The Man That Got Thrown Out Of Jail Book PDF Summary
This might sound like a strange title for a book, but as you will see it fits. It was back in 1979 that I had a life-changing event that took place right after I turned 41, but before I tell you what happen I just want to say this, that God gave me a gift. At the time, I didn't have any idea on how to use this gift because this was something new to me and I didn't even know that I had this gift. Are you confused yet? Maybe This will help. When the Lord ascended it is said that he gave gifts to the church. Gifts like apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds, and teachers. The reason he gave all these gifts was for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the building up of the body of Christ, His church. The Lord made sure that after he left this world he was going to equip men with all these gifts to help in the ministry of His church, (He called it his body). You see that is what the true church is, it is the hand of God reaching down to mankind here on earth. It is an extension of Christ work with the human race. Now getting back to the gift He gave me, He gave me the gift of evangelism. Maybe you are asking how do I know he gave me this gift. Well, He put it in my heart to want to reach out to those who are leading a life like I did before my conversion. I want to evangelize those who are locked up behind bars. The undesirables of the world; those that are locked up and kept apart from what we call the free society. A few years ago I started a jail ministry and everything was going great. It was as if the Lord had lit a fire under me and I was going to the jail three times a week and also doing one on one's with some of the inmates. But deep down I felt that something was wrong. The Jail administrator seemed to be real cold toward me and I heard her make comments like, "if I had it my way, these inmates wouldn't have any activities like this." While I was there she took some of the privileges away for the inmates. Things like coffee during the meeting. I know for a fact, that some of them would come out just because they could get a cup of coffee. It was a way of getting some inmates to hear what God wanted to say to them through His Word, the Bible. So when this privilege was taken away the numbers dropped. It was as if the devil was trying to prevent God's Word from being heard. She seemed to be watching me like a hawk, just waiting for me to slip up, and I did. To me, it was just a small thing but she made a big deal about it. What I did was to say something to one of the inmates about one of the jailers. I live in a very small town of 2500 people and most people knew one another. One day I was doing a one on one with one of the female inmates when I found out she was the step-daughter to one of my neighbors, and the house on the other side of my house belonged to one of the jailers. In the midst of the conversation, I made the comment that three of us were all neighbors. Apparently there was a rule that I was not to do this, and this is what she was waiting for. Because of this, I was thrown out of the jail, and that is where I came up with the title of this book. When this happen some of the inmates were asking if I could come back, I really felt excepted by them, and to be real honest, I really had a heart for those that were locked up. There was a real connection. I was there to help them, and they came to know this. Now I didn't leave them cold turkey. I had a younger man going to the jail with me to help, and when I left, he took over for me. And by the way, he is still there and doing a great job. D. L. Moody inspired me to write this book even though he is dead. I read something that gave me the idea to put these stories together. In the following pages, you will find some stories about lives that were changed by coming in contact with God through an evangelist that was sent to them by God Himself. And I truly believe that God is sending his workers out into the field for the harvest is ripe and ready. My hope is that this book will change lives by bringing some to the saving grace of God. God is in the business of saving lives saving marriages saving families; He is in the saving business. I know this because he saved me, saved my marriage, and has save many in my family.
