Promise for the Pilgrim

"But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city." 
Heb 11:16

Victories in the Vineyard

Christmas in God's Country - Hondo, TX

Victory Baptist Church obtained the booth and turned out to help.  Pastor Bonam was not able to come but Mrs. Bonam was there with several ladies.  21 were dealt with, 17 made a profession of faith, 2 received assurance, 250 + received a tract. 

Bro. Bonam was able to get the booth because he was local.  The last 2 years the Chamber had turned us down because the Ministerial Association wanted a presence.  Of course, they never did anything, but Victory Baptist did!

Christmas Parade and Tree Lighting, Bulverde, TX

Pastor James Leinneweber and the members of Heritage Baptist Church in Bulverde obtained the booth and put up their own canopy and equipment.  It was just from 5 to 7pm, but the Lord stirred up the crowd and grace was present.  31 were dealt with, of which 16 made a profession of faith, 2 received assurance and well over 200 got a tract placed directly in their hand. 

One lady saw a big change on the spot.  The church went by, of course to follow-up and 2 of her grandchildren (13 and 15 yrs) made a profession of faith.  The next Sunday the lady, her husband, her daughter and the daughter's husband and 4-5 grandchildren came to the morning service.

Post Office Celebration, Spring Branch, TX

Spring Branch only has a Post Office and Fire Station, they must celebrate the Fire Station in the spring.

Pastor James Leinneweber worked this event on crutches.  20 were dealt with, 14 of which made a profession of faith and 1 got assurance.  About 150 + personally accepted a tract. 

The Post Office was so glad we were there they made the booth space free and when they heard the outcome, gave us a hug.

Words for Soul Winners and Warners

"Just how many of these people really get saved, Baptized and into church?"

Way too few!  But a whole lot more than if nothing is done at all.  Our aim and the churches' we work with is to give a tract to everyone in sight, witness to as many as possible, reap those willing, mature even a smaller number and love the whole bunch. 

There is an urgency in spreading the Gospel.  God has not dictated that some will be saved and some lost.  All have a free will and are welcome, "whosoever will let him take of the water of life freely".  It is His wish: 1)  "not any should perish"; 2)  you and I should take the message, "how shall they hear without a preacher (a witness, not necessarily a pastor)?"

So the criteria is not how many really got saved, Baptized and into church, but how many were told.  Hence the name of the ministry: Winning and Warning.  We can safely say that everyone who received a verbal witness was told!  Even a good number who received a tract were told through the printed page.  Even a more telling question might be, "how many were NOT told?"

Touching Testimonies

Jason                      21

I prayed to Jesus and to forgive me for my sins.

Forgiveness is the need of every human heart.

Alysha                    13

I feel that I just let God into my life for the first time.  Before this I wasn’t sure if he really was real.  But now I live for God and I will try my best to be loyal to him.

Samantha              15

I was saved by Jesus, because I asked for forgiveness.  I am thankful for Jesus, paying for my sins.

Some can see it and express it so simply.

Mike                       27

Prayed to the Lord to be accepted.

Aaron & James     18, 19

These young men were working in the local Job Corps unit trying to earn a little money at the fairgrounds.  They readily heard the Gospel, possibly thinking that they could inquire anonimously.  Even though their homes and families were hundreds of miles away and they were working at obscure jobs; and no one in the whole county knew their names, God had not lost track of them and had steered them to our booth, stirred their interest and stacked enough grace on their hearts for them “to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name”.

Isaiah                     20

I just confessed my sins and accepted Jesus in my life to become a new man.

Isaiah knew he needed saving and asked Jesus for it

Points for Prayer and Praise

Pray for our nation.  It is Turmoiled and Torn, without leaders: Political, Industrial and Religious.  The Answer is Jesus.  Pray for the Mission which is reaching 1000's in foreign countries with nationals who have no support.
