From the Field: This past week, by God's grace, several of us set aside spent Tuesday and Thursday lunch hours in the campus center. First, praise God for His faithfulness, raising up laborers, and allowing us to go! Next, thank you to each of you who came! It was a blessing to have many encounters with students who were willing to talk and listen to the law and Gospel. Specifically, on Tuesday there was a group of four younger students who engaged with us in conversation, which we steered to God's concepts of law and justice. Then upon that foundation, we were able to explain God's God-Centered Good News, magnifying His glory and His love. Also, Thursday, we were blessed to meet younger guys who were familiar with false Gospels, but had never understood either their place before God or the fact that they couldn't do anything to change it. They both grew quiet under the testimony of their conscience that it's not just what they've done that's been evil in God's sight, it's who they've been. (Christ's words in Matthew 7:16-20 is powerful to help people realize this.) Then, we were able to explain Jesus' free grace. All in all, most we encountered many groups who had never heard the true Gospel.
Issues we especially dealt with were:
God's justice
His law
God deserves them to repent and believe
The difference between the Gospel and the Gospel call to repent and believe it.
The nature of justification
Please keep praying for us and our hearers. That we would be be joyfully bold and obedient, and that they would be brought to God through Christ.
