Hope Closet - Jan 2008

This past weekend went we were able to get a couple of witnessing encounters on video.

Please forgive us for the audio (I know, that excuse is getting old!), it's not the greatest. We are however, working hard on correcting our process.

In this first video, Kevin is speaking with a lady named Marsha. He starts off by asking her a few questions to get an idea how she views God and eventually reveals that she's trusting in her own goodness to save her. Kevin uses God's moral law to bring the knowledge of sin (Rom 7:7) and shows her that she is in desperate need of His forgiveness. Please keep Marsha in prayer.




In this second video, Travis is witnessing to Ron and his family. He starts off by asking questions to reveal their beliefs about God, which is a very good indicator of the person's beliefs on sin and salvation. It's important when witnessing to not only ask questions, but let the person answer without challenging them every single time. Take a few moments to understand what they believe and why they believe it, regardless if they profess to be a Christian or not. I would venture to say the majority of those you meet on the street, who name the name of Christ, who call themselves Christians, could not tell you "why God should allow them into Heaven" or "what they have been saved from"? Asking probing questions could expose a false convert and help bring them to repentance and faith. Please keep Ron and his family in prayer.





To Him alone be the glory!
