Day 125

Past few days have been full of making new relationships, going to new places, and sharing the gospel. The best times are in the evenings when, just like at home, college students are relaxed and out in the town hanging out. It's easier to share in the evenings because it's cooler outside, and the students don't have to worry about class for the rest of the day. We've met students on the street, in restaurants, and in pool halls. A couple nights ago we found a Muslim man who said there is no God. When I asked him about it his eyes got wide. Evidently I was talking too loud about his new found faith in nothing. He talked about corruption, logic, reason, and science. I was glad to use every one of those as a bridge to the Gospel. The Lord was bringing things to mind from scripture for every argument he had. 2 Corinthians 10:5 was the theme verse of that conversation, though I never brought it to this guys attention. By the time we finished, this guy he was ready to quit, because every reply and reason he brought up with science and logic, we came back with an answer from scripture. After replying with scripture to every argument, we were able to share the gospel, and how God can love people from such a corrupt world.
Tonight we met with a couple guys who heard us talking about a treasure we had found. They found us after dinner and we invited them back to the guest house where we talked and shared for over an hour. Before leaving they were both glad to receive a copy of the NT.
This afternoon we got in touch with our mime friend who we met last week. He had called us yesterday wanting to know more about Jesus. After we had finished going through John 3 we went to watch some of his mime rehearsal at a school. Before we left he asked if we could meet again because he still wanted to know more. Our Jmen told us that guys who are really interested in following Jesus gain as much knowledge that they can before making a decision. He said it was to be ready for questions that people would ask and argue. Pray for this guy. He is seeking.
