During our visit to Sanya, we met with Wei Hong, our friend who had received Jesus as her savior a few years back. She shared with us the difficulties in finding Christian fellowship and the struggles with Buddhist doctrine which is widely believed in that area. She mentioned about an old friend of hers (and ours) who died last year and just recently the local Lama has been spreading the news that she (the friend that died last year) has already reincarnated (?). We have no idea how that is possible, because reincarnation is not an option provided in the Bible. We shared with her that this Lama is definitely deceiving them, giving them hope that they will reincarnate after they die when actually, without Jesus they may find themselves in Hell – she understands now that the huge difference with Christianity is that you do not have to work on your good karma to get a good reincarnation… but rather: Jesus did the work for us, dying on the cross so that we may live by His grace: Eternal Life, not reincarnation. We told her another reason why she should tell people about Jesus: ‘if one is going down the road and finds two roads and does not know which way to go, and there are two persons lying there: – one is dead and the other is alive – which one should one ask for directions?’ Jesus is Alive. Anyway, we had a very illuminating talk that one evening – Gloria was a  great blessing in translating and also sharing her own convictions on different matters. Wei Hong was happy to receive one of our Audio Bibles to help her to have more Word time and enabling her to share with others the Truth about the afterlife.
Closer to home here, we shared an audio Bible with Raj’s friend from India who came to visit him this past month.
