Subject: The laws of the bible in todays world |
Bible Note: Hi Juls and everyone, May our LORD and Master Jesus Christ be with us all. Witnessing to unbelievers is a spiritual battle. It is not a war with flesh and blood or doctrine. It’s the name of our LORD and Master Jesus Christ that sets them free. To Tim -- The Holy Spirit is definitely in Unity. The Holy Spirit of our LORD Jesus Christ doesn’t contradict how He works even here in the United Kingdom. All sinners are saved the same way in the four corners of the earth by simply telling them what our LORD Jesus Christ (GOD Almighty in the flesh) has done for them, you and me. Our LORD Jesus Christ spoke through Hank this answers are all in the bible has Hank mentioned; 'Paul first preached Christ and Him crucified to sinners. Later he touched on matters such as moral conduct and doctrine to the redeemed of Christ's church' I experienced this first hand and it brought tears to both my eyes and soul for days. But I thank GOD almighty through His Holy Spirit for revealing the truth to me. This happened 2 weeks ago. I usually pray in an unused room at work in a remote part of the building. Every time I went there was a young man (21 yrs) who was there on the phone talking to his girlfriend. I usually just ignore him and carry on just spending time with LORD Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit told me the first time to talk to this young man; I would just ignore the voice and just carry on (thinking to myself what would I say and it would just all lead to trying to prove scripture all the time like it had always been when I try and talk to unbelievers) I ignored it has usual. The 3rd time I saw this same young man I said hello to him and introduced myself and asked his name. While praying the same voice said talk to him about me (me meaning Our LORD Jesus Christ). I ignored it and while I was going I thank Our LORD Jesus Christ for giving me the grace to speak and not think about my fears of trying to convince unbelievers. The first thing that came out of my mouth to the young man was "Do you no Christ and how much our LORD Jesus Christ loves you" He replied in a child like innocent way, "who his this Christ and why does he love me" I then explained to him that Our LORD Jesus Christ loved him and knew about him before he was formed in the womb and all he did for both of us. The young man replied "Is there really someone there or out there who actually cared about him and loved him, that he really surely hopes there is someone like that" I then explained to him that Our LORD Jesus Christ came to save us all and take us back to our real home and I explained to him all he had to do was accept Our LORD Jesus Christ in his life. He replied ‘how would he do that’. That’s when I led him to Our LORD Jesus Christ and told him he his part of heavens family now. He replied to me ‘really, does that mean he will meet this person that loves him so much. I replied we both shall meet him. The young man went away happy and joyful. Since then I have told him to go to a church near his area, buy a bible and directed him to a daily devotional to read everyday. About a week later a I met two different young men again at the same place. I then tried to talk to them about Christ they just bombarded me with questions upon question, which ignorantly I tried to prove by quoting scripture and using practical examples. It all didn’t work. They practically insulted me. The Holy Spirit then reminded me that night that it’s all very simple. It’s not about how much scripture you know (which is relevant, not saying its not) or how good a sermon a pastor preached that day its the NAME and LOVE of Our LORD JESUS CHRIST that set sinners free not us. It made me realise about the young man that received Christ. I didn’t lead him to Our LORD Jesus Christ but the Holy Spirit did and I believe that Our LORD Jesus Christ had predestined that day before He laid the foundation of heaven and earth that young man would be saved that day. It made me realise about myself when I got saved it wasn’t no preaching or sermon that led me to Our LORD Jesus Christ it was the power of the Holy Spirit of Our LORD Jesus Christ, which led me. It was only then that the sermons, the reading of the WORD the preaching all made sense The WORD of Jesus Christ said (cant remember what part of the bible) that the ways of our LORD Jesus Christ surpasses all understanding of man. Another scripture “You have to accept the kingdom of GOD like a child” Hank, Tim -- I agree that when someone is not receptive when you keep your conversation geared and focused towards Our LORD Jesus Christ you should just back off and pray for that soul. Thank you Jesus Christ for everything. gab |
