횂징횂째횂징횂짝 that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures횂징횂짝횂징횂짹 (1 Co. 15:3-4)
Praise the Lord of resurrection who died for our sins and has risen. Praise the risen Christ who has given us true victory against all our enemies, even death. Thank God for blessing the Mexico Easter Bible conference, March 20-23. It was held at Mazahua in Toluca, which is a traditional place, and 179 attendants came (Acatlan 24, Azc 8, IXT 34, IRP 2, MOR 7).
God powerfully established all of the following messengers: Sh. Carlos (Gen. 1), Juan (from Izt, Gen. 2), Areli (Gen. 3), Janet (Jn. 4), Juan Carlos (Jn. 5:1-10), Blas (from Act, Jn. 9), Ricardo (Jn. 19), Fermin (1 Co. 15a), Gerrardo (1 Co. 15b), Ivan (1Co. 15c), and Raul (Mt. 13:44). Especially, from Sh. Fermin횂징횂짱s message, we learned that the clear focus of the Gospel is the death and resurrection of Jesus. All our sins were buried with Jesus and our lives have been raised with Jesus by faith. Sh. Fermin is handsome and intelligent and has good mind, but he had suffered from the lustful sin he committed with a prostitute when he was a UNAM student. He repented through 1:1 Bible study and became good shepherd. His whole family was converted and became shepherds through him. Among them, his sister Rosalba became a missionary to Chicago UBF.
God established 5 life testimony lectures and 11 sogam lectures by new sheep. Almost all of them suffered from broken families, poverty, lust, or drug problems. Especially, Sh. America suffered because of her problem with homosexuality. But this year she became a shepherdess through Bible study after about 5 years. She helps many sheep and is an excellent Bible teacher at her medical campus. Many sheep have studied and left. But she finally brought one sheep named Humberto to this conference. Sh. Juliana (from Izt) grew up in a broken family. She couldn횂징횂짱t forgive her father and suffered from poverty and fatalism. But she was invited by her sister and could forgive and love her father and overcome all difficult situations through 1:1 Bible study with M. Sarah Baik. Now she works for the medical social service in Yucatan. It is about 30 hours by bus from Mexico City but she came to the conference by faith.
We had a joyful festival on Saturday night. It was full of world mission vision with a beautiful 30 member orchestra and 3 different beautiful Mexican dances from 3 chapters. The drama by Sh. Sergio moved our hearts. It described the shepherd heart of Jesus toward campus students.
I was in Korea to serve my parents횂징횂짱 salvation during conference preparation. I could only serve by checking the messages through email in Korea. Sh. Raul M. trained the messengers, and Sh. Sergio and M. David Hong organized the conference with the leaders. God used them preciously and blessed the conference with the powerful Word and Spirit. May God change this nation into a kingdom of priests and holy nation.
We are now praying for the Purdue International Conference so that 3000 people may attend and that God may give Dr. John Jun the Holy Spirit. We also pray that our members may receive their visas.
