Hello again readers,
If you’ve frequently read my post, you will remember the story of one Chinese student that eagerly wanted to join the Bible discussion. Now she became our sister in Christ! The Bible verse Luke 15:10 said: “In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents”. Praise the Lord!
It has been four weeks and four different sermons at the church we’re attending which really hit the same point that “Salvation comes by faith in Christ and through Christ not by doing good”. She had incorrectly thought that she had to do many good things to become a Christian. Romans 10:9 says “If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved”. After she received confirmations through these sermons she asked for the relationship with the Lord. Now she is so happy that she became a Christian through Jesus! We are so happy that she is now our sister in Christ and she studies the Word from our Bible discussion and by her devotion. She also shows interest in joining the worship band on Friday night at Xenos because she likes to sing. She joins our Bible discussion regularly and she invites new students to the group too.
In mid-October, IFI arranged a trip to Hocking Hills State park and we had about 200 students and about 60 volunteer drivers. Me, my Group leader, and the Chinese student were there too. We had a lot of fun walking, hiking, good talking and our friendship becomes stronger. We also invited some students who rode in the same car with us to join our Friday Bible discussion. One of them came and we had a really good discussion on the topic of Abram’s calling (Genesis 12).
Lastly, my readers, please pray for me, my Bible discussion group, new students, and the Chinese student who just accepted Christ that God will speak through their heart and give them wisdom to receive the good news and understand the Word and come to the group discussion regularly.
