All the rest

I do not have any pictures of the other lost sinners I talked to. I usually like to take pictures of those that are willing to listen. I was able to talk to some teenage girls who were very polite and were a joy to talk to. One group of kids laughed as I presented the Gospel. Maybe it was their first time to hear a Gospel presentation, even though their claim to church was that they attended a semi-emergent church called Fellowship. This is a huge "church" in Grapevine Texas, that has a lot of problems. One of the major problems that I have encountered is I have not one person I have met that attends that "church" is knowledgeable in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I have asked them if they could explain the Gospel. They have not been able to do so yet. You never know though, one day I hope to meet one.
I did meet a guy from Northwood (forgot his name) who had a pleasing knowledge of the Gospel. I would have been more satisfied if he had used the Law in his explanation to me. It was good to hear him.

Warming up in Southlake

" Do not number your fishes before they are broiled; nor count your converts before you have tested and tried them. This process may make your work somewhat slow; but then, brethren, it will be sure. Do your work steadily and well, so that those who come after you may not have to say that it was far more trouble to them to clear the church of those who ought never to have been admitted than it was to you to admit them. If God enables you to build three thousand bricks into His spiritual temple in one day, you may do it; but Peter has been the only bricklayer who has accomplished that feat up to the present. A lengthy quote by Charles Spurgeon. I hope that Josh and Kathrine you see here have been "broiled." Josh was so excited about what I was telling him and I could hear it in his voice. Josh, if you read this, thank you for talking with me. I heard your willingness to witness to others concerning the gospel. I don't know you personally so I will pray that you do what you say you want to do. You have a lot of potential and an eagerness that will be contagious. Always pray that what you present is Christ centered. Only He has the power to change hearts and minds. The Holy Spirit blows where He wills not where we will. Never, ever be ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

Warm In Southlake and A Lot of People

It was a nice warm night in Southlake to spread the gospel to the perishing. This young man here is my youngest son Caleb. He is taking an interest in helping dad with taking pictures, keeping me loaded with tracts and remembering the names of those I present the gospel. He is so proud to be on dads blog, now he is like is big brother, Daniel. I praise God for all my kids in that they serve Christ, the living and holy God who has life in Himself to rescue us from eternal damnation. Amen!
Look in the background, you can see Jon Speed talking to a couple who may be groping for Christ. Yes I know about the following verse: 10 as it is written, Romans 10-12 "THERE IS NONE RIGHTEOUS, NOT EVEN ONE; 11 THERE IS NONE WHO UNDERSTANDS, THERE IS NONE WHO SEEKS FOR GOD; 12 ALL HAVE TURNED ASIDE, TOGETHER THEY HAVE BECOME USELESS; THERE IS NONE WHO DOES GOOD, THERE IS NOT EVEN ONE." There is a point I don't know when that the Holy Spirit has given enough water for the seeds of life to sprout and take on life. The soil the seed is sprouting in is also a variable too. But we don't manage any of that, the Holy Spirit decides who will know Christ via his changed heart or only know Christ historically. One saves, the other damns. There are two ways to repent: One like the repentance of Judas, and one like the repentance of the thief on the cross. Note: The thief was never baptized and was saved, Judas was baptized and was damned!

Cross Timbers Church Attender

All churches have people inside it's doors from sinners to solid true Christians. Churches, meaning Christ centered. Few anymore are Christ centered. I was out at Southlake tonight and I met Edward at Christ's appointed time. I went to a group of guys 6-8 to give out tracts. Two left right away, others lingered until I started to ask questions then more left until two were left. After a few more questions Edward was the only one who stayed. He and the friend who took off said they attended Cross Timbers in Argyle Texas a church that I once made a visit during the week. My visit there left me wondering who were the Christians. I was there about 30 minutes and saw many people and not one of them asked me if I knew the Gospel or if I was a Christian, or asked why I was there. So while talking to Edward I was not surprised again to find out he didn't know the Gospel.

Thank you Eward for staying, I hope the message of Christ turned your mind toward Him and He has saved you. Edward if you read this I hope you understood the Law of God, the reason He died to pay your debt you could not pay. Edward please read the book of John in the Bible. There you will find the words of life in Christ Jesus. Remember it's His righteousness that we are given so that our sins are forgiven. It's His Law that convicts, and His mercy that allows us to fall at the feet of Jesus to have faith and repent. Cry out to God to save you from His wrath to come and the eternal place of Hell and He will grant you life eternal.

Luk 18:13
"But the tax collector, standing some distance away, was even unwilling to lift up his eyes to heaven, but was beating his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me, the sinner!'
Luk 18:14
"I tell you, this man went to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted."

Delivering The Gospel Is Exciting

Marielle, Kevin, Shawn, Cindy, Bianca Ashley, and you too Oscar :>) Thank you for listening.
Here are some more friends of mine I hope I will meet in Heaven. It was a pleasure to deliver the Gospel of Jesus Christ to each one of you.
I hope you understood that without Christ you are doomed. You are doomed without Christ because their sins can not be cleansed by doing "good things." No matter how many times you confess your sins to a priest, your sins remain. Why? Because the priest is a sinner too! He needs a Savior to wash him white as snow.
I hope you understood that you are Law breakers, transgressors of the Law, the Law of God, the Ten Commandments. And this transgression is deserving of Hell. Rev 21:8 "But for the cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part {will be} in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death."
But, I hope you understood that Christ will cleanse and wash you to make you a new creation in Him (alone). This is the Gospel, the good news of Jesus Christ. All you need to do is repent and have faith in Him alone. Fall at His feet and embrace Him who can destroy both body and soul or give you everlasting life. From dead in trespasses and sin to life. All that is His can be yours. Leave the traditions of men behind and follow Christ.
1Cr 2:11
For who among men knows the {thoughts} of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so the {thoughts} of God no one knows except the Spirit of God.
Remember: If you can't find it in the scriptures it's not what God has said.
In Him Alone!
Sola Christo!

Note: While I was talking, Anthony peeled away and started to talk to my friend John Speed. John as always was ready to answer things pertaining to the "health and wealth gospel." This is a teaching people should run from as fast as they can.

They Might Gain The Whole World

This is Bret, Dillon, Christen, and Addie. Dillon and I have talked a while back with the other guy you can't see hidding behind them. I started to talk to at least six others besides these. Some heard plenty of the Gospel before they left laughing and joking. I the ones left had more to think on by the time we parted. I made sure
again they understood the Gospel even among
the loudness and phone calls and joking to one another. At times you feel like you are wasting your time but, God didn't put that in his word to stop speaking if they arent listening. Just keep talking and maybe at sometime in the future the Holy Spirit will move on one of them and cause them to bow the knee.
Mat 24:38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark...
Always give the Gospel to the perishing.

In Need Of A Savior?

I will not be the judge of anyone, God will. I can only evaluate the fruit dropping from the tree to taste it and touch it. Left to Right is Chrissy, Kourtney, Christina, and K-Jo. They claim to attend church but again, do not know what is meant by knowing the Gospel. This makes it easy for me to determine where to start my presentation; at the beginning! The questions: have you ever lied, have you ever stolen anything, and have you ever comitted adultery is a type of mirror that will show you a better image of the "real you" before a perfect and righteous God who will judge you by His higher standard. K-Jo seemed concerned. I continued with the Grace portion of the Gospel. They seemed to understand that with repentence and faith in Christ alone, God will see them as having Christs righteousness not their own. All their own righteousness is as dung (Phl 3:8 ) to God. After explaining justification, then asking again if they understood what I said, I thanked them as they hopefully thought about the Gospel.

Greg and Kristy

This is Greg and Kristy, wonderful people with a wonderful testimony. Thank you for talking with me Saturday night. Greg leads a Bible study in the Southlake courthouse building! Yes, in a government building at no charge either. Apparently the Mayor of Southlake Andy Wambsganss is a Mayor Andy Wambsganss Christian. After talking to Greg and Kristy, I exhorted him to include the Ten Commandments in his defense or wittness to others concerning the Gospel of our Lord. I think he will. We parted with hugs. Wow! Greg take this back to the church you attend, there aren't many there who know what you're teaching.
Act 2:28
YOU (Lord) HAVE MADE KNOWN TO ME THE WAYS OF LIFE; YOU WILL MAKE ME FULL OF GLADNESS WITH YOUR PRESENCE

Deby All By Yourself

I met Deby sitting by herself. She had to leave but, not before I explained some of the Gospel to her. Deby was confused about all the different religions and beliefs. This gave her the excuse not to attend any church but, to pray at home by herself and in doing so secluding herself from any solid food (doctrine). Deby in all her sincerity has broken the 2nd Commandment, worshipping a god of her own choosing and of course thinking about her conscience accusing or defending her in light of the 10 Commandments. She knew before long that there was only one place that she could read about the 10 Commandments; the true scriptures of our living God. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I hope this helps to narrow down the confusion.
2nd Commandment: You shall not make for yourself a carved image--any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
