Battle Log of Operation 513 for Toowong on Tuesday April 26th, 2022 from 1330 – 1500

Johnny is still out of town after his Tasmania Mission trip. Only Winnie and Hung turned up as a team. We pray particularly for protection from undue interruption by unfriendly and prejudiced persons. And thanks God we had a very smooth and fruitful afternoon. God led me to catch up with willing hearts to listen to the gospel as such most conversations I had as a divine appointment lasted quite long for a full Gospel sharing as recap below: -

NB Please pray for my day surgery Bladder Biopsy operation tomorrow at Sunnybank Private Hospital. So I will skip Sunnybank street ministry for one day on April 27, 2022.

1. I caught up with two Asian looking girls of whom one just left shortly after the chat began for phone call. The other Korean girl, remained interested to engage in interactive conversations, allowing me to present to her the full gospel showing genuine interest and appeared quite moved to pursue. I introduced her to Power to Change.

2. Heidi is a Muslim Malaysian UQ student. She was very open to sharing of Jesus and appeared receptive to the gospel.

3. Iftakhar is from a Islamic family in Bangladesh. Like Heidi, I stressed that all religions are good but only good at teaching people to be a good person yet providing no solution on the punishment of sins. He showed positive consent to the logic and effectiveness of redemptive grace by the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Again, I encourage them to pursue God by joining Power to Change in the UQ campus. He was very appreciative for my message and was more than happy to take a selfie with me to commemorate this divine encounter.

4. Peter is a local Aussie elderly man who has heard the gospel before but has not yet made the last step of faith to receive Christ. But today, despite of his vulnerable health situation, he appeared taking the gospel message all in and showed positive sign to make his last step of faith. He therefore was more than happy to take a selfie with me to commemorate this divine encounter.

5. After consecutive success in preaching the Gospel, God still led me to approach a die-hard guy who politely turn me down for a chat. I however still managed to share the nutshell of Gospel to him quickly and leave him with God.

6. Finally, I caught up with an Indonesia UQ student of Muslim background. However, he was also open to gospel conversation and show interests to look for joining “Power to Change” to pursue God.

Battle Log of Operation 513 for Toowong on Tuesday April 19th, 2022 from 1330 – 1500

Praise and thank God Winnie and Hung started without Johnny who is now on mission trip to Launceston in Tasmania at Toowong and was joined by Kiateck Tan later to form a team of three to do street outreach. Despite it is already mid- Autumn, the afternoon sun was still scorching hot that people at the bus stop tended to hid behind the shade of the Bus Stop. There was less people flow as it was a holiday break for UQ, but we still managed to get as many conversation as God matched us up as His divine encounter. Thank God that I only encountered a couple of rejections with all the rest leading to a fruitful conversation as recap below: -

1. After a couple of rejections, God led me to approach a 2nd year UQ student from Indonesia, I was managed to share the nutshell of the Gospel to him before the bus came and gave him a tract to read to supplement what I shared.

2. Then I approached a Pacific Islander ABC of Chinese descendent. He was polite and expressed no need to hear. But I still managed to use a friendly manner to pass on the gospel message until the bus came.

3. Steven a tall Aussie young man. He is a non-believer and not sure if he can go to heaven. I could manage to affirm him that no one can go to Heaven unless you are perfect.

4. Bradley another local Aussie young UQ students, I was able to share the full gospel plus my testimony. He seemingly was impressed to really ponder to receive Christ. I referred him to Power to Change if he wanted to pursue God.

5. Ben was another UQ students from England at the age of 6 year. He admitted this was the first time he heard about the gospel and he was very receptive and ready to receive Christ.

6. Then I chatted with a Poland lady Catalina. We found the come topic of who are bad and as listed on the tract plus Putin who are widely regarded as a War Criminal and those helping out Ukraine including Poland as the number one supportive country to help out Ukraine in their self-defensive military action. It led into the topic if being a good person like the Ukrainian and Poland people can go to heaven. She found the conclusion very interesting but no more time to continue with the conversation except taking a tract to read at home.

7. Finally, I shared with a young couple from Malaysia who are bilingual. Eventually I chose to share them the full gospel in English and managed to finish it before the bus came.

Battle Log of Operation 513 for Toowong on Tuesday April 5th, 2022 from 1330 – 1500

Today we started with three regular team mates Johnny, Winnie and Hung but Winnie suddenly had developed acute stomach pain and bad tummy movement as such she had to withdraw to the toilet and eventually quitted earlier though still managing to share Gospel to a couple of person both at the bus stop and later back inside the Toowong Shopping centre. Johnny and Hung remained at the bus station but facing unusually higher ratio of rejection. Praise and thanks God that we all took them in as part of the training to not be discouraged by external factors but steadfastly holding on to share the gospel to anyone as long as they don’t tum their back on us. As a result, I still managed to have many conversations as recap below:-

1. Sophie a non-religious person but still appeared receptive to the gospel message.

2. Bearman left to avoid me.

3. A Filipino girl trying to push me away, but with my persistence to make friendly chat to disarm her defense system, I still could manage to share her the nutshell of the gospel.

4. Lilian another Filipino but a cross breed with Aussie father, appeared a more open-minded person who was willing to listen and interact.

5. David an ABC with parents from mainland China who is doing pharmacy appeared as an open-minded person as well and have good interaction on the gospel issue.

6. Parley , an India Hindu lady who initially rejected to chat but did soften down to have a causal chat that led back to the gospel before the bus arrived.

7. Liliana a Christian girl of the Seven Day Adventist who failed to have 100% assurance of salvation. I only have time to correct her idea pointing her to the efficacy of Jesus’ work dying on the cross for us all , the sinner that we are given back our heavenly citizenship 100% the moment we receive Christ as our saviour.

8. Grace a nice girl who appeared friendly and opened to the gospel.

It was school holiday period, Kiateck could not join us as he needed to mind his daughter at home. So just the regular team of three Johnny , Winnie and Hung turned up for the regular Tuesday outreach after a break last week because of suspected Covic-19 close contact and heavy rain. Today it was all great sunshine and scorching heat in high noon, but our passion to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ was equally heated. All of us have almost non-stop conversation though many of them were short and interrupted pre-maturely by the quick arrival of bus. Nevertheless, we still trusted in God that all divine encounter whether long or short, gospel shared full or partial, the work of the Holy Spirit will keep pursuing and nurturing all seeds of gospel to bear fruit at the most opportune time as Will by God. Recap below is the Battle Log of Hung and Winnie respectively.

Hung’s Battle log

1. Michael 2nd year UQ student from England, open to the gospel and respond positively.

2. Matt was a local Aussie but not a student. Yet he was a willing listener and appeared receptive to the gospel.

3. Jack, a Postgraduate of UQ and another willing listener with my testimony being shared first about my good work of joining the Sichuan earth quake disaster relief in 2008 as a student of Master of Counselling. It led up to the conclusion that even with good work like me, I could not earn salvation as the good deed can never be able to off set sin in my heart and my life,

4. Old Aussie Christian lady with 99% assurance of faith to go to heaven. So unfortunately, she still fell short of full understanding of the redemptive grace of Jesus that have 100% atonement power to deliver us form eternal death punishment. Just a pity no time to clarify her wrong concept.

5. Noel a Chinese UQ student but was English speaking who claimed to have chatted with us before and took the tract. Before I can test his feedback after reading the tract, the arriving bus again cut short our conversation.

6. An English-speaking Chinese girl appeared too arrogant to listen. I nevertheless still finish sharing the full gospel to her.

7. An Indonesia young lady who came in 2020 was open for a chat. It seemed that God has moved many Indonesians to pursue Christ in the campus. So this lady was very receptive to the Gospel.

8. Sam a UQ student from Canada who was receptive to the gospel.

9. Arnold from China but received Christ here in Brisbane now attending the hope church. Upon testing of his faith, he only has 80% assurance of salvation for heaven. Quick clarification was done before the bus came.

4. 印尼少女，Emily。她母親是基督徒。她以為母親是基督徒，她就是基督徒。我問她有去教會参加主日崇拜及查經，有受洗歸入基督名下嗎？她説没有。我對她説，你母親信主，得救。是她應得的，與你無關。我由亞當，夏娃犯罪的结果，罪性便一代代傳留到我們。所以當我們來到世上，我們已经是罪人。我給她單張看看，甚麽是罪。你一定要悔改，口裏承認耶稣基督是你的救世主，你才可以得救。耶稣基督為救贖我們，死在十字架上，三天後復活。祂背付我們的罪債。只要我們信靠祂，罪得赦免，你便可以得救。她聽後，願意悔改，信靠耶稣，跟母親反教會。

Battle Log of Operation 513 for Toowong on Tuesday March 22, 2022 from 1330 – 1500

It seemed to be yet another day of outreach at Toowong, with again only the three regular team members of Johnny, Winnie and Hung. But God worked in mysterious way that each time, the people we met and can have a chat are all divine appointments by God through the Holy Spirit. Some are smooth sailing while some are hard yard facing initial rejection but mission power always take place to turn around the situation allowing Gospel to be shared with ultimate results in God's Good Hands. All we need to do are to faithfully submit to the guidance of the Spirit to work with God with total dedication and commitment of our all. It is more so an important narrow path for obedient Christians to grow in grace and in knowledge of God in our life long Christian Walk.

Recap below are the Battle Log of Hung and Winnie as usual: -

1. An Indian girl from Singapore rejected Winnie, but God led me to have a chat with her in a softer way by sharing with her my own testimony. It turned out that she responded very positively to the Gospel admitting Jesus is the only way to take our place to receive punishment of our sin.

2. Then another young man from Shanghai reject Johnny but still I was moved to approach him using friendship chat to break the ice. I use my only testimony that even as a Sichuan 2008 earth quake disaster relief volunteer, contributing my effort to help out needy person to have peace after the traumatic experience, I am still just a good person but not a perfect one that can be right with God for heaven. I still need Jesus and that was the message I have been preaching in China and up till nowadays on the street of Australia. He was impressed and took a tract to read and ponder on his own situation.

3. Richard was a person of "faith" but seemingly not of orthodox Christian faith. Yet, I managed to spirituality clicked with him first to gain the trust to share the gospel message that he initially thought he had no need to listen.

4. Then I approached Trever who was very willing to have a chat on faith with me. Yet we were interrupted by a very aggressive Aussie lady who threated to call the Security and later the Police. So with such disturbance, our chat was cut short. But Trever still thanked and show appreciation for our effort to share the message we thought is important for everyone to listen.

5. Ormat a French Catholic PhD student of UQ was delighted to chat with me with an opened mind, humble and friendly manner. Despite his Catholic background, he is very receptive to the orthodox Christian Gospel message admitting we are all imperfect sinners and every one need Jesus.

6. An Aussie girl of new age background who does not believe in trinity yet still heard the gospel. She likes many atheist or Sect, who do not accept Jesus is God or taking him just a lesser god , questioned about the efficacy of Jesus work on the Cross. So obviously here mind is still blinded by the evil spirit as such she could not receive the revelation by the Holy Spirit. Nevertheless, Gospel was once more time shared with her as seed sowing though still on a hard ground.

Battle Log of Operation 513 for Toowong on Tuesday March 15, 2022 from 1330 – 1500

We praise and thanks God for moving Rev Kiateck Tan to join Johnny, Winnie and Hung today despite his three BST interns did not turn up again for this street outreach. There is always need for more labor to serve on the harvest field.

As a result of the beginning of a new term of UQ, we saw heap of people lining up in long queue for the bus. If the bus had not come that frequent and stopped only for a short time to take up queuing passengers, we could have too overwhelming number of people that we cannot handle. But God is good, the four of us were able to manage to pick up just enough people to share the gospel. God also sent a couple very serious Muslim with apologetic mindset to engage in great debate with first Johnny and later joined by me. They actually were trained to pick on Christians to challenge their faith. All we can do is to stand our ground and use the orthodox version of Bible to debate with the Muslims who are skilled at using out of context quotation and sometime even twisted facts to reject the trinity and deny Jesus as the Son of God.

Actually Kiateck had also approached some lay Muslims that they were more opened minded and less argumentative.

Recap anyway is the Battle Log of Hung followed by Winnie: 0

1. I had the longest chat with Chan陳 a HonKonger who is in his 2nd year of Uni with UQ. He initially told me he once was but no longer now as a Christian. But after clarification, his parents are church going people 香港父母是上教會的基督徒both in Hong Kong and now here in Australia. And he has never been a Christian but simply just went to church with his parent in HK, 自己不是，曾隨家人上教會but no more perhaps with the excuse of concentrating on Uni study現已離開教會. Despite of this near atheist background, he appeared to have piece mill knowledge of the Bible thru his past Sunday School learning. But God obviously has touched his heart and opened up his mind to find light shedding truth about the deteriorating nature of human beyond redemption by our good deeds and see the need for Jesus redemptive grace to take our place to receive the punishment of sim originally due on us. He was delighted to know he could be God people right away by accepting Jesus as his Saviour and Lord of his life. Therefore is very close to conversion, 接近信主 as such he was happy to take a selfie with me as a memory of this divine encounter that possibly might have led him to Christ in no time.一.

2. The 2nd person I approached pretend he does not speak Chinese假裝非華人.But I then shared with him in English that he cannot reject, 但仍勉強聽 so reluctantly he had to listen to my sharing of the gospel in full and took a tract at the end.

3. I then took over from Johnny to do apologetic debate with a learned Muslim, Mohammad. He is very argumentative and was trained to twisted Bible facts to misled green and lay Christens who are not well verse in the Bible. For instance, he said Mary is never married and had no husband. Even the Catholic dared not claim Mary has no husband but simply claimed she has never had sex with Joseph her husband after giving birth to Jesus. So, his way of apologetic was very rough and easy to tackle and clarified. It was a pity the bus came and I invited him to look for us next week to continue with a apologetic exchange.

4. Then I approached two Chinese students one appeared very cautious and skeptical but still listened. The other was more opened and listened with a receptive heart. So the seed of Gospel was sown on different ground and up to God to reap the fruit.

5. Then I caught up with Ellen a modern urban girl look like us the HongKonger, but she is actually from mainland China Jiang Xi Nan Chong. 山西南昌. When I knew she is a year 2 UQ students so I asked had you been able to go home during vacation and the answer is no. Because of pandemic, all Chinese students got stuck here so most of them have home sick. I show my empathy and gained her trust for a very smooth full gospel sharing which has impressed her very much as she can see the ugly side of human nature especially what is happening in China the Communist regime. Pray that the Spirit will move her just a step from her final salvation.

6. Myer a Nepalese UQ students. She was originally very rejective and firmly declined my approach for any chat about Christianity. I nevertheless identified with her that ever since the earthquake taking place ten odd year ago, Christianity has gained significant ground through first charity and disaster relief work. Unknowingly, the Spirit put off her fire of antagonism and listened submissively all I have to share with her about the nutshell of the gospel. Though at the end she still reject taking the tract, but the seed of Gospel has obviously been sown.

7. My last personal approach to a girl from Suzhou was very promising as I can identify with her as a rare visitor of her home town even before she was born. Yet the Bus came and all I can leave with her was the tract. 蘇州女沒時間

8. Last but not the least, I joined Johnny to have very vibrant doctrinal debate with another Muslim who is a father of a young kids. It was weird to have loud conversation when his child was asleep in the pram. This person was even more well learned in the Muslim version of the OT bible raging fierce debate to reject trinity and the divinity of Jesus. It was a pity we already ran out of time and had to leave, I anyway stay till the last minutes and also invite him to come back next week for more apologetic exchange.

Battle Log of Operation 513 for Toowong on Tuesday March 8th, 2022 from 1330 to 1500

The revived street outreach after the subsiding of Omicron was interrupted last week by the general road block caused by flash flooding. Though some of the road block is still in place , but access to Toowong is ok as such the three regular team mates Johnny, Winnie and Hung can reassembled again. The weather was extreme hot up to 35C, yet it could not hampered our eagerness for outreach. We all could meet many UQ students especially fresh undergraduate. Majority showed openness to have a chat without only a few exceptions. So God is good.

Hung battle Log

1) I was First rejected by a Chinese guy, and the Spirit did not move me to keep pursuing.

2) Girl from Northern Europe did not reject my approach but showed indifference all the time when I shared the gospel.北歐女生顕現冷漠

3) Then I approached an Indian guy who did not show keen interest to chat initially, but just let my conversation go on with gradually increasing degree of interaction. His interest was aroused and he finally took a tract and promised to ponder on the foundation of gospel message I shared with him.

4) Gwen, a Chinese look girl from Brunei possibly of Muslim background but was very open for religious conversation and appeared very receptive to the gospel message.

5) A Big fellow refused to chat with Winnie, but the Spirit led me to approach him on a friendly chat basis. I basically used my testimony of planning to do a Master of Counseling to minister to the family counseling need of my own church members but after a year of study, I found out from the course about code of conduct than a Counselor cannot have dual relationship with patient. So I cannot serve my own church member but must refer to others. It seems that my purpose of doing the degree was tarnished. But God made no mistakes to let me use this Counseling student identify to join the 2008 Sichuan earthquake and there by opened up a 7 years period of China ministry. I bring back the discussion to the issue can we really planned and have full control of our own life. Can we be sure to be a good man all our life without any blemishes. If not, shall we need to face the consequence of our imperfect decision making that led us to face judgment after death. So virtually, I still brought the big fellow back to my first question and he is responding very sensibly now when the bus arrival ending our 10 minutes or more conversation.

6) A Catholic Christian ask me to save my gas as he is a Catholic. Then I tested for his assurance of salvation which failed utterly. Yet he just showed an indifferent attitude could not be careless if he really understand the meaning of salvation.

7) Then God led me to approach Nadim an Malaysian Muslin that Johnny already have a good and successful chat leading him to understand the salvation and even has invited him to Sherwood Methodist. I basically reinforce don the assurance of salvation with encouragement to follow Jesus and learn God through Bible study at Church.

8 ) Rowland a Singapore young man with very opened mind and showed genuine receptiveness to the Gospel.

9) Olive a polite Aussie girl paying genuine attention to the Gospel message I shared and admitted that it is all logical and sensible to know we are sinners and we all need Jesus.

8/3/22 Toowong Battle log of Winnie

Battle Log of Operation 513 for Toowong on Tuesday 22/2/2022 from 1330 to 1500

Praise and thanks God that Bo Yun continued to turn up joining us against all odd as such we had a team of four for today Street outreach. I encourage Bu Yun 卜昀 to take Kairos as it is the most essential biblical discipleship driven cross cultural outreach training course giving you all the biblical basis to support day to day cross culture evangelism by all lay Christian. I encourage Bo Yun to make the step of faith to reach out with a belief that God will be with you when you make this step of faith.

When we got to the bus stop it was with a long queue lining up around the street corner. Each of us just randomly picked one in the queue to share. The queue however disappeared fairly quickly once the bus arrived one after the other. We got back to the normal status waiting at the bus stop to catch up with whoever coming for the bus. Rejection rate was above average high. But I assured Bo Yun, this is part of the training that God wants us to go through to do our best to outreach but prepare for the worse of a blunt rejection. Any better response is a bonus including polite rejection but you still can give it a go to make friend first. As I still needed to spend sometime to take care of our team members photo shot and sharing experience with Bo Yun, I relatively had less chats than normal which is recap as below: -

1. Sheaver, an Indonesia girl of 2nd year UQ student, appeared very open to have a chat on religious issue. She was in full agreement that being a good person is not good enough for heaven. She also has the concept of perfection of life without sin. I almost doubt she is a disguised Muslin by dress but a real Christian by heart. It was a pity I could not find out more her real religious affiliation and quickly summarized with her the core of the gospel that we all need Jesus to take away the punishment of our sin.

2. Alecia a local Aussie, who appeared a bit indifferent, but still let me share until the bus came.

3. Porches a Christian first handed a tract by Bo Yun. I though he was rejected but when I turned around to face her, she gave me a big smile behind the mask welcoming for a chat. So, I then found out she is a Christian and the result of diagnosis was good. She is a fair dinkum Christian with full assurance of salvation and knew it was all because of the redemptive grace of Jesu taking our place to receive the punishment of sin originally due on us. She is a fresh Uni year one student and she attends the Kingdom Church.

4. Then I caught with a Girl from Yang Zhou, China揚州.中國. She is fresh Uni year 1 student一年級.I got connected with her through my early age China exploration trip to area near her home town. She anyway also appeared open to the Gospel.

5. John a local Aussie rejected me initially but cannot reject me to approach him as a friend. So eventually I still could share the full gospel in a nutshell to him.

6. Then I caught up with a Caribbean Indian girl, she looked curious and friendly to have a chat with me. Full gospel was shared and she obviously was impressed by the word of God.

7. The I was rejected by a Muslim lady yet she still kept a friendly gesture to decline my second attempt to share and chat,

8. Finally, I was rejected bluntly by a Nigeria Muslim who did not even want to take a tract. Yet my sincerity to share the message I deem important softened him to listen to all I continue to share before the bus came.

Battle Log of Operation 513 at Toowong on Tuesday Feb 15, 2020 1330 - 1500

After a rest of 42 days or 6 weeks, because partially of Omicron but mostly my surgical need of treatment for bladder cancer and subsequently a prostate trimming operation, the Toowong team of three Johnny, Winnie and Hung have regrouped today for a fresh start. Praise and thanks God new blood was introduced by Rev Kiateck Tan of CCCB St Lucia Ryan Chinese Congregation. They are all BST students but all seeking to have their ministry practicum be done at SCCC as such Rev Kiateck Tan arranged them to have a taste of Street Outreach by joining us at Toowong. They are Amanda Liu from Hill Song, Alice Wu and Po Yuan from SCCC. Each of us take care of one BST student. Johnny partner with Po Yuan to do outreach at the Main Entrance of Toowong Village while the rest went to the Bus stop across the Road. I spent a lot of time to brief first Alice than Amanda the biblical ground for street outreach to share gospel indiscriminative to people of all nations. The rationale is from Matt 5:13-15 that Christians should all be acting as priest to bring people to Christ in a visible way as if we are the light and salt for witness Christ. And it is not only for the single purpose of sowing the seed of Gospel, but more importantly to experience how to work with God to overcome any difficulty in crossing all sort of barrier to preach the gospel as such God will help us growth during this process making us more mature spiritually day by day till we are transformed back to perfection which After all is the promise of God as per Eph 4:10. I have to help them to put aside the Chinese typical way of evangelism that it must be ended by bringing the gospel target to Christ ending in a prayer. In Operation 513 code of ministry, we are forbidden to force our way to pressurize the gospel target to make an instance decision on the spot and then we lead them to Christ by a Prayer of repentance. Instead, we will encourage them to take it easy to go home , re-read the gospel tract and tell God their decision if they are really moved to accept Christ. I do pray that, the three BST student first street outreach experience will give them motivation and momentum to keep coming next week.

The time left for me to do my own outreach was much less as recap below: -

1) Gabriel is a fresh year one UQ student going to attend the market day of the Orientation week. He was a bit apprehended initially if he should chat with me when he noticed it is about gospel and Christianity as he has formed some negative thought about it. I asked him for an example and he said Christianity is immoral to use animal sacrifice to achieve religious purpose. No animal should be killed, I said to him, it is only a symbolism that God used to foretell how Jesus will offer himself as the sacrificial lamb to die for us and shoulder all the punishment of sin originally due on us. He then criticize why God does not make human not able to sin. I patiently explain to him God is great in creation of human as a relational being with free will to choose to love God or disobey Him. Otherwise, a man without free will but preprogramed to do only good thing is a soulless robot as such will be incapable of building interaction and relationship with God and other fellow human being. First Human failed the test and have brought the world to a fallen state infringing the glory of God. It is the predestine knowledge of God that through His dual Kingdom and Salvation Project as per Gen 3:15, to be kicked off by Jesus through dying on the cross, will bring salvation to repentant sinners and bring restoration of this fallen world back into His Kingdom. The bus came at this point I time and I trusted that God will have further work on this young man who still care to ask questions to get clarification on the Christian faith.

2) Then I approached a Chinese guy with Amanda watching on the side. This guy is from Hongkong but actually migrated to Hong Kong from mainland as such he can speak Mandarin. He showed off he has a Bible at home and has the habit to read it every now and then. But the bottom line is , he is not yet a Christian and don not yet understand salvation. I did my best to share with him the core of the gospel, but he seems not fully concentrated in listening and understand the gospel but side track along the way to avoid the issue of sin. He also tried to distract our conversation to ask if I do this as my vocation. Thus, it was no surprised he did not listen clearly and completely the full gospel by the time the bus came. I told Amanda, even this divine encounter was not considered as a successful one. But God will not let thing happened without a purpose. He will keep pursuing this self-smart guy until he surrenders to accept Christ line myself at the age of 40.

3) The I approached a black person I thought is from Africa but actually he is from New Zealand. The timing was again not right and I could only manage to share him the nutshell of the gospel stressing that no one got saved unless one is perfect, or else both bad guys and good guys all need Christ.

4) Jack is a fair dinkum Christian having hundred percent assurance of salvation. But when asked deeper the biblical basis of it, he still need some explanation on the three-fold salvation package of God. Hence receiving Christ alone as our saviour to let him shoulder our punishment of sin will grant us instantly the heavenly citizenship or being justified to become God’s children. Yet it is only a change of our eternal identity, but the essence of our life has yet to be changed and transformed back to perfection. This is the point of confusion misleading most Christian to feel unsure about the fact that we are 100% save and can go to heaven in future despite we are still not perfect after we are accepted back as God’s citizen. Because it is God’s promise to complete his job to make us perfect ultimately by serving and working with Hm on God’s mission. I was a bit surprise Jack seems to have not Regular Christen affiliation with either a church group or with Christian fellowship like Power to Change. I pray that God will lead him to continue with his journey of sanctification.

Operation 513 Battle Log for Toowong on Tuesday January 4th , 2022 from 1330 – 1500

After just a week of rest for the last week of 2021, Winnie and Hung decided to resume our weekly outreach at Toowong in the beginning of 2020 as a gesture our steadfast commitment to put God first in doing His work to preach the Gospel to people of all Nations. The weather fluctuated drastically during our short ministry hours, with scorching sun burning hot the cement ground like a furnace at a moment, and a cosy shaded sky at another moment. The human flow was much less due to Uni terms break and the rapid growth of Omicron cases. Often time, only one person turned up as such I normally will let Winnie to handle it. Despite of all these, the evidences of God’s work through us were prominent. Recap below are the Battle Log of Hung and Winnie: -

I approached two ladies with one Aussie look and another Asian look. Nancy the Aussie Look girl said she got my tract before but I initially treated it as an excuse not to chat so I turned to the Asian girl whom I though is Chinese but I was wrong. When I shared the gospel to her using analogy of operation theatre that it has to be germless for the well fare sake of the patient, as if God is asking us to be perfect as the ultimate requirement to heaven, Nancy interject with a comment that perfection in God’s terms is we have to be sinless. I was overjoyed to hear that as she has really got and understood the message with the ability to add comment at the suitable time. Then the bus came and I pat on the shoulder of Nancy that now you can share what you have learnt from me to your Asian friend possibly a Korean girl.

Ricardo was an UQ student from Mexico who was indifferent to my approach for gospel sharing. But once I connected with him that my father was born in Mexico and I still have some relatives living in Mexico, then he turned 180 degrees appearing very receptive for a chat. Prise and thanks God I could have sufficiently long time to share about the salvation brought by Jesus and my own testimony. At the end, he was more than delighted to take a photo with me and promised to read the tract and ponder seriously the need to accept Jesus.

Trisha turned up while I was talking with Ricardo and waited for her turn to have our final conversation before she and her family relocate to Sydney next week. God makes us friend and she was impressed by our steadfast faith and commitment to share the good news. She seriously asked me to pray for herself a pregnant mum, her family, her husband and her young son.

Then I met up with Mr Tang鄧，from Guang Zhou廣州，so he is Cantonese speaking.粵 It was a pity the bus came almost right away that I can only leave with him the conclusion that no one can go to heaven unless you are perfect.

Finally I approached an Indian girl who politely indicated to me to wait until she finished her phone call. The Chance was thrashed by the arrival of the bus so all I can do was to hand her a tract.

4/1/2022, Toowong 感謝 神今天的带领，讓我遇到有澳洲人，中國人，香港人，印度人及斐濟群島女士。他們有的是基督徒，有的是未認識耶穌基督的。希望籍着 神的大能，讓我不配的口與他們今天的對話，使他們更加明白主的愛。感謝讚美主！
