On Saturday, it was rainy and quite windy at times but by God has faithfully sent us around 8 labourers to share the gospel to the lost souls. As it was cloudy and there was high chance of possible rain we decided to skip open air preaching. By God's grace, we had many interesting chats with non-believers.
Our first chat for the night was with a couple who were surprisingly humble and receptive we started with casual chat and when we question them about their thoughts on eternity they seemed bit surprised by the question. Their names were Josh and Steph.
They gave answers that were quite common such as 'becoming a dust and hoping to get to somewhere good'. They were not atheist but more agnostic so we share simple analogy about why creation is true and they seemed enlightened with the analogies that builder has to exist as we see the buildings and painter has to exist for beautiful painting to be painted. As we moved to conversation to the law of God, they were laughing and smiling as they were realising that according to the law of God they were not only bad person but worse than that but as gospel was shared in the light of the law of God they started to see the need of Jesus Christ and they took it seriously. We urged them to turn away from their sins and believe in Jesus Christ. please pray for Steph and Josh as you read this report.
From Daniel Supek :-
There was a Muslim who I had a chat too that claimed he was going to heaven by his good works and he can never know when the good works would be enough. I asked him whether he believes Allah is perfect, he replied yes. Then I asked him does he believe he is a sinner, he replied, yes. So I asked him, how can Allah who is perfect allow a sinner into heaven by his sinful good works? He couldn't answer the question. I proceeded to tell him, in Christianity we don't go to heaven by good works, but by faith.
It's because of Christ's sacrifice upon the cross. I told him it's what's called double transfer (or double imputation) that on the cross Christ who is true man and true God, took your sin and was punished for it, God's wrath was poured out on Him, it pleased the Lord to crush Him (Isaiah 53). We also, see the love of God at the cross that Christ took your place. So Christ took your sin and if you truly repent of sin and trust in Christ alone you are given Christ's perfect robe by faith and go to heaven by what He has done, your sins are forgiven, your sin debt has been paid for, one that you cannot pay, since you are in debt I told him. I asked him do you understand? Does this make sense? He replied yes, I understand a little bit better what Christianity is about. Please pray for him 
From Huy Do :-
In the morning, I had watched one of the episodes of “way of the Master”, during which the guest spoke about her evangelistic encounter with a man and a woman with a dog named “Zoey” and asked about the name of the dog, which is translated as “life” from the Greek. In the same day, on the evening, I encountered a young lady with the small flipchart, I asked if I could ask a few questions, she agreed. I asked about her name, she said that it was Zoey, I asked if she knew what it meant, she said she is Greek Orthodox so she knew that it meant “life”, to which I showed her the cover of the flipchart “what happens after life?”, and the conversation started. She was very attentive and listened, she understood the Gospel, please pray the Lord would change her heart.
Soli Deo Gloria for the great things that God has done !!!
