Battle Log of Operation 513 at Sunnybank on Wednesday February 27th, 2024 from 1300-1500

It was so good to have the Old Toowong Triade Gospel Squad be reunited after half a year of separation. Johnny rejoined Hung and Winnie as soon as he returned from Taiwan. team of three joining force very timely to catch up with the new influx of students in the beginning of a new Academic term. The queue for bus was so long that it turned the corner reaching almost towards the end of the side street. Despite the bus frequency are still high as usual, we all got very long conversation finishing the full gospel with good result. Recap below is the Battle Log of Hung:

1) I was led to approach JJ from Flippin who quickly identified himself as a protestant Christian despite there are many y Catholic background Christian in his bigger family circle. I thus switched to test his assurance of salvation which is spot on 100%. I encouraged him to do outreach in the campus perhaps to be affiliated with Power to Change.

2) Then I caught up with an ABC Malaysian Chinese. He speaks very little and limited Chinese despite he is all Chinese face looking. And he declared himself an atheist. He admitted he could not find and fallacy or loophole in the gospel message that as long as we are not perfect, we are all liable to go to hell with those known bad guys like Hitler. Only through the atoning grace of Jesus can we be saved by grace through faith. Yet, his heart is still too hard to humble himself to receive Christ as his Savior.

3) Billy & Anna are both Hongkonger, but they actually are from North Eastern China but moved to HKG for study over 7 years than came over to Australia for University study on Business Management. They both listen to the gospel patiently and admitted they have heard the same many times before. Possibly because the long-term influence by atheist in China, they are not too drawn to religious teaching. But perhaps the 7 odd years of life in HKG still played an effect of yearning for freedom and being set free from many visible and invisible bondage from the background they were brought up.

4) Lucy is a local Aussie girl but with mixed blood of Netherland. She is very sociable and talkative and appeared open to the gospel message despite she is non-religious. She was basically convinced to admit that no one is perfect as such we will be held responsible for our short coming in our human character even in the meantime, we have done a lot of good work. I suspect she might have missed her bus at least once to allow the conversation to carry on.

5) Zach is a young man living in the North of about one hour train traveling time. He is non-religious but similarly he seemed to have been touch ed by the gospel admitting everyone good or bad, we all need the redemptive grace of Jesus.
