NORBI PUT HIS FAITH IN JESUS TONIGHT

P1060725

Norbi had already attended a study at Miki's house on Tuesday, and was with me on Wednesday night where we were able to share the Gospel with him. We challenged Norbi to count the cost before making this commitment of faith in Jesus. Tonight after worship service, Norbi asked again for clarification about the meaning of repentance, belief in Jesus and baptism. Dezső and I sat with Norbi and it became clear that he was ready to believe. Teenager Niki who has attended our church for over a year (and is herself close to a decision) also witnessed our discussion with Norbi and finally, Norbi’s prayer putting his trust in Jesus as Lord and Savior of his life.

TAMÁS PUT HIS FAITH IN JESUS

In our last blog entry below, we mentioned a turning point for married couple Tamás and Ági. They have been faithful to continue meeting with Dezső and attended small group and church. Tamás, earlier in the week met with Dezső for more Bible study and counseling. Tamás began asking, "So how can I be saved?" "When can I be saved?" Dezső shared the story of Philip and the Ethiopian Eunuch. He said, you can be saved anytime as long as you understand the Gospel and are willing to repent and believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Apparently, the Spirit had already been at work in Tamás and he was ready to put his faith in Jesus.

Tamás and Ági have already registered to go to the Christian recovery center, and we hope that Ági will also come to put her trust in Jesus in that time.

“The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.”—John 3:8

I am amazed with how the Holy Spirit over these past two weeks has been at work! Three weeks ago, there was no Norbi in our midst and there was no Tamás. Through a series of sovereignly planned events, God drew these two men to encounter His Son Jesus Christ. We praise Him for His gracious work to bring about new birth in their lives! Please pray for Norbi and Tamás and praise God for His work to save them!

With just ten minutes before we planned to begin service, Miki commented that it didn’t look like we would have many people tonight. Then with just a few minutes before service, people began streaming in! Teenager Zoli’s mother Ildiko and grandmother Magdi came once again. And this time Magdi brought a neighbor with her to church!
