Hey Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
I hope your day Friday was blessed and you are enjoying something like the best weather of the year we get these days near Chicago with Joy in the Spirit. I had a good day on campus and Roman prayed with me to receive Jesus. I’d be grateful for your prayers blessing on Him. Dome details of my encounter with him are below if you want to spend the time.
Roman was sitting in a lounge about in the middle of the BIC on the first floor. He had a mop of dark hair (like an anime character) the part of which seemed a bit left of center. He wore a grey shirt and had what I think his girlfriend would call a cute small face, small features, looked tanned or Latino. He was hoping to become an engineer and had a sticker that said “Engineer” on his lap top. Not too big of a guy. He said he hadn’t been to Church in some years. When I asked him what he would say to God to get into Heaven he said, “I always try to think about the other person.” He thought he had a 50/50 chance to get into Heaven. He listened closely to the gospel and when I asked him what the big thing was that Jesus had done to take away our dins he said, “He died.” He took the Gospel all in smiling at some of the stories and I asked if he would want to be forgiven for his sins with Christ living inside him giving him the power to he and he said, “Yeah. “ I said if he wanted to be forgiven there was a prayer he could pray and walked him through it. I asked if it was the desire of his heart and he said Yeah and I said he could pray it silently if he wanted and only God could hear. “Sure,” he replied and prayed to receive Jesus. I explained living “inside out” and 20 Things God Can’t Do writing his name and the date and “forgiven” and saying he could just ask God for the power to do anything God was asking him to do. I gave him a Bible study on the deity of Christ from prophecy and Gospel passages. Then I recalled one of the words to describe himself had been “Doubtful”. So I gave him The Case for Christianity Answer Booklet. I told him that trusting in the righteousness of God seemed grateful and I said I would pray for him for a year. I walked of and saw his face as he pulled down his mask.
So thanks for your prayers for evangelism and the ministry Friday if you had a chance God truly blessed. Roman is 51st of students who have prayed to receive Christ on campus fall semester.
In Him,
Bob
