Joy in Heaven

April 21, 2016

  Eight people made decisions for Jesus at the Plant City, Fl flea market yesterday. Thanks to Dena for the picture of a mother and daughter who were saved.

Luke 15:7 I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.

My Hope

April 19, 2016

My hope is built on nothing lessThan Jesus’ blood and righteousness.

I dare not trust the sweetest frame,

But wholly trust in Jesus’ Name.
Refrain
On Christ the solid Rock I stand,

All other ground is sinking sand;

All other ground is sinking sand.
When darkness seems to hide His face,

I rest on His unchanging grace.

In every high and stormy gale,

My anchor holds within the veil.
Refrain
His oath, His covenant, His blood,

Support me in the whelming flood.

When all around my soul gives way,

He then is all my Hope and Stay.
Refrain
When He shall come with trumpet sound,

Oh may I then in Him be found.

Dressed in His righteousness alone,

Faultless to stand before the throne.
Refrain

This wonderful old hymn is so true. Jesus is everything to the Christian. In Him we put all our hope. He is our rock and our salvation.

1 Thessalonians 5:9

For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

What’s New?

April 17, 2016

Sunday begins a new week, it is a new day, an opportunity to start a new life in Jesus for those who have never had their sins forgiven. God gives us a new heart when we accept Jesus as our Savior. He turns darkness to light, sadness to joy, and sinner to Saint. 

Everyday is a new day to draw closer to God and be more like Him. Are we perfect? No, but we are forgiven.

And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Colossians 3:10

Repentance

April 16, 2016

“Prayer is the most powerful resource we have in this life; yet many only turn to it as a last resort. When unbelievers pray for repentance of sin and ask for God’s forgiveness, prayer is the spiritual dynamite that obliterates the darkness and despair of a sin-soaked soul.”  Franklin Graham

2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Wednesday Witnessing

April 14, 2016

This past week a young lady named Marci came to our table at Plant City. I asked her if she knew if she were to die today if she would go to heaven and she did not know but wanted to know. I introduce her to Ramona and she shared the gospel with her. When Ramona read the example prayer we have on our tract, the lady “at that moment” prayed that very prayer and called on the Lord. Ramona asked her, “Did you just pray that prayer?” and she smiled and said yes! They both rejoiced!
This is a salvation story from Randy and Romona Thomas, missionaries of SOS Events ministry. The Plant City Flea Market is every Wednesday and hundreds of people are saved each year at this event. To God be the Glory for His faithfulness. When we go to witness God brings the results for He is not willing that anyone perish.

2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

A Wise Man

March 13, 2016

Tom Curtis is a wise man for he is always looking for people to win to Christ. He has had 3 surgeries since October but as usual his goal is to witness especially in the hospital. Last evening he had the joy of leading Alden to Jesus. Please keep Tom in your prayers for complete healing of his left leg.

Proverbs 11:30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.

  


What is SOS Events?

March 4, 2016

What is SOS Events?
SOS Events is a ministry started to reach people, to do what God commands and spread the gospel.The Bible teaches there is only ONE WAY to get to Heaven:

A. Admit that you have sinned. “For All have sinned and come short of the glory of GOD. Romans 3:23

B. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. “That if thou shall confess with thy mouth and shalt believe in thine heart that GOD hath raised Him (Jesus) from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Romans10:9b

C. Call upon the Lord. “For whosoever (you) shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved.” Romans 10:13

PRAY:  Lord Jesus, I admit I am a sinner, I believe you died on the cross for forgiveness of my sins, I ask that you forgive my sins, come into my heart and make my life new. I receive you as my Savior. Thank you, Jesus. Amen

If you do these things you will go to Heaven.

SOS means Serving Our Savior.
God called Tom and Carolyn Curtis, founders of SOS Events, to evangelize the USA. They have committed their lives to the Lord full time.
Who do you know that needs to be born again? What have you done to tell that person how to be saved? Salvation comes by hearing the Word of God. God provided the method and the tools to reach people through SOS Events.
SOS trainers teach churches, youth groups and all ages of people how to invest their time serving God which is our “reasonable service.”
After many years of leading people to salvation, SOS needs much prayer, financial support and committed people to partner with us, to lead friends, neighbors and people at events to salvation.
If you have a friend or relative who is unsaved, give SOS a way to contact them and we will do our best to get the gospel to them. Better, yet, SOS can teach you how to be a better witness and through the Holy Spirit you could be the one to lead them to Christ.

Eleven Trust in Jesus

February 4, 2016

 Eleven people trusted Jesus as their Savior at the Flea Market yesterday. A picture is worth 1000 words. 

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.

Why?

January 31, 2016

Do you ever get discouraged? Do you wonder why something is happened in your life that you don’t understand?
That is exactly what happened yesterday to Tom Curtis. When he awoke he found the vaccum pump that is on his leg to help a wound heal was not working. Just the day before the home health nurse had come to change the dressing and everything was fine when she left. Now an alarm went off and nothing worked. After doing everything in the instruction book to solve the problem there was nothing left to do but call for another nurse to come and fix it. Discouraged and wondering why, there was nothing that Tom could do but pray and trust the Lord.
About two hours later, in walked a new Home healthcare nurse, whose name is John. John changed the tubing on the pump and everything worked fine. Tom, never letting an opportunity to witness go by, asked John if he knew for sure he was going to go to heaven.

John said he did not know, but that just two days ago another patient had asked the same question. Tom told John that God was working on his heart and it’s time for him to trust in Jesus. John agreed and in just a few minutes accepted Jesus as his Savior. As you can see from the picture both Tom and John are happy about that decision. 

Discouragement turned to joy and complete understanding why God allowed a trial to come into Tom’s life.

  
 2 Timothy 4:5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.

Parking Lot Salvation

January 29, 2016

Quite frequently Tom will wait in the car while Carolyn goes shopping. Always looking for someone to witness to, Tom saw a young man collecting the grocery carts to take them inside. Tom called him over to the car.

Tom was going to hand him my tract, and decided to carry on the conversation a little longer. Tom asked the young man whose name is Christian if he was 50, 75, or 100% sure he was on his way to heaven.

Christian said, “I am not sure at all.”

Tom then proceeded to lead Christian into the plan of salvation and Christian gladly accepted  the Lord. All of this took place in less than five minutes.

Usually when a person is working handing them tract is all that should be done because we would not want anyone to  have a problem with their employer. But Christian was working outside that day and the conversation was very short.

Tom did not get Christian’s full address because of the time but did get his phone number and will follow up.

2 Timothy 4:2  Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
