Bible Study with the Female Prisoners at Davao del Sur Provincial Jail, Matti, Digos City, Davao del Sur

November 17, 2016

The Apostle Paul was willing to "suffer all things lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ" (1 Cor. 9:12). The servant of the Lord possessed this attitude about truth. He was well aware of the value of truth. Truth is in-dispensable to our salvation. Jesus said one must know it to be "made free from sin" (Jn. 8:32). Paul echoes this sentiment when he wrote how it made the Romans "free from sin and the servants of righteousness" (Rom. 6:18). Therefore God desires that all men "come to a knowledge of it that they might be saved" (1 Tim. 2:4). 

We continue to preach the Gospel of Christ at Davao del Sur Provincial Jail where almost 500 prisoners detained. For the second consecutive week, we preached in the Female quarter due to the conflict activity in the male. But thankfully, we find the female prisoners attentive in studying the bible in which we started to study the basic principles, which is the salvation in Jesus Christ. My father, Julie Divine A. Notarte, preached the word of God. Brother Jonathan Notarte lead the songs and the preachers who cooperated were brother Joseph Notarte, Ben Dulong and I (Joshua Notarte).
