There is a general anti-Jesus sentiment among the Tibetan Buddhist peoples of the country. Government restrictions prohibit outsiders of any nationality from traveling among certain remote groups like the Doya people.<\/p>\n<p>Thank God for the recent training of seven Doya believers, who have in turn seen over 20 others come to faith. However, each step forward has come at a cost: one man was jailed for several months and not released until he paid a very high fine. Other individuals may believe secretly but are afraid to come forward for baptism. They rightly understand that baptism is a sacred ceremony that marks the beginning of a new allegiance to Christ and a life following Him.<\/p>\n<h3>Let\u2019s Pray<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Pray that those training local Bhutanese believers will maintain perseverance as they raise up these trainees to the next level of competence and understanding. Often, it takes trainers several attempts to help trainees understand new material.<\/li>\n<li>Pray that new believers will be able to train up faithful others who, in turn, can train up others.<\/li>\n<li>Pray that 2 Timothy 2:2 will truly happen.<\/li>\n<li>Pray for new Bhutanese believers to overcome fear. There is fear of social ostracization, fear of financial repercussions, and fear of being cast out of their families - and other types of persecution.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/buddhistguide2026\/4502","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/buddhistguide2026"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/buddhistguide2026"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4504"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4502"}],"curies":[{"name":"\u0921\u092c\u094d\u0932\u094d\u092f\u0942\u092a\u0940","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
