Club Fair and Meetings

Here are some pictures taken from the Club Fair last Wednesday. It was a good opportunity to share the Gospel and many tracts were taken from the table, so pray that God would convict people to repent and believe.

We also have started our study of the book of Acts, so come join us Tuesday nights at 7:30 in JCSU 324 for fellowship.

New Year

Hope you all are having a good break. A couple of annoucements. First we have a new meeting time which will be Tuesday nights from 7:30 to 9:30pm in the JCSU room 324. Our first meeting date will be January 18th and I hope to see you all there. Another event to put on your calendar is on January 19th there will be a Spring Club Fair in the JCSU 4th floor ballrooms. Be there at 4:30pm to help set up the table and chairs and the event will last until 8pm that night. 

God Bless

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas

December Update

A few weeks ago Shawn Holes and a few other open air preachers who were traveling around different campuses stopped at the University of Nevada. Besides the Gospel being preached, it was a great opportunity to do one on one witnessing and hand out tracts.

Also our last meeting will be this Tuesday, November 30th. This will be a fellowship night and a celebration of Breanna's birthday. There will be food and games starting at 6pm at Lake Street. Then around 9 we will start the CCN fellowship. To start out we will be discussing what time we want to meet next semester. Once the business is done, we will watch Letters to God.

Veterans Day Witnessing

This past Veterans Day, CCN went to downtown Reno for the parade and handed out tracts and did one to ones.

Come out and join us on Veterans Day at 9:30 A.M. in the 10th Street Prayer room. We will be witnessing in downtown Reno during the Veterans Day parade. Also we will be meeting at 8 P.M. on Saturday, Nov 13 to pray and go witnessing as well.

Soli Deo Gloria

Soli Deo Gloria

Many soundly saved Christians will say the God alone gets all the glory, which He rightly deserves, but some will say God gets all the glory in everything, but in evangelism, He only gets most of the glory. This is a tragedy of some modern evangelism which chooses not to use the law in hopes that their presentation of the Gospel will appeal to the person they are witnessing to. Before I explain why God gets the totally glory when the law is used, let me show the precedent in scripture first. Psalm 19:7 says, “The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul.” It is the law which converts the soul, it is not by trying to entice their intellect and mind with the fruits of salvation. Romans 3:19-20, “Now we know that whatever the laws says it speaks to those who are under the law, so the every mouth may be stopped, and the who world may be held accountable to God. For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight, since through the law comes knowledge of sin” and Romans 7:7” If it had not been for the law, I would not have known what sin was.” Paul is clearly stating that the law was an integral part of the salvation God gave to him. It did not save him, but rather lead him to the place where he could accept God’s grace. Galatians 3:24, “Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster that brings us to Christ.” The law was just a mean show us our need for Christ. The law does not save us, it only leaves us condemned before Christ. So why does God receive all the glory when the law is used in evangelism? It is contrary to human wisdom to use the law. Human wisdom demands we win people to Christ by being a good salesman and giving the right sales pitch. The law would be the last thing one would want to say, because it would make the prospective buyer feel uncomfortable. And when the person buys or accepts Christ, the person who evangelized can give God the glory for giving them words to speak, but they can take credit for making the good sales pitch. But when the law is used, one most rely solely on the Holy Spirit to convict the heart using the law. Then if the Spirit brings conviction, the sinner will see their absolute need for Christ and beg that the Gospel be given to them, rather than as before, where the evangelist was just trying to convince the person that they needed Christ. Therefore when the law is used, God receives the glory in every step a sinner takes on the road that God had planned out for their salvation.    

Come out this Tuesday to the JCSU room 324 at 9pm to hear about the use of your time and Jonathan Edward's resolutions which he made in his young adults life.

Praise God for Fruit! Great News!

Hello CCN-ers!
I hope and pray that you are having an excellent summer!
I wanted to share with you something amazing that God has done! On Sunday, Pastor Danny Daley of Living Stones told Ryan and I that Pastor Donald Zimmerman met a girl at Living Stones that said that she first started coming to Living Stones after she came to "Stump the Chump", the event that we held this last Spring!!!! Apparently she had come with someone who left after he found out he had to wait an hour for pizza, but she decided to stay. After that, the Lord worked miraculously and saved her! Now she faithfully attends Living Stones weekly! This is good news! Praise be to God!
I thought that this would be encouraging to hear. Just faithfully keep on spreading the gospel and you never know what God will do! Keep on keeping on.
CCN Summers- Use your summer to the glory of God!

Some of us have been faithfully sharing the gospel downtown and around Reno throughout the summer. If you are interested in getting involved with CCN this summer, please email Breanna at braumagirl@yahoo.com and she will add you to the Summer emailing list so that you can know what's going down!

Upcoming

What Makes a Christian?

Hello Brothas and Sistas in Christ!

This week we are having an outreach on campus. If you do not plan on attending PLEASE be with us in prayer for it. We will be engaging with students on campus over the question WHAT MAKES A CHRISTIAN? In our weekly meetings we have been studying true and false conversions and now have a good understanding of what it means to truly be a Christian. We would love to apply this teaching in the evangelism realm by asking students on campus what they think it means to be a Christian and then clarify in areas in which they may not truly understand.

This Event will be in front of the Knowledge Center from 11:00am-1pm Monday-Thursday this week!

We had sign ups last week, but we would love for anyone to just stop by if they have a few minutes in between classes.

If you signed up, the days and times that you signed up for are down below:
