Komodo in Indonesia
PRINT VERSION:
SHARE:
Wikipedia describes the Komodo people as "extinct" because their language is all but dead.
If they even exist any more, the Komodo people live on the Komodo Island in Indonesia.
The Komodo Dragon is better known than the people they share an island with.
The Komodo people are Sunni Muslims who believe the prophesies of Mohammed and agree to the basic tenets of Islam. However, as people living in rural Indonesia, they tend to add pre-Islamic beliefs to their form of Islam. They fear the spirit world, for example.
The Komodo people need to put their trust in Jesus Christ so they can be freed from fear. They need to allow Him to give them life to the full.
* Scripture Prayers for the Komodo in Indonesia.
