Battle Log of Operation 513 at Sunnybank on Wednesday June 11th, 2025 from 1030-1200

Today again Hung and Ann turned up to do gospel outreach individually. Ann also does gospel outreach at other time and at other places during the week. But she still chooses to come around the same time to Sunnybank every Wednesday. She treated me as her supply station to replenish gospel tracts when her stock has run out as I have all the stock of gospel tracts stored in my car behind the bus stop.

Outreach at Sunnybank today had mixed result. On the one hand, it continues to be the barren land for gospel outreach to mainlander. My initial approaches to mainlanders almost faced different forms of rejection without exception. Two mainlanders of older and younger ages both chose to avoid me switching to another side of the bench without a word. Another two younger mainlanders men chose to ignore me as if I was as transparent as the air. Then another middle age woman did not reject me but use excuse to look at the bus schedule to avoid me. When I thought she is OK after looking up the bus schedule, then she used any other senseless excuse to move away from me even though she never said no to reject me. Finally, I was able to get hold of a senior mainlander men to have conversation, but he use irrelevant response to cut and interrupted my gospel sharing so at the end, only a fragmented gospel message was shared to him before the bus came.

But by the grace of God, I was miraculously connected again with Matthew from a Hongkonger family whose Cantonese is extremely good. Last week he was the exceptional one that I could share the full gospel with very positive response despite he and his family ar all non-religious. Today he recognized me and reminder me we had chatted before. I naturally followed up checking if he understands and shares the logic of the gospel message. He show great assertiveness to ponder to receive Christ. I advised him it is better early than late even though he is young and seems to have a lot of time to ponder and make up his mind. Right at this moment, a bus that was leaving the bus stop but turned his wheel too drastically quick as such the rear left of the bus hit heavily on the lamp post beside the bus stop. One of the rear light lamp even was struck coming off. If any one was standing in front of the lamp post, that persons must have been struck dead. You can see the picture of me kneeling in front of the lamp post with the yellow paint scratch mark left by the impact of the bus with the lamp post. Matthew immediately exclaim also that if he was standing there waiting for bus, he certainly will be killed, so my advice turn out to be a proven prophetic word calling him to make his earliest decision to receive Christ. He agreed to let me know his good news of receiving Christ next time if we meet again.
God also let me caught up with first a girl from Guangzhou doing design in QUT, and an Indian guy from the better off northern India doing IT study. Both of them showed openness and receptiveness towards gospel.

So Gospel Outreach is always a kind of spiritual warfare that, facing difficulty and rejection is the norm, but keep preaching the gospel irrespective of the response to those most die heart people is the calling that God has given to all lay Christian also for the goodness sake of our personal growth in the true knowledge of Christ.
