Young Visitors at ASU

Watch as these youngsters get to hear something that they did not anticipate!

180Movie Project

Today was the day that Ray Comfort from the Way  of The Master chose to have those who are laborers for the Lord go on the attack and confront 300 thousand college students across the USA, by offering them a free 180movie.com DVD, showing a comparison of the Holocaust in Nazi Germany and the Holocaust of abortion in the USA. On the Campus of ASU 20 of us showed up to do our part by coming together to Glorify God by actively confronting the students, faculty, and janitors who passed us by. With all of us spread all over the campus, we were able to give away about 3000 of these DVDs.

 1828 Websters Dictionary states confrontation as: The act of bringing two persons into the presence of each other for examination and discovery of truth. In today's culture with worrying about not offending anyone, I wonder how many of you would apply that definition in your life?

One of our sowers David told us how a security guard told him that someone complained that they felt that the way it was being offered was to pushy. By this time we had been there for about 2 hrs.so they probably new what the DVD contained and wanted to find a way to stop us from handing them out. The guard then told him that several of them were being stacked up on tables in the cafeteria. He was nice enough to ask David if he would like to have them and that he would get them for him.

When he came out of the cafeteria, with a pile of them in his hands, I noticed  David was busy sharing with someone else so,  I went  over to him to thank him for being so kind, going out of his way to help us.  

 I then asked if he would like one but he refused. I then said to him how would
 he know what they were complaining about if he himself hadn't seen what was on the DVD? Wouldn't it be wise for him to know? With that he responded, "good point,"  took one and said, " thank you" .
 

Now comes the part that only the Lord could have ordained!

All 20 of us gathered at the large fountain to see if all the DVDs had been given away.  

This section has a restaurant, music and tables that the students put up to display whatever they want.

I noticed a very young group of kids about 20 of them, probably from 10-13 years old , all wearing the same colored shirts, and a few middle aged guys wearing the same. I walked up to one man and asked if I could show his kids an illusion? 

That's when I showed them that I could make a coin appear from thin air. I told them not to believe it as it's a trick, an illusion and they should examine what they see, as their eyes could fool them. I told them it was a commemorative coin, with the Ten Commandments on one side and the Gospel of Jesus Christ on the other. With that statement they all shouted," can I have it! " This is not unusual, because 99% of the time I get a similar reaction. Think about it, another way of reaching the lost! Contact me and I'll teach you how to do it.

I gave it to the one who I thought was the most excited, as most of them raised their hands as well. I then asked if they knew the Commandments? Now there was silence.

That's when I asked for help from my team to come and record this, as I knew the Lord had brought me here to boldly speak about His Righteousness and Grace, and it would be through these children that I would have the platform at this campus to do just that! 

Friday Night at Phoenix Art Fair

1. I  pray that you read this to the end
2. I pray that you ask the Lord on High to keep us humble
3. I pray that He continues to encourage us to GO speak to strangers who may be lost on the streets.
4. I pray that what the Holy Spirit has done in us that you ask Him to do to you as well

Wow, what can I say about Friday night!!! The Lord has shown us a place, just like in Luke 10:2, where the harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few. But praise God and the Holy Spirit, that last night His prayers are being answered. Again this was an awesome night for the Lord as 100's of Gospel tracts were handed out. Alan, Erwin, Mike, Philip, Steve, and a couple Brandt and Haley, and another couple Jeremy and Tish and their son Joshua, and another couple Marcus and Kat and Alex. How pleased the Lord must be to see all of His chosen in the family going out to reach the lost.

Here are a few of us who went out to eat afterwards to relax and fellowship, at 2am.

These sowers all showed up with one thought in mind, to intentionally confront those who passed by so that they my have the opportunity to witness to those who may be lost. By offering them these Gospel tracts that ask are they "Good Enough To Get Into Heaven", they are being proactive.  Remember Jesus didn't wait for others to come to Him, He went out into the streets to reach them...shouldn't we be doing the same if we claim to be a follower?

By using His Ten Commandments we can be assured that it's the Word of God being professed and not a man centered watered down comment that God is love and Jesus wants them to have a wonderful plan for their life!

Charles Spurgeon stated: "I do not believe that any man can preach the gospel who does not preach Law. The Law is the needle, and you cannot draw the silken thread of the gospel through a man's heart until you first send the Law to make way for it."

He was called the Prince of Preachers maybe we should heed what he says?

Paul states in (Rom 10:17) So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.

I pray that some of you, this includes those in leadership as well, give up just 2 hours one Friday night a month to come out and see what the Lord is doing on the streets. Or how about make a commitment just for every other month, you know like when you commit to attending a Bible study. Is that too much to ask to do for the One who sacrificed His life so that you could have eternal life?

He commanded us to GO and share! (Mark 16:15), in (Acts 1: 8),(Acts 10:42)  to be His witness. He died not so that we would have a better life, but He died a horrible death to pay the fine for the crimes that you and I and others committed, like lying, stealing, blaspheming, lust to name a few.

His resurrection from the dead 3 days later proved He was God and He warned us that we need to REPENT or PERISH. (Luke 13:3-5)

He performed miracles that drew a crowd to hear His message, we give away these glow-sticks, it draws a crowd and that crowd gets a chance to hear the truth. The glow-sticks are a big hit! It is a non stop request to get one. I can't explain why they desire them but you'll have to come and see for  yourself.

You should hear what those on the street say to us when we ask them if they are Good.

It's sad when you hear someone profess to be a Christian and then get offended because you explain what the Bible says about Law breakers. Or to have some Gay people tell you that God is Love and as long as you love, then God is pleased, even if that love is with the same sex partner.

One would have to ask why would someone who professes to being a liar, thief, and an adulterer at heart be offended that a Holy God must punish that person. Didn't the Bible say that Jesus came for the sick and not the righteous? So why get offended? That would be making the statement that you one of the righteous wouldn't it?

So I'll end with another prayer request, the one Jesus ask for us to do for Him, (Luke 10:2)

"The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest."
