Two Missionaries Murdered In Mexico (L)
 
While we have some doctrinal differences with these folks, we still must commend them for trying to bring people to repentance and a knowledge of the gospel. Please pray for the family and for all missionaries in Mexico.

Amen sister.

God calls people to dangerous places. Look at what Paul said....

2 Corinthians 11:26....


I have been constantly on the move. I have been in danger from rivers, in danger from bandits, in danger from my own countrymen, in danger from Gentiles; in danger in the city, in danger in the country, in danger at sea; and in danger from false brothers.


I have ministered in Mexico in the past and will continue to do so. The murder of these two missionaries does not deter me.

I don't relish the thought of being murdered, or one of my children being kidnapped. But I must trust God. The gospel is worth putting your life at risk over.
