Hey Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

I hope your day was blessed in the Lord. I had a good day on campus, One girl Oni prayed with me to receive Jesus. I gave the student edition of the Case for Christ to Anthony who was struggling with doubts and gave him some new perspective, encouraged some Christians in their faith, prayed over Morgan who had suffered ongoing pain from 2 surgeries from a broken neck, and went through the Gospel and gave a copy of The Case for Christ to Flamur who had departed from his Albanian parent’s Muslim faith and was searching.

Oni is a very petite black girl. She had straightened hair just to her shoulders and was wearing black lace boots, ripped jeans and a powder blue jacket, her eye glasses had some splashes of blue on the black frames, cute kid. She had this little cleaver closed mouth smile on her face all while I talked to her. She was sitting in a lounge in the BIC not far from where we have Bible Study. She came from a Christian background and went to church and when I asked her what she would say to God if asked why He should let her into heaven she thought for a moment and said, “I would say He should let me into Heaven because I’ve done my best to use my gifts for His glory.” She thought she’d have about a 55-60% chance of going to Heaven. She knew Jesus had died for her sins, though she had not seemed to understand the righteousness of God to her credit by faith. As I finished going through the Gospel with her I asked her if when she asked for forgiveness she’d thought she would be forgiven because she was a good person or if she knew she’d be forgiven because Jesus had died for her. “I know you knew the story but had you been trusting in Jesus to be forgiven?” I asked. “I don’t really know.” she replied. “If you don’t really know it seems like you probably were not trusting in Him right?” I asked and she agreed. I offered her a prayer were she could trust in Christ and thank him for dying for her sins and giving her eternal life. She decided to pray it and she did. I explained the Holy Spirit in the Christian life to her and gave her the book 20 Things God Can’t Do Writing “By the Spirit’s Power”, her name and the date she had trusted in Jesus in the front. I also gave her a Bible study and got her e-mail to send her more information. I explained that if she was now trusting in the righteousness of Christ to be her righteousness she could be sure she was going to Heaven 100%. “Because how righteous was Jesus?” “”100%” she replied brightly with a smile. “And what is His righteousness worth?” “A lot,” she said smiling. “An infinite amount,” I replied “so there is enough for you and me and everyone really.” She was happy, a really nice kid and as I got up to leave I said, “God bless you Oni.” and she said “God bless you too,” cheerfully. And He had.

So thanks for your prayers for te ministry and for evangelism today if you had a chance God blessed the work.

In Him,

Bob
