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.
