Hey Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

I hope your day was blessed.  It was kinda rainy and a bit colder here.  Not too bad yet as the sun poked through some, and Justin prayed to receive Jesus. Later, Sarah committed to Christ (dressed all in black with wire rimmed glasses, long sandy colored hair and braces on her teeth she wore a black long Starwars T-shirt) saying she would pray later. So I’ll be praying for her, that God might complete a work in her heart and also that Justin would grow in his faith.

Justin was sitting on the third floor of the BIC building. He had really bright red hair and full lips, was an average size guy, had jeans on and a white print shirt.  He was in the hall on some chairs alone.  He went to Catholic school when he was young, but they’d moved and he didn’t seem to be going to church much at present.  Nice guy, humble. I asked him what he would say to God if asked why He should let him into Heaven and he said, “Damn.”  “Don’t say that,” I laughed. “You’ll go to the other place.” He grinned a bit at that and kept thinking on the question, finally saying, “I thought I lived a pretty good life, tried to be helpful to everyone I meet and see [that needs it].”  He thought he’d have about a 50% shot at Heaven.  He was very serious after that, listening to everything I said.  He knew Jesus had died for the sins of the world, but wasn’t trusting in that but rather that he was good enough. He thought he’d want to be forgiven saying, “I believe in Jesus and we’ve all sinned.”  I asked if he’d like to trust in Christ and walked him through the prayer to do so saying he could pray it like I wasn’t there if he wanted.  He thought for a moment and said, “Ah… Yeah.”  I gave him a Bible study on the Deity of Christ and the book 20 Things God Can’t Do. I explained living the Christian life to him and he seemed interested all the way through.  I got up to leave and said “Welcome to the kingdom of God.  There’s an invisible kingdom and you just walked in.”  He seemed to appreciate that.  We shook hands and I left him. I’ll pray the word of God truly takes root.

So thanks for your prayers for the Ministry and Evangelism today if you had a chance. I had a good day encouraging a couple others in Christ too.

In Him,

Bob
