Battle Log of Operation 513 at Toowong on Tuesday Sep 2, 2025 from 1030-1200

After a slightly tiring Walk the Wall yesterday, I was a bit empty in energy as well as in mind as such I forgot to bring my iPhone to the street outreach. Thanks to Johnny he still was able to take a couple of phots for me, especially for a very interesting and important chat that was imitated by an fallen ex-Catholic. He overheard my gospel sharing with an Indonesian Islamic lady and felt that my passion of evangelism was driven by my insufficient or incorrect knowledge about the Christian God. He purposely skipped his bus and sat down with me to challenge me if God is all knowing that human will sin against Him, why he still bothered to create human that is destined for eternal death in hell. My apologetic feedback went this way; Yes God is all knowing, as such he knew the fallen angels are all beyond redemption even given chance for them to repent. Actually , the rebellious angels turned Satan have been defeated and casted down to abbyid of the earth before 6 days creation where it was a place of all darkness without light. God gave them a chance to seduced and tempted human which He created in His 6 days creation. His fore knowledge knew that with free will human may fail momentarily to the temptation of Satan and sinned against God, but through the agape love that God has shown to human even when they have all become enemy of God, to the extent even sending His begotten son to be born to die for us on the cross and descended to hell to make himself available to be our Savior taking our place to receive the punishment of eternal death. So through His all knowing character, He is certain that fallen human will eventually be moved by the sacrificial love of God and be benefited by His atoning grace to reconcile with God and resume the unfinished development of mutually loving relationship between God and Human into eternity.

I complimented this guy for his eagerness to get his mystery about God and His mission clarified by rational and fair dialogue. He was glad for this chat and indicated he would like to chat with me if God let us meet again.

I had many other interesting dialogue, for example, with an Australian born Sri Lanka girl who happened to be also a Catholic Christian but lacking assurance of salvation. Then a chat with an Indian matured age man who enlightened me with a knowledge that the Caste system was invented by the British, but I questioned him why the highest caste is all the Priest or Brahman,

a member of the highest Hindu caste, that of the priesthood. He shocked me saying actually it was not true, in every social class, they all should play the role of Priest which aligned with the Biblical teaching of Priesthood of all Believers. In retrospect, I think I should have asked if he is readily a Christian.

Anyway, it was a very interesting and fruitful outreach.

It was a warm Spring liked end of Winter day. The fresh and sunny weather gave every one at the bus stop a fresher and cheerful mood. God led us to have conversation to both new people and some having chatted before even last week. It gave us chance to do follow up check to reinforce the message that all good person as long as not perfect, we all need an external agent to save us from eternal disqualification for a heavenly citizenship. All those who heard the gospel all appeared receptive and affirming the rationale that all the good persons, as long as they are not perfect, all need an external agents , who is Jesus Christ, the Son of God to incarnate as a perfect human being but not belonging to the fallen human race, to come and die for us as such in hell he took our place to receive the eternal death punishment to set our imperfect sin record straight and cleaned without sin anymore.

Pray that all who heard the gospel will be led to Christ by God's gracious election, in His time.

Despite of the extraordinary winter chill, it was another big day of street outreach at Toowong by Johnny and Hung teaming up to be on mission with God. Majority of the gospel sharing faced friendly and open heart reception. God used us to share with both non-believers from Muslim, Hinduism , Buddhism and even atheist background and Christians from both Catholic and protestant camp. It was so good that even people of other religions and even atheist now accepted that all human are not perfect as such we all lost the right to be the people of the divine Kingdom again unless we can let a perfect human to be our Saviour, taking our place to receive the punishment of our sin as such our sins are all pardon with record reset to zero. It makes those repentant persons to become a new Creation because of Jesus redemptive grace through His atoning death. As for Christians, majority do not have 100% assurance of salvation, but all felt so grateful, once clarified that despite we are all not yet perfect, but through the effective work of Jesus dying for our sin, we all have 100% certainty that the God's people identity have been granted back to us. On this foundation made through Jesus redemptive work, God can kick off His sovereign life transforming work in our life through the work of the Holy Spirit. Overall speaking, many street outreach targets were willing to take a selfie with me to symbolize their affirmation to the gospel message and appreciation for our heart to share them the truth of God in terms of His dual Kingdom and Salvation Project and the ultimate consummation of the heavenly kingdom on earth into the new heaven and new earth eternal status.

Today, Edwin was still not available due to car break down. So only Johnny and Hung teamed up at Toowong. It again was a fruitful time for us to reach out to non-believers from different cultures and other religions as well as Christians from different denomination/background. One good thing is Johnny asked me to get a name card of Kenneth from Power to Change so that people can approach them for help to pursue further on the ground/foundation we built.

As for me, today was mainly a Christian apologetic day. Apart from a few non-believers from Beijing and Hunan Changsha of Mainland China and one Muslim girl from Kuwait, I met Christians of different background, ie. born from a South Indian Christian family, Catholic, Orthodox and protestant from Baptist and Presbyterian background. Amongst all these 5 or six Christians, only one young girl professes the correct understand of faith with 100% assurance of Salvation in Christ alone. She actually came for a Christian conference held at UQ campus. So, the teaching of the churches seem to be far not clear and good enough to nurture all new converts to have the unshakable foundation of Christian bottom-line doctrine of faith.

It was a day full of grace and surprised, especially for Johnny. He started off encountering strong resistance having been rejected for any chat for the first 4 to 5 person along the long queue for bus. He immediately resorted to a prayer of SOS, and then God showed Johnny His grace and the power of the Gospel, the following two gospel target all responded overtly and willing to receive Christ as their Savior on the spot, one is Asian from unknow place but very good in English, another is from Indonesian with some Chinese blood. Both genuinely repent and received Christ on the spot with Johnny witnessing and praying for the conversion. It was a miracle that only God can perform.

As for me, I was sort of smooth sailing with a clear pattern. Apart from the chats with first a local nonbeliever Aussie David and last an Indian Christian Danelle, all the rest are with Cantonese background people from Guangdong and Guangxi province. They were not behaving like typical mainlander taking an avoidance approach but all embrace the gospel with an open mind and receptive hearts. May all Glory be to God.

Johnny joined me again at Toowong after his overseas trip back to Brisbane. It was a fine day to Johnny as compares to the hot and timid whether in Taipei. Both had many divine appointments sharing gospel to people of all Nations including New Zealander, Mainlander Shanghai girl, Hong-Konger cap, Malaysia Girl , James from the Gold Coast and Carolina from Portugal. All of them appeared open and receptive though all of them are non-believers.

Not sure if UQ finished the terms break. There were not many people flow but still managed to catch up with several persons including a longer chat with a Japanese girl, a couples from Taiwan and one from Mainland China. Others were just short chats interrupted by the arriving buses. Qin Hao was not available today due to academic appointment with Lecturer and Johnny is yet to come back by week end.

It was a chill winter morning. People flow at the Toowong bus stop was low. I anyhow managed to chat with a couple of Indian origin people including a Singaporean and Islander plus first an Indonesian Muslim girl. They were all open and receptive to the gospel message from a non-religious point of view admitting that all human are not perfect though in general good, but has already been disqualified by the rule of zero record requirement on Crime by secular government and on sin by the spiritual heavenly kingdom. The only one can save us isSon of God Jesus Christ who incarnated as a perfect human being but not of the fallen human race. He died for us all and has vowed to take our place to receive the eternal death punishment of our sin, yet he rose from death three day afterwards showing he has conquered the power of death and defeated Satan as such he has the capacity to forgive our sin by issuing a sin free certificate that in effect clean our record of sin to zero making us a new creation to be right with God right away. This is a logical inference that no one can rebuke. Pray that those who heard this version of gospel will be moved to accept Jesus as their Savior and Lord of life.

Today, I still did my Toowong street gospel outreach by my self instead of with Edwin who originally was free to come due to term break but suddenly became unavailable due to unexpected kid's medical appointment. I also had to cut it short because of my wife medical appointment in the noon time.

Nevertheless, I still had a couple of good and long enough chat with an Indian couples and a young man from Hebei. They were all open and receptive and shared the point I explained to them that even one record of crime will disqualify us for migration to Australia, likewise even just one sin record is enough to set us apart from God losing our heavenly citizenship. As long as we admit that we are not perfect, there is an established need for us to seek help from a perfect being which does not exist in the fallen human race. So it could only be Jesus Christ the son of God who came by virgin birth to incarnate as a perfect human but does not belong to the fallen human race. His mission as planned and prophesized by God as the offspring of woman will come to defeat Satan, by dying on the Cross to be the sacrificial lamb to take our place to receive the eternal death punishment of our sin. Thence the moment we accepted Him as our savior our sin is deemed punished and the record of our sin is reset to zero making us look as a sin free new creation to be right with God and be granted back our long lost heavenly citizenship. The three gospel targets all found no reason to repudiate this Gospel message or rationale to transform us back to a pure and sin free new creation to be right with God and become His children again.

After a couples of rainy day, we had a fairy windy day making the temperature appeared a bit chilling but luckily with a Sunny sky above. It made a good day to outreach though with lesser people flow during term break.

There were an Indian dad playing hide and seek with his troller daughter full of joy and laughter that I felt too inappropriate to interrupt them. But it set the tone for the day that people should be introduced back to our heavenly Father to live a Child like life to be affectionately close to our Father.

All approaches for gospel conversation basically were pleasant and Spirit led with positive result. I was led to chat with a Canadian young man called Faith and a Kiwi youngster, then full gospel chats with a Vietnamese girl and Peddia an Iranian lady who is nonreligious, but open and receptive to the gospel message especially Jesus as our Savior.

Pray that all people heard the gospel will eventually be blessed to receive Christ in God's timing
