How our ancestor believe in Jesus

In the early 1860s, the gospel spread through Yuan Keng Village. Our first ancestor Yi Zhao (奕兆公) had four children, one of them left the village.

Among the three brothers who live in the village, two of them has came to believe in Jesus, the other brother made his living by serving as a Fung Shui Master in the village.

One day, the buffalo that worked for the two brother’s paddy field fallen sick, after consuming some poisoned grass, it stomach got swollen.

The brothers felt helpless, they don’t know how to pray, but they knew a song that they learned from their pastor, and started singing. The title of the song is “耶稣先我往”.

The rhythm sound like this… “11⒎1 2— 1232 1-34 5432 3-2- 11232 1 ⒎1- ⒎— 11⒎1 2— 1232 1— ” (The author rewrote this in memory, it doesn’t match the music scroll)

The two brothers kneel down and sing it repeatedly and the other brother who was the Feng Shui Master laugh at them and said: “ If the buffalo would be heal by singing this song over and over again, I will dump all my Fung Shui instrument and follow you both to believe in Jesus.”

After a while, a hoarse sound came out from the back of the buffalo, releasing gases, the poisons gases inside the stomach of the buffalo had secreted outward, and the buffalo was healed completely.

The brother who was the Fung Shui Master had came to know the Lord after that incident, therefore three of the brothers had believed in Jesus and leads the entire villages to believed in Jesus too.
