Saved!

I heard a great account on the radio today from K.P. Yohannan, founder of Gospel for Asia. I will retell it to the best of my recollection.

There was a village where none of the residents had ever heard about Jesus. They were mostly or all Hindu. One family went to the temple priest to inquire about some struggle or another. The temple priest told them that they were being punished for wrongs in past lives. To take care of the problem they should sacrifice their 4 year old daughter.

They agreed and set a date.

Then a Christian missionary came to the area and by the grace of God the temple priest came to Christ. Together they were able to stop the family from carrying out the previously planned atrocity. Instead some or all of the family came to Christ as well and the village was able to hear the gospel for the first time.

Hallelujah!
