Battle Log of Operation 513 at Sunnybank on Wednesday Dec 11th, 2024 from 1330-1430

Despite of continuous adverse weather situation, the regular four Street Outreach gospel warrior Johnny, Ann, Edwin and Hung still turned up to exercise our due diligent to preach the gospel irrespective of external environment. But the weather did turn very rough with storm and hail looming, Johnny made the call to finish half and our earlier to let every one drive home safely. Thus with a short period, I only recorded five gospel conversations but all are long and meaningful communication as recap below:-

1) First I was led to approach a Local Aussie girl who moved her stuff to spare space welcoming me to have a chat. I started with the Merry Christmas gag that successfully drawn her attention to Jesus as the reason for the season, And that His birth brought along "Merry" an ancient English word to symbolize a kind of power that are capable to transform our life setting free from the bondage of sin. She is not religious, but it was a more lively way to challenge her to face the real meaning of Christmas.

2) Then I was attracted to a mother with her grown up daughter that first was approached by Edwin. He was misled by them that they are readily church going Christian thus no need for the gospel. I was moved anyway to take up from there to test their assurance of salvation. But I was surprised to find out that they are non-believers and at best be called seekers. So I anyway share the mum full gospel with the daughter not paying full attention by her side.

3) Next I was led to approach an Indian middle age man who migrated to Australia at early childhood age. He was friendly and found the real meaning of "merry Christmas" interesting. He is non Christian, but are familiar with some of the Christmas related facts. So he appeared completely open and receptive to the gospel building on the new understanding of Merry being power brought by Jesus' birth.

4) Then I had a long chat with a Catholic background Filipino. He typically have no assurance of salvation but as low as only a mere 20% level. But after clarification, he happily acknowledge he should have 100% assurance that because of Jesus' sacrificial death he readily has received the free gift of eternally life from Jesus and on this basis, God is determined to further transform his life back to 100% purity. He joyously took a selfie with me.

5) Then we encountered a PNG family of 3 with Mum and 1 grown up son and a younger sister. Johnny approached the adult son first and passed him all the gospel tract. I was moved to take on to check his assurance of salvation which is correctly 100% but he failed to account for the reason why. Anyway, God moved me to share a long time with him enriching and deepening his understand of the Bible about Jesus, His earthly ministry and His mission to kick off the long planned Dual Kingdom & Salvation Project as per Gen3:15b. He also merrily took a selfie with me.
