Our liaison’s travel report

He reports about one group of students in visited:

I visited a group that has studied with 316NOW for 8 years. They arranged for church leaders in the area who had not been exposed to the online Bible institute to meet and talk with me.

I was surprised to find that those leaders did not know the gospel. When I asked them, "What would you tell an unbeliever if he asked you how going to church and having Christian faith can result in eternal life," they couldn't answer correctly. Some said, "I guess I'll make the right decision at the time." Others talked about earning heaven through good works. So I took the opportunity to evangelize them.

I also encouraged them to enroll in our Bible institute. To help with that, I installed our secure online teaching program on their computers.

I was honored to baptize a new believer at the beginning of the retreat we held the next day. Then I started Confirmation classes with them. The rest of the Confirmation instruction will be handled by our students there. At the end of my teaching, another new believer was baptized. The Holy Spirit had moved into her heart through what she learned.

All praised the Lord for his greatness.
