Testimonies?????

[SVT93Style]

What I have not seen on this forum is anyone's testimony....probably b/c not all who browse this forum believe, which is fine, but this should not hold us back from sharing our experiences. I would gladly share mine but not sure if it should be a P.M. thing or in the open forum? I see so many non believers sweat the details about Christianity, which holds them back from believeing....which I completeley understand, which is why I feel so thankful for what happened to me....

Thoughts...

I could go into details later if someone is interested, but basically I had a series of events that all lead in the same direction and then once I was there, a confirmation. It all made me realize how God has a plan for all of us and there are no coincidences in life. They all happen for a reason. I realized everything that had happened in my life, no matter how insignificant had happened for a reason and it was to lead me to that point.

Why do you bother to come into this forum?

What makes you think this forum is strictly for christians? It's the Theology forum, not the christian forum. I do not hesitate to crack jokes in any forum. Lighten up.

What happend to you is you cannot explain to you mind what is happening so like all the other sheep you resort to insanity and think/tell your self that God is real and has a plan for me and that makes you feel better..........great, but its BS................Just because something signifigant or tragic happens in your life that doesn't mean a God is there helping you! You are not special, those poor starving African children sure aren't special are they??? The starving kids in S. America aren't special..........
All those Jews killed by Hitler weren't of any importance to God.........Why would you be.........Wake up and feel Reality................we are alone and in charge....................We make the rules and break them.........Man!

That is how you feel. You dont see us mocking your beliefs and berating you do you? Do you know how the world was created? Do you really think it all just evolved from a single cell that came out of nowhere? Just all of the sudden appeared? Were you there? Did you see it? Then how do you know? The same thing with religion. Nobody knows everything. Some things you just gotta accept. Besides think of it this way. If there is no God, then none of this matters. But if what we believe IS in fact true, who will be laughing last?

I'll share my testimony....

I was not brought up in a Christian home. I did attend the Catholic church on occasion and was even enrolled in a Catholic school for a few years, but the only thing that happened from this was guilt. I was told daily that I would go to hell if I died, not because I didn't know Jesus as my personal Lord and Savior, but because I had never been baptized and had never received communion. This was at a time when the church believed in purgatory...not sure if this is the case anymore.

For a long time, I knew something was missing from my life. I married when I was 20 years old to a man who appeared to be decent, hardworking and in love with me. Time told a different story. The man I married ended up being abusive. I later found out he is bipolar which explains a lot. I have children with this man, and because I didn't want them growing up thinking that fighting and abuse was a normal marriage, I left their dad and we somehow made it on our own.

I later remarried. My current husband grew up in a Christian home and was a Baptist. We did not go to church before we got married. It was 5 years into our marriage before we were invited to church by our neighbors. We went and I was in total shock. The evangelical pastor truly spoke the word of God, but it was so different than the Catholic church that I didn't know what to think. He gave an invitation at the end of the service which I did not act on. I felt I needed to, but was so unsure of everything, I didn't. We went back the next 2 weeks. On our third visit, the Holy Spirit was knocking so hard on my heart that when the invitation was given I gave my heart and life to Jesus. I walked down the aisle and was baptized one week later. I remember to this day how I felt. RELIEVED. The hole that had been in my life for so long was no longer there. Jesus filled it completely. I will never be the same again, and honestly, I never want to return to that person that I was before Jesus made me whole.

Unlike the other gods that are talked about in today's world, my King gave His life for me, instead of asking me to give my life for Him. Man couldn't make up this story, because man is about himself and not about sacrificing for others. If no other thing tells you there is a higher power, this should. A higher power who sacrificed Himself for your sins and mine because He loved you so much and wants you to spend eternity with Him.

Let me ask you a question - Why Would Jesus Die? Think about it. It wasn't for Himself. He was already in heaven and perfect in every way, so why would He need to come down here and sacrifice His life?

Why Would Jesus Get Baptized? Again, just think about it and if needed pray about it. You will get the answers you are seeking if you just give God a chance to show you what you are seeking.

For those who are skeptical, bash me if that is what you choose to do, as you do have that choice. My choice was to be honest and upfront and speak of how Jesus changed my life. Am I perfect - no. Will I sin again - yes. However, I am a child of the King and no one and nothing can change that. I am a sinner saved by grace. I serve a merciful God who loved me so much that He sent His only begotten PERFECT SON to die on a cross for my sins and I will never forget that.

It is so easy to be a child of God. All you have to do is admit you are a sinner, say that you believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and ask Him to come into your heart and be your Savior.

God Bless Each and Everyone who reads this post - believer and non-believer. Have a blessed day and remember God loves you.
