[Psalm 51:17]

Thank you guys, again - just FYI, here's more I learned from this missionary...

1) He said last night that when we get to heaven, God will commend us for giving money to his missionary ministry.

2) I can't remember the exact words, but a couple of times he commended himself for his works.

3) He elaborated how many, many Muslims(and Jews too) were converted, and said how he's helped build church buildings for them.

4) He said he's somehow in an area in the ME(Israel/Jordan) where it's safe for Christians, where many other areas they are being persecuted.

IOW, I find it odd how he doesn't seem to get one nil of persecution where he's at. I mean not even a slap in the face.

Also, my mom told me this morning how he said there's been a DEVIL inside of me for many, many years until last night when he saw me, and how this devil got quieted when I was in a room with them.

I know I might be asking dumb questions here, but once you are SAVED, you don't have to worry about being demon possessed and having devils inside of you?(Of course, there's always the "falling away" ala the contempletive prayer abominations the Emergent Church is pushing) This is what he pretty much said I have, and I am very disappointed my mom thinks he's telling the truth. I'll be honest and say I've been pretty testy at her over this this morning. Plus we've discussed the Lordship salvation heresy here, which what this guy preaches just EEKS with.

Guys, I'm sorry for bringing this up, I know I should know better, and reading the book of Galatians this morning helped me feel better. However, it rattled me since last night.

As for this missionary dude, it's as if he just popped up unawares at one of the Korean churches in the metroplex. Now my mom's best friend's son is with him in Israel doing missionary work.
