Interruptions

In the immigration prison, it was a very hot  96 degrees.  Fans were running, but it was still stuffy and everyone was sweating.  One Thai man detained there had been in a traffic accident and had gotten hurt .  The other had gotten drunk causing some problems.  While in the regular prisons serving their time, both had been beaten over the head by other inmates.  These 2 men interrupted our teaching several times by laughing inappropriately. One man keep whispering to an invisible friend. The other sat with his legs crossed, smiled a lot, and made flirtatious remarks to the 3 woman in the group. One even claimed to be a medium for one of the Chinese gods.  The other Thais who came to hear about Jesus were very kind and accepting of them.  Towards the end of the lesson, the Christian man who was working with the Chinese inmates came over and prayed for these two men.  We finally got through the lesson and quizzed the Thais.  Even though there were many interruptions, all of them gave correct answers!  It was a blessing to be able to teach God's Word in spite of the heat.
