Being Bold as a Lion for Christ on Face Book!

Yes! We all need to be Bold as a Lion on the face book for Christ! You can do that!

One of the former co-worker, was on crazy quiz or testing on the face book about when will you die. His result was January 15th, 2011. I don't believe in those kind of stuff, but what a great chance to share the gospel. YEAH! BOLDLION is at it!

This is what I wrote to him: (copy and pasted from the face book):
We all need to be daily preparing when it is time to die! Are you preparing for that or not? Do you know where you are going or not? I rather to live my life for Christ but to die is to gain so that I can be with Him. How do you want to live your life on earth?

Please do pray that he will respond to that. He is Catholic. Also please do pray how others who read his face book will respond too!

YIPES! I see a typo grammar error that I wrote to him, but that is little mild error (see in red) I shouldn't use "to". I am glad that is not a major theology error.

I would encourage you all to do the same thing on the face book, or my space, or whatever that you are using to keep up with your friends. Also using blog to witness to other. I do pray that you will use your face book, or whatever for Christ Alone!

Let us continue to be Bold as a Lion for Christ!

Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!

I do hope this new year will be a blessing to you all!
Let us continue to be Bold as a Lion for Christ this year.

Yes! Let us continue to be Bold as a Lion for Christ this coming year in 2009! Let us continue to encourage one another to be Bold as a Lion for Christ!

In what way can you tell us how the Lord had used you to be Bold as a Lion for Christ this past year, 2008! Are you continue witnessing to someone that doesn't know Christ at work, wherever you are or whatever?

I know it is a very challenging job to do this. We can do this with the Lord help. Without Him we can't do this.

Let us shine for Christ!

If you don't know how to witness to someone, you can talk to your pastor or elder of your church about this. I am sure that they will be more than gladly to direct you and help you to learn.

In the year of 2002, I didn't know how to witness to others until I took FAITH (the hardest), and later I took Share Jesus Without Fear in the year of 2004. I would encourage you to try Share Jesus Without Fear because this is the easiest way to learn, and you will be using the Bible and having them to read from the Bible. Both FAITH and Share Jesus Without Fear can be found at LifeWay Christian Bookstore or online. I have heard about Romans Road, but I never had learn that one. Other had done The Way of the Master, and I haven't done that one.

I am not in favor of evangelism program way, but it will help you to get started. After that, you will not depend on the evangelism program but being Bold as a Lion for Christ with the Holy Spirit to direct you as you lead other to Christ. Having the Holy Spirit to direct you is the best way of all.

Can you share with us what other way how you have witness to others for Christ? So that we can all learn from you from your experience.

Let us continue to be Bold as a Lion for Christ!

KJV and I have learned a lot!

Yes, it is about KJV. Yes, I did learned a lot because it had caught my attention, and I thought it was an typo. I love to catch typo.

I was surfing online with Crosswalk, and someone wrote a post Who is a True Jew? He was using KJV, and I wasn't use to that. As I read his post, I thought that this poor guy got to learn to use the online Bible Study tool that Crosswalk have, so that he can copy and pasted it. I kept seeing errors in his post as he was posting the scriptures in KJV.

I was about to write a reply and encourage him to use the online Bible Study tools. I pull out my ESV and look it up, and I was right. But I did also pull my KJV because he was using KJV so that I can point out his errors. That is when I learned a lot. KJV does throw me off with its own word or name.

For instance: in Matthew 1:2-3 KJV ~
2 Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judas and his brethren;
3 And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram;

When I read that I saying that had to be a typo because Jacob begat Judah not Judas. I kept thinking about the Lion of Judah. This didn't make any sense to me then I realized this is the way KJV does write this. I didn't like that at all, but I have learned.

I did look up in other translations such as ESV, NKJV, and NASB. They all used "Judah" and not "Judas". I am wondering why KJV used "Judas" and not "Judah".

Not for the post of Who is a True Jew? I just happend to be looking in KJV during the time as I was looking about Judas and Judah, I spotted something else that did throw me off again, and I had to laugh.

Matthew 2:17 KJV ~
17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying,

When I read the word / name "Jeremy", I had to laughed. I couldn't believe that KJV did that. That didn't sound like KJV to me because it is using a nick name. Then again I did look up in other translations such as ESV, NKJV and NASB. They all used the name "Jeremiah" and not "Jeremy".

I know that I have learned a lot today in KJV, and its words. This had taught me a lesson. I do know that I am not KJV only.

By the way, for the reason for reading the post Who is a True Jew? The title of the post had brought back the flood of memory of one of the deaf Jew that I met on the Video Phone at my deaf friend's place. She had been to a Baptist Church for the Deaf in her hometown. She does know who Jesus is, but she haven't accepted Him as her personal Lord and Savior because she felt that in order to be a True Jew is to die as a True Jew for not accepting Him as her persoanl Lord and Savior. I know this is sad.

We do need to share who Jesus is in our life to the Jew whether they will accept Him or not. They do need to know more about Him.

Learning about other cultures

I would encourage everyone to learn about their friends that are from a different culture or from another country. This is very educational experience.

I work with several co-workers who are from India. They are a very hard working people. They can educate you who they are and their belief. I do find that is very interesting. I got a lot to learn from them as I work with them.

They know who I am and understand that I am a strong believer. They also know that I am into Biblical Studies Major. Yet, they love me and want to educate me about their belief. I try to learn and understand them. Since I am hearing impaired, and they understand that I do have hard time understanding their accent. They do have a lot of patience with me and will write down what they said or repeat again to make sure that I understood them. I will repeat back to them to see if I got that right. They do get happy about that.

One of the ladies was telling me about Caste System in India, and she encouraged me to look that up online. Wow! That is very educational information to understand their culture in India especially among the Hindu people.

I would encourage other to make friend with other types of people to understand who they are and understand their belief and where they come from. It is a very educational experience to work with them and make friends with them.

I would love to go on the short-term mission trip to India with a group, but I got a lot to learn. I don’t think that I can do that on my own because of not able to understand their accents, and they would not know me.

In United States, we have one language that is English, but in India, they have more than one language. Hindi is the national language there, but not all of them can speak Hindi. One of my friends speaks Telugu, others speak Gujarati, and there are a lot more different languages in India.

I also had witness to them by giving them a tract written in their language. But they do embrace another religious. I would love to find the right tract that can tell them that they can’t embrace another god or religious.

I do remember that one of the ladies, who is a Hindu and from India that used to work with us. She told me that she prayed to Jesus for the job to stay while the temps were supposed to be off the next day. She was one of the temps. I used to take her home from work when we were working overtime, and I had been teaching her some sign language. When I heard that she told me that she prayed to Jesus, so that she can work, and I asked her if she meant Jesus that we know by using the sign for Jesus, and why it was signed that way. She was patting her heart and nodding her head as for yes for that is the one. Later, I gave her the book of the Gospel of John in English. She does read English very well. She did enjoy the book but again embrace another religious. This is sad.

I know that we all need to be Bold as a Lion to witness to other. Please continue to pray for me as I witness to the Hindu people at work. It is not an easy job but learning to love them and sharing with them about my faith and also to learn from them as well.

In Christ Alone,
