Mikko in Finland

October 29, 2006

The morning sun shined in through the bus window.

I traveled to Tampere for a seminar organized by Nokia Missio which was titled Victory over the Darkness. Agust Olafsson from Iceland taught at the seminar, he is studying in the state of Minnesota in the United States. The day ended up being full of work and fulfilling as I took turns with the other interpreter interpreting the speaker up front and furiously translating powerpoint slides from English to Finnish in a backroom.

The content of the seminar was powerful. I can remember these in an instant. I am holy. I am a temple of God. I am a new creation in Christ. I am a child of God. I am… there were so many more of them, straight out of the Bible. The truth is and stays the same, regardless of how much the enemy tries to change it or make us believe something else. It is important to believe the truth, not lies. Eternal life is now, not something that begins when we die. We receive it in Jesus Christ, His Son.
