Cody was with the Street Evangelists on 09/23/2006 in Princeton & Cody also met two Chinese Christians, introduced by one of the Evangelists & had lunch (they also witnessed in Princeton back in 2003) . See prayer letters below:
1. Evangelism in Princeton, NJ (09/22/06 & 09/23/06)--2nd Princeton University Student to join us on the Streets--PDF (Cody was with them on 09/23/06)
There have been only two dedicated Princeton University students, one who graduated in 2010 (from California) and the other in 2007 (from Texas) who would openly evangelize to their fellow classmates and evangelize on the streets on a consistent basis. However, the first Princeton University student to go out street witnessing was a student who was an athlete of Swedish origin in 2003 and was a member of Athletes in Action (AIA) at Princeton University.
The NJIAT President met the Princeton University student (Cody) from Texas at a Princeton University lecture given by Maggie Gallagher from the Institute for Marriage and Public Policy on why people should support marriage between a man and a wife--the NJIAT President raised his hand to ask Maggie the following question: "How can you defend marriage between a man and woman unless you appeal to the Bible"? She was upset with the NJIAT president's question because she was trying to prove marriage from nature (Natural Law) and tried to show how most societies accept marriage and people are happier--she had no authority for marriage (a creation ordinance in Genesis) because she did not appeal to the Scriptures--this is a major difference between Protestantism and Roman Catholicism --the Protestants believe in Sola Scriptura as the ultimate authority, not sola ratione. (The Princeton University Texas student, who became a born-again Christian while in college, shook the NJIAT president's hand after the lecture and said it took courage to defend the Bible.)
