Hey Sisters and Brothers in Christ,

I hope your day was blessed with all good things from above. I had a good day on campus in as much as I went through the Gospel with 7 students and Sam prayed with me to receive Christ. The others all seemed like they were possibilities if God chose to draw them in, none were really opposed to the Gospel. Thanks for your prayers Sam’s story is below if ya got some time. Please pray for him that he’d grow in his faith.

Sam was sitting by the financial aid windows. I believe you pay your bills there too. He was a good looking black guy with a beard heavier on his jaw like rough in surface and about an inch and a half out. He had braids about 4 inches long. He wore a blue t-shirt and blue shorts. Slender build. When I asked him what he would say to God to be let into Heaven he said, “I haven’t done anything bad, hurt someone. I’ve always believed in Him and stuff. Been to church a couple times… I don’t know.” He thought he had a 100% chance of going to Heaven. I began to go through the Gospel with him and he knew Jesus had died for his sins. He tracked closely with the Gospel and got the point. So I finished going though the Gospel and I asked if he wanted to be forgiven for his sins with God living inside him to give him strength or thought something else and he said, “God live inside me thing,” pointing to the circle with God inside your life on the throne. I said that if he wanted to be forgiven there was a prayer he could pray and I walked him through it saying he could pray it silently. “Alright,” he replied and he took the booklet and prayed to receive Christ. When he finished I took it back saying he could keep it but using the end to explain living “inside out” by the power of the Spirit. He had his own bible. I gave him a copy of Bible Promises for You and wrote his name and the date and “forgiven!” on the inside. I gave him a Bible study on the places Jesus claims to be God appealing to the Old Testament. I said the likelihood he would go to Heaven now was 100% trusting in the Righteousness of Jesus to be his righteousness. “I’ll see you in Heaven. I’m old so I’ll get there first and show you where all the cool places are, so right away you’re gonna owe me.” “Yeah,” he said with a grin. I got up to leave and he said quite sincerely, “Thank you.” “Yeah, have a good one Brother,” I replied. And I headed out.

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

I Him,

Bob
