Fastest way to get through a border patrol

Is this the fastest way to get through a border patrol?


Preaching the gospel and being in possession of a Bible can have strange effects on people as the video will attest. Also read below for a similar experience I had when crossing the border between England and France.

My Experience of Crossing the Border Between England and France

The video above reminds me of an experience I had when travelling from England to France on a car ferry.

As I was waiting in a line of cars to embark, I felt something inside my jacket pocket and it was an illegal flick knife, a prohibited object when entering either country. My first question was, where did the knife come from. I reasoned that it must be from a person who was related to my wife who wore my jacket one day. Carrying a knife was the sort of thing he did as he was involved in criminal activities. My problem was this, I had already declared that I had no illegal objects or substances and was waiting to embark. So I decided to walk out of the car and throw the knife into the sea. However, officials noticed me getting out of the car and it looked suspicious. I got back inside and put the knife inside the glove compartment and below some books and other things.

As we approached the boat, an official waved me aside and my car was chosen to be checked. Before they started checking my car, I watched as they went through another car that had been waved aside. They not only went through the inside of the car, but also pulled the engine cover off. Now it was my turn to be checked. They checked inside the car and now they were searching the glove compartment. I was thinking what to say when they discovered the knife. I decided that I would just tell the truth and hope for the best. As the official started taking out things and digging down he came across a Bible and straight away he put everything back and told us to drive onto the boat. Deep down I guess the Bible sent a message to the official that he would be wasting his time checking my car as the chances that someone would carry a Bible and also smuggle drugs or other illegal things over the border was too remote to bother checking the car any further.

    No, it is not a good time to try to witness to someone who is working. He is not on his own time, but on his employers.

    Love in Christ,

    Salvation takes precedence. The things of God take precedent over the things of men. Jesus healed on the Sabbath and people had a problem with that. But God’s will is that people are healed.

    Wakeup where exactly are you referring to when you said this:

    “T8; WHY CAN I NOT REPLY ON PROPHESIES AND OTHERS,BUT CAN DO HERE?”.

    Are you talking about the forums or the rest of the site?

    Perhaps you are not replying to the correct post if you are talking about the site. I noticed for example you made a reply to 942767 on this page when you perhaps meant to make it a comment on its own and not a reply.

    The forum works differently, all posts are appended to the end regardless of who you are replying to.

    On this page and everywhere but the forums, you can make a comment on the article and also post a reply under each comment.
