- called to make a phone bill inquiry, got the God-thought to ask for the names & personal emails of the people i was speaking to :) [in order to point them to an evangelistic website] :)
first got Andy, then Tanya, then Kinali from a research group called me - i didnt qualify to be researched but thought i may as well ask her for her email :)
would typically ask them:
"what was your name gain? :)"
"could i please get your personal email? i have a VERY IMPORTANT message for you :)
"is English your first language?" <-- VERY important Qn as His witnesses we should try to get the gospel to them in their heart language!
if English isn't their 1st language [as it was in Andy's case, i couldnt tell he was Filipino, his English was quite good!]
got his email & pointed him to this site: www.chick.com/reading/tracts/0465/0465_01.asp
[go there yourself to get a gosoel tract in SO MANY different languages!]
eg Afrikaans Albanian Amharic Arabic Armenian Bemba * Bengali Blue Hmong Bulgarian * Cambodian Cebuano Chichewa Chinese Chinese-Simple Creole Croatian Czech Danish Dendi * Dutch English-African * Esperanto * Estonian Euskara * Farsi Fijian * Finnish French French African French Tahitian * Gallego * German Greek * Hausa * Hindi Huichol * Hungarian Icelandic * Ilocano * Indonesian Inuit * Irish * Italian Japanese Kannada Konkani * Korean Lamba * Lao Latvian * Lingala * Lithuanian Luganda * Luxembourgian * Macedonian * Malagasy * Malayalam Maltese * Marquesan * Marshallese * Mongolian * Mongolian Cyrillic Nepali * Ngiemboon * Norwegian Panjabi * Papiamentu * Pidgin * Polish Portuguese Portuguese-African * Romanian Runyankore * Russian Sango * Serbian * Sesotho * Slovak * Slovenian * Sotho, Northern * Spanish Suriname * Suriname Hindi * Swahili Swedish Tagalog Tahitian * Tamil Tatar * Telugu Thai Tigrinya * Tiv * Tonga * Tshiluba * Tsonga * Turkish Ukrainian Urdu Venda * Vietnamese Waray-Waray * White Hmong Xhosa * Yao * Yoruba * Zulu]
pray for eternal impact & long-lasting fruit to come through these contacts.
how often do we let precious lost souls pass us by without even making the slightest effort to point them to Jesus in some way or other?!
may we all sense the DIRE urgency to be using all means to all men & women to point them to The Only Saviour, Jesus Christ!!
to date Tanya's been the only one who responded to my email,
"thank you I am a christian but I go wondering away from christ... Please do pray for me pray that I stay in line with christ and also I thank you deeply for making me realise where I was going"
. a small effort could go a looong way!!
may we all excercise more compassion toward those we interact with, day in day out, or even the odd occasional phone bill inquiry / telemarketer ;)
