Another Neat Week-end

This one week-end just passed, we had a group of Rastafarians. If you have any idea what they believe, you are looking at this blog now, with a wearded face. The reason I say this is that Rastafarians are known by the use of a called , (they call it ), for their (spiritual) religious purposes. The verses that they use to back this are. Psalms 104:14 He cause the grass to grow for the cattle. And vegetation for the service of man. That he may bring forth food from the earth. Another verse is Genesis 3: 18 Both thrones and thistles it shall bring forth for you. And you shall eat the herb of the field. One more verse is Exodus 10:12 and the last one is Proverbs 15:17. You can get the idea that you can make these verses work for them. Now back how did they get to stay at the Adventure Learning Centre Camp? Well when the man named Paul came to pay for their deposit, I ask him if he knew that we are Christian Camp? He said yes sir. Then even Dan that ran the camp before me talked with him too. So we decided to let them stay, as long as I kept an eye them. Which I did, no real problems except one night they had a song singing night and morning, until 5am. The only reason I know is that Will and his wife live on the campus and they ask me to talk with them about not having anything pass 10pm. Which that day I ask and told them that. No problem at all. They were excepting about 80 people, but I guess our Lord just protected us and only had 9 to 10 at one time. I tried to listen to the songs that they were singing but I just could not understand Jamaican. The reason for this time of them coming together was so they could get all the same page in what they believe. I did walk in during their time of watching videos, which the ones I saw was on Slavery and even a on the Second World War about the Jews being taken to the camps to be killed. Now after I saw these two movies, I talk with a , I asked her why do you guys watch about the pass, what about the future, The of Jesus Christ. She just told me that they need to see the history and to understand it. I jus told her that the of Jesus is the only thing that you need to move forward. She understood but not. I have so much more to share about the week-end but I know by now you are boarded. So if you want to learn more about them. Check out this web page. Rastafari, www.swagga.com/rasta.htm and this will show you so much more about why they are the way they are. It is sad to see people that don’t take Jesus as the Lord and Savor, which He is. Bye for now. Tom, Phil 4:13
