“For just as you once presented your members as slaves to impurity and lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness leading to sanctification.” (Romans 6:19 NET)

Dezső said that when we were sinners, we never questioned our drive to sin more, but for some reason, when Jesus calls for all of us, we often hesitate with questions. He spoke about the two paths of life, one with our face to Jesus and the other with our face to sin. One that leads to life, the other to destruction. Dezső encouraged the body to resist the lies of the enemy that Jesus’ grace is not enough and that turning to God will be useless. He encouraged us to allow Jesus to cleanse us from the inside out as we follow Him with all of our being.

Norbi attended our class before church which explains faith in Jesus and baptism. Norbi comes from a tough background and has his ups and downs in regard to his behavior toward Jesus Christ and the local church. Half a year ago, I can remember having a heated discussion with him about the dangers of his disregard for God’s word. In today’s class, Norbi with Bible in hand, was able to answer questions with the help of God’s Holy Spirit and showed signs of understanding the gospel. Change is happening in his heart by God’s grace! Please pray for Norbi to grow in his faith and to gain a complete understanding of the gospel and the practical implications for his life.

Our church is going through a difficult time as a few members (like Laci) have been laid off of work. Members of our team are also struggling financially and seeking help from God who is faithful to provide. Please pray that our church and our church planting team would receive enough money to live with and to give to bless others.

Teenager Gabi’s mother Kati and sister Niki attended church tonight. Gabi has been fervent to pray for his family’s salvation and we have seen God beginning work in their hearts. Kati, though very shy and more comfortable alone at home, has responded to her son’s invitation to come to church multiple times. Tonight, Dezső and Allen had a chance to pray with her in our small group prayer time. It was clear that she appreciated our going to the Father on her behalf. We just hope that she will someday do the same through Jesus Christ. Gabi’s sister Niki attended our class on faith in Christ and baptism. Please pray for complete clarity of the gospel in her heart and that the enemies schemes to distract and blind her from truth would be destroyed.
