Saturday Night on Mill Ave in Tempe AZ

This was another Glorious night for our Lord and Savior Jesus the Christ!  Those who claim Christ as Lord left the comfort of their homes like He did, to reach out to the lost. AL, Alan, Daniel, Marcus and Ronnie, came out to the streets of Tempe to hand out 100's of Gospel Tracts to hundreds who walk up and down Mill Ave all night looking for who knows what.

As you can see in the picture that Al took, many will stop by to get a free Glow-Stick as they think they can pass the Good Person Test. Most men will proclaim each his own goodness, (Pro 20:6 NKJV)

If you can see I'm actually laughing as most of the times those who stop tend to make it an enjoyable evening. The man with his back to you is taking the test. But you can see how the others are listening. That's the point! I pray that you see that. It's not just talking to one person about what they need to do to be saved; it's talking to several people at one time. What a blessing to be able to do as He did,  by drawing a crowd to hear this life saving eternal message.
 
The man on your left had claimed to be a “Christian”. You can see him pointing his finger at me and shouting at me to say: "That I needed to tell them, that Jesus was re-incarnated like all of us will be. (YUK)
This is where you need to be careful, as to whom you identify yourself with, as the Lord Himself stated in (Mat. 7:23) and then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'
 
The others on the right came a little latter to hear what was going on. So the crowd doesn't happen all at once, sometimes it does, but just being elevated and speaking to those in front of you draws interest from others who are walking by.
 
I pray that those who are reading this and have been through one of the many seminars over the last (7) years, consider doing the Lord's work and come again to the street, even if just once a month. Jesus told His disciples in (Luke 10:2) Therefore, " The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few: pray to the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth laborers into his harvest.
 
This man in front of me when asked if he had every lied, stolen, or lusted, stated that he was Muslim and those laws are black and white and there could be a lot of gray area's to consider before they are answered. That's when he said, “this sounds like a lot of the religious people who want to make there own rules”
 
 I then explained to him that he was now breaking the 2nd of the Ten Commandments as we are not to have any idols. Mankind has done that from the beginning. They create a god that agrees with them so that whatever they do is okay with that god, but the True God, the Righteous God and the Just God must punish the liars, thieves, fornicator’s idolaters as His Wrath is upon those who do. (John 3:18)
 
 Here's the verse that states it, check it out for yourself, I didn’t make it up.  (1Co 6:9-10) Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortionist will inherit the kingdom of God.
 
Another one of the encounters last night was with Marcus and I as a young man took one of my Cell Phone Texting tracts, and wanted to know why we were handing them out.

Click on the tract to get a better view, or if you would like to purchase some.

 

I explained that we were here to help others understand what there final destination could possible be, and how they were going to be judged.
 
That’s when he stated he grew up in a Pentecostal church, and knew Jesus! That's when I asked, "oh so you inherited the Kingdom of god, just as a prince would inherit the throne?" He agreed.
 
We could tell he had plenty to drink. He told us that right now he was NOT being obedient to God, but if God wanted him to change then God would make it happen. Marcus challenged him with if he knew that he would die tomorrow would he right now repent and place his trust in Jesus Christ alone for the forgiveness of his sins?
 
He got very serious at that point and you could see his conscience working on him as he tilted his head back rolling his eyes as if looking for an apt answer, and finally stated, “That he would not!  He was not ready to give up having fun with his friends and the girls he's been involved with.
 
I then gave him the verse that came to me and that he was to stop blaming God as he now knows s the truth and is rejecting it.
“For the sorrow that is according to the will of God produces repentance without regret, leading to salvation, but the sorrow of the world produces death.” 2Co 7:10
 
Here is a few of the several verses that Jesus Himself states that you may want to read about Repentance:

Luk_5:32
"I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance."
Luk_15:7
"I tell you that in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.
Luk_24:47
And that repentance for forgiveness of sins would be proclaimed in His name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem.
 
I then explained what is stated in (Eph 2:8-9)
 “For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast.”
 
Now he started to walk away telling us he had to catch up with his friends and thanked us for taking the time to explain to him why we were there.

As he was leaving I gave another one of our Gospel Tracts, which he took, “Are You Good Enough To Go to Heaven”
