dscoo579We have been doing a lot of evangelism, our Father has been showing me to teach the people like Jesus did he didn’t wait until they were converted to teach them, look at the sermon on the mt. Like it says in 2 Tim.2:24-26 “And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;” Some times we just open the bible and begin to teach. Yesterday we went back to one place for the third time; the same people are still coming and they are full of questions, we were there for two hours. We have about three places like this now where we are teaching and preaching and the people always want us to come back. I believe we will have healthier conversions when people are fully prepared. We have always been told that the sinners cannot understand spiritual things. This may be true if we are limited to our ability to teach them, however the Holy Spirit is quite capable of bringing understanding even to those who are in gross darkness.

Always good to see your smiling face brother. It refreshes and excites me to hear how God is using you and the others there in Ghana. Still praying for the house to sell so that we may join in the work there, if that is according to his will. The same holy spirit which makes us able ministers is also able to make the once heavy and dull of hearing ear able to hear the words of life which we are sent to proclaim. May the Lord richly bless you my brother and give you those good things that you desire of him, in the name of our Lord Jesus The Christ.
Your brother in the Communion of our Lord John (jack) Burwell
P.S. communion is an interesting word don’t you think? Looks like two words put together common/union.
Wow I am impressed. I love the idea of u being able to spread the word and be able to see all of gods great creations around the world.
