Hey Sisters and Brothers in Christ,

I hope your day was blessed walking with the Lord. I had a couple of good days on campus. Today Lauren and Oscar each prayed to receive Christ and Tyshon took 100 Prophecies fulfilled by Jesus and a Bible Study (he didn’t like to read books) and Karli accepted a pocket New Testament (I got from the Gideon’s) and a Bible study on the deity of Christ. Yesterday I was able to go through the Gospel with about a half dozen people and got some good seeds planted. Krit was a Hindu guy who said he only believed in one God though he was raised to believe in many. He was searching as to who that God was. I went through the Gospel with him and he took a copy of the Student Edition of The Case for Christ to read. So I will be praying for him. Melanie was another person who seemed close, I think. She was going to meet with a couple of Christians on Thursday, I warned her about the Mother goddess cult on campus and she listened closely to the Gospel and took the booklet to think about it.

Lauren was sitting in the hall where I first enter the main building as it is near a bunch of empty lockers. When I saw her I prayed that if God wanted her to know Him she would talk to me. I hung up my coat and locked it but as I passed her she put her nose into her computer and I felt like she was studying. I took two more steps and remembered I’d felt led to pray so went back and I interrupted her to ask if she’d do a student survey for our Bible study group. “Sure I haven’t done one of those yet,” she replied in a friendly voice so I sat down with her and began. She was wearing leggings and a long sleeve T-shirt had long brown hair, had a cute elf like face, small built like a distance runner. When I asked her what she would say to God to get into Heaven she said, “I… probably, ‘lived my life helping people. I made good decisions and did not get influenced by anything [bad].'” She thought she might have about a 55% chance of going to Heaven. She went to a Roman Catholic Church called Holy Spirit. She listened attentively to the Gospel; she knew Jesus had died for her sins. But I explained Jesus had said in Matt. 5:48 “So you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.” So Jesus lived a perfect life for us and His righteousness was to her credit and His blood had cleansed her from sin. I asked if she would want to trust in what Jesus had done to be forgiven or if she thought something else and she said she wanted to be forgiven. So I said, “If you wanted to trust in Jesus there is a prayer you can pray.”Oh cool,” she replied enthusiastically. So I talked her through the prayer saying she could pray it silently so only God would hear. “OK,” she said and taking the booklet she prayed to receive Jesus. I explained the Christian life to her living inside out when she had finished and gave her a Bible study and 20 Things God Can’t Do. I wrote her name and the date and “forgiven” on the inside and “By the Spirit’s power”. I said everything God was asking her to do He would give her the Power to do by His Spirit. I explained the mass was symbolic of his dying for her and that when she took it she could just say “Thank You”. She thought she’d like to come to the Bible study so hopefully she will drop by. I told her if she now trusted in Jesus righteousness to be her righteousness the likelihood she would go to Heaven is 100%. I would be praying for her and she thanked me and I said, “God bless you,” and headed down the hall. She had a bright spirit in her it was great to talk to her.

Oscar was sitting in the cafeteria against the glass at the counter munching on some Fritos and said he would do a student survey. He’s a slightly built Latino guy with a trace of an accent. He had a wisp of a mustache and a beard. His wavy hair was in bangs that made kind of a curb across the top of his forehead. Nice looking guy. He wore a long sleeved green t-shirt and jeans. When I asked him what he would say to God if He asked why He should let him into Heaven he said, “Hmm… I don’t know.” Thinking a bit more he said, “I think that is what I would say, ‘I don’t know.” He went to Catholic Church each Sunday and he knew Jesus had died to take away his sins. He listened attentively to the Gospel and said he would want to be forgiven for his sins. So I asked, “Do you believe Jesus is God, He died for your sins and rose from the dead?” Well, I didn’t know Jesus was God, He’s God’s son right?” I took out a Bible study then showing him that Jesus often and in many ways claimed to be God and prophecy [Isaiah 9:6] said the Messiah would be God. I showed him that Job 9:8 says that Jesus walks on the waves of the sea and this was one way Jesus claimed to be God by doing that. “I guess he is God,” he replied convinced by the Bible verses I showed him. I said if he wanted to trust in what Jesus had done to be forgiven there was a prayer he could pray and talked him through the prayer saying in praying it he could be forgiven. “Wanna do it?” “Yeah,” he replied then and he prayed to receive Christ. I gave him a Bible as he did not have one of his own and wrote his name and the date and “forgiven” in the front. I told him the mass was symbolic of Christ dying for him and in talking it he could say thank you. I showed him the “Where to Turn” section and the messianic prophecies that Christ had fulfilled in another section. I told him I would pray for him and got his email. “Thanks this was really good how you explained everything, like a TED talk.” I thanked him for talking with me and then headed out saying hey to another guy I knew.

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

In Him,
