Results of the Work – 9/16/2013

Hey Brothers and sisters in Christ,
How was your day walking with the Lord?  I had a great day sharing the faith with peeps at school and Ryan prayed to receive Christ.  He was a smaller, dark-complexion guy, stick straight dark-brown-almost-black hair and was raised Roman Catholic.  He seemed very shy and did not make much eye contact, but while we were talking I got him to smile a bit.  He had stopped going to church for no particular reason after junior high.  The Gospel rang true to him though as I was going through it, and he wanted to be forgiven for his sins.  We talked about the forgiveness the priest offered and I explained as I have b4 that the priest was like an insurance agent who, after selling you insurance for your car, did not pay for its repair after an accident, the company paid.  Similarly, the priest did not forgive your sins but offered you the forgiveness God provided in Jesus.  He prayed with me to receive Christ after I talked him through a prayer and asked him if that was, “the desire of his heart”.  I explained the fruit of the Holy Spirit to him and asking for power to live the Christian Life.  He did not have his own Bible at home so I gave him one and a Bible study to read on the Deity of Christ.  His class started then and he slipped inside.

I met with a girl at starbucks today, and chatted her up about school.  And I spent an hour or so chatting up some of the lost kids who sit at a table I roll by, so that was good to get reestablished with a few of them.

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

In Him,
Bob Bollow
