Eyewitnesses

WTW July 2021
Week 3
2 Peter

14 July

There were about 40 JESUS people at the outreach event last night. Every one could give you at least a ten minute recap of the time. Some could give you a 30 minute review.

One man whose name I don’t know yet…the man in the green shirt…was described by one very knowledgeable JESUS follower as a Muslim who would not get any visions because he understood and could explain the Good News message completely. He didn’t need anyone to explain anymore but was disturbed because his mother is dying and has no assurance of salvation in Islam.

I finally broke away to take my boys to join the group of 5 men where the man in the green shirt was intently talking in Arabic to the man holding the coffee cup. Not 15 minutes later, I found out from one of the other 5 men recapping that conversation to the knowledgeable man that the man in the green shirt actually is a JESUS follower no one else actually met before.

Of the multiple thousands of people who became devoted JESUS followers in the first century spending thousands of hours following JESUS and his companions and ministers, and speaking and telling others about Him, we are blessed to have 27 written accounts about all the things which took place.

For we did not follow cleverly devised stories when we told you about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ in power, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. He received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.” We ourselves heard this voice that came from heaven when we were with him on the sacred mountain. 2 Peter 1:16‭-‬18
