Battle Log

The Battle Log is the place where reports from each of the Operation 513 evangelism teams are posted.

It gives you a brief idea about what occurred during the outreach and some of the highlights.

Even though there is not a report from each team on the Battle Log every week, all these teams do meet according to the schedule (usually weekly).

So please keep them in prayer and consider joining one if it is in your area.

Battle Log of Operation 513 at Sunnybank on Wednesday June 3rd 2026 from 1030-1130

Hurrah, Peace rejoined the Sunnybank team after a long gap year since their family moved from North to south to start a new way of living. It was also a great pleasure to have Ann rejoining us at Sunnybank. Peace asked for prayer to give her boldness after a long break and God answered our prayer to make her a fisher of men having many chats opportunities and even leading to chance of recommending non-beleivers to attend SIC where she is now a regular members. As for me, my focus was initially dragged to keep an eyes on Peace, and let go after she was obviously finding her feet in God's strength. I have conversation with both non-believers, Chrisitians without assurance of salvation and fair dinkum Christians. It was always a joy to serve and live a life on mission with God.

I did a breif outreach at Toowong as I had to rush to a lunch meeting with the Princiapl and Vice Principal of the Chinese Theological College Australia based in Sydney.

I caught up with a mature student from Solomom Island who claimed himseld a Christian. Upon asking the two diagnosis question. He basically have the righ answer to show him having 100$ assurance of salvation becasue of Jesus and His Sacrifsicial death on the cross alone. I manged to take a selfie with him but unfortunately, I might have pressed the wrong button that ending up without the photo taken.

Anyhow, I made several shorter chat becuse of the frequent bus schedule and had sdone for the day earlier toallow me to rush to my aforementioned lunch appointment.

Today, teamed up with Edwin to do street outreach in Sunnybank. Edwin exceptionally had a long chat with a seekers from China who has been affiliating with a Catholic priest. So Edwin spent a long time to brief him the salvation by faith doctrine against the old tradition of Catholic biased teaching.

As for me, had a couple of good and long chat with a Taiwanese student who was approached by our team before. I did a thorough follow up recap which proved to be very useful for that guy to understand it is a common need of each and very one of this fallen human races. That Jesus is the only one to make us perfect again meaning our record of sins has been set to zero the moment we accepted Him as our Savior. Then I had another long chat with a Chinese face Filipino of Catholic background. He also failed the assurance of salvation test but was glad to have it clarified giving me a thumb up for my explanation. There were many more shorter or scattered chats but still serving God's purpose for that particular persons.

The weather was still unstable, but as usual God stop the rain with a wet ground but Sunshine when I got to Toowong. Today was special for a couple of people from UK that I could conveniently associate with by my extensive UK experience including frequent business trip, family visit to my Sister at Oxford at that time , and finally my one odd year full time study of Master if Information System at UMIST Manchester. Actually I was led to Christ in Manchester in 1990. So, chatting with people from UK helped me build quick rapport with them.

First was an UQ student from Essex county, he is a non-believer yet he believes in God, but falling short ti comprehend the concept of triune god. He actually has extensive study of Bible, my chat with him apart from sharing first the gospel that all human needs Jesus at long as we admit we are not perfect. He is a genuine seekers having a list of question from hus bible reading. I thanks God to help him clarified many biblical questions. He from all angle would soon be ready to accept Jesus as his savor.

The other guy was in total opposite, a guy from Wales but of African background, who grew up i na background of abuse and chaos. He deems all religious are humanly founded full of corruption as such he bluntly reject to ket me share gospel with him. I anyway still was moved to connect as a equal human being counter part to exchange life experiences. God is good and he is always in control.

The weather turned sunny finally. It was an amazing outreach. For the first time ,God moved a Chinese Girl to approach me while I had just started sharing with another Vietnamese girl sitting next to her. They do not know each other. But the Chinese girl was so eager to listen on while I share the gospel with the Vietnamese girl. It was a pity she had to leave first. As for the Vietnamese girl, she said she is now studying the Bible by her self, a sincere seekers. I shared 90 % just falling short of the final wrap up when her bus arrived. She genuinely wish to meet me next week and let pray for this to happen.

OI also approached a couples others who wer all open and receptive. Praise be to the Lord

It was an overcast day with intermittent scattered rain. Yet as usual, I was well protected under God's promise to be with me whenever I set oof to serve him as such, God closed the window of the sky withholding rain throughout the whole time I was serving on the street and even covering my lap swimming afterwards.

Two chats stood out. It were with an Australian born Indonesian cross breed and with a Thailand student with Indian blood. Both are non-Christians possibly muslim and Buddhist respectively, but both were open and receptive to the gospel especially the way i approach the issue of the gospel that as long as we all admit no one including ourselves are perfect, then by definition, we all have been disqualified to regain the citizenship of the heavenly kingdom. Only way is to rely on a perfect person which can only be Jesus to take our place to received the eternal death punishment. The moment we accepted Jesus as Savior, our sins are pardoned and set to zero making us a perfect and new creation to be qualified immediately to be reaccepted into His Kingdom.

God is good and is gracious to elect non-believers of other religions to be attracted to Jesus.

The message of one of the LCD screen "Own the Unknown" also resonate with God's way to move those non-believers to "own the unknown."

Hurrah, we had got the biggest team since pandemic at Sunnybank with 4 people from Joce Meyer Minisatry team and from SM Kairos team with Edwin and me. Ann may have come but the rain might have prevented her to cross over the pedestrian bridge to come to our side. Also the Great Commision Church folk originally planned to come but did not turn up. No matter what 6 or 7 serving as one body in Christ is something we can celebrate and praise with thanks giving.

Errol is the first timer to Sunnybank, or even for street outreach. We prayed and encouraged him to take the first step of faith to make an approach to anyone around. He actually had a very good start, making good connection and having some chat. I was moved to back him up to do follow up chat with some he approached. His first timer status to share gopel to stranger boldly really impressed some of the gospel targets. So, it is the life witnessing power apart from proclaming by words.

It was yet again a team effort of street outreach full of grace and power bestowed on each and every one of us who did His work.

After two weeks of rest because of other important commitment, I resume the normal weekly outreach ministry at Toowong. Hope John will rejoin me soon after he has just finished his cross oceans cruise ship tours.

I have got three full chat divine appointments with young non-believer man from USA, than a local Aussie Christian and an Australian born India of different attitude and response. The one from USA, might have been affected by the general leftist mindset that have seriously poisoned the younger generation of USA, appear indifference to the gospel though still with politeness to let me finish the entire sharing. Then the local Aussie Christian, a very warm welcoming character to have interactive chat with me, was found not having 100% assurance of salvation but was clarified with appreciation. Last but not the least. The ABI though claimed to be of Hinduism family heritage, appear most open and receptive to the gospel and affirm that every one including himself need Jesus. Earthly region is just a sort fo cultural expression to divine creator being and all he needs to do is to accept Jesus as his personal savior. God will guide his way to live a born again Christian life with many Indian Christian Church around.

I skipped Toowong Outreach for 2 consecutive Tuesday due to Ad hoc priority business. I anyway resumed my regular street outreach today but alone, Edwin was not available and Ann turned up but did not come over to join me on the northbound side of the public bus stop. I had chances to chat with ABC of Taiwan origin, another Mainlander student with Christian affiliation, a Poland born local Australian young man of no faith, a homeless people and finally an Afghanistan young Muslin but was open enough to hear the gospel knowing Jessus is not just a prophet but the only Savior of the world.

So basically, it was a day of gospel proclamation to the non-believers with mixed but positive result

Battle Log of Operation 513 at Sunnybank on Wednesday April 29th 2026 from 1030-1130

After a fully loaded yesterday conducting the funeral and burial service for brother Ivano with the prominent presence of God opening way for us to have good weather throughout till even we finish the picnic for kins after the burial at Redcliffe. I woke up with slight headache perhaps because of the generally high tension mood yesterday, but felt all good for my regular street outreach at Sunnybank. Ann joined me later so, I was all alone initially. God made divine appointment for me to meet a young guy from Uzbekistan who is of Muslim background. Perhaps he was taught to challenge the Christian doctrine of salvation by grace thru faith that they deems it a cheap way to get save by simply accepting Jesus, so they thought it only means you have got an immunity to death as such you can feel free to sin. I simply pointed out to him, if you keep sinningi intentionally after your are saved, it shows that you have never had a repentant heart to really trust Jesus for your salvation reflected by your lack of a graceful heart to stop sinning intentionally but submit to the Holy Spirit to let your life be transformed back to perfection. I still pray for this first time Uzbekistan person.

Another high light was the catching up with Richard an Indian Christian born from a Christian family with legacy retracing back to Thomas the disciple of Jesus. He rarely shows full correct understanding of salvation. I took the chance to ask about his church which to my delight is an indigenous Indian Orthodox church that I can introduce it to Sam the Baptist Missionary in Brisbane. God is good finally helping me to locate such orthodox Indian Christian community here in Brisbane.
