‘He rebelled against God?’
Just starting work on the first Bible lessons is fascinating the Brooke's Point Palawano people.
A few Palawanos are working with missionary Dave Ward to help develop evangelistic Bible lessons, wrote Dave’s co-worker Elise Long, and the Palawanos “are transfixed by what they are hearing from the Word of God.”
One of the first lessons concerns the creation of the angels, and of Lucifer.
“Lucifer was beautiful, wise and powerful,” Dave told Lito.
Lito quickly responded, “Yes, but not as powerful and wise as God, because He made Lucifer!”
And when Dave told Tossito that God gave Lucifer a position over the other angels, but Lucifer rebelled and one-third of the angels joined him, Tossito was stunned.
“Na! Na! Na! Na! No way!” Tossito said, “He rebelled against God? No way! Why?”
Pray that Lito and Tossito will continue to be captivated by the teachings of God’s Word. Pray that they and others are diligent to help Dave prepare lessons that speak clearly to the Brooke's Point Palawano people.
