Bible school a blessing

The week just passed 25th to 29 May was well attended by the students,(Church leaders). As many of you know that the Mossurize district is one of the main training areas for witchdoctors in Southern Africa if not a large portion of Africa. So the teaching on Jude in the New Testament was particularly helpful to the leaders. Although most of the leaders come from a background of "traditional religion" they were quite unaware of what to look out for and what some of the characteristics of of false teachers and distorter s of the faith are.

What a blessing it was to see how they they enjoyed Jude but also their comments about in the past they had just skimmed over Jude as it "only had one chapter & therefore of not much substance" according to them. So when we got down to the nuts and bolts of Jude they were quite shocked! But they found it very helpful.
