One of my favorite salvation stories is when a man brought his beer in one hand and his cigarette in the other hand into the booth to find out about the “3 things God cannot do.”
The Holy Spirit led him to accept Christ as His Lord and Savior for the very first time that day. After he prayed he said (matter-of-factly): “You know, I’ve been thinking about not drinking as much.”
The soulwinner replied, “I like sweet tea. It’s pretty good.”
Love that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ and how God immediately works through the Holy Spirit to change our hearts once we give them to Him. You don’t have to change and get all dressed up to come to God. Come to God and He’ll do all the changing needed.
NOTE: This guy was NOT drunk. We do not give the gospel presentation to anyone who appears to be mentally/physically/emotionally unable to understand the gospel presentation. Just give them tracts and pray for them.
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
