This Saturday was another Day for the Lord!
Give thanks for Al, Alan, Leigh, Joe and Doug on Mill Ave. Looks like the Sowers of God's word is growing, Praise the Lord! Later on Marcus, Phil and Walter showed up. Satan and his demons didn't stand a chance this night!
Al and I started out with our light show, where we use red lights attached to our finger and pretend to toss them back and forth to each other. To our surprise this drew a group of people to stop and watch. First was Michael, his wife and two children.
The young boy had on red shorts so I approached him and gave the illusion that I was removing a red light form his paints. After explaining this was an illusion and how our eyes can fool us we were able to ask them about violating God's Law the Ten Commandments. The father, Micheal didn't participate as much as his wife did, but when we were finished his demeanor changed and he thanked us for sharing with him and his family.
A few minutes later Theodora, Peter and Gelly and a few friends stopped for the lights also. They were Greek Orthodox. Again by using the Law it helped them understand that their religion was not what was going to save them from the wrath of God. (Gal. 3:24)
What amazes me is that with this method you can share with anyone, anywhere and it only takes about 5 minutes. We gave them several tracts and the booklet from Ray Comfort , "Save yourself some PAIN." They were very grateful for us taking the time to share with them.
Watch as Al shares with three young guys - Gens, Gordon and Corey. First he draws them with trivia questions and a chance to win some money. He now has their attention and can go from the intellect to their conscience. CON-SCIENCE: Con is with and SCIENCE is knowledge. By speaking to their conscience he can now reach the part that needs to be addressed and by doing this it eliminates (as Ray Comfort pointed out) intellectual arguments. This is what Jesus did in (Luke 18:20) to the rich young ruler. So I ask you, "if Jesus used this approach why shouldn't anyone who calls himself a follower of Jesus Christ,do the same?"
Below I'm talking to young man named Chis, who was brought up Catholic and now is hearing the truth about salvation and is thankful for hearing it. He was with his girlfriend when we started but she tried to pull him away stating that she was, " LEAVING!" Much to my surprise he stayed! Remember he was now admitting that he was a liar, thief, blasphemery, and an adultererat heart, as Jesus explained to us that if you just look at another person with lust you have committed adultery in your heart! (Mat 5:28) He now realized he was headed for Hell! Anyone would have thought he would have followed his girlfriend. I believe the Holy Spirit was holding him there so that he would get the glorious message of what he needed to do to become a child of God... Repent and Trust in Jesus Christ alone! (Luke 13:3)

Wow that was awesome how the guy name Chris listened!!
Jean Di.
I couldn't believe that Chris stayed - he already had the money in his hand and his girlfriend was pulling him away, it was the perfect time to escape.
Yet, he stayed even longer than the video showed, and talked with Joe for a while after that.
You left him some serious thoughts to consider.
Hey Tom
Good stuff! I'm encouraged by your sharing this.
I want to take more time to watch all the videos (I think my computer or internet is slow tonight!)
I like that you guys are recording a little vid and putting up - just a minute or 2, so others can see the expressions of those hearing the Gospel (good or defensive) shows us it's not too scary :-) and the Holy Spirit at work.
Blessings,
Christy
