Veteran Meets Christ

June 6, 2014

Afghan war vet meets Jesus @ Auburndale, FL Flea Mkt: Ben, 31, from Smithburg, MD was visiting his mother. After soundly defeating him in arm wrestling, Randy Mlinek had the joy of sharing the Gospel with Ben. He was unchurched doubted if God could ever forgive him for what he had done. When he heard how some Bible heroes had committed serious sins and were still forgiven by God, he realized the Grace of God could in fact forgive him too. Ben said, “I believe God brought me to Florida just so I could talk to you today.” In repentance, Ben asked Jesus Christ to forgive and save his soul.

Luke 14:23
And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.

How Shall They Hear

May 27, 2014

Robert 30, from Babson Park, FL (about 45 minutes S/E of Auburndale) is unchurched. His wife is a Christian who faithfully attends church. Robert “saw” a presentation of the Gospel this Easter as he went to a Passion Play with his wife, in Lake Wales, FL. Robert said he was moved to tears at the message but there was no invitation or instructions on how to respond; to become a Saved, Born Again Christian. Today he readily responded with tears in his eyes. God had prepared Robert’s heart for salvation as they visited family this Memorial Day weekend.

Romans 10:14
How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

Ordered steps

January 21, 2014

Tom and I had many things to do on Sunday so we decided to go to the early service at church.
After church we had about one hour before our appointment so we had time to go to the gas station to fill up and stop for a cup of coffee.
When we got to the gas station it looked busy so we went for coffee first.
Returning to the gas station, every pump was in use so we had to wait.
Finally there was a pump free so as Tom pulled up, I got out to pump gas. (Tom has a harder time getting in and out of the car because of a bad knee)
We have a sign on the back of our window that says “DO YOU KNOW THE 3 THINGS GOD CANNOT DO?”
A man was at the next gas pump and asked, “Do you have a church?”
I replied, “No, but we do have a ministry that tells people how they can go to Heaven.”
After he asked a few more questions, I told him the “3 things.”
1. GOD CAN NOT LIE. 2. GOD CANNOT CHANGE 3. GOD CAN NOT LET ANYONE INTO HEAVEN UNLESS THEY ARE BORN AGAIN.
“Are you 50, 75 or 100% sure if you died today you would go to Heaven?”
He was not sure but wanted to be so as I explained how he needed to A. Admit he was a sinner, B. Jesus died on the cross for his sins and C. He needed to call on The Lord to save him.
I wanted Tom to pray with Emile, so I motioned for him to get out of the car as I asked, ” Would you be willing to call on The Lord with me right now?”
His answer was affirmative, so the 3 of us held hands and Tom led him in a prayer for salvation.
Emile was wonderfully saved.
He is a businessman who travels all over the world and his home country is the Ukraine. God brought him to that gas station at that time so he could hear the Gospel and be saved.
Psalms 37:23
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord:
and he delighteth in his way.
