Battle Log of Operation 513 at Toowong on Tuesday June 17th, 2025 from 1030-1200

It was again a day of early winter chill, but the fire for gospel outreach sustained me as a solo evangelist to keep serving God with His ever presence and empowerment along the whole period on mission with God. It was basically a fretful day though not without hardship and rejections as shown in the Battle Log for today: -

1) Sunny, an ABC with Pa from Shanghai and Mum from Guangzhou but still manageable to speak Chinese , yet I switched back to English to gear up the communication efficiency with her. She is non religious as a family from mainland China, but comparatively she is still very open and appeared receptive to the Gospel.

2) Next was a local young guy who share the logic of the gospel message that no one is perfect as such every one has automatically lost the right to be admitted to the heavenly kingdom that will demand for a perfectly clean no sin record as if the crime free requirement for any migrant applying for PR than citizen to a country.

3) After too smooth outreach than came several outright rejections

4) Then I was led back to a girl who was busy in phone conversation, who initially still allow the conversation to carry on but then decline to carry on when she realize it was going to lead to a chat about God and Jesus claiming she is an Atheist and did not want to engage in religious chat.

5) Then I was led to approach an elderly man from NZ visiting friends in Australia, I suggested to him this is definitely a divine appointment to let us meet and chat. He indicated he is well verse in theological study but claimed he still found a lot of issues without answer. Because of time limit, I went straight to test his assurance of salvation which he struggle to give an assertive answer and the arrival of the bus cut short our conversation. I still pray this incomplete conversation still serves God's purpose in his life.

6) Next was Sam a girl from Europe that I could only manage to give her a quick nutshell of the gospel and she looked receptive despite with a nose ring suggesting she is a post modern person.

7) Last but not the least was Corner a local Aussie who appeared very opens and receptive even to the quick nutshell of Gospel in 1min stressing requirement for heaven is perfect and no one is perfect as such every body in the fallen human race has been disqualified for the heavenly citizenship. Only a perfect person can help to take our place for the imperfection and issue virtually a sin free certificate to guarantee us be justified and reconciled with God regaining the heavenly citizenship the moment we accepted Jesus as our Savior and Lord of our life.
