Also mentioned in another blog account was the story of Pastor Chuc and other church members meeting with the family of the people murdered on January 1st. Two of the church members began giving Bible studies to the interested family members and four of them quickly made a decision for baptism. Three couples decided to marry, but deferred baptism until the upcoming evangelistic meeting in February/March. And five of the family members made a commitment to keep the Sabbath holy and asked their employer for Sabbath off.
In Mexico even the children are evangelizing! The local Pathfinders group (similar to a Boy and Girl Scout groups) handed out Christian books and magazines to the soldiers who are guarding the Peñitas dam. It reminded me of Matthew 18:3 where the Word of God says: “I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.”
Team Northern Lights feels a strong kinship with the believers in Chiapas. We are rejoicing with them as new believers come forward to make commitments for the Lord. And although we are very far away we know some day, soon, we all will be united in heaven!
Maranatha!
