The child eaters
Eduardo 3-4-26
It doesn't matter if it's in a mansion in Tel Aviv or if it's in a hut in the Brazilian rainforest, they all do it in their own way:
"As a missionary working with the Yanomamö, I am constantly reminded that when it comes to spiritual matters, I am not the expert.
Bautista was an ex-witch doctor. He accepted the gospel of Jesus Christ many years ago when my parents first started working with his tribe back in the early 1950s. Although still a young man when they arrived to his village, he was a witch doctor of considerable fame.
He had already attained to the highest level known as “ijiluwalewä, or “child-eater,”because he could attack other villages in the spirit world stealing the souls of a child there, causing the child to die. These souls were given to the many cannibal spirits who were his accomplices in this “murder.” The soul would then be eaten by these demon cannibal spirits. Although having attained the highest he could go, by his own admission, he was being overwhelmed by the bondage he was under even before he heard about the saving power of the gospel, so once he clearly understood that Christ was the only way to be freed from this bondage, he accepted Christ’s claim on his life and his life has never been the same."
