years of 1939-1945, the Japanese occupation left a mark on religious freedom in South Korea. During that time, Jehovah's Witnesses were targeted for punishment because they would not support military efforts. In retrospect, Korean historians and educators alike admire the Witnesses' courageous stance. But the struggle they faced was far from over. It continues today as hundreds of young people in Korea are sent to prison each year for not participating in war or military service. Learn more about their plight in Living by a Bible-Trained Conscience, Part 1.
