Before heading off to the tribal areas we felt
compelled to visit the Ten Seoul Prison. A former high school converted during
the days of Pol Pots Khmer Rouge Revolution in the 70’s to an interrogation
& extermination prison. My word, what a sad and sorry place this was.
Virtually nothing has been changed to accommodate the tourist, little
imagination is required to realise this as nothing short of a murder station.
An estimated 15,000 men, women and children were brought here for the most
gruesome torture you can imagine. Few survived to actually make it to the
killing fields for certain and awful execution.
Jo
& I held our own time of sin remittance John 20v23, whose sins you remit,
they are remitted. We understand that though sins can be forgiven, the
consequence of sin may remain. Also that Numbers 33v35 tells us that “if blood
has been shed the land cannot be cleansed accept by the shedding of the blood
of the person who caused it”. We thank God that the blood of Jesus speaks of
better things and we claimed that as we held a simple communion in that place
and again at the killing fields just a few kilometres away. We celebrated
Christ’s willing sacrifice for the world and the power of His broken body and
His shed blood to wash away the works of darkness. Which works remain until the
saint’s move in their authority to bind & to loose.
