Listen from:
One Sunday southern Norway was violently shaken by an earthquake which caused great excitement in the country. That evening people rushed to the building where young Albert Lunde was to preach the gospel. A revival broke out which continued for several years, and crowds filled the largest halls in the country.
Once when a big crowd waited outside a large music hall in Oslo, a business man, having completed his work, decided to attend a place of amusement. Seeing the large music hall crowd, he joined in and found himself inside where the building was packed. After some singing and prayer, he at last realized his error, but he could not get out, so he listened to Albert Lunde. That night the business man was converted and became an active Christian worker in the town where he lived.
Albert Lunde was used in the salvation of many, including one of the presidents of Finland.
When Albert died, a very large company attended his funeral. There were no flowers on his coffin, but instead his Bible was opened at Romans 8:32—“He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us ALL, how shall He not with Him also freely give us ALL things?”
