When all the people who decided to believe in the Lord had come to the front, Mai Ke and others went to help count the number of people. Then, when it was summed up, everyone found that more than one-third of the audience believed in the Lord!

Among them, there were 812 charcoal burners, 6330 Hui Dang, 952 boat gangs, 390 Qing prisoners, 335 who insisted on not surrendering, and the number of old, weak, sick and disabled was the largest, reaching 710!

Even among those 100,000 people, many of them believed in the Lord. Among them, there were twenty-four guards led by the great bull, and there were twelve of those who refused to submit, not including Sven. This beggar, who is revered as a teacher, has already taken a step forward in the path of faith.

In order to lead the 2,922 people in the decision prayer, the people were divided into five groups, the first four groups of 500 people each, and the last group of 422 people, led by Gavin, Luther, Methodist, Mike, and Liang Fa. Mai Ke jumped onto the stage, then knelt down, raised his hands to the sky, and led everyone to make a decision prayer.

"Beloved Heavenly Father, I thank you for giving me new life. Thou hast sent Thou shalt send my begotten Son to die for my sins, and to offer atonement for my sins, that I may be spared the penalty of death. I am grateful for this, and I am willing to give my life to the Lord, to recognize the Lord Jesus as my Savior and the Master of my life, to listen to God's Word and follow the Lord all my life, and never waver no matter what difficulties I encounter. In the name of the Lord Jesus. Amen!"

Today, all the people who were born again also knelt in front of the high platform, followed Mai Ke's prayer one by one, agreed in their hearts, spoke out in their mouths, and witnessed the power of God in front of everyone, and expressed their determination to follow the Lord in the face of any difficulties.

When Mike's prayer said, "You sent your only begotten son to die for my sins", Hong Xiuquan suddenly knelt down and prayed with Mai Ke with those who had made up their minds. It was at this moment that he understood in his heart what his true relationship with Jesus was. Jesus is the supreme God, a mere mortal man who has never left Him as the essence of God.

How ridiculous it must have been that I had the idea of calling him a brother before. He is the Savior, I am a sinner, and I can only be saved by confessing my sins and confessing Him as Lord. Although I was earlier than these people today in my pursuit of faith, my foundation was not as pure as these people. Today, I have made up my mind here to start from scratch, change my mind, and be a new person who is completely different from my old self.

By this time, Mai Ke had finished his prayer, and everyone agreed in unison: "Amen!"

Everyone who fell to their knees was full of excitement, and many were in tears, unable to help themselves.

The audience watched as they witnessed the process of these people calmly making up their minds to follow the Lord, and many of them were in a mood swing. They also listened to the gospel and were touched to the deepest part of their hearts, but for various reasons, the response was slow and did not respond to Methodist's call.

The process of making a decision just now had a great impact on them. The prayer that Mai Ke prayed for gave them a better understanding of their relationship with God, how immeasurable God's grace is, and how they should do it in order to escape the punishment of death and receive God's blessings of eternal life, just like these people kneeling in the local area.

Then a bizarre scene appeared. Four or five hundred people also knelt on the ground before they came to the high platform, and asked Mai Ke to lead them in a prayer of determination. Some of them are anxious and have good memories, so they pray first.

This situation looked at Gavin, Luther, Methodist, Mack, and others in one fell swoop. Not to mention encountering this kind of thing, I have never heard of it.

In fact, today's mass conversion, which led so many people to resolve their minds in a single sermon, had not existed in the United States for many years before they crossed.

This dreamlike evangelistic effect is something that all professional preachers dream of, and that is rare to see.

There are no obstacles in the field. Faith is in God's time, not to mention a little bit of time. Then Mai Ke also led these people to make a decision prayer according to the decision prayer just now.

The number of people has increased, and the total number has to be recounted, or several departments. The final figure was a full three thousand five hundred. In view of the fact that these people would be returning to various places tomorrow, Mai Ke and Govern Gavin and other pastors urgently discussed how to educate these people about faith tracking. They decided to take two measures.

The first is the division of labor among these pastors, and wherever these people go, the assigned pastors follow. Among them, Luther, as a military herd, followed Zhang Yuan to lead the selected Hui Party and charcoal burners back to Jintian Village. Wei Li followed Hu Youlu, the leader of the Hui Party, to the territory of the Hui Party, where he preached, and Hu Youlu vigorously cooperated.

Pastor Mike was in charge of the prison ministry and the elderly, sick and disabled prisoners. They were all temporarily residing in Peter's territory, so he was with them for the time being. In the future, you will need to go to the new base as well.

Liang Fa was in charge of the evangelistic and training ministry of the Boat Gang, starting with Peter's training and then expanding to the entire Xijiang Valley. At the same time, continue to press the Bible, so that every Christian can have a collection of the Old and New Testaments in the shortest possible time.

The current five hundred Bibles. The first four pastors each had a hundred copies, and the remaining one hundred were given to Gavin. Gavin was responsible for the overall coordination of the ministry and the preparation of systematic training for newcomers to these decisions.

At a minimum, these trainings should include the key teachings of the Christian faith, such as the Trinity, the human and divine nature of Jesus, the inerrancy of the Bible, justification by faith, etc. This requires sorting out the relevant doctrines, and cannot be reduced or arbitrarily played.

At the same time, Mai Ke told everyone that he had already led two people to decide to become Christians, one of whom was the leader of the beggar gang, and that this person could help Brother Methodist in the future, because your next step was to infiltrate the Manchu ruled areas.

The other one is Sven. I had already met him at dinner, and he assisted Warden Huang in managing the prison inmates. Pastor Mike can partner with him on prison ministry.

Changing people is the focus of prison ministry, so not only do you need to help those who have decided to become Christians strengthen their faith, but you also need to preach the gospel to those who are not converted. Mai Ke emphasized at the end.

While discussing and arranging relevant matters with everyone, Mai Ke paid attention to whether he would suddenly pass through his distant ancestor. After all, he came from the afterlife with this kind of psychological preparation. After a while, I couldn't see any signs, so I slowly relaxed my vigilance in this regard, and I should do what I should do.

Although there are many of these things, they are all familiar with them, and they are all for the purpose of God's will to be fulfilled, and everyone is willing to do their part, so they quickly decide. In the end, everyone felt that this kind of opportunity to get together was rare and should not be missed, so they unanimously agreed to take the first lesson of that series of education today, and strike while the iron is hot.

Then Gavin went up again and loudly announced that the first lesson on the foundation of the faith was about to begin. Participation is mandatory for all those who make a decision, and anyone else who is interested is welcome to attend.

He introduced the title of the first lesson as "What is a Christian?" The goal is to let these new believers know what the difference is between Christians and non-Christians. In other words, what kind of person is a true Christian.

"The first lecture below is Mai Ke. Gavin then announced the name of the first speaker and invited him to the stage.

Mai Ke stepped forward. Standing in the middle of the stage, he first transported a mouthful of dantian qi. Although he is strong in martial arts, his natural voice is not as good as Wei Li, so he needs to use martial arts.

"Christians are first and foremost God's chosen people. As Methodist said, all human beings are sinners, and one of the essential characteristics of sinners is that they do not know God. At this time, man is completely blind spiritually.

"It was God who chose some people before the foundation of the world and sent Jesus incarnate to save them, and in due time to send the Holy Spirit to open the eyes of these elect people, so that you may know God so that you can believe in Jesus and be saved.

So it's all the result of God's election. In other words, the salvation of Christians is the result of God's work, and no one has any credit. Therefore, Christians are God's workmanship, God's new creation, and we can only thank God for His grace. ”

At least two-thirds of the people in the audience thought that their belief in the Lord was more or less related to themselves, and if they were not wise and wise, how could they have decided to believe in the Lord Jesus? Although there has been no fundamental change, at least the original idea of taking for granted is no longer taken for granted.

The second speaker was Methodist. His re-Christian nature further illustrates how to be different.

"Christians are born again by the Holy Spirit according to the will of God, and those born of God do not sin. To not sin is to remain holy. The characteristic of the Christian life is to be with God, and to be with God is to be in harmony with God's character. And to be in harmony with God is to not tolerate sin and not to be holy. Because the Lord Jesus never sinned, God is holy.

Therefore, as a Christian we must break away from our old self, never continue to sin, never sin with our hearts, and not rejoice in sinning. Whoever is still zealous about sin is not a Christian. God's house will never allow such people to continue to mingle there. ”

All of you who are truly determined today feel that this is a great wake-up call. Some people who still have some unholy habits in their hearts have no choice but to seriously face this examination question: Do they continue to be the same as they are and continue to be entangled with the old things, or do they completely change evil and turn from good to become a new person? In any case, the criteria are clear, right and wrong are understood, and a choice must be made on which way to go.

The third speaker was Luther, who had the best knowledge of justification by faith, so his theme was that the righteous are born by faith.

Justification by faith is the key to the salvation of the Governors and to the right relationship between Christians and God. Without faith, you either think there is no God, or you think there is God but it has nothing to do with you. So faith is a central essence of Christianity. Although it cannot be said that there is no qiē without faith, it can be said that without faith, you do not have a qiē.

But don't misunderstand that faith is your own wisdom, your own power, your own right choice. You can believe it, I can believe it, it's the grace of God, the result of the Holy Spirit enlightening our dark hearts and giving us saving faith as a gift. Only then can we develop faith and build our faith in the Lord Jesus.

Therefore, we are to thank God for our faith, to further strengthen our faith according to God's will and requirements, to always walk with the Lord in the way of heaven, and never change our faith. ”
