(Continued)
The next day, after doing some last minute shopping for food and etc. in San Diego we were ready to cross the border. We made it past the border, that is Tijuana, just before it got real dark. It's amazing how the atmosphere suddenly changed right after crossing the border. All the noise, bustle and confusion which are not common here in the USA was a real eye opener, especially to the other brethren who were with us who had never been out of the United States before. We all braced ourselves for the days ahead. We headed to downtown right away, changed some money and we were off to find accomodations for the night, which was going to be an experience for the rest of the trip. After that was taken care of, none of us were ready for some food, we all wanted to get to work right away. That we did. We went downtown and ended up in front of the Catholic church and we started distributing literature right there. We were able to get out several hundred books that very first evening. Feeling blessed, we headed back to the motel, and after some well-deserved relaxation and personal Bible study, we were ready for a good night's rest.
The next morning, after showers, we were ready to get some fresh fruit for breakfast in the open air market a few blocks from the hotel. Surely, that experience in the market is nothing like any grocery experience here in the states--even the open air, farmer's markets. On our way back to the motel, a man, who almost looked like a homeless person, approached us trying to tell us of his ailment and was asking for whatever help we could give him. We invited him to follow us to our room. It turned out that he had a bad ear infection. We administered some onion and lemon juice ear drops and then placed a garlic clove on the outside of his ear. We explained to him what we were doing and encouraged him to continue the treatment that we gave him. He was very willing and happy to kneel down when it was time to pray for the Lord's blessing on the natural remedies that were administered to him. It was a real blessing to help someone in need.
Friends, the remainder of these photos will attempt to illustrate the delusion that our dear Catholic friends have been drawn into. Oh to be able to share with them the freedom in Christ of His Righteousness—and accepting His Righteousness by faith. Oh that they might learn that there is NO other intercessor other than the compassionate Jesus, who is our Advocate. May they be shown that they are NOT to confess their sins to an earthly priest, but can come directly to the Throne of Grace, through Jesus, and confess before the Son. God bless you all.
