I didn't, but I did listen to Dr. Charles Stanley preach.  He was wonderful.  If rhere was ever a man to be admired, he is the man.  I have so much respect for him.  An ethereal awe.

awesome testimony. It's so refreshing to find other believers out there who are actively ministering to people.\nI had a similar experience with the Holy Ghost, and I haven't quite been the same since then.

First off don't be discouraged at all of the hateful responses you'll see posted. They just haven't see God's love yet. Pray for them.\n\nAs for me, to make it brief because it's kind of long, I was instantly healed physically from the damage that alcohol abuse done to me. I was never interested in God or the whole "religious" thing until one day I went to my cousins church and they prayed for me and I was delivered in an instant! It was truly a miracle. Ever since then (June 9th, 2002) I haven't had a sip of alcohol and have completely devoted my entire life to serving Him. I cannot fully express the joy I have experienced in these almost four years of walking with Jesus. But I know I still have a lot of work to do for Him.  God Bless You amanda2008 God be with you.

Yes, I am most definitely saved by grace through faith.  I am certainly sad for the non-Christians who have given the negative answers to salvation to this question.  They will be in for a HUGE shock at the end, won't they????Anyway, I will pray for them.

"He who has ears, let him hear."\n\nOnce, I asked Jesus to come and live in me, like he said him and his father would if asked.\n\nYears later, I was at a tough place in my life. \n\nI was alone and I was scared and frustrated and angry.\n\nI cried out "God, you said you would come and live in me, so where are you?! I cant see you, I can't hear you, talk to me please, show me your self, why won't you communicate with me?!!"\n\nThen i heard it...clearly in my mind.\n\n"I am with you right now, I have always been with you. I haven't left you. Its going to be ok..." and He was speaking with my own voice!\n\nInstantly I realized that He was always with me, BUT my recognition of Him, my ability to hear Him was clouded and blocked off because I was still under the impression that I was seperate from Him.  \n\nBut of course, God's gift of Jesus and each person's own sincere acceptence on faith is/was the seed that fianally grew into a real relationship.\n\nFinally it was as clear as day. His voice was my own voice in my head. He had come to live in me and was always speaking with me. The scriptures "I and my father are one" and "nothing can seperate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus" came to be an understandable reality for me.\n\nHearing is about wanting to hear and then listening. \n\n"Faith is the assurence of things hoped for and the substance of things unseen."\n\nNow, I hear and see God in more and more interesting and new ways. The whole thing really panned out and i gotta say- it was all worth believing in.

I am in total agreement with you.  If you ever want Biblical proof of God's abiding love, just recall Jesus' parable of The Prodigal Son.  Each one of us is the Son, and God is the father.  All God wants us to do is come home, and all will be forgiven.  It's what Jesus died for--payment for the sins of the world for all time.

Yes! I would also send out someone to pick up some food because there are so many disciples today! I love the word of God! The Good News! Jesus died not only for me but you and the rest of the world! Hosanna to the Highest! I would welcome anyone with open arms though!

No.\nI had a great time at the church outreach last night.\nWe packed the place! It was Great!\nIf you missed it, you missed it.

Yea I went to church today. We learned how Jesus impacted our lives and what he think of us?  Those that don't attend church miss a good change to fellowship with believers and to come to know Christ more. I find those that don't know anything about the Lord avoid going to church. Only Satan makes you avoid church.

I believe you are very right in alot of new or unfed Christian hearts. We get complacent and don't read The Bible and get refreshed on what EVERY follower of God had to go through! Paul had the thorn in his side, Stephen got killed, all were mocked! Look at poor Job, what a price to pay! When we really start to follow The Good Shepherd's voice just know that He's going to lead you into "The valley of the shadow of death" at some point in your life to test your faith in Him(with good right!). Good question and point to make, friend! I hope that helps you. God bless.

Awesome! I believe you are diving in deep to the kingdom of GOD. \nWe know that Jesus was crucified so that we would have a way home to the very throne of GOD in Heaven but did you ever think that maybe in addition to that way back home, GOD wanted to be able to break through the sin and rebellion that separates us from him? You ever have a crush on a guy for no reason? You just thought he was awesome and dreamy? Well you are the bride of Christ sister!!! You are very precious to GOD and so am I. So I think he wouldn't mind if our lives were filled with him. His life is filled with us.\nMay GOD richly bless you.

I wanted to start by saying that I am a Christian.\n\nPeople who are non-Christians are not going to feel better after reading your post. This post comes across as the same pushiness that people don't like anyway. I understand that you believe very strongly, as do I, but please find a new way to share the love of God. This just seems pushy and it almost sounds like you think you are better than the "poor unsaved people."\n\nGod bless you though for trying!

I must tell you that it saddens me to hear that your experiences with Christianity have left you disenchanted with the whole thing. As a "christian" I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to you for any thing that anyone who calls themselves a christian has done to hurt or anger you.\n  I would like to say that i agree with one of the other posts in the fact that not everyone who calls themselves christian truly knows Jesus Christ.  You see "Christianity" has become just another religion where we humans try to reach God on our own terms.  That's where all the "bible thumping" comes from.  Jesus is Gods attempt to reach us humans through His love, unfortunately most Christians never fully experience His love and therefore can never love themselves.  They think that by being super zealous for the laws that God has set for us, and "taking a stand" for what they believe that they will some how please god more.  The bible teaches that we can do nothing to please God, outside of having a relationship with His son Jesus Christ.\n\nI would be honored to share with you how you can truly experience Gods love if you want.\n\n\np.s.  I didn't get the stamp of approval from my church or minister but that's OK cause I AM one of the ministers!:)\n\ncrazy that one of us guys would read something that challenged Christianity huh?  Hope i am up to the challenge

Yes, I firmly believe Jesus died and rose from the dead.  I believe also that this is why we celebrate Easter.  The bunny and egg thing just came around to entertain the kiddos.

Jesus saved me from all the bad stuff going on in the neighborhood. Some of my old friends are gone, on drugs or in jail. If Jesus had not come into my life I might be dead. I will always be thankful. Some of us have a lot to be thankful for. I pray every day, and it is a rare day I don't reat the Bible. I will never get over what He did to me-I am a changed man-and have been since March 25, 1990. Praise Jesus name.
