Went a-Soulwinning....

With an Assembly of God friend of mine last Saturday night.


It wasn't planned at first-- it just happened.


An awkward moment came when my friend wanted me to lead our new convert in a "sinner's prayer". In fact, my friend asked me if I knew, "The Sinner's Prayer" and I told him, "No," but I was willing to pray.


The most awkward moment came when after my friend led the new convert in a "sinner's prayer", he announced to the new convert,

"YOU'RE SAVED! YOU'RE SAVED!! HOW DO YOU FEEL?"

The guy said he felt good, felt happy.





But I could not help to feel that somehow, something was missing.

I told him with as much intensity as I could that God had so much more for him and that he is not to stop here- but to keep seeking the Lord, reading and obeying His Word.


We parted ways soon after that.


I have prayed for this guy, but I can't shake the feeling that there was indeed something incomplete about the whole transaction.



Just thought I'd share this experience.
