New Missionary Work.

[Bezukhov]

I've been thinking about this command from Jesus

"And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
Mark 16:15 KJV


I'm starting here with a spider living in my cellar. I think she will soon accept Jesus as her Savior. But how do I baptize a spider?

I don´t think spiders want to be baptized. They might be handy though: As they can crawl into small nooks and crevices they might help you find Jesus. I looked everywhere but could not find Him, maybe a spider with its additional reach could accomplish it.

I don't know, but don't be a Catholic about it--you have to wait until the spider is an adult before you baptize it.

There is an egg sac at the top of her web. I guess she's an adult, and didn't abort her precious babies.

Be careful, they might not be spider's eggs, but rather eggs of a cockatrice:

They hatch cockatrice' eggs, and weave the spider's web: he that eateth of their eggs dieth, and that which is crushed breaketh out into a viper. Isaiah 59:5

Cockatrices are nasty creatures (basically, dragons with roosters' heads). After the baptism, I'd stay away from that spider if I were you.

Wise advice, I'll take it.


As far as squirrels go time to 'shake the dust from my feet'. Every time I mention Jesus they throw acorns at me.

Squirrels are devious little devils. Good luck if you want to try to baptize one of those.
