Battle Log of Operation 513 for Sunnybank on Wednesday August 10t, 2022 from 1300 – 1500

Today is Ekka Public Holiday as well as family day, Johnny and Amy were all not available. Joe Chai also not able to come because of family member having got Covid-positive. By the grace of God Gary instead can come so just the two of us team up for the Ekka holiday outreach. There were apparently less people flow and the bus came very frequently and quickly to bring people to the City then Ekka as such majority of the gospel chat were incomplete. It ended up as if it was only a tract handling out day. Recap below is my Battle Log: -

1) Lady Poon from Hong Kong, just managed to share the nutshell of the gospel and jumping to the conclusion of everyone needs Jesus as our saviour.

2) Taiwan Christian couples, only time for a tract.

3) A young man Chen陳 from Chengdu, Sichuan 四川成都 whom I can identify very well because of my earthquake ministry there in 2008. His girlfriend was indifferent. 女友冷漠 But Chen appeared interested and listen seriously and took a tract when the bus arrived.

4) Two young men one from HKG, a Christian and one from On Fei安徽, a non-believer. He was humble to listen but was interrupted by a phone call and the HKG friend kept chatting a shot while with me but was forced to end our conversation when the bus arrived.

5) A mature young lady by the surname Chen 陳who is from Hubei 湖北and was interested to listen to the Gospel yet the bus again came very quickly.

6) A Taiwanese 台灣couple, members of Formosa Church台福 claimed to be all Christians in the family.一家信主 Yet she has no assurance of salvation 不淸楚救恩and even no idea about the mission and work of J us. At least managed to clarify the meaning of salvation and helped the old lady to establish assurance of salvation.

7) Another young man from Nanchong of Jiangxi.江西南昌. He was very interested to gospel感興趣, yet bus came and grasp him away.

8 ) A Chinese descendant Indonesia 印尼lady claimed to have listened to the Bible and gone to church but still yet to be a Christian. 聴及去教會

9) Then I caught up with an Malaysian Chinese馬華in KL. Just only have time for quick key point message on the tract.

10) A very self-righteous lady prevented me to share with her friend非常自義的婦人，攔截朋友信主

11) Met a Nepal male but his bus just come right on time, bus came

12) A Local Aussie old man appreciative of our work but not clear about the gospel and salvation.

13) An Iraqi who was bad in English as such hard to chat but finally took the tract.

14) A Kiwi boy Having been just convicted of juvenile offence but was willing to chat and admitted he is not perfect. The bus came and he took a tract to go.

Battle Log of Operation 513 for Sunnybank on Wednesday August 3rd, 2022 from 1300 – 1500
It was yet another fine weather afternoon good for open air outreach. It was sorry to have two regular members kept absent because of illness of self and family members. But God gave Johnny and Hung a surprise by calling and moving an old OPN 513 advocate and past team members Joe Chai to re-join us. He actually used to be the best spiritual friend of Johnny's son Michael. Both of them were once active in street outreach but later on moved on to other job and ministry. Joe worked with Evangelical Students in Campus outreach and some other outreach ministry of his church. Since the Pandemic, he is one of the work- from-home new social species. Through the Battle log of OPN 513, he got updated of our now limited street outreach while majority of OPN 513 folk have switched focus to online evangelism. Finally, God moved him to join us today while we are short of two regular hands. He actually takes one hour lunch break to rush to Sunnybank to join us from his new home now in Runcorn. We were most impressed by Joe apostolic passion to sacrifice his lunch hour to do His work. God is great and we are privilege to be His vessel for the proclamation of Gospel.
Today all of us faced momentarily consecutive rejection. But God also gave all of us many long and fruitful chats. God also imparted team work amongst us, using one team member to make the initial approach, though rejected but allow another team member to follow up making a successful connection on the 2nd attempt. Battle log of Hung is recap as follows: -
1 ) God led me to first approach an Old Aussie lady, who surprisingly was willing to talk and responded to question expressing her wish she could go to heaven by good deeds. It was a pity I did not have time to correct this stereotype concept and pray that the tract will still do the job.
2 ) Then I was led to approach Mr Yeung 楊from Quanzhou廣卅. He claimed he is a Buddhism practitioner佛. It more so gave me chance to clarify that all religions including Buddhism are good but only good at guiding people to be a good person. But no one can go to heaven unless we are perfect. I also pointed out to Mr Yeung that Buddhism strictly speaking is not a religion but simply a Moral education centre as there is no God head mentioned in Buddhism. It was all the self-perfection personal life transcending journey of the founder. Mr Yeung seems to have been impressed and understand what the religions can and cannot do versus Jesus a genuine saviour.
3 ) After that, I encountered again many rejections or sometime completer ignorance. I prayerfully moved on to my next divine appointment.
4 ) I approached two Chinese girls who also showed initial reluctance to chat. But I prayerfully and patiently still managed to share with them the full gospel before their bus arrived.
5 ) Then I have a medium long chat with Mr Yip 葉 from Hong Kong. He after a while disclosed, he is Christian and passed my test of complete assurance of salivation. He is now attending local Aussie church, but I encourage him to re-join Chinese Church or some of the on-line service.
6 ) Then I was led to approach a man from China who has just arrived from Shan Dong Ji Nan. 山東濟南. He is the rare mainlander to has open mind to listen to Gospel.
7 ) A defiant local Aussie with a Gypsy look initially tried to reject conversation but end up doing life searching question. Our conversation lasted the longest for 30 minutes. He claimed he was once a Christian but left the church and never ever will go back as he saw too many fake Christian with bad life witnesses. But after the long chat, he seemed to have his fallen asleep Spirit be revived again to see the work of God in his life.

Battle Log of Operation 513 for Sunnybank on Wednesday July 27th, 2022 from 1300 – 1500

Today only Johnny and Hung turned up to do outreach at Sunnybank. Both Gary and Amy were absent because of sickness either themselves and or their kids. Nevertheless, we still had a very good successful rate to get a conversation mingled with some intermittent rejections.

1 ) Tong 湯from Nanjing南京, an UQ student showed good interest in the Gospel and claimed that they are willing to pursue.

2 ) Michael with a cool hand but a warm heart claimed he heard the Gospel before but sincerely agreed the gospel is what all good persons need to hear and accept.

3 ) Jeanne an old Aussie lady who claimed she is a Christian and with100% certainty she could go to heaven yet the reasons are all related what she has done from being baptised, attend church, do tithing and comply with 10 commandment yet just falling short of knowing it is solely because of Jesus dying for us and paying on our behalf the price of eternal punishment of sin. It was a pity her bus arrived as such I just falling short of pointing her that her assurance of salvation is basing on the wrong cause.

4 ) Possibly a Filipino Chinese but abruptly rejected the gospel though I still managed to pass on the nutshell of gospel.

5 ) A Chinese Christian but very sensitive to answer if they have assurance of salvation, I doubt they are from sect that did not want to talk about salvation by grace thru faith.

9 ) Then I had a relatively long chat with a mature Chinese lady at her 35 to 40. 中國中女，She appeared very rational and had vast life experience that led her to believe, there is no way that anyone can become perfect and all we can do is to try to become a good person.理性，看透人生，盡力而為，I anyhow still tried my best to convey positive thinking and the important of salvation. 只能撒種

10 ) Mahear a Kenya UQ student is very rational minded and she doesn’t believe in heaven and hell but cannot reject the logic of gospel.

11 ) Dillon, I Vietnamese young man who were willing to listen to the gospel.

12 ) A young girl from 成都四川 who came to Australia at young age，I can identify with her with the experience of joining Sichuan Earth quake.

13 ) A Taiwanese man rejected to listen to the Gospel台男，抗拒談福音, I nevertheless still conveyed the gospel message to him.

A fine morning suddenly turned gloomy and even started drifting rain after we started today at Sunny bank. Praise be to God that we had a full team to day despite of the less-than-ideal weather condition. Johnny, Gary, Amy and Hung assembled again at the Sunnybank Plaza side of Bus stop. In general, it is a harder mission field there in SB with higher rate of rejection. Nevertheless, we still had many good quality gospel conversations. Recap below is the Battle Log of Hung Kwan.

1 ) 中國夫婦, 僅單張 A Chinese Couples, Chatted just a short while before the bus arrived. The husband still felt good to take a tract. I just went straight to the core of the gospel that everyone is imperfect as such we all need Jesus to pay for the price of our sin.

2 ) 基督徒女士.太短，得鼓勵 Then I approached a Christian lady and got encouraged to keep doing His work.

3 ) 生於廣州,81香港移民來澳Mansfield, An old lady originally approached by Amy but I took over and chatted a long while about memory of HKG. Finally, I still managed to share the gospel to them.

7 ) 成都移民朋友，初不願聊, 四川地震拉關係 Then had a long chat with two ladies from Chengdu. They initially had no interest to chat about gospel, but I used my 2008 Sichuan Earthquake disaster relief work to identify with them so at the end I could share the full gospel to them with apparent turn of heart to become receptive because of the love of God exhibited in the Christian ministry I shared with them.

Battle Log of Operation 513 for Sunnybank on Wednesday July 13th, 2022 from 1300 – 1500

Today was another day of Grace. The weather was fine, though Gary still could not join us because of kids got sick at home that needed his care. The three of us, Johnny, Amy and Hung however teamed up to do His work assigned to us. The beauty of today was a perfect illustration of team work. There were many cross referrals to each other for people coming from same or similar back ground to achieve the best effect of having the gospel and testimony to be shared. The results were in general very fruitful, with many prospective connections built for follow up and invitation to join CFC was extended, up to God further work to move them to come.

We also received a cheering up greeting from a passer by drivers. Glory be to God. He even asked for some tracts to be handed out to his friends.

Recap below is the Battle Log of Hung: -

1 ) Daniel, a Student from Mauritius and was a good listener to the Gospel with a receptive mind.

2 ) Mr Yang 楊 from Quanzhou 廣州人 was first approached by Johnny but he referred Yang to me as he is Cantonese speaking and he took over my conversation with another Chinese ladies that we chatted before. Despite Johnny already having shared the gospel with him, he still was in the opinion that being a good person would be good enough for heaven 做好人便可，I tried to clarify this misconception with him but failed which was cut short by the arrival of his bus. 未明道理但車已來

3 ) Ramsey might be from Egypt but he was born in Sydney. Possibly he is a Muslim but he 100% endorse the gospel I shared with him. He claimed he also believes in the only one God of creation and knew that we are all sinners that are subject to judgement by God after death. Just did not have time to crunch out the area of differences between his Muslim faith and Christianity.

4 )Then Amy referred Jason Ni 倪嘉翔 to me after having a long chat with this young man from Beijing and then Auckland of New Zealand. He is an UQ student but live off campus at Uni lodge. He and his mother had been to church in Auckland and actually he studied Catholic high school in NZ so he is aware of Christian faith yet not a committed believer. Amy asked me to cut in was to introduce him to Power to Change. But I was moved to share the gospel once again with him and invite him to come to our church as Woolloongabba is the midway interchange bus terminal to Cleveland taking only 20 min to our church. Pray that our long chat will move him closer to the last step of faith. Amy said he was very drawn to have conversation with us as he had chosen to miss several buses but kept talking with us.

5 ) Afterward, I approach Antony from Nigeria who has also called Australian home. I only had time to share the nutshell of the gospel with him but I guess he is a Christian already considering the conversion rate to Christ is very high in late years in Nigeria. Our conversation again was cut short by the arrival of the bus.

6 ) A tall guy seemingly is a Chinese but pretended initially he does not speak Chinese but eventually still abruptly turned away from our short lived conversation.

7 ) Then I had a long chat with Elaine 以琳 of the ICC International City Church (the ex- China town Assembly of God Church) She is a good church goer but was diagnosed having no assurance of salvation. I took a long chat to clarify her mis-concept about salvation, introducing to her the three folds salvation plan of God that we first will 100% sure to have eternal life and getting our heavenly citizenship back by repentance and accepting Jesus as our personal Saviour and Lord of Life. Thence God will send the Holy Spirit to dwell in our heart to start the life transformation work by substance back to perfect and the sinless state. Ultimately even our body will be transformed back to illness free state. She appreciated my teaching and affirm she now should have 100% assurance of salvation.

8 ) Finally, Michelle an Australian born Vietnamese who has not faith affiliation. But she listened to the gospel with great interest and agreed it is all sensible and logical. I hope she does not have any burden on Buddhism considering she is born here as if she is an Aussie.

Praise be to God that the weather dramatically turned fine with sun coming up over the morning overcast cloudy weather. I also thank God that my fitness and spirit remained high after this morning BCG Chemo procedure. Again, because of school holiday break, both Gary and Amy were not available so just Johnny and Hung teamed up as usual at the Sunnybank Plaza side Bus stop. Though unavoidably there were still a few rejections, but the warm and sunny afternoon weather light up the heart of most people to be willing to engage in a sort of chat with mixed results. Above all, even no one responded, the messenger would still be blessed for doing the bottom-line blessing kind of Gospel outreach. Recap below is the battle log of Hung: -

1 ) Will, a Muslim young African man, realized we are all sinners. But the Muslim view of sin is greatly different from Christianity. They classify sin into the category of Intentional, a bigger sin, and unintentional, a lesser sin. By repentance not doing it again will lessen the degree of sin and finally Muslim ask God, their Allah for forgiveness. I asked him how does Allah forgive our sin on what basis. Is there punishment or consequence of sin. Then Will could not answer as such seeing the difference between the issue of sin and how it is addressed. Bus came and Time up, but Will was so appreciative for the chat as such taking a selfie with me.

2 ) Jason a Singaporean of Buddhism background. He kept stressing that he is a Buddhist follower as such he does not need to hear the gospel. Despite of initial rejection, God still softened his heart to let our conversation going on. I made him realize Buddhism is actually not a religion as it does not have a God head. Then he started to follow me as well as the gospel which he finally took a tract to ponder more.

3 ) Taiwanese origin Filipino showed initial avoidance but was fully convinced later asking for a tract when the bus came.

4 ) A Chinese lady took a tract and reluctantly listened to the gospel without much facial expression till the bus came.

5 ) A local Aussie girl refused to talk about God but I still got a chat with her to guide her ponder about judgment after death. I divert to the issue of the Independent Spirit of most Australian that is the seed bed of atheism or anti- institutionalism. Through this mutual identification, her heart was softened to take in the gospel message and left with a tract.

6 ) It was likely a catholic Christian From Filipino saying god bless me at the end of our hasty sharing of the core gospel message.

7 ) An elderly appeared to be dumb, or a disguised to not talking still took in some gospel message that I still endeavour to proclaim it to him.

8 ) Sister Li李大姊，her time of transit between two bus was too quick to allow a to the point conversation. Johnny suggested me to find another chance to chat with her to test if she has really received Christ. 還未測試到是否已信主

9 ) Three very arrogant Chinese ladies pretended not Chinese speaking, but their lousy English betrayed them. So just had to let go for those who are determined to despise the gospel.

10 ) Juno, a mixed Samoa father and Afghanistan mother who knows the gospel very well though still a non -believer. I nevertheless still went through the full gospel with him and I have the gut feeling that he was a step closer to Jesus' redemptive grace.

11 ) I approached a Local Aussie girl and a tom boy Chinese lady. The Aussie girl was open to the gospel but the Chinese girl a bit reluctant. But only the nutshell was shared but they took both the Chinese and English tracts.

12 ) I approached two Chinese UQ students from Fuzhou. One is open and welcoming another try to avoid by getting her friend to leave doing shopping.

13 ) Then I caught up with Madam Zheng from Taiwan. 張台灣, we chatted a while on common history of Taiwan and Hong Kong 聊港台的事 which closely bound us together. I anyhow had no time yet to touch on the Gospel. Madam Zheng bet to meet with me again next week.

14 ) Johnny referred Mr Yan甄 who is from Quang Zhou and once worked in South Africa for three years.南非民工 During that time，Chinses pastor did approach him so he admitted he heard of the gospel before.有聴過福音廣東人. Pray for God continuous guidance and show off His Mission Power.

Today is within the weeks of School breaks for State and High school. Both Amy and Gary were not available as they had to mind their own kids for quality family time. Actually, Amy and the two kids have gone down to Adelaide to pay tribute and commemorate their Husband/father. A time that needs healing of God with Love and Peace. As a result, only Johnny and Hung were on duty. Both of us had a comparatively busy time though many of them are fruitless approach if not outright rejection. By the grace of God, there were still a few quality conversation especially for Johnny. Recap below is the Battle Log of Hung: -

1 ) My first outreach was to an Aboriginal Granma and her Granddaughter. They were in a rush and using the bus waiting time to have their lunch. They however still welcome me to talk to them while they are eating. Basically, they are church going but not yet a believer, they could not pay full focus on my sharing, so I settle with wrapping up with the nutshell of the gospel and leave them finish their lunch box before the bus came.

2 ) Then I approach a Korean but he was not interested even though I tried to share just the nutshell of the Gospel.

3 ) Then cam a Local Aussie girl who was friendly and willing to have a chat, yet it was cut short by the quick arrival of her bus.

4 ) I approached a Mainlander Chinese, but he diverted the attention to his friend who is a devoured Buddhism follower. 大陸⋯.推搪， 有信佛專家 I tried to steer his mind to understand that all religion including Buddhism are good but do not address the issue of sin. He was two brain washed to insist that he needs nothing else other than Buddhism.

5 ) Then I caught up with A devout Christina from Solomon Island. He claimed himself a God lover praying all the time to God. But when tested if he has assurance of salvation, he only got 50/50 certainty which was gravely wrong. I had him clarified that it should be 100% as Jesus' redemptive work was 100% sufficient and effective to grant us the long-lost heavenly citizenship the moment we received Christ as our Saviour. He was pleased for this clarification and took a selfie with me.

6 ) Jacob was an ecumenical minded person claiming that all good person of whatever religion can go to heaven by their good deeds. It seemed that he is not fully agreeable even after my clarification.

7 ) Then I caught up with a woman from Mainland China大陸女，she was open to chat though still avoid telling me her name and her home town.還可以聊. Just share the nutshell of Gospel to her before the bus arrived.

8 ) I sat next to a Buddhism lady佛教女，she still refused to admit she is not good enough after her Buddhism education. 聽後還是不 接受

9 ) Two Hong Kong Compatriots, who are church going at UQ, but not yet a believers. They also was from Christian school background from Hong Kong. They anyhow admitted that the gospel is sensible and logical and our status as sinner is a fact though hard to accept. They thanked for my sharing and indicated that they are now more ready to become a Christian by simply accepting Jesus as their personal Saviour.

Today, the weather continued to be good. We had four persons turning up to serve at Sunnybank. So, Johnny and Gary teamed up to serve on the East side while Amy and Hung stayed on the West side at the Bus Stop. Again, God gave many meaningful and fruitful divine encounters to us. Recap is the Battle Log of Hung.

1 ) I first approached a Pakistan man who was friendly to chat. He admitted no one is perfect so he accepted that everyone needs Jesus to die and pay for our sin.

2) Faragher looked tired from work but was drawn to the gospel and felt energised by the good news.

3 ) A Local Aussie man bought a pack of wine from the liquor store but he was glad to have a chat and took a tract when the bus arrived.

4 ) Brad with a nose ring but was extraordinarily gentile and receptive to the Gospel. He has catholic schooling background so the gospel is still a new and refreshing message to him.

5 ) A Taiwan mature young man was a willing listener, just able to share him the nutshell of the gospel when his bus arrived.

6 ) I was able to identify with a dating couples from Xian sharing a lot of things about their home town. It opened up the chat box and God inspired to girl to have the wisdom to point out that what China needs now is faith rather than any human measures. She became so emo that she has to left for the private room to calm herself down. After that, I can share more my testimony with her that the ultimate life transforming strength is from God and she appears all agreeable. Pray for God's continuous follow up work.

7 ) Stephanie actually a Christian but did not expose herself and let me lead on sharing the gospel. I guess, she does not fully understand salvation by grace through faith as such she has no idea or certainty that she can go to heaven. After my clarification, she gladly understood now the important of accepting Jesus as our Saviour and keep trusting our Lord to lead a upward lifting Christian walk to let God made us perfect again eventually by the power of the Holy Spirit. The chat last long enough over 15-20 minutes to refresh and correct her incorrect and incomplete understanding about the Christian faith.

The temperature climbed up back a bit making it warmer and best for open air outreach. Today, Gary could not come because of Kid’s illness. So Just Johnny, Amy and Hung were available for this regular Wednesday afternoon outreach. Thanks God that all of us had been kept quite busy without much lapse time in between but we still could back each other up and took some valuable pictures for our Battle log journal. Basically, it was a great day that we could have very meaningful chat with some non-believers with rare unique background such as Judaism, Buddhism and Atheism. God also led us to reconnect with people we had one or several chats before to do follow up refreshment sharing. They all worked well together to have achieved the Will and Plan of God for all those approached gospel targets helping them to move one step closer to their eternal faith and salvation. Amy was able also to get personal connection that may lead to coming to join our church service in the near future. Recap below is the Battle log of Hung: -

1 ) For Hung, the first target is Michael a Jewish non-believer scholar, yet very fond of studying the Bible in original Hebrew language. He however was brainwashed with many anti-Christ slogan by the biased attitude of the Judaism Jews against Jesus as the fake messiah. He shared a prom version about Jesus birth that Mary was actually raped by the Roman soldier to then giving birth to Jesus as virgin birth was completely beyond the comprehension of their human knowledge. I drew his attention to Gen 3:15 about the dual mags plan Kingdom and redemption projects, prophesizing that a descendent of woman will kick off the dual project defeating Satan and redeeming all repentant sinners through the incarnation as a perfect human by virgin birth. Mark was fascinated by the early stage prophesy and felt shameful to withdraw his half joking claim that Jesus was born as a baby conceived by Mary by being raped. I moved on to illustrate how the Bible should be read on light of God’s mission handbook by the two temple cleansing accounts. He was overwhelmed by all these new interpretations of Biblical accounts but had to leave with an aroused desire to listen on.

2 ) Then I approached a Vietnamese nurse student but she showed very passive attitude toward the Bible and faith issue though she was still listening not wholeheartedly.

3 ) Julian a Filipino Christian originally of Catholic background but was converted to Protestant Christianity. She was very faithful and pious in seeking biblical truth. Yet she failed the most fundamental on not having full assurance of salvation. With a concise apologetic sharing, she came to her sense that because of the efficacy of Jesus’ work dying for us then we should have 100% of assurance of salvation. She was greatly pleased by this enlightenment and was willing to take selfie with me to show her appreciation.

4 ) I was so glad to have met a Hing Konger Mr HU also a Christian now meeting at Toowong Baptist. 胡道旺，I shared a bit about the Chinese Church history in Brisbane and pray for another divine encounter. 分享教會歷史

5 ) Three Japanese girls that Amy tried to approached but declined by them as they were into a group conversation amongst themselves. I anyhow had a go to interrupted them affirming they were really Japanese as such I greeted them in Japanese. Of course, it helped to remove the social distance between them but it was too late as the bus jsut arrived at this moment. I anyhow handed to one of them the tract.

6 ) A Chinese couples from Shanghai appeared a bits initial reluctance to chat when Amy first approached them. I anyway made a second attempted and was successful to share the gospel to the wife. She claimed she got the tract before and indicate no interest as they are Buddhism followers. I made use of this lead that all religions are good at guiding people to be a good person but failed to address sin. Message was passed on but the lady was interrupted by a friend call and it ended our conversation. 中國夫蹄。上海，拿過單張，再講福音

7 ) Salina an Indian young lady but showed deep interests in listening to the gospel wearing a big smile all the times. She was receptive to the gospel but the bus arrived just when I finished the sharing. Pray for God's own follow up work.

8 ) Sammy was the person that Terresa was moved to lead her into a conversation prayer. Sammy actually recognized me as I had a long chat with her two weeks ago and I have left a deep impression by her reaction to the gospel as well as by her name which is same as a Christian singer. Despite the eagerness of Teresa, she is still not ready to make a firm conversion though she is very close to making the last step of faith but actually just not yet. I assured her that it is right to be prudent in making this important decision of her life time and pray that she will make up her mind without reservation next time we meet. But today, it was a great chat that she missed two times her bus to let our conversation last for a longer time.

9 ) Mark a Malaysian Christian but he disclosed to me very late as such I only shared him the full gospel without checking out his assurance of salvation.
