I Don't Believe Jesus is God

Now that I have your attention from the title, please note that I base my life on the fact that JESUS IS GOD. But as I was teaching one of my guys in the college ministry how to write a Bible study, we began to talk with Lola in the student lounge. Lola is 18 and was sitting with In Sook, one of our Korean Believers who attends Medicine Hat College. In Sook missed our Bible study today, and asked how it was, I told her it was good, and asked Lola (who I've met before) when she is going to come to Bible Study. "When I believe in God," was her answer. Lola is from the far east Asian part of Russia, and she has read the Torah. She wears the star of David, does not classify herself as a Jew, and does not believe that Jesus is God. We had a great discussion today and she let me pray with her. Just as I was about to pray, another girl shows up and sits down with us.

"Oh, man!" I thought, "Isn't this just like the enemy!" We are about to pray with a non-Believer and the enemy shoves somebody in there to not let this happen. Boy, was I wrong! It turns out this girl has a father who is on faculty at the college. As a matter of fact, her father is a Christian. Not only is her father a Christian, but I was at her parent's house on Monday night, praying with the Christian Faculty for the students at MHC!

This young lady prayed with us and Lola, for Jesus to reveal Himself to her. I think we will have some great discussions with Lola and pray that salvation will come to her. I pray that one day she will say, "I do believe that Jesus is the Son of God and I love Him with all my heart!" Will you pray for Lola also?

You did get my attention!

I love reading your blog and hearing about all the amazing things that God is doing through you and your family, your ministry, and in the lives and hearts of the people in Medicine Hat.

Will pray for Lola, and the college ministry.

Keep pressing in!
