Jesus Is Stronger than Sorcery!


Sue says:

Thanks to those who have been praying for my learning curve as I have studied Scriptures about sorcery. Sorcery, witchcraft, love potions, charms, curses and related things are great concerns to people in PNG. Even pastors here often are not aware that they can be free from fear of powers which would harm them.

A great resource in Pidgin has come to my notice. It's called Jisas i Winim Sanguma na ol Kain Kain Pawa (Jesus is stronger than sorcery and all sorts of powers). This booklet by Neville Bartle, a Nazarene missionary, is written in a style that appeals to Pidgin-speakers. There are lots of stories about people who had different fears in this regard, and the scriptural answers that helped free them from the fears.

Jeff is finding the booklet helpful in his ethics class too because this kind of power struggle is actively going on here. My missions students are interested in it too.

We appreciate your continued prayers as we use this scriptural resource to explain to people that Jesus is stronger than all other powers.
