============================================================
A story is told about a missionary who went to a remote
area in Northern Tanzania to proclaim the Gospel among the Maasai Ethnic Group
who are a famous warrior people. One day he was explaining to a group of adults
the saving activity of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He told how Jesus is the
Savior and Redeemer of all humankind. When he finished a Maasai elder slowly
stood up and said to the missionary: "You have spoken well, but I want to learn
more about this great person Jesus Christ. I have three questions about him:
First, did he ever kill a lion? Second, how many cows did he have? Third, how
many wives and children did he have?
