God of wonders

...watching the Jesus film

We read this account in a recent Jesus Film Project newsletter:

A film team was traveling from village to village in a solidly Hindu area in Asia. While carrying
their equipment by foot to a village, they were confronted by five angry people. The five began shouting, using abusive language, swearing… accusing the film team of spreading Christianity. It was a tense and potentially dangerous situation.
Rather than shouting back, the team told their accusers the story of the gospel. They explained how Jesus was God’s ultimate sacrifice, that there was no need for them to sacrifice to idols, since the Son of God had shed His own blood for them and now offered forgiveness to all who believe.
The accusers were amazed and stopped their shouting. They even said they had never heard such good news before and agreed to attend the showing that night. When “JESUS” concluded, all indicated decisions to receive Christ. The five now regularly attend a New Life Study Group… and are growing in their faith!

More proof that the proper way to evangelize is to communicate truth instead of debating error. (Titus 3:3-9)
