Finally, when the crusade was almost over, eleven souls who
decided for baptism. Sabbath came the
candidates were in the little creek ready for baptism. In spite of the heavy rain people were many
watching for the persons who were accepted Jesus.
Out of the eleven souls who accepted Christ, two of these
were members of the New People's Army (NPA) rebels. They were also lecturer, killer, and ambush
expert. But according to them, we believe that SDA were braved because even
though we gave or our commander give note to datus that no religious meetings
should be held in Inalay, but still they continue to had have crusade. So we believed that their God is with
them. From no on we don't kill people
anymore. We will be a faithful SDA.
One of these also who accepted baptism was a notorious
person. He killed many people already
and he is wanted by the policemen.
According to him, since I knew Jesus who died for me, I should die also
no matter what people say, to continue the work of God.
You know, Nanay, this notorious person, just before baptism,
Friday evening he almost kill again of his brother in-law. The story is this...before baptism, Friday
afternoon, January 31, 1999, he asked to his brother in-law a pig for New
Year's Celebration, because tomorrow is the day of baptism and I put away my
sinfulness and give it to Jesus. So
today it is still Okey for me to eat a swine's meat because I didn't yet accepted
Jesus Christ or baptism. The brother
in-law didn't give to him. But right
after to his baptism, his brother in-law butchered a pig and brought it in the
house of Manahan Calimpiton, the notorious, who decided for baptism though
being refuse. Manahan thought this is
temptation so he said, "now that I finished baptism and accepted Jesus
Christ as my savior, you brought me a cook pork in my house, but before you
will not permit me to buy your pig. Why
not cook in your own house? I don't eat
pork anymore." But his brother
in-law forced him to gave, so Manahan got angry and show the strength of his
decision by getting his sword and stroke it straightly on the neck of his
brother-in-law but finally the brother
in-law run away.
According to manahan, the lord will not permit me to kill again
because he intervenes my sword so that my brother in-law was not hit.
