Missionary story


 A man named John Kennedy and his wife set sail as missionaries to an area with several islands. 6 month trip. During the voyage he conducted worship on the ship. Everyone liked him.


Kennedy and his wife came to the island, held a map of the islands in their hands, prayed and touched an island with their hands. What a surprise the two touched the same island.


When you are ready to go to that island the ship captain tells them sir you go to another island. But do not go to this island. Those who went here have never returned. Humans are said to be eaten alive by the people of this island. But missionary Kennedy said it was the Lord's call and that they were sure to go.


Captain they go OK but do one thing. Tie this little boat to the shore and put the tent on the shore. He gave me a small boat saying that if they chase you take the boat and come to sea.


Kennedy also built a boat on the shore.


Learned the language in one line.


Two years passed and no one became a Christian. They both knelt on the beach and cried and prayed.


In a few hours God spoke to him


God

Kennedy Do you believe me


Kennedy

Yes Lord I trust in you


God

Kennedy Do you believe me


Kennedy

Yes Lord I trust in you


#God

Why did you tie that boat ashore?


Kennedy

To run if people come to kill us


God

Kennedy Do you believe me?


Kennedy

Yes I believe in the Lord


God

 If I had run away from death that day, would mankind have been saved? Destroy the boat


The boat came ashore with Kennedy. The wife brought kerosene and a matchbox. The boat burned.


The islanders who saw the fire fled. Thurayare asked what had happened and told the gospel on the spot. 200 people accepted #Christ on the spot. Evangelism spread.


When John F. Kennedy first came to this island there was #no_a_Christian.

When John Kennedy died today, it was written in his grave that there was no one on this island who did not know Christ.

Who is a REAL FOOL according to the Bible?

 


GIVE THIS A Thought !!


The World calls this day (April 1) "All Fools Day" or "April Fools Day". But Who is a REAL FOOL according to the Bible?


5 times in the Bible Jesus chose to address people as "fools" in the gospels.


1. The Careless Fool - Mat. 7:24-27 (Those who do not put the Word into practice)

2. The Hypocritical Fool - Mat. 23:17-19 (Those who live double-standard lives)

3. The Sleeping Fool - Mat. 25:1-8 (Those who are unprepared for Jesus’ coming) 

4. The Materialistic Fool - Luke 12:16-20 (Those who live for this world)

5. The Unbelieving Fool - Luke 24:25 (Those who do not believe in his promises)


Who else does the Bible say is a fool?

1. He Who Says There Is No God. Psalm. 14:1

2. He Who Trusts In His Own Heart. Proverbs 28:26.

3. He Who Is Always Right [In His Own Eyes.] Proverbs 12:15.

4. He Who Despises Wisdom and Instruction. Proverbs 1:7.

5. He Who Is Soon Angry. Eccl. 7:9.

6. He Who Slanders Others. Proverbs 10:18. 

7. He Who Mocks At Sin. Proverbs 14:9.

8. He Who Talks A Lot. Proverbs 29:11 

9. He Who Minds Others’ Business. Proverbs 20:3; 26:17
