Chicago

A few weekends ago we were in the windy city and we exhorted Chicago of the great fire in 1871 where Mrs O’Leary knocked over a lantern in a barn. 

That fire killed 300 people, destroyed roughly 3.3 square miles and left more than 100,000 residents homeless. That is NOTHING compared to the eternal fire we preached about in that city.


As with any event we have a game plan, a reason, a purpose, we don’t just show up and say ‘what do we do now Lord?’ 
“Where there is no vision, the people perish….” Proverbs 29:18


FRIDAY:

The first day we spend on Michigan Ave and preached a simple message of knowing the God of the Bible.


This was a Muslim boy who wanted to debate equality and that did not last long after I pointed out what Islam teaches.



The police were called and later said we had every right to do what we do, they just wanted the volume of our megaphone lowered, as it echoed within the concrete jungle.


Later that day we preached union station from 3-7PM, as this artery will get thousands and thousands of people coming to the station to get their train, tram and bus as they exit the city from work. 




The police were called in because I preached there was no guarantee anyone will make it home that day, we know a Muslim can bomb that tram for Allah. 

Because I used the ‘B’ word and people felt terrified because I said ‘bomb’ police questioned me. 

I said I will use the ‘B’ word ‘bullet’ when I preach on the south side and that does not mean I will be shooting anyone. I

argued it is a fact Islam may bomb union station, that is why so many police are there and I am not a bomber. I asked what bomber will stand outside with a sign and megaphone?

They understood, they just asked not to use the ‘B’ word, so people walking will not feel terrified. 

I believe the religion of Islam has terrified Americans, hence they deserve the word ‘terrorist’



Brother Vadim and sisters Alina and Angela joined us as we reminded the people of reading the Bible today rather than a newspaper, magazine or looking at their cellphone.




After that picture, we did a little reconnaissance for the next day as there were events we have not preached at and I needed to see the location. 


SATURDAY:
There was a lesbian and tranny march at a local park, a sodomite event at the pier and the porno convention was in town, so I needed to scout those areas. The next day we went to lesbian and tranny march at a local park, this event looked small, looked like a small group having a barbque in the park……until we raised our banners and started to preach…..





The words of Jesus are TRUE:
“And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me”
John 12:32

Once His name was lifted, did they come running, it was like kicking a bees nest.


They tried to cover our banners with signs

“Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah”
Psalm 140:8


Of course the police were called in and within minutes knew we were not the problem.



Now this was a park where people were walking their dogs, kids were playing and family was sitting around not knowing this event was going on.

SO WE WARNED THEM!! 

What did they have on public display at this gathering?


So in the spirit of ‘loving thy neighbor’ I turned my megaphone around and warned the neighborhood of this wicked event and sodomites walking in their park. The only difference between a homosexual and a child molester is….just a matter of time.



A number of families were sitting on the porch watching LIGHT collide with darkness in their park.

Some people left the park and thanked us for coming. This is a family park not a Target bathroom.



After we were escorted to our vehicle by CPD we were off to another location and that would be the Navy Pier

BOARDWALK:


Only the Boardwalk was filled with rainbow flags to celebrate gay weekend in Chicago.

After we parked we took an elevator to the top of the dock and was met with the police within minutes. 

We did not preach, we did not raise a banner, we were stop and were told that management said we must leave.



We were threatened with arrest if we did not leave the pier, I refused and ask for a commander or at least someone in this ‘management’ to speak with.

Someone did come out and told us we were ‘protesters’ to which I asked ‘what are we protesting?’ I was told because we had signs we were protesters. We could not use signs and megaphones were not allowed on the pier. 

I agreed and said if I take the rolled up banners and megaphone away would we still be protesters? 

He walked away and got on the phone for a few minutes and said ‘No.’ 

We removed the signs and megaphone and I called others who were joining us to not bring a banner.



We were told we could not preach and all we could do is walk with our shirts. I was warned if they get any more complaints we would be removed. 

I said ‘expect them.’ So we walked the boardwalk with our shirts and were followed everywhere by police. We did not preach to people BUT we did speak loudly to each other and if anyone wanted to listen they could. 



We walked and stood around for some time and crowds would gather just from our shirts



I did not preach but I did ask street preach JK out loud questions about certain people who stood around us. 



Of course at one point they tried to cover us up with signs and they were told to remove that sign



We continued to walk and “make no small stir” just with the shirts as the police and event security followed our every step.



It was getting dark and the officer in charge asked me just how long we were staying, I said ‘All night….however if we walk where the Aids Quilt is, we will leave……IF they also give us our $28.00 for parking.’ He agreed and the city paid for our parking.



The officer kept to his word and we walked into the sacred quilt where names are quilted for those who have died of AIDS, as if they were victims.

This was the mourning section on the pier because inside a building were the portions of the ‘Aids Quilt’ and this is all you get after you die of a disease.

99.9% of those names were male and most were under the age of 40.

Very sobering to walk in there with our shirts as police were following because that place could have imploded for ungodly preachers to be there.



Wonder if those names on that Aids Quilt feel proud now?

We kept our word, we were escorted to our vehicle, and the city paid for our parking. 

I even had a chance to pray for the officer in change before we left the parking garage.

Tell me there is no God?

Sometimes if all you have to witness is a shirt, it is good to have that right shirt for the occasion as those shirt spoke loud and clear as God directed our path on that boardwalk.

“In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths”
Proverbs 3:6


You can shirt those walking tracts at 


SUNDAY:


The next day, was game day, the sodomite parade where some 750,000 people lined the streets to cheer sin. 




Before we set up banners we made sure our speakers were working to compete with the noise level on the street and this year street preacher Tim (white shirt) hooked up three speakers a top a ladder. 

He wired the speakers together with a roll of duct tape and after the sound check, we were ready to proclaim what God says.



AND PROCLAIM WE DID



As our outdoor service was ready, with banners flying high and street preachers exposing the sin of the day with repentance and belief in Jesus Christ as the only remedy.




Once we started to preach our outdoor congregation gathered to hear the message.

“The LORD said to me, "Son of man, these are the men who plan evil and give wicked advice in this city.”
Ezekiel 11:2



“For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform”
Psalm 21:11



“Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp rasor, working deceitfully”
Psalm 52:2



Even during the parade, those in the parade noticed the banners on the sidewalk, heard the preaching and responded.



Some in our outdoor congregation even made signs against us for some reason.


“For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head”
Psalm 83:2



We do mix politics into our preaching and this woman said we were ‘haters’ but stood on a snake with President Trump face on it. 

She stood around for hours in a trance.



Someone even brought a pig to the parade and it was pointed out in Leviticus 18:22-23

"Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion”


Man shall not lie with another man AND THE VERY NEXT VERSE IS beastiality, does the Bible hit pay dirt?

Of course the Police were standing around us for our protection, because if there was a ‘hot spot’ on that parade route our location would be the place. 

Two rows of wooden barricades were used as we were not the problem, one can clearly see this with the police facing the sodomites.




We even made time to answer questions to those who waited.



Since the ‘gay community’ promotes diversity, we gave them variety. Women street preachers and did they get a reaction, as the screaming begun trying to drown out the preaching.



Even with all the chaos here is a person who has stood around us for years, he mocked us, he stood around yelling at us in the past, but that day he tried to talk to me and decided to give me a note to read.



The note read, that he was "sorry for people being rude to us because he understands that we only want to help them."

Another older person came by just to shake my hand, he said he saw and heard us for years. 

God is convicting him and he truly wants to repent but still has issues with lust. He asked for prayer and left the parade. We do pray the Lord to send other laborers to reap our harvest

“I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours”
John 4:38



We will work that rocky soil and uproot that ground to make ready planting that seed, watering that seed and hope others can reap that harvest.


The picture below was taken and used on the Chicago tribune News website



This was a group that feels the need to stand in front of us because we can harm those watching the parade.  It is said homosexual will kill themselves and we are to blame!!
I
t is a religious group and this picture was taken from their website, which reads:
‘Join us for the #MakeLoveLouder campaign - a tongue-in-cheek, counter-protest organized to inject humanity, laughter, love, and hugs into an emotionally and spiritually toxic space at the 2017 Chicago Pride Parade! We'll station ourselves directly in front of the cordoned off protest area, offering a message of support, solidarity, and care for paraders--in contrast to the message of bigotry, shame, and stigma projected by those behind us.’


They love to stand around watching the crowd and telling them they are loved and special to their god unlike us.

“Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin”
Isaiah 30:1


Homosexual churches admit that Sodom and Gomorrah was destroyed but the reason was that city was not hospitable and not men having sex with each other. The book of Jude sheds light on what that wickedness was:

“Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire”
Jude 7


We were there to publicly preach, warn, debate, challenge, resist, answer questions and contend for the faith

“Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints”
Jude 1:3


Think we preach harsh on homosexuality, consider what Paul writes in Roman chapter 1 that the sin of sodomy is worthy of death:

“Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death”


PRAY FOR US AS THIS WEEKEND WE WILL BE IN SAN DIEGO FOR THAT SODOMITE PARADE!




Thank You for your PRAYERS
