New Seed Sowers & Heckler

The exciting part to me was that we had (3) new seed sowers. They had attended the Feb. seminar on how to reach the lost using God’s Ten Commandments. 

Wayne, who says he is 87, and being a Christian for over 50 years, was excited as he started to hand out the Million Dollar Gospel tracts to those who passed by him. Catherine had explained it just like fishing, sometimes you get a bite and many times you don’t, but at least you are being obedient to our Lord by given out God’s Word to those who may never hear it.  

Then Vittoria became involved as well. As she claimed how all the years of claiming Christ as her Lord she never shared with strangers. As with everything we do in life we must practice to learn how to make it easier and here’s the big one, “More Comfortable”

Then we had Linda,  this was her 2nd time on Mill with us. You should hear how excited she was to be there and listen to her tell us how during the week she was able to give away more Gospel tracts. As she too has been born again for years and has been frustrated that she hasn’t been able to share with those she meets on a regular basis. She told us how she gave one to her Doctor which was the first time she did something like that and was excited about it and know wanted to do even more.  

There was a guy in a cowboy hat singing on Mill Ave where we usually set up. So, we set up our stuff nearby and I did some Open Air (OA), giving away glow sticks to people who would take the Good Person Test (GPT).

 This man for whatever reason decided to accuse me of horrendous crimes against women and using vulgarity to accentuate his point through his loud speaker that he was using when he was singing. I have learned to ignore those who speak with demonic possession, and focus on the ones who are in front of me who want to take the Good Person Test. By the way, this is a great way to draw a larger crowd as those who hear that kind of rhetoric are curious and stop to listen.

 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. (Mat. 12:36)

Here's a 2-4r

This is the first time I have ever done a blog. I am so excited that I can post what happened. Catherine Fusco

Last Saturday Evening, when I was in Tempe, as Tom was doing open air to draw a crowd, several people gathered around him to take the good person test. One of them who was a professing atheist kept trying to interrupt him. Then he started cursing and Tom told him to stop, and if he didn’t, he could no longer speak. Being I was standing next to Tom then he turned to me.

It’s amazing, how Tom stops people from swearing. To see the Holy Spirit work thru him, they become mute and stop!

While I was speaking to the atheist, trying to tell him the opposite of what he was saying, he was like a stone. As I tried to help him understand why he needed Jesus, he would immediately come back with a rebuttal.  He was very gentle with me and cursed once and immediately apologized (I thank Tom for that).

He also brought up that God was responsible for all the mass murders that have been committed over the years. I wish I had seen him this weekend, because I got a message of what to say last weekend. Our Pastor at Shiloh made this statement on Sunday: “Atheist are the ones that cause all the mass murders”. Then he tried to tell me that it wasn’t Jesus that I needed, it was all me. After going back and forth for a while, his so called “Baptist” raunchy girl friend pulled him away. Even as he was being pulled away, he KEPT trying to convince me that it wasn’t Jesus.

So it seems to me, that what Tom has learned from Ray Comfort and the Scriptures, that it doesn’t make sense to ARGUE or use apologetics about our faith. These two verses indicate that fact from the Bible.

"Do not give dogs what is holy, and do not throw your pearls before pigs, lest they trample them underfoot and turn to attack you. (Matthew 7:6)

And of course this one.

 "God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble." (James 4:6)

THEN THERE WAS FRIDAY NIGHT AT THE ART FAIR

Friday night was exciting, but I must tell you this. I was involved in what I was doing and lost track of time. Tom came to me and if I was going tonight. My first response was that I was clearing up my desk area. As you priorities were wrong. Tom mentioned I could clear the desk off later and the Holy Spirit convicted me to go. I actually love Friday night and after learning from my Jonah Bible study about Divine Interventions, that’s exactly what this was.

 

This night there were more people that wanted to talk to Tom than I had ever seen before. It was an EXPLOSION! There must have been FIFTY or more listening to him and interacting him. Tom was on a box and using a loud speaker so that anyone who passed by could hear what he was saying. So many people wanted to ask HIM questions. 

It’s amazing how many people want a free Glow Stick and are willing to take the “Good Person Test” by using God’s Ten Commandments. You know, ever Lied, Stolen, used God’s name in vain or lusted after another person, even after hearing it from the ones before them. 

What the public seems to believe in is unbelievable! 

• One man stated he was raised as a Messianic Jew and now claims to be a Transgender.
• Another man stated he worked at the Roman Catholic Church and when asked if he had ever lied, stolen or had lust in his heart, he answered yes. Then when asked what would people call you who do that, he said, “I’m a beautiful person.” He then stated, “In God’s eyes everyone is a beautiful person”. I then asked, “Does that mean rapists, murderers and child pedophiles will all be in heaven, even the likes of Adolf Hitler and Saddam Hussein?” His answer was shocking. “YES, everyone is going to heaven. We are all Beautiful People.”     

So maybe this is because of the man-centered-gospel message!

“GOD LOVES YOU AND HAS A WONDERFUL PLAN FOR YOU LIFE!” 

Here are some verses of what the Bible says about those who are chosen:

"Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be rooted up. (Matthew 15:13) 

For many are called, but few are chosen." (Matthew 22:14)

Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.  (John 3:18) 

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
