The various protestant sects of this area in previous decades were mordant until the ROKS took them over. Now they are flourishing and spreading.

The Koreans seem to be doing for the Presbyterians what the Africans have done for the Anglicans.

You're welcome.

So much dreadful news coming out this week; we need a dose of the Good News too.

It is so exciting and challenging to see their knowledge of Scripture and their commitment to fulfilling the Great Commission.

Yes it is.

It is evidence of the Hly Spirit in the world; the Good News will not be quenched.

It may be going moribund in parts of the West, but it is alive and flourishing in Africa and Asia.

Jesuit priests landed on Korea, along with the Japanese troops commanded by Konishi Yukinaga. Konish's troops were mostly Christians. Jesuit priests were their chaplains. They were Portuguese, and left some of the detailed accounts on the war between Korea and Japan at the time.
