Video of “The Gospel Invasion of Las Vegas” (Rated R)
I was asked to join a team of missionaries in a four-day missions trip in Las Vegas, Nevada. This trip included, but was not limited too ~
- Prayer raids over the city
- Air campaigns up and down the strip
- Proclaiming the Gospel via our signs, and my new Christian flag (This flag waves 12 feet in the air)
- Open-Air sermons thru the Bible
- Crying out
- Many one-on-one encounters
- Prayed over many people
- Preaching inside casinos
- Preaching in restaurants
- Preaching on streets corners
- Shared Christ in night clubs / bars
- Distributed many Gospel tracts
- And so much more.
We praise the Lord that we were met with many challenges and obstacles. It is my personal policy to strive to ignore hecklers while preaching. However, one became combative and assaulted me; therefore I had to engage him. See in below comments regarding that incident.
We expected much opposition, and even hatred from the world. But sadly so many that professed to be Christian (I call them ‘believers,’) thought they had the Spirits gift of telling us we should not preach in Las Vegas. However, the Lord brought some Christians from Egypt, and then another Christian couple from New Jersey to us, which the Lord used to edify and exhort us in the Lord. What a blessing they were. Our brothers from Egypt even donated some money to help with our costs. Although the exhortation and edification, was just as appreciated.
Please pray for all those seeds this team planted. All the glory goes to the Lord. “And He said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.” Mark 16:15
I took hours of video. However due to time constraints, and the sensitive content of some video; I only uploaded a fraction of this trip. Below is the edited video. Due to foul language, this video is Rated R.
Disclaimer: This was not an IPOC Ministries outreach. It was a joint effort by many Christians, from different churches, and/or ministries. For documentation purposes, I simply filmed some of it. There were some Open-Air preachers in Las Vegas, that I would not align myself with.
Our trip to San Diego Comic Con can be seen here.

As I was preaching thru Hebrews, the worse demonic heckler I’ve ever experienced while preaching screamed profanities in my face, and directly into my ears for a long time. He then pushed me, and knocked the Bible out of my hands. I then kept preaching from memory. However he escalated his battery contact with me, so I placed him into a control hold, and was about to take him down (which would have been justifiable both criminally and Biblically.) Instead, we held him, and laid hands on him. This man’s voice then changed voices and tones. We audibly pleaded the name of Jesus, and the blood of Christ over this man. His multiple voices kept changing, as he threatened to kill me. It was then we realized this man was demon possessed. Out of nowhere, the Lord used a large group of men to extract him away. The police later responded, however I declined to file a report. The Lord allowed me to use this as a springboard into the continuation of my message. Regretfully no one was videotaping at that time. It would have been a great video for others to see.
FYI some clarification folks: The fellow walking in front of me with the large white megaphone was not even using his inside the casino. My small ‘Aker-38’ amplification device puts out minimal decimals. Perhaps some of the slot machines were louder than it?
Either way, I am always open for a ‘Biblical’ rebuke and/or correction. If (if) I ever do preach inside a casino again, I will simply ‘cry out’ with ‘no’ amplification.
I do want to encourage all of you to keep pressing on, and sharing the Good News.
For those of you that profess to be a Christian, that do not believe in open-air preaching (which IS Biblical;) please watch this video. Fellow ‘believers,’ repent and believe in the Gospel (Luke 15:3) before it’s too late.
“An open air street evangelist proclaims the gospel in the open air of a busy transit station in Ottawa. One man, David, is particularly struck by the truth in the message he is hearing. Three weeks later, something happens to David that would change his life, as he knew it, forever.”
