Julius Khayemba has grown in his understanding of the Word of God through the chronological booklets and has been teaching the Word of God in Namabasa district of Mbale, Uganda. The area is full of Islam, and is probably the most Islamic after Iganga and Busolwe.
A few days ago, Julius took part in a crusade organized by Muslim leaders in the region. Here is Julius:
“For the first week of the crusade, I was sharing with the Muslims, yet the result was not very positive. Yet, I would go back home, would take time to pray, and would read more from the booklets.
After one week, I felt the Lord leading me to begin to teach the chronological stories. Then, the people began to become more interested in the meetings because of the stories. People would come to learn more, and even ask questions.
One of the Sheiks asked about the love of God which caused Him to slaughter an animal in order to cover Adam and Eve with a skin. I answered that this is the very way that God loves us. We have sinned, and we are doing all that we can to reach God, including religion, but only God can save us in His way. Only God can give us eternal life.
On the last day, many came to the crusade, but most of them were not wearing their Muslim robes. Many of them asked what could be the solution, and I shared with them that only God is our solution. They came forward and I led them to Christ.
Most of these people are now growing, coming to the discipleship classes that we have with them. Thank you for the booklets. We now have a team which is sharing these booklets to the glory of God.”
