A Great Trip to Seoul

During April 5-15, 2010, my wife and I had the privilege of taking a trip to Seoul, South Korea.  We visited the David Mitchell family, and they were more than gracious hosts to us.  While stationed at Fort Benning, the Mitchells became a part of our church family.  In 2007 they transferred to Yongsan Military Base in Seoul.  We look forward to having them come back to Georgia soon.

Kathy and I greatly enjoyed the trip.  The ten days with the Mitchell family were days of great fellowship, great food, and great learning.  It was both education and inspirational.  One cannot visit such a massive city without being struck with the great need of the city.  Seoul is one of the world’s largest cities, with approximately twenty-four million people in its metro area.  The mass sea of humanity, that we encountered this week, was one of great need.  The influence of the false religions was apparent everywhere.  There were evidences of Buddhism, Islam, Catholicism and others.  There were many Presbyterian churches, but they are of the neo-evangelical, contemporary style.  They preach a weakened gospel that promotes infant baptism, denies eternal security, and lacks any form of biblical separation.  The need for fundamental works is very great.  While it is true that the people of North Korea live in both physical and spiritual darkness, it is still true that spiritual darkness also envelops South Korea.  Both Koreas need the light of the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ.

It was a great blessing to also visit the work of missionaries David and Joy Lewis.  Brother Lewis has been supported by Lighthouse for a number of years.  He has served in Seoul for almost eleven years.  His ministry is to the American military at the Yongsan Military Base, which is located in the heart of Seoul.  We were in the services at Yongsan Baptist Church for two Wednesday and one Sunday.  It was my privilege to preach both services on Sunday, April 11.   It was also a joy to see a Philippine lady follow the Lord in believer’s baptism.  She was publicly baptized, even though it meant receiving criticism from her family.  She will, most likely, be renounced by her family.  Yet, she chose the way of Jesus Christ.  What a joy it was to be there.
