Why We Go

 

The following are just a few of the experiences we have had as we GO out in the world and look to proclaim Jesus Christ crucified. I post them here to edify and encourage you in the truth, all to help spur you on in your walk. Enjoy....

Here is one small example how God uses a willing vessel. 


I saw this mans camper with a bike rack shaking, almost falling off. I went to talk to him about it and he thanked me. I asked where he is headed and he said they are camp site hosts and they were headed to Maine for a new for the summer. I shared the gospel to eternal life with him and he thanked me again, then we parted ways. Another precious soul I encountered on this gospel road journey. 

********************************************


* We were in a empty parking lot and a 71 year old man pulled up and we talked for 1 hour. He said he had asked God to send someone to help him in his walk! We covered much in biblical topics and we started to text and encourage each other daily after that to help him in the faith.

Eric Kilgore Music Exposed

I learned of a false music ministry and I was able to reach out to the man and warn him of his great error.

we pray he repents....

*********************************************

*I dropped sister debbie off at a store and felt I should park farther away in another parking lot. In 3 minutes a older man from Africa came up and we talked of Christ. He was a ex muslim and he told me we reminded him of missionaires in Africa when he was a small child. They were people in van too and they did not live like the culture nor look like it. He was kind of down on life but he was now greatly encouraged (as was I) Then he got a hug and a bible that he needed. He told me many amazing stories about his own walk and he believed our meeting was of God that day.  


**********************************

*We had some business to take care of (we do some remote online work on the road to pay for gas and things) and a tattoo'd young hispanic man saw our van and he said he really liked it. Later, I saw him spraying weeds so I went up and shared the gospel with him. Turns out he said that he had just left the gang life and was asking God what he should do next? I shared hope with him and I asked if he needed a bible then he smiled and said yes sir. I encouraged him, gave him my phone number and we parted ways. 


God is so good to use us often as He does!!!!!


That is why we GO and look to tell of Christ / His truth. We just cannot meet these people face to face or learn of what we do while sitting on our peaceful porch in Missouri. To God be the glory as I am sure that He sets these all up.

May 15 2021

* We camped at a truck stop and in the morning I saw a drifter sitting on the curb by a Subway shop. I went up and spoke to him about his travels, life and of course the gospel. 


It turns out he was 30 years old, lost in his own selfish ways, sin and idleness of life. He willingly admitted it all to me and I was able to help him, show him some care/love and give him the gospel truth. He thanked me as I told him the danger he was in lest he repent, be made new to then serve Jesus.


Before it was over, he asked me for a real bible as he had this NIV fake one. I was able to help him out there and I tossed this one in the garbage where it belongs. We hugged and parted ways.....



*I was starting my day off and a I saw a trucker who had parked close to us at night. Thankfully he shut is truck off as they often run all night and are noisy! I went up to thank him for his quiet ways and he smiled. Then he told me he hauls wind turbine parts all over the country. He got a thank you from sister Debbie and I for his trucking work and the gospel of course. He was thrilled and thanked me then off he went down the road!

 

*We rolled into a new town and held gospel signs. I had a strange man watch for a long time till he came up to ask about salvation. It turned ugly as he was drunk, demonic or both? He began to cuss and swear, I thought he was going to attack me. Thankfully I told him to not get so angry, I shared a bit more truth with him. In the end, I was thankful I got out of that situation unscathed. (it can be dangerous out here!)



*We were rolling down the road and we needed gas / ice. The regular station was packed so; I pulled into a tiny store I normally would not stop at. 

The store worker saw our van gospel signs and she gave me FREE ice. Of course she got the gospel and then there was a van load of Amish that pulled up. I went to inform them of the truth about Jesus and inform/then ask them to repent of their many false man made traditions. They listened, had no reply/rebuttal, they took tracts and we parted ways. Sadly they are spiritually dead and lack so much regarding bible truth. See the Amish exposed here for many sins with many articles:

Strive on all you saints of the Lord....

The Homeless Man in Oklahoma and Why We Go

 


When you travel full time and do what my wife and I do (street preach across America) you have to be strong inside and endure many hardships, dangers, unsavory, ugly and discouraging things. To keep pushing on; of course we draw on the Lord's strength via the Spirit (Romans 8) But there is also for me, a man, I admit a certain boldness / some would say a hardness that is taken on or you will be too fragile, fail and fall back in the face of all the adversity out here. I normally am not moved/effected on the spot in my heart felt emotions as I have to keep on task. I always do ponder it all later but wisdom tells me most all of these men "choose" this life and we reap what we sow. Today I was challenged in my emotions by a homeless man on the spot and let me explain!

We went to street preach outside of a Salvation Army place in Oklahoma on their Thanksgiving day. It was in a homeless area of town and they were all around. You can see the ugliness of those so called Christians and some good witnessing on video here:

http://spiritandtruthdiscernment.blogspot.com/2019/11/salvation-army-and-its-sin.html

We had some nasty opposition from the Salvation Army workers who hate God's full truth (they got angry and called the police and one man drove his car right at us) so it was a stress filled day but God was glorified. As we were winding the day down (preaching the gospel to all who would hear on the sidewalk) I saw an older man walking so frail, alone and walking slow as he went to get some food there. As he was leaving, I reaching out to him and said would you like a gospel card to find eternal life sir? He stopped and I though he would then turn and walk right by but; he turned to come get it. As he got close, I could see his condition and it was not good. He was very dirty, he smelled, he had a few very brown teeth and his face was covered with what appeared to me to be many meth sores. (drug use) Our eyes met and it was a moment of great emotion for me to come. Most homeless do not get close to you, or look you in the eye but this man did. For a brief moment we had a connection and I could see his eyes were so dark, so very sad and deep in his face. I could not help but see distress and pain all over him. He was the picture of a very hard life with MANY bad decisions made, that I am sure. I introduced myself and my wife and he gave us his name. I told him that God would receive him and the gospel is good news if he will embrace it. He then said the Salvation Army does not teach us about God at all. I warned him about man made false places like it and encouraged him to read his bible to find God's kingdom and eternal life in Christ. He got a gospel card with our phone number and a offer of help for him to leave the streets. He thanked me and as he turned to go, I told him I loved him. He stopped, turned back, looked me right in the eye and said I love you too. He then shook my hand we smiled at each other on the street. Then he walked off down the sidewalk back into his dark, lonely and sad life. 

I have dealt with hundreds of homeless men in the streets face to face and loved them with food and the gospel. But this encounter really hit me to my emotional core, way deep inside. I was still street preaching but was moved to tears, not becoming of a tough street preacher huh? (that is not common for me in public just ask my wife) I care about them all but the truth is you have to keep going out here or you will be buried in sadness and despair. Yet for some reason with this man; I started thinking about all his pain, how did he get to that place, how does he sleep in the cold, did he have family and what would become of him? Oh I know; he is choosing that hard life still as my phone is not ringing for help. But it is rare when these men look you in the eye and you can have connection, even as brief as we did. As I pondered why I was so affected by him it hit me. I said ah Lord, I see it.  First, that could have been me as I made so many bad choices before you were guiding me. I saw myself in him like never before. Second, I knew God used this man to pull me inline and in compassion; something you can lose in the daily battle. I felt almost guilty that I was in a better place then this poor soul as I am no better and I DO NOT DESERVE where I am today. I wanted to run down the street, catch up to him and scoop him up to a better life, but I know better. Men must repent, choose Christ and most seem to get so low, they never choose to get out. It is my prayer we gave him some hope and love to do so? These men really need repentance, the biblical gospel with a changed heart and mind and the good news is waiting there for him as a great help, as I am. 

These corrupt unbiblical places like Salvation Army do NOT care for the souls of men as they only fill the belly for a time. Oh they may help you off drugs but they know nothing of filling a man's mind and heart with the power of the true gospel of Jesus Christ to eternal life. I was so thankful I got to meet this man face to face and give him the hope of glory in Christ Jesus. I will never forget him or the look in his dark deep sad eyes that spoke to me!

Our ministry must march on, we will leave tomorrow and go to many more towns across America and preach the good news to thousands more people, who we pray will listen. I will meet hundreds more homeless sad men.  But I cannot forget this homeless man as God has used him in a special way. I now know it is to keep me lowly, humble, "soft and sensitive" and as a street preacher/evangelist on the evil front lines in these last days, for that I am ever so grateful!

Thank you Lord ......

Psalm 136 

O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

O give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 To him who alone doeth great wonders: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 To him that by wisdom made the heavens: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy endureth for ever.

 To him that made great lights: for his mercy endureth for ever:


God be praised

Why We GO For Christ!



                                 
Want to know why we sold everything and decided to live in our van and travel full time to ... GO... for the Lord?

 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives
Luke 4:18

Today we drove into a new state as we roll on being van dwellers preaching Christ. It was getting dark and rainy outside, we walked into a place to work online on our ministry website and I looked at the other table a very sad looking man stared at me. He saw my computer bag that says repent and find eternal life. He was crying and I went to talk with him. He had been drinking, was homeless, had gone through a divorce, lost his family/everything and he was just getting ready to leave the place ....to go kill himself! 

 God's timing was perfect!

 I sat and counseled him in the Lord's Word/gospel, answered his questions, he cried out/prayed to God quietly and I gave him our card, some hope and a reason to live on..... all because of Christ!   
We were able to help him get a safe place to rest & sober up and I am hoping he calls me to get more encouragement. 
Glory to God at least for this night, one soul was snatched from satan's lies/death, now he has a chance to run to Jesus and live!
This is why we....... GO!

 Jesus said.... These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
John 16:33
