Trinity Baptist in HondurasTuesday, May 27
This was our terrain today....steep.
We carried food and bibles to people living on either side of these steps. Some opened up to us, and others didn't. We encountered brothers and sisters along the away and helped lead others to Christ.
We encountered ignorance, religeon, and fear today. Some were open, many were closed. Here's a few questions we posed and answers given:
Question: "Do you have a personal relationship with Jesus?"
Answer: "I'm Catholic."
We got this several times. One of the young men with this answer didn't know squat about salvation. He learned about grace today and confessed with his mouth that Jesus is Lord.
Question: "If this was your last day on earth, would you go to heaven?"
Answer: No, I'm not ready. I used to go to church, but not right now.
Most people responded to these questions in relation to their church attendance.
Question: "Would you like to ask for God's forgiveness today and recieve his free gift of salvation?"
Answer: I'm afraid to do that...this is a very serious thing. I'm going to do it little by little.
Door to door evangelism has been a battle, both challenging and strengthening for everyone involved. This team has a great big heart for the lost.
