We went to the cultural center Saturday night and there I met Tony, and officer in Taiwan’s army who flew Cargo planes. Tony knows Mike and Carolyn and came to the cultural center just to see them. He is not a believer yet. Tony and I had a very good conversation about religion in Taiwan. He told me that his wife did not eat any pork because the fortuneteller told her that it would put obstacles in her path. Tony told me that his father had taken him to the fortuneteller to help him live a life of health and prosperity. But it was obvious God’s Spirit was working in Tony. I told him that I believed that God would not remove the obstacles from our lives but help us through each obstacle. We talked about the death of Mike Miller’s mom and about to how to get to heaven. We talked about the debt we owed to God because of our but how God had loved us and come in the person of Jesus to pay that debt for us. The analogy of us owing a debt we could not pay seemed to connect with him. Tony, Carolyn and I talked of maybe an hour and I told him I hoped I got to see him again before we left yesterday.
