Battle Log of Operation 513 at Sunnybank on Wednesday August 27th 2025 from 1030-1200

Today Johnny was able to join me in Sunnybank to do street outreach under marvelous early Spring like weather condition despite we are legitimately still within the late Winter period.

God ble3ssed and used Johnny lately, leading him to share gospel with many non-believers who surprisingly responded to receive Christ right away after the gospel sharing. I also got many follow up opportunities to chat with some one we met and chatted before. Another amazing thing was God led us to meet repeatedly with people from Uzbekistan that we never came across before in the past years. Uzbekistan is a doubly landlocked country located in Central Asia. It is surrounded by five countries: Kazakhstan to the north, Kyrgyzstan to the northeast, Tajikistan to the southeast, Afghanistan to the south, and Turkmenistan to the southwest, making it one of only two doubly landlocked countries on Earth, the other being Liechtenstein. Islam is the predominant religion of 94.7%, and most Uzbeks are Sunni Muslims. So, it was very precious Kairos moment for us to share Gospel to them. In general, the gospel targets we met today including even those from Mainland were all open and receptive to Gospel with a couple of them even not minding to take selfie with me. So, mission matters and God's sovereign power counts.

Today was rainy and I was again serving solo at Sunnybank. General mood of people was not good. Just managed to have a few meaningful chats with a Hongkonger and a young man from

Uzbekistan in Central Asia that I have never met before. Mainlander in general are still the hardened heart people for outreach. I anyway caught up with a young girl who was approached before here by either Johnny or Edwin for some follow up chat.

Today, I was alone again to do the street outreach with all my team mates not available. Sunnybank uses to be a heard land for gospel outreach, so I just aimed to take a soft approach to get connected first especially with Mainlander. And today my first target was from Xian. My past visits to Xian twice helped me to quickly build rapport and could transit to gospel sharing. Then I was led to connect with yet another Indian Christian. He actually approached me with a purpose to show his support and appreciation. He even donate $20 which is the first time people doing this on the street. I anyway accepted it and will donate to Walk the Wall to support Ivano. He is also the rare clear minded Christian that answer the two diagnosis questions correct showing he has 100% assurance of salvation and a good biblical understanding of salvation. Many other approaches were either not complete and ineffective.

Both Johnny and Edwin were not available to day so I was left to do solo, but also for a short period. It was because mild flu symptom of bleeding and running nose. Irrespective of all these minor restraint, I still can manage to share gospel with many with mixed result. There were blunt ignoring if not straight rejection. There were half hearted ones hearing without listening or abrupt aborting the sharing midway. By the grace, there were also a couples of open and receptive ones. For instance , with Charloote a local Brisbane girl studying last year at UQ for Art. She is a non religious non-believers, but she was polite and considerate to let me share her the full gospel and ended up admitting it is all convincing for every one goof or bad, as long as we are imperfect, we all need the grace of God to save us through the atoning death of Jesus. She promised she will think deep and make her personal decision to accept Jesus in her personal private space. Another long and fruitful chat was with a Shanghainese couples. Basing on the common affiliation with Shanghai, I virtually shared my life witness to him even without much religious vocab. All in all, it was a blessed morning to let me keep my commitment to live a life on mission with God.

Praise be to God, that the three Street Gospel Warriors , namely Johnny, Edwin and Hung, assembled again to team up to preach the gospel at the Sunnybank Bus stop.

It is a fine day for outreach though with mixed results. We faced many rejections or reluctant listeners, but in the meantime, God also led many willing souls to listen to the gospel with open mind and general receptiveness to the gospel message and the logic behind. For the former group, they were in majority people from mainland China or even including some Hong Kongers. For the more receptive groups, they includes people from Pakistan, local Aussie mature woman and young Aussie girl doing Uni study , and girl from Africa. May God Will be done through all these divine encounter and gospel sharing conversation.

Hopefully, today is the last day I will have to do street outreach solo by myself and Johnny is coming back next week. It was though a very pleasant outreach experience having quality conversations with three open and receptive non-believers: first Adrian a half Aussie and half Japanese young man, than an Australian born Pakistan young man, and then an elderly Vietnamese lady who speaks good English having migrated to Australia for 50 years. They all were impressed by the logic of the gospel message that as long as we are not perfect in our human characters/natures, we are all subject to God's wrath and judgment unless we accept Jesus as our Savor taking over the punishment as well as consequence of eternal death or disqualification to rejoin God's kingdom. With such needs clearly established, all of them will ponder deeply to respond to the calling of God, in His time.

There were some other shorter conversations as such the gospel message was not fully preached. There was only one rejection of Gospel by a Congo couples. Nevertheless, all of these encounters should be regarded as divine appointments serving God's purpose in His Will and Plan.

Edwin teamed up with Hung today again to do street outreach. It was a fine day with warm sunshine. Yet the hearts of many of the people we approached were a bit cold and not receptive to the gospel. Nevertheless, there were still exceptions of several good chats experienced by Hung.

1) First with an senior man from Toowoomba who was just discharged from a day surgery at Sunnybank Private. It gave me to lead to stress life is vulnerable beyond our control that we must make the most important decision to straighten out the issue of our eternal being whether with God in heaven or apart from God in Hell.
2) Then I spotted a Filipino lady standing besides the dangerous spot at the bus stop where once a bus hit and smash on to a light post with its tail when leaving the bus stop. It again led to the issue of vulnerability of life that we must understand that all human will go to hell in doom day if our life is not perfect.
3) Then I caught up with another girl of Filipino dad and Aussie mum. She is very open and receptive to the gospel.
4) Last but not the least I spent the longest time with a Chinese Mainlander women who believes in fortune telling. She initially bound off to avoid me but the Spirit moved her to come back to me for a chat. I was led by the Spirit to spin around the conversation back to the gospel and showed her the only way to have eternal peace and hope is through Jesus.

It was a good day for street outreach especially with Edwin joining me again reaching almost every one who come to the Bus Stop. For me, it was a special day for reaching out to seversl elderly mainlander males and or with their couples. Surprisingly they were all open and receptive to the Gospel and enjoyed the free chatting with me and ending up with selfie with me. God is amazing in His salvation plan for individuals.

I also had another chat with a Christian lady who is an ABC from Adelaide to come for a Christian conferences. Surprisingly , she does nit have 100% assurance of salvation which was clarified with appreciation shown by a selfie photo.

1) Approached an elderly lady from Nanjing sharing gospel half way then her husband and friends came to join her thus chatting switched to be with the husband.

2) Caught up with Cecil who is an ABC of Malaysian Chinese background but is from Adelaide to Brisbane for conference. Lack of 100 Assurance of salvation but clarified easily

3) First with a Mainlander male of my same age but was waiting for friends to bring a lady for dating first appointment. Good rapport build and that man has history of going to church but not fully understand gospel, later his friends came also with Christianity and bible knowledge though still a non believer. Through conversation, clarified a lot of their misconception on salvation and knowledge about Mormon and JW. Appeared a big step closer to accept Jesus.

4) Follow up chat with Mr. Chang from Hebei , Boding waiting for wife who gone shopping. Edwin had approached him with a quick gospel sharing. But I was moved to continue with deeper chat which really appeared making good sense to him and later her wife, so again they were happy to take selfie with me.

Today was an extremely windy day but it did not deter the eagerness of Edwin to rejoin me after a long break due to heavy Bible college study load. He can rejoin me from now on , not only during term break but his last terms left with only one subject so, he should be more free and available to come. We are of different type of evangelist, Edwin is good as quick approach with the nutshell of the gospel. I prefer to dig deeper and have a longer conversation, situations permitted. So, we both had a fruitful day in term of number of conversation for Edwin and long chats for Hung which is recap as below: -

1) First with a nonbeliever from Liaoning 遼寧人, Mainland China. He was cautious but still polite enough to let me share the full gospel to him and took as tract at the end.

2) Then Theo an ABC with parents of a Christian family from mainland China. Theo only has 60 % of assurance of salvation as such he was shy to admit he is a fair dinkum Christian. But now after clarification he was joyful to ascertain he has 100% assurance now.

3) Next is also a Christian from South Africa who has migrated to Australia for 15 years. He also lack 100% assurance of salvation but now claim himself a fair dinkum Christian.

4) Then I was led to catch up with and arrogant Australian born Filipino. He took a rebellious attitude to attack the gospel and doctrine but eventually he cannot rebuke the rationale and logic of Gospel but still refused to accept a tract from me..

5) last but not the least was Eddy a local Aussie young brook with a Chinese girl friend. He showed initial skepticism but eventually fully impressed and convinced by the gospel.
