Signing up my son for Swimming Lessons

Went this morning to sign up my son for swimming lessions.  As I was coming home I noticed a trunk sale.  This is where people park and open their trunk and sell stuff out of it.  So I thought I might be able to find an easel so that I would not have to make one.  As I was walking and looking I heard what if What?  I said to the older gental men what if you died today would you go to heaven or hell.  He told me somewhere between.  I walked him through the commandments which he told me he was guilty and then told me he would go somewhere between.  He asked if going to Central Catholic would help him not go to hell I told him it would not help him at all.  He called the teachers there a chose word and liars and then told me he would go somewhere between.   I explained that the only way to heaven was if he trusted that Jesus died on the cross for his sins and that he had to trust in that and repented.  I then witnessed to another older gentalmen who told me that his wife would go first and she was so good she was bound to go and he would just hang on to her shirt and get in too.  I had a good conversation with him as well.  I guess I did not got to find an easle.  I went to witness.  After I drove out I thought I should have handed out tracts there.  Oh well 2 people heard the gospel.

50 minutes

Last year I learned that 1 hour was not a waste. So now I have 50 minutes on Wednesdays and I will charish that time. I read for Project Ezera today and it went pretty good. A fellow Christian and police officer stopped by to listen and to encourage us. I witnessed to 3 people today that understood what I explained to them. Please pray for these 3 souls. Jews for Jesus were on Pitt campus today as well. They had "Jesus Loves You" shirts on. I did not get to talk to them at all. The time was very short but I get to serve the Lord still.

Fairy Circles

I have a big green circle in my yard. I figured it was not aliens. So I looked online and it turns out I have a humungus fungus. it is 10 feet in diamater. It is called a fairy Circle. Turns out there are fairy Circles that are serveral aecres in size and hundreds of years old.

I do not want one in my yard. So I went to Lowes to get Prostar. They did not have that so I got another fungus killer. I had my What if shirt on and the greeter greeted me on the way out with what if what? He was a very nice older gentalmen. I said what if you died today would you go to heaven or hell? He said he did not know. I said here is a quick test. Have you ever told a lie he said yes. I asked if he has ever stolen and he asked if a paper clip counted. I told him it did. I asked if he had every hated and he said he had. I told him that the Bible says if you hate someone you have murdered them in your heart. He said well I guess I am going to end up in the other place. I told him it gets worse. If you lust after a women you have commited adultry in you heart with her already. His eyes almost bugged out of his head. I asked him if he were to be judged by the 10 commandments would he be guilty or innocent. he thought out loud about the 10 commanments and he knew most of them. then he said guilty and When I asked if he would go to heaven or hell he told me that he was just as sure they did not exist as I was that they did.

I asked him if someone paid his fine would he want to know. He told me we were done with the conversation and did a 180 degree turn and faced the doors as if to say it was time I walked out of them. I said good bye.

Being disowned



Today I went to the Steelers Tailgate and I did a quick stoplight preaching over and over again at the red light. It goes something like this.

" The Million dollar question is if you died today would you go to heaven or would you go to hell. Here is a quick test. If you told 1 lie you are a liar. If you hated one person you are a murder and if you steal one thing you are a theif. If God judges you by the 10 commandments you would be guilty and go to hell. Jesus died on the cross for the sins of those that repent and put their trust in him. For God so loved the world that he gave his only son that whoever believes in him shall not perish. Jesus said I am the way the truth and the life no one comes to the father but by me."

I was very nervious. I started out the evening by reading Isaiah 53 for Project Ezera. That got a little bit of the nerviousness out but I was nervious for about the first hour. Then my feet just hurt. The crowd was great. I was afraid that I would get hit or hurt but the crowd was great.

The worst part of the night was when my Mom pushed my aunt by the corner and even though I said hello they both looked away the entire time. My mom pushed my aunt accross the street in her wheel chair as fast as she could. I guess that is how you know you are a freak... Not even your own mother will acknowledge that she knows you.

University of Pittsburgh

Lots of students have gotten the million dollar bill this year already. The one day I watched so many tracts go into the garbage that I decided I would read the tract to them over and over again with my PA. They can not throw the words I speak into the garbage. Last year I handed out tons of tracts down in Oakland and people started telling me that they had already gotten one. When I asked if they read it they said no. It just seems time to read it over the Pa system.

Many people tell me no I am good when I try to hand the tract to them. I think I will start asking them " Are you sure you are a good person?"
