Chapter 2 Ineradicable Blessing


Episode 12 Salvation of an alcoholic father


In my arms there was a mighty power from God. My father sat down on the spot, his whole body trembling like an aspen tree, his eyes closed, and he said "lalala lalala" before collapsing.


There were two reasons why my father rejected the path of Christian faith. “I can't live without alcohol. And how can I go to church when I have to hold ancestral rites (memorial ceremonies) as the eldest son of the head family?”


My father's name is the character Choi (ๅด”, high), Sang (็›ธ, phase), and Gu (ๆฑ‚, request). When people called my father, they called him Sam (three)-gu (nine) instead of his first name. It was a nickname that came from the fact that he walks into a bar, orders three drinks, and goes around nine bars before returning home.


As if to alleviate his resentment, the drunken father took off his shirt and stood in the middle of the railroad with his arms wide open and shouting at the oncoming train. He used to scream “Kill me! kill me!”


When the train came to a sudden stop, my father grabbed the train engine driver by the neck and insisted on having his own way.


“Hey man! Why do you stop the train? Who are you, why do you stop the train and have it your way.”


It was after losing a case in a  trial court that my father became addicted to alcohol. Alcohol was the enemy of our family. Every time I see my drinking father I was upset and resentful of my father.


On a cold winter day, I stood by the bar for hours, shivering, and waiting for my father. Whenever I ran into my friends in front of a bar, I felt ashamed and embarrassed, so I wanted to sink through the floor. The time I waited for my father was extremely agonizing. Even after being discharged from the military, I saw my father still addicted to alcohol, while my mother's faith grew more mature.


One day after working, my mother seemed exhausted, sighed and said,


“Your father says that Wednesday is the memorial service for grandma, so prepare for the memorial service on the market day tomorrow. I am very upset because I, a believer in Jesus, have to prepare food for the memorial ceremony.”


Tears welled up in my mother's eyes. I wanted to see the ancestral spirit, what the heck is the ancestral rite that makes my mother cry. I went in front of the well-preserved mortuary (funeral) tablet covered with sliding screen paper on the wall of the master bedroom. It has been there for too long, and the paper is covered and stained with fly droppings. When I uncovered the screen paper, I saw a well-preserved mortuary tablet. I suddenly remembered the pastor’s sermon. 


When Abraham, the father of faith, was a teenager. Abraham's father, Terah was originally an idol manufacturer and worshipper. so he carried the idols hewn out of wood and went to the market to sell them. Abraham looked at them, but when there was no response, he said, “This is a dead god,” and smashed them all with a rod. So, later he was blessed by God.


I found out later, but it was not recorded in the Bible, and it was a story in the Apocrypha, the Pseudepigrapha. But, the preacher said, faith comes by hearing. As I recalled the words of the pastor, I made a firm decision. 'Yes, in order to become a source of blessing for my family, I must get rid of idols like Abraham did.'


I took out the mortuary tablets, tore them into pieces, ground them into powder with both hands, and threw them into the running stream. And only the cover of the ancestral tablet was veiled. When I thought of what would happen three days later on the day of my grandmother's memorial service, fear suddenly came over me. 


I immediately went to the prayer house where Christians gather to pray and prayed under a pine tree for three days. I fasted and cried out to the Lord. I prayed and prayed. “God, please destroy the idolatry that has been passed down from generation to generation in my family.”


During prayer, I remembered Elijah, who fought against 850 false prophets, including four hundred fifty prophets of Baal and the four hundred prophets of Asherah. Believing that the God of Elijah was my God, I fasted and asked God for my father’s salvation.


At the end of the afternoon on the third day, while praying, the words of Isaiah 41:10 (NIV) came to my mind.

“So do not fear, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”


Encouraged by these words, I made a firm decision and clenched my fists.

'Yes, God will help me.'


My faith became bold, and my whole body felt as light as a feather. At sunset, I came down from the mountain and went straight to the church.

“Pastor, please let’s go to my house and lead the memorial service.”


When I told the pastor what had happened, he was surprised. The pastor and I knelt together and prayed earnestly.

“O Lord, please help us.”


Around 10:00 p.m., I brought the pastor and seven church members to my house. The floor and the yard were occupied by relatives of non-believers. When my church group entered the place where uncles and other relatives gathered, the relatives started to mutter. In a word, it is unlucky to see Jesus freaks on the day of the ancestral rite.


Inside the room, my father, dressed in a white robe, was setting a table for ancestral rites. His face already looked slightly drunk. At that time, I saw a knife in front of my father. For a moment, my eyes were dazzled.

‘If my father found out that the ancestral tablet was gone, he would kill me with that knife… Lord, help me.’


The courage I had until entering the main gate was no longer to be found, my chest shrank and my legs trembled.

“It is time to bow down now, so all men please come into the room.”


All the men entered the room and stood in order. I stood in the living room with the pastor. My father went to the wall and opened the sliding screen (window) paper covering the mortuary tablet. I was nervous and felt like I stopped breathing for a moment. “Oh no, where is the mortuary tablet?”


My father yelled with a pale blue face when he couldn't see the mortuary tablet that was supposed to be inside the window paper.

“You, bastard!”


My father's eyes stared at me full of homicidal looks. My father instinctively realized that I was the one who removed the tablets. Without a doubt my father's eyes turned to the knife and I reflexively screamed,

“Lord! Lord!”


At that moment, I felt strong energy through my whole body, both feet and both hands. Unconsciously, I jumped from the living room into the ceremony room. It was obvious that I would get stabbed if I stood in front of my father, so I went behind him and held my father's shoulders with both hands.

“Father, sit down!”


I felt a strong force coming from
God on my arm. My father slumped down on the spot. His whole body trembling like an aspen tree. His eyes closed. He said "La la la~ La la la," and fell unconscious.

"Brother! brother! Calm down. Open your eyes, brother! What is going on?”

“Oh, wake up, uncle!”


My uncles and relatives came to wake me up by massaging and shaking his arms and legs. Meanwhile, my heart was unexpectedly calm and peaceful. I was certain that my heavenly father was with me.


"Come on, let's worship." At the words of the pastor, the room, which had been in chaos for an instant, became quiet. t was then that for the first time I saw unbelievers
were overmastered by the Holy spirit. The mighty power of God overpowered the unbelievers.


Relatives who were deeply intoxicated with the Korean native religion (shamanism, Buddhism, Daoism, Confucianism) could not say a word and just looked at the worshipers in a daze l
ike people who just zoned out for a moment. 


"Amen."


After the worship service, my father opened his eyes as if he had waited.

“Are you done?”


My father, who had lost all strength in his body and was weak, gradually regained his energy and looked around and said in a low voice.
“Where is the man who rushed to kill me earlier?”

“Who tried to kill you, father?”


“I was about to strike you with the nut-knife, but suddenly a man four feet tall, dressed in white, with a radiant face came running at me with a large sword and said, ‘Listen to me,’ but I was so scared that I begged for help, but
‘la la la la la la’ came out of my mouth without my awareness.”


My father's face was full of fear even at the moment he spoke.

‘Oh, thank God. You sent the archangel.'


I explained to my father step by step.

“Father, I think he is the archangel sent by God. It is said that among the archangels who act on behalf of God, there are  angels of Judgement who carry out God's judgment. My relatives muttered “It seems there is really a living God.”


My uncles went back to their homes, saying that the ancestral rites would no longer be possible.

I comforted my father who was trembling in fear and testified of the living God.

“Father, don't be afraid. Believe in God. Angels of judgment protect believers.”


My father nodded at me and accepted Jesus as his Savior that night. Just as the Lord called Saul on the road to Damascus, the living God met my father on the day of my grandmother's ancestral rite.


On the day my father accepted Jesus, the darkness left my family and the light came. Since that day, my family has changed dramatically.
After being freed from the snare of the devil, oppressed by idolatry, all ancestral ceremonies were turned to Christian memorial services.


That night I see that Jesus' word is still true today as in Mark 16:17-18 “ And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues. they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well” (NIV).


God is alive. If you are willing to die for the gospel of the Lord, you will live.

If I made a mistake while writing or drawing, I would erase it and write or draw again. Everyone has a past they wish they could erase and moments they want to cherish forever in their hearts. God has an eraser. Therefore, anyone who accepts Jesus as their Savior will have all their wrongs erased by that eraser. He does this with unconditional love. Through Jesus Christ, He engraves all the good things granted to believers in their hearts so that they may praise Him forever. Today, becoming a pastor, a professor, leading a revival meeting, and establishing a church to serve thousands of congregants have all been possible because of God's eraser, the love of Jesus Christ, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. God's eraser is the blood that Jesus Christ shed on the cross. Anyone who accepts Jesus as Lord and Christ will have their sins, sorrows, sufferings, diseases, poverty, and all curses erased by the blood of Jesus. Worries, fears, anxieties, and troubles are wiped away. Even when it comes to envy, jealousy, hatred, anger, and resentment, they are erased through the blood of Jesus. Stubborn and hardened hearts are also cleansed. In their place, God plants faith, hope, and love. Moreover, He enables all our desires to be fulfilled through faith, helps us to endure in hope, and allows us to bear the fruits of joy, peace, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control by loving God and others. The struggles of fallen humanity are resolved through the blood of Jesus, God's eraser. Therefore, my family and I will live our lives praising and witnessing the grace of Jesus Christ, who is God's eraser. "I love You, O Lord, my strength." (Psalm 18:1, NIV) From the Kachi hill of Gwanaksan, Author Pastor Choi Nak Joong
