Please read Matthew 9:37, 38.
A new Christian in Madagascar wrote: “Before I was baptized, I felt like someone who wants to enter the kingdom of God, like I was jumping up on the ground, shouting: ‘Hey! Me too, I want to be a part of your kingdom! Please open to me, because I don’t know how getting there!’ But I knew the only way to arrive is the bible. After baptism, it was like the Kingdom had changed its shape, and it included me. I know God is my Father, so I am like a child; Jesus had opened the way to approach him, and the Holy Spirit helps me to understand new things. My faith is stronger, but I am very careful. I know a spiritual baby is fragile, so I have to avoid all things that could make me return to wrong ways of worshiping.”
Later her sister was baptized. We thank the Kees in Geneva for directing us to follow-up there! Now, their mother is studying a Bible course in French with Barbara Kee.
A Muslim who has not yet obeyed wrote: God will save from sin by sending saver as Sacrifice for humans…. this is our first time to read bible and we like it so much…. We read these lessons and think about bible and Jesus, sent from God to defeat Sin and Satan. The bible is the Word of God, the church is the most important way to follow the Word of God, and Jesus is king of the Kingdom. He really had raised from death….God sent him to erase our sins and defeat Satan.
We hope you are blessed by reading these examples of teachers sending Light into darkness. —Bob and Jan Towell
