Editor's note: A newly graduated secondary school student mistakenly entered a pyramid scheme. After escaping from the pyramid scheme, he accidentally entered a black factory. He escaped again, but he was caught this time and severely beaten. Losing his memory, he was left outside the factory gate. A half-year after waking up, he had become a beggar. A sister preacher J (pseudonym) encountered him, not only giving him food but also inviting him to read the book of Proverbs. After ten minutes, God healed the young man's mind and consciousness, his memory was instantly restored.
Sister J's story is similar to the Good Samaritan story in the Bible. She said, "This brother's name was Ma Aiyou (a pseudonym), and when he was in his early 30s, he went to work in Beijing and joined a pyramid scheme. They confiscated all his ID cards and kept brainwashing him and giving them training. When he found out that something was wrong, he escaped. After he left the pyramid scheme, he accidentally entered a black factory where he had only steamed buns for his meal with poor living conditions, and couldn't go outside. He was held captive for two years."
She continued, "He escaped, but was caught, beaten so severely that he lost memory, lost his ability to work, and was kicked out of the factory. He walked from Beijing to a small city in Heilongjiang Province. The temperature in the winter there is minus 40 degrees. Then he became a beggar. In the daytime, he asked for food in the mall, and at night, he lived in the telephone booth."
"A beggar with memory loss came to me on the third day after the opening of my restaurant, he went to another restaurant to ask for buns. They didn't give him any, so he came to my restaurant, and I remembered the Bible. Jesus said, "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me." Then I believed that this beggar was a noble guest to me, so I invited him to eat."
"The man was dirty, wearing a women's down coat, 1.8 meters tall, and scruffy bearded. I made hot noodles for him, and he ate until he was full and sweating. Because he had memory loss, he didn't know anything. I found a man from the neighborhood next door, took him to shower, then I bought him two items of clothing, paid for his haircut and a shave, and then I said, 'Come to eat every day,' and he did."
Sister J testified with emotion, "He looked stupid, but he worked hard for me here sweeping the floor. One day he went out to a boss doing cold meat shipping business and said, 'I want to work here,' and the boss said, 'You fool, I don't want you.' But in the end, he did such a good job that the boss gave him 100 yuan and he came back with 100 yuan in salary and gave it to me."
"One day I took the Bible to him and I asked him to come and read the book of Proverbs, and he was a secondary school graduate and read Proverbs very well, and after ten minutes of reading, I asked him, 'Do you understand this sentence?' He said, 'I understand,' and I asked him, 'And where is your home?' In an instant, his memory came back and he said, 'My name is Ma Aiyou, Sichuan Province, a village in Zizhong County, Neijiang City, and I am 37 years old.' I contacted the related government office, and they sent four people here to take him back to his hometown as soon as his memory returned,” Sister J added.
She concluded that his mother had not seen her son for six years and thought he was dead. Brother Ma's wife left without notice and his son suffered from depression. After he came home, his son also recovered and is now a chef extraordinaire in a culinary school, and now this brother drives a cab and can earn 4,000 yuan a month. They also attended church together in his hometown.

编者按：一个刚毕业的中专生，他误入传销组织，逃出后，不小心又进入黑工厂，逃出黑工厂失败后，遭毒打失去记忆，被丢在工厂门外。醒来后，半年的时间里，他沦为一名乞丐。有一天，这个乞丐来到了一个姐妹传道人的饭店中乞讨，被接待了，而且她邀请他读箴言书，上帝动工医治了这个年轻人的心灵与意识，他的记忆力瞬间恢复过来……
有关这个与圣经中好撒马利亚一样的故事的始末，金姊妹娓娓道来：“这个弟兄的名字叫马爱佑（化名），30 出头的时候，他去了北京打工，进入了一个传销团队。他们把他的身份证都没收了，然后不停地给他洗脑，给他们做培训。他发现不对后，他就跑出来。跑出来后，他又进了一个黑工厂，一天三餐，就只有馒头，吃的不好，住的也不好，也不让他们出去，这样的囚禁长达2年之久。”
她继续说到：“后来，他逃出来的时候被发现，惨遭受毒打，之后他大脑就失去记忆后，不能再干活，就把他扔到大门外。他就是走从北京走到黑龙江省的一个小城市。那里的冬天是零下 40 度。后来就沦为乞丐，白天到商贸城要吃的，晚上就在电话亭住。”
“我开店的第三天的时候，有一个失忆的乞丐到别家店去要馒头吃，他们不给他，他就到我这边来，我就想起圣经中，耶稣说过的话， 我渴了，我饿了，我裸露的时候，你给我吃的，就是做在我身上了这样的经文。我就确信这个乞丐是一位尊贵的客人，于是我就请他吃饭。”
“脏兮兮的一个男的，穿的是女式羽绒服，他一米八的个子，胡子邋遢脏兮兮的。我给他做了热面，他吃饱都出汗了。因为他失忆，什么都不知道。我就找一个隔壁的男性邻居，带他去洗澡，然后到楼上给他买两身衣服，去理发、刮胡子，然后，我对他说，你每天都来吃饭吧，后来他就每天都来吃饭。”
金姊妹动容地见证说：“他看起来傻，但他真心给我这里扫地干活。有一天他出去找到一个冷肉运输的老板说，我要在这里干活，老板说你这傻子，我不要你。但最后他干得很好，老板给他 100 块钱，他拿着100元工资回来给了我。”
“有一天，我拿圣经给他看，我让他来读箴言书，他是中专毕业生，箴言读得很好，读到十分钟后，我就问他，我说你这句明不明白？他说：“我明白”，我就问他：“那你家在哪里的？”一瞬间，他的记忆力回来了，他说：“我叫马爱佑，四川省，内江市资中县某村，我 37 岁。。。”他的记忆回来后，我就联系政府部门，政府派四个人给他送到老家。”金姊妹补充说到。
金姊妹总结到：他的妈妈6年没看见儿子，以为他死了。马弟兄的媳妇跑了，儿子患抑郁症。他回家后，儿子也变好了，现在是厨师学校特级厨师，现在这个弟兄开出租车，每个月可以挣4000元。 那之后，在他的老家，我也领他做聚会。
