Guiding The Lost To Christ!

[nChrist]

Oklahoma Howdy to All,

I was a Christian police officer for 25 years, and I saw people at their very worst an uncountable number of times. I feel blessed that God gave me the opportunity to witness to these people on and off duty. I firmly believe that God gives opportunities to all of his children to witness, and it's up to us what we do with that opportunity.

In Christ,
Tom

A Police Officer witnessing!! Tom! Tom, now THAT is a rarity. I can't imagine a Police Officer in Australia witnessing to anyone!

Love..Tamara.

Oklahoma Howdy to Tamara,

The majority of the officers on my department are Christian. Some are more active than others. It's hard to imagine the suffering many people go through, and a police officer is many times there for the worst of it.

In Christ,
Tom

As I can imagine Tom. Some of these folk are lost lonely and bewildered.  What a priviledge you have to know them.  And to have the opportunity to witness to them.
These poor souls have often been hardened by the blows of life.  And all they need is a gentle touch of Love.  Something many of them would find hard to comprehend would be Love.
Father placed you in the right place.  May He be Praised!
An Aussie G'day Mate to you Tom.  And...God Bless you.

Love..Tamara.

Oklahoma Howdy to Tamara,

There are many things I'll never forget that I don't enjoy talking about (i.e. the dying, dead, maimed, the children, and worse). Some people's lives appear to explode and torn to shreds before your very eyes. God's Word is many times the only medicine that will help. For many officers, God's Word is a frequent and powerful tool.

In Christ,
Tom

An Australian 'G'day Mate!" to Tom.


I cannot begin to even imagine the suffering you have seen.  It was enough for me to be the first on the scene of a fatal accident on a Country road.  NEVER  would I have imagined the suffering of the ones who lived and watched their friends die in their arms.  At times like these, the Word of God is the most powerful weapon a Police Officer can have.
For that reason alone what better job can a christian have.
Police Officer's are in a jurisdiction of total respect.  People expect questions...not words of God.  
These words given in correct situations are more powerful than machine guns.  My mind boggles at the thought.

What a priviledge. And even though you will always carry the scars of seeing human sufferings in horrific conditions, you have the consolation that you carried the Word of God in your heart - and gave it willingly to the suffering.  And the memory will be locked in their hearts forever of the Police Officer who just happened to be there at that brief moment of time.  How many times will these folk say " ...but, I'll never forget the Police Officer who said...."
How many testimonies Tom...how many have they brought to God because of that brief moment in time...and...that Police Officer.

Love...Tamara.

Oklahoma Howdy to Ambassador4Christ,

AMEN BROTHER! - God has truly blessed you and your family. Brother, I give thanks for you and what you mean to the Christian fellowship here. You and Brother Love have provided links to devotionals and other Bible study material that has really been a blessing to me. I am also still studying many of your posts you made earlier.

Thank you Brother for sharing.

In Christ,
Tom

Amen Brother

The biblical writer Jude (the half brother of Jesus) reminds us to “snatch others from the fire and save them...” You and I are on a life saving mission from God to grab people from the precipice of hell and bring them safely to the gate of heaven. Sound difficult? Not really. All we need to do is share with them the message of the cross, and the rest is up to them.

PTL & Amen

Brother Love
