Mr. Thou Art
08/01/19 • 14 min
In this episode we begin a new series where we teach some lessons on evangelism taken from our evangelism encounters in Italy.
Mr. Thou Art is the name give to the man we were evangelizing in order that we can better remember the experience and pray for him specifically.
Some things he said include:
"I'm the best artist in the world."
"Europe doesn't know what good art is."
"My name goes back 700 years, but I cannot tell you what it is; it's a secret."
"F*&% America. F&%* Europe."
Two lessons:
1. There are signs that help you understand when one is likely possessed of evil spirits. Knowing the signs helps.
2. Do you best, by His grace, when you evangelize, but always remember that salvation belongs to the Lord and He knows those who are His; God alone predestines, calls, justifies and glorifies. Romans 8:29-30, 2 Timothy 2:19

Update 56 - Church work
A brief mission update from PMc on-field director in Italy. Included in this episode is an exhortation from 2 Timothy 2:1-2 regarding the need to be strengthened in the grace of God. In addition, we talk about a missionary that recently finished her race and went to be with the Lord, some photos, an update regarding our involvement for a church plant north of Udine. We mention some ways we would like you to pray with us.
"Jesus is building His church. He does it through individuals that make up the church. Paul was in prison, but built up (edified) by Christ. As a result, Paul wrote to encourage and build up Timothy who was becoming weary in the complexities of church planting ministry. Now God's word comes to us as well to strengthen our hearts as we live for Him in this world."
