The only time I ever passed out tracts was when I had first met John and he took me with him to some big to-do at the Memorial Coliseum in Portland, OR. It was Benny Hinn or someone like him. John preached loudly outside on the sidewalk against charismatic excesses and participation in occultic practices as I hovered nearby not quite knowing what I was supposed to be doing. A group of men converged on him and demanded by what authority he preached. They wanted to know what church we went to so they could try to control him by the authority of some church leadership. We weren't attending any church. John said he was preaching by the authority of Jesus Christ! I thought they were going to beat John. I made him run with me to the car and we left.

We have cases of Chick tracts in the closet. Maybe Tony will swing by and pick us up sometime to go preaching with him on High Street near OSU in Columbus, OH. I would feel more comfortable preaching to runaways, vagrants, homosexuals and drug addicts than to christians, I think.

Your sister in Christ,

Jen, I don't have a vehicle right now, that will soon change. We'll take that walk up High Street. 5th Street in Dayton is another good one.

They called the cops on brother Bill for street preaching the other day, said there was an "ordinance" against "public" speeches here in town. Bill asked the cops, and they called the city manager, there is no "ordinance" in this town against it, they all said they were happy he was out there doing what he did. There was a man taking pictures across the street they think was the one who complained, his car was later spotted at the local Catholic Church.

Who ate with publicans and sinners, and they tried to rebuke Him for it?

Your greatest opposition on the street are from people claiming to be "Christians". Brother John's preaching had the potential not to make converts to a denomination but crimp somebody's income. Sister, I used to be a bouncer in a biker bar. With me in the group, you and John don't have to run from anybody.

Another objection "Christians" have is "...pass out tracts and nobody reads them, they just throw them down...". They get picked up and read by others. On Mars Hill the some scoffed, some said we would hear more of this.l Read my signature in all my messages. Does it say "Hail Bullinger, Hail Stam"?

His words will not return unto Him void.

I have computer problems that will be fixed soon and I can get back to email and other activities.

Grace and peace

Tony
