This site is primarily to help others learn how easy it is to share the Gospel. Jesus used the Ten Commandments in Luke 18:18 when the rich ruler asked what he must do to get into Heaven.
Also by using these innovative and acceptable tracts from "The Way of The Master", by Ray Comfort and Kirk Cameron, you get the opportunity to get the Word of God into the hands of the lost.

A BLESSING FROM THE LORD ON 1ST FRIDAY

You know that verse (Luke 10:2, Mat. 9:37,38)  And he said to them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.

Well last night the Lord was at work! Those who claim to be followers of Jesus Christ did just that, came out to the streets of 3rd and Roosevelt and being led by the Holy Spirit stepped up on a stool and challenged those hundreds who were passing by with getting a free gift, either money or a glow-stick, if they could prove that there were a Good Person. These ordinary people overcame their fear of rejection from others and instead placed their trust in the Only One who matters, The Lord Jesus Christ. In Phil. 4:13 Paul states what we can do through the One who paid the horrific penalty by willfully giving up His life for those He loved, could we not give up our time to serve Him as He told us to, by going out from the buildings and into the streets where the lost are to warn them of the dangers of Hell. (Mark 16:15, Acts 1:8)


Here are some of the names of those I know who came because they were led by the Holy Spirit to leave the comfort of their homes and face the crowds on the street. Al, Alan, Brandt and his wife Haley, Keith who brought his children Sam and Kate, Patrick and his wife Vivi brought their young son, Joey, and several people from his church, Joe, Steve, and  my lovely wife Catherine.

What was exciting to me was to see several of the sowers stand up on the box, this was the first time for Patrick, with microphone in hand and using the glow-sticks as a free giveaway to draw a crowd to take the Good Person test. Patrick told me he is being challenged to speak to more than just the one person at a time,  but to a larger group and tonight was going to be his night. He told me how frightened he was up until the moment he got up on the box and then the fear was gone. I had shared with him many times as that was exactly how I felt right before I had done my first one... praise the Lord for Patrick placing his trust in Jesus for his protection up on that scary box. Al, Brandt & Keith also went up to draw a crowd.

One of the encounters I had was with you two young ladies, Theresa and Tori. When they admitted that they had lied, stolen and used God's name as a swear word, I asked how would God find them using those commandments, innocent or guilty. They answered quickly innocent, that God would forgive them, as He forgives all of us, if we ask.That's when they needed to hear how a Holy, Just & Righteous God could not forgive them based on just asking as anyone who is caught in the act of a crime would do the same and a good judge would still have to make them pay the fine or do the time. Now they started to understand that that wasn't going get them set free and finally admitted that would be guilty and sent to Hell, and rightly so. Now comes the best part, as now they where concerned of where they could be headed and didn't like the direction. After explaining what Hell was like, as I find very few people even church people have any clue how the Bible describes it. These two young ladies were now at a place where the Lord through the Holy Spirit could do what needs to be done. That is to break the hardness of the heart to where they admit they don't deserve to be forgiven for being Law breakers. (James 4:6)  Therefore He says: "GOD RESISTS THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE."

 I wish I had the camera rolling on this one, as now I could see tears rolling down their checks as I asked  if they knew what God had done for them so that they wouldn't have to go to Hell.  They said they didn't even have a clue! Now I explained what Jesus did for me and them on that Cross, and how in (Eph 2:8)  For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.

It's a gift from God! It's His Grace! NOTHING ..., we can do can save us!  He did it ALL.
They needed  to have Godly sorrow, repent and place their trust in Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of their sins and when that happens their slate would be wiped clean, now an adopted child into the Kingdom of  Heaven. (Eph. 1:5)

(Luke 5:32)  I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance ."
(Luke 24:47)  and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
(Luke 15:7)  I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance.

So looks like last night there was more JOY in Heaven than the night before.
