Mission: Street Fishin (Hawaii)
Mission: Street Fishin in Kona, Hawaii
Here is a video blog about our mission trip to Kona, Hawaii
We hope you will enjoy it and be blessed by it.
As Bible believing, Born Again Christians we share the gospel with those who are not saved. Our mission as believers is to share the gospel of Jesus Christ EVERYWHERE we go, to whomever will listen, to reason with people using the truth and the authority of God’s word. We sometimes find ourselves in the most challenging of locations locally ... on the streets in our area or while traveling abroad. Our mission field is in our own area, but we are to share the gospel on the highways and byways as we travel through life. So when we were on a trip to Hawaii we ensured that we would have the opportunity to reach out to the vacationers and the locals with the gospel, through prior arrangements with local believers.
Hawaii is not a place like Heaven, the quality of life of those living on the island has many who live in tree houses, in cars, or are simply homeless facing just as much poverty, addiction, and heartache as people in other places in the United States and around the world. No place on earth is free of the consequences of sin!
The group we met with usually witness at this location in downtown Kona because so many people stop for a port visit via cruise ships during the middle of the week. However, the day we were there the cruise ships had already visited for the week. So we talked to people who were vacationing nearby or who were locals. We also ran into some YWAM people and got an opportunity to talk to a few of these people about the biblical gospel and our commission by Christ to share the gospel with people, not just do good deeds. We do good deeds because of Christ in our life, and we share that information with those we help, so they know why we do it. It’s for the sake of the gospel because of our gratitude and love towards Jesus Christ for saving us from our sins and God’s coming wrath upon all who die without Christ Jesus as their God and Savior. So we have a divine appointment during that charity or deeds to share the gospel with those people and represent Christ not just as a lifestyle witness, but also verbally. For Scripture rightly says that they can not know the gospel unless someone tells them, and they can not hear it unless someone goes out to do that.
We were compelled to reach the lost while we were in Hawaii, because we know that 160,000 people die every day in this world and we couldn’t imagine not sharing the gospel that can and will save them from the wrath of God and eternal Hell. We know many who were there when we were, were walking down the streets unaware of whether that day or week or month was their last on this Earth. We did not want them to step into eternity without knowing their need for Christ and know how to be saved. Every individual has an appointed lifespan determined by God, and they have an appointed day in which they will be Judged if they leave this earth while they are still unforgiven sinners (Hebrews 9:27) and none know when their last day on earth will be. Therefore, as long as we're able to talk and others are able to hear, we will continue to share the gospel, glorify the Lord and reach souls for Christ. We are on a mission...to spread the Word to as many as we can wherever God takes us during our time on this earth. And we count it a privilege to share this message of salvation and this evangelism vlog with you. It is all to glorify the Lord, encourage the Saints in Christ, and to reach the lost while there is still time. If you do not know the Lord as your Personal Savior, or you profess Christ as your Lord but want to make sure you are correctly saved and will go to Heaven when you die or the Lord returns to take Christians to Heaven, please visit this website today. Get right with God today, sort it out now, because tomorrow is not guaranteed. http://www.needgod.com/
