Five Accept Christ

 Wednesday at the prison we had the opportunity to speak with mainland Chinese inmates.  All 6 who came were presented the Gospel in Mandarin.  Khun Darunee translated Richard’s Thai into Mandarin, as he used the EvangiCube.  His presentation was long because he explained in detail each picture and God used it to touch the hearts of those present.  Five our to the six persons wanted to confess their sins and believe. 

One girl named Lee Fang had grown up with a Christian mother and had been curious about Christianity. However, she had never accepted Christ until coming to the prison. Now she wanted Jesus in her life. She told us that the day before she had had a terrible headache and stomachache.  When she prayed to God, He healed her almost instantly.  To her this was proof that God was with her.  She came to Taiwan under a false name from mainland China to make money, married a Taiwanese man, and had triplets.  Then the police found her and put her in the immigration detention prison.  Upon release in the next 2-3 months, she will be deported back to mainland China with no chance of returning to Taiwan.  She is very distraught because she will not be able to see her children and husband in Taiwan again.  Now that she has found Christ, she wants to have a united family under God.

Another man asked if it was the responsibility of every Christian to proclaim the Gospel, then why had he never heard about God until he came to this prison?  He had even painted the walls of a church in China and no one told him about God.  He had heard about many gods, but never a god, who would take away his sins.  He now wanted this God of forgiveness.
