The Wordless Gospel!

While I was tutoring last week my two students showed me what they called their "Chinese Bible" I told them that I would bring my bible in next week. I brought my bible with me tonight, and when I showed it to them they began to ask lots of questions. I explained to them different aspects of the bible (Like the Old and New testament, the books of the bible ect.) and since my Bible is the Evidence Bible distributed by Living Waters it had a short little comic called "The Wordless Gospel" designed for witnessing to people who don't speak English. I was able to go through it with them, and when we got to the end I was surprised by something I hadn't seen before. At the end of the comic it has a page with a whole bunch of different translations of John 3:16, one of which being Chinese! While they did not accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior tonight, I know that at least a seed was planted. I'm so glad I was able to be used by God today! I ask that you would pray for my students, Owen and Brandon, pray that the seed which was planted tonight would grow and that they would some day come to know Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior! I now know what Charles Spurgeon was talking about when he said "Even if I were utterly selfish and had no care for anything but my own happiness, I would choose, if God allowed, to be a soul winner, for never did I know perfect overflowing, unutterable happiness of the purest and most ennobling order 'till I first heard of one who had sought and found a Savior through my means." It truly is an exciting thing to share the Gospel with the lost!

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