Girl On The Left Says She Is A Satanist
Girl Said I’m A Satanist
Ministry Update October 25, 2020
The wind was really cold Friday night when Kelly, Conner and I witnessed downtown. We didn’t have any mockers while we were open-air preaching. I got there first and handed out Gospel tracts. Most people rejected them, but a few took one. Kelly and Conner both handed out more tracts than I did. Kelly in particular seemed to get some takers. But he had rejections as well. One couple walked by and Kelly tried to hand the guy a tract, but he said he didn’t want to take his hands out of his pockets (because of the cold). Then three people rejected his offer; one girl said, “I’m a Satanist.” While were discussing it, Conner said we too were Satanist before we were saved. Even though we normally don’t think of it this way, Conner is right. When you aren’t following Jesus, you are following Satan, whether you know it or not.
Less Students Than Normal
Rejected
I took a different path walking to the witnessing spot at Missouri State University on Wednesday. Hoping new students would take Gospel tracts. But to my surprise, the first 10 students rejected tracts before the first one took a tract. Then about 10 more rejected them afterwards. After I brought a message, more students took tracts. But as I thought about being rejected by so many students, the Bible verse in Isaiah 53:3 came to mind – how Jesus was despised and rejected by men. Not only was Jesus rejected, He was brutally beaten too. So being rejected or mocked for the name of Christ, really isn’t a big deal. I was surprised that there were even less students walking around that the week before. Last week seemed like only about a one-third of the normal students and this week was more like one-fourth. But the truth goes forth whether there are many or just a few that hear. May God be glorified either way.
