Quote God sent his Son to die for my sins and he saved me! Hi Richard!  Yes, if Jess can come down from Heaven, where He was with His Father, and die a cruel dead, and if we complain because we go through such little trials?  He has put us to shame…. You know Richard, I don't believe that  today's system is going to last to much longer, and Jesus will return and set things straight…..Just watch for the pit falls Satan puts in our ways, because he knows that he only has a little time left to deceive people…I am forever looking forward to Jesus return and no more trials, no confusion and no more false doctrine being taught…. Only the truth, ALONE will be taught by Jesus and His Saints … Peace and Love Irene

AMEN! I can't wait either but I first have to do God's will as we all do. I know since the start of the Egypt Protests this year God shook my very bones alive to wake me out of sleep and to know what is about to happen.

I've learned so much since then, I've come a long way in walking with Christ and what is going to come upon this world. Events around the world are going at a fast pace, the system is going to collapse the Anti-Christ will soon arise, the great falling away will happen.

Richard!Keep up the good work… God is Love and the love of God will see you through….When you are confronted with what God wants you to do or what men wants, you choose God… And that will bring you blessings…. In Spirit and in Truth we should worship God…. your Mother sounds so much like my Husbands Mother did……when She found out we left the Catholic Church She wanted to know why?  We said the Bible says that Mary had other Children and did not stay a Virgin, She said if that is what the Bible says then throw it in the garbage can….. lucky us, She lived in Germany, where both my Husband and I where born…so it did not effect us in any way with Her….. The Bible does teach us not to go by the tradition of men, and most Churches do…. this is what one Scripture says about that…. Mat 15:9   But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.   Peace and Love Irene

Thanks! I will always choose what God wants, it does put me in such a horrible position but I know if I disobey God then I'm only myself to blame at the end of the day. It's not that I want to disobey my parents and others but when it comes down to it, God created me, God sent his Son to die for my sins and he saved me!

How can I live in this world and love God at the same time? Jesus said “You cannot have two masters; you either love one and hate the other”

It's a choice that means life or death it does not mean you hate your friends or family when you disagree with their choices, traditions, and their way of doing things. God comes first but sometimes when you make a choice that in other people’s eyes seems wrong or crazy then they seem to Nash their teeth at you trying to pressure you not to do it.

It's all with Good intentions most of the time but in your heart God tells you why you must do what he tells you even if it means disobeying the people you love.

I think it's sad to see Christians so lukewarm trying to live in this world and serve God at the same time. Many, and I mean MANY of God's people today are in a lot of trouble and they all have no idea! So sad

Richard,Good for you, but  I feel for you…But we should always do the right thing, and you do….. not many want to do so, even so they know better…..The whole Christmas scene is more important to some, then the truth……. When we first left the Catholic Church over the trinity, our so called friends were not friends any longer…. Then our Children thought we lost our minds..when we stopped celebrating Christmas and Easter…..The fact is that Jesus was born at the end of September early October…. The exact date is not known…..Jesus did not say to celebrate His Birthday….. Best wishes and peace and Love Irene

Thank you Irene

I know sometimes we have to do what Jesus calls us to do and that means breaking normal human traditions and old ways if we TRULY want to follow Christ. Some don't like it and call you crazy, sad, boring etc or even worse in your case refuse to be friends.

Sometimes my mom gives me a choice I follow what God tells me to do or I listen to my mom, family, friends or others. You see It's either I follow the World and its traditions or I follow Christ, his way, his teachings and his word. I follow Christ and turn my back on the world because I do not belong to the world just as Jesus does not belong to the world.

There came a moment where my mom shouted at me over the phone almost threatening me in a way to fill out the UK Census forms where in my heart the Holy Spirit stirred me up in such a way I almost felt sick. I had no doubt in my mind that to fill this in, the world is my ruler and I do what they say.

Putting down my personal information, where I work how many hours I work, what time I start work, how much I earn, how you travel to work, what faith are you etc. This was a big NO NO from God that he shook my entire body as to say do not fill that in.

My mom started to burst out in anger “Fill that form in! If you don't they will fine you thousands of pounds! They will throw you in Jail, they will take away your home you are breaking the law you better do it!”

I just was so sad and hurt because this wasn't my mom talking, I looked at that form one last time and I tore it up and threw it in the bin. When I told her, she said

“I don't want to talk anymore if they come for you and put you in jail and fine you don't ask me to help!”

It's such a horrible feeling to have to experience that but I love God with all my heart and in some cases or most, I have to do his will and listen to him even if my own family cut me off (I know they won't) but that's how it feels. It's their way or God's way. I choose God's way!

There are other reasons behind those census forms which also made me decide not to fill them in not just becuase God warned me not too. This is the kind of position my mom puts me in regarding to me refusing to do Christmas and other things. So I'm sure you can understand how difficult it is when we loose our friends, familes etc becuase we choose to follow God's word, not the words and traditions of man.

So here is the latest…

My sister who leads the School Choir did a poll at my old Local Parish Church in London about the meaning of Christmas. Almost every one said it was getting presents and one girl put down Santa Claus was born on 25th December. She was absolute ashamed and shocked at the responses that she wanted to do something about this because this wasn’t right at all.

So she spoke to the School and to Helen Yousaf who used to lead the Choir before she had to hand over the lead to my sister. This is Helen’s site http://www.helenyousaf.co.uk/index.html Helen, my sister and others went to the council to ask if they could borrow one of the front shops in the Cinema complex which have bowling alleys, restaurants and a food store.  

Many shops in town were closed and went out of business so they wanted to use one of the shop floors to have a nativity scene focusing ONLY on the birth of Jesus Christ. They wanted to biblically re-create the scene and explain why Jesus Christ came into the world. There will be no Christmas Trees or anything associated with what Christmas is displayed today as we know it.

When they came to the town council about their idea they all rejected it until they published their idea in an article in their local newspaper. It grabbed attention from others who insisted to put the idea forward. Eventually by God’s good grace it finally had the go ahead!!

Everyone in town wanted to help in and get this event started in time for the two weeks leading up to Christmas. Even the other business around town offered to lend them anything they had to create the nativity scene. They will hold this event, music etc for two weeks and my sister said to me;

“You could stand by the door welcoming people in and give them the true message of Jesus’ birth and why he came into the world. This is God’s calling to you to help lead people into the light so they can learn about this man Jesus!” So I offered to help when I come down over Christmas time.

My pastor Anne is going to publish a Holy Spirit inspired Prayer book on 3rd December. This prayer book was not written in her own words but she was lead and inspired by the Holy Spirit to write these prayers! She asked me and my family to come down for the launch and she asked me to give my testimony to the people that come to the launch.

Although I said, that I won’t have time to go through everything I printed off ALL of my testimonies and dreams that has happened to me so far this year in a binder to give to the people to take home. I have over 30 copies of my testimonies to give out for people to take home and read more about how Jesus has changed my life.

I will of course film both events and publish them on YouTube for all to see! As you can see God has given me another calling, to go out as a Light in the World to share the gospel of Jesus and that he has come to save mankind of their sins. I’m so glad and looking forward to this as I was urgently asking God to give me more missionary work to do.  But as God has taught me, it’s not by works you are saved but by faith! But God has given me the work he needs me to do even though it took a while I’m glad and Blessed he has chosen me to do this.

God Bless

I think God has told me not directly but in another way of the truth about the Holidays. Basically I refuse to do Christmas anymore. No trees, no church service, no decorations nothing!

Even Easter, I refuse to celebrate that. I came out of my Church over Easter this year back in London, and the minster gave me an egg I should of refused to take it because this is just an insult to Jesus Christ who died for our sins and you give me an Easter egg?? What to celebrate a birth of a Chick?!

I just can't do that anymore. My mom gets angry and flips out because she says how can you call yourself a Christian and not go to Church and celebrate Jesus’ birth? I just do a face palm.  

She also says I’m a miserable old thing who just doesn’t want to do anything but I know that’s a lie! I said I won't take any part in these pagan, earth man holidays, wasting money on presents and cards and trees and she says I'm wrong!

My sister said the Church did a poll to ask children what Christmas was about and all of them said it was getting presents and one girl said Santa was born on 25th    WHAT?!

The event my sister and the Church are doing is a huge project where it focuses on Jesus and why he came to the world no trees, no Santa Claus nothing like that. It's the whole nativity scene which I think it's great because our old town needs it! Actually the whole of the UK too!

I can't stand when people at work and around me talking about being excited for Christmas and getting presents when it has nothing to do with that. Just hold my head down thinking what has happend to the world? Where is Jesus' message gone? Replaced with utter garbbage of Money Making Holidays where people want to toys, gadgets and stuff like that.

Hi Richard. The feeling i got from you, is, the dream of the earthquake was to show you that the spirit of God (Holy Spirit) lives in you, you ARE the temple. (Just the thougt i got, dont know if you can connect it to it). The encounter you had with the muslim: stirred up an emotion wit you. Maybe …. you will go on, and help others, somehow, in a muslim country?? Maybe a missionary or something? We dont know what is to come, but God is raising up people to do his work in the future, even now. The important thing is to stay away from sin. Dont be distracted by the traps Satan may put in your path, keep going. Otherwise you will go off track and it will take a while to get bak. You write an excellent testimony. You are blessed in your ability to write, and, honestly, i dont usually have the patience to read lng posts but yours was good! Bless you, all the best Richard. Let us know how you get on.

Yes you are right the body is the temple of God, as the Holy Spirit resides in you.

Quote

The encounter you had with the Muslim: stirred up an emotion with you. Maybe…. you will go on, and help others, somehow, in a Muslim country??

Maybe but I think Jesus wanted me to come to his aid to show that as a Christian, a follow of Christ, he loves everyone even Muslims!

He wanted to show that love using me and even though I must have received lots of negative comments I had to carry the cross and come to his defence and show my support from those people who were attacking him.

I had a Muslim contact me on another forum thanking me personally for what I did and that it gave him hope in people really caring about other faiths or religions

Don't worry since I was saved I've been living in repetance, I have not gone one night without repenting of my sins. My flesh will die or has died in it's sins but my spirit has overcome death.

Jesus has overcome death and has also saved me from judgement. Sin = death but my sins have been nailed to the cross so my spirit will pass through judgement and live!

It is the Holy Spirit that has given me the ability to write! I'm not that good at writing or “was” my english is pretty bad lol

Thank you and God Bless you too

[MasterRich]

Thanks! Well Lightenup, I can't pursue her, she has my email and my link to the YouTube page but I have no other way to contact her. As my pastor had said to me, she has a boyfriend and who knows by God bringing you together, you were able to share your faith together and with her she couldn't because her boyfriend wasn't a Christian.

She told me that maybe she will leave him and contact you  I have to wait, God knows I am patient with him and I 100% trust God to handle and take care of things.

Hi Pastry and thanks I've been on Heavennet for some time, I did post my vision of hell testimony last year but when I came back it got deleted not sure why. So I decided to post it again, and then so much else has been happening with me I've been trying to take notes and write everything down. So that's what has been going on this year so far!

I've never experienced love yet and the only one I can love and trust is God, I've never really looked at it since now that God is the only one I trust and can only trust. So these trials are likely God putting me on a path to prepare me. Maybe it will have a happy ending and only God knows that.

Either way I'm happy with this life God has given me whether I stay single and Keep God in my heart always or if God prepares for me a Christian girl. I let him decide ^_^

Oh yes I have another two stories to tell, I will post them later today once I write them out! I'm actually excited because God told me to be patient as I wanted to share my testimony to more people and so far as much as I've done no other opportunities have come my way.

But that's because God is preparing the next part in using me to share my testimony, but also he has plans for my sister too to do something never before seen in our home town back in London!

“Discover the real meaning of Christmas” It’s such a big project but everyone is going to help out and she said God wants to use you to stand by the door welcome people in and talk about Jesus and Christianity!

Even if people and youngsters come in to see what’s going on, never knowing or believing in God, you are the light who shines and will spread the good message of Jesus Christ and why he came into the world!

I won’t mention anymore I will post about it later

[MasterRich]

I have put a link to my testimony video from YouTube if anyone would like to watch it on YouTube, save it or share it around Thank you and God Bless You! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRsW3j31H_I

[MasterRich]

Praise God! Thank you for sharing, truly blessed to be able to feel God's love!

Thanks t8 for clearing this up, God knows the heart of men and woman and if they truly love and seek God with all their heart he will save them but to use them to fulfil God's purpose. My pastor spoke to me last night when she invited me over and said;

“God knew that you were seeking God even after all the things you went through and he has chosen you to do God's work and be a light in your work place, to be a light in your family and to reach out to people to tell them of your story and to pray. He has given you a helper the Spirit of Truth and in your prayers and in the words that you have written to other Christians. The words that come out of your mouth, the words you have written is not from you, not man written but from the Holy Spirit! Can’t you see the Holy Spirit is in you!? Can’t you see his working with you?!”

Our duty is to bare good fruit! To know and learn more about Jesus Christ to be just like him in every way. That is our job and that is what we are called to do, which is what my pastor told me to do and said you are doing this.

Hi Richard:) Sorry to hear of your bullying. Bullying is something Iv always hated seeing, and some of my best friends I made were the victims of bullying. But you got through it! And your all grown up now. Praise God! And God knows all you went through. I was also a victim of bullying at school. The reason is because I sided with another victim of bullying, so they turned on me.   And I know what it's like for family (parents) to fight. It makes us withdraw even more. It did for me. And I also went through a stage where my parents abandoned me and went overseas to live. I was only 16. I had no other family. They came back though, eventually. They are ok now. And we love each other so much, things have really changed. And stealing… I used to shoplift as a teenager… it's something i would never do now, haven't in something like 20 years. Even though at times we were poor and hungry. I dont have much time now to address the rest of your post but I will very soon. I'll just quickly say that God is not a bully, God is love. And there is no fear in love. I will share my vision with you maybe later. Thank-you for sharing Richard.

Hi shimmer,

Thank you for your words of encouragement. Yes the bullying was terrible; it lasted 8 years nonstop. But yes I got through it with the Help of God. I’m sorry to hear you too suffered from bullying but well done for standing with the person that was being bullied. Not many would do that; they would just look on and walk on as if they didn’t see anything or not to get involved.

Sorry about the problems you also had to go through with your family. I can’t imagine how that must of been like to have your parents abandoned you and then went overseas at just 16 But I’m glad they came back and things are better!

Looking forward to reading about your vision and thank you for sharing some of your past life’s troubles and how you overcame them with the help of God

God Bless!

[MasterRich]

Really! Do you think that anyone would not repent and be saved if they saw what you saw?

no I'm doubt anyone who, if they saw what I saw would not repent. But not everyone is shown Hell by God so that you will repent of your sins. God knows exactly how the person next to you will be saved and if it's not by showing him/her Hell then it would be in another way like, God coming to them in a dream or Jesus in most cases from what I've read.

Read Greg's father's aunt's testimony here, she didn't have any dream or vision at all to accept Jesus Christ.

http://changinglives.au.com/item-by….od.html

If God meant for certain people to see Hell not only to tell others of what they saw but so that it would bring to the Jesus then that's the way God will do it. For me that was the case, for someone else it may not be.

[MasterRich]

@ Lightenup, Thank you Nooo it didn't take a lot of guts not really! I think it took more guts to speak openly in front of people twice but that is what Jesus does for you. All fear is gone because I would of run a mile if anyone asked me to stand up to give a speech or to talk in front of lots of people!

God Bless

@WorshippingJesus

I know what you mean but you must remember, God loves ALL OF US. He has a plan to save those who WILL turn to Jesus Christ and even those who won't at the end. He tries and gives them many chances hoping they will. It's God's plan to bring people to him and to accept Jesus Christ into their lives so they may be forgiven for their sins and give their lives to God.

As I said in my testimony video, that I saw so many of people telling their stories about them seeing Hell or how they went to Heaven and how God saved them. God will save them in other ways, for example I had someone read my testimony on another site and he said

“By reading your testimony you have filled me with courage to face this life with Christ as my ROCK!!”

In whatever way God will save them, it took me 28 years before I was ready to give my life to Jesus. There is no other way around it. I had to go through those experiences to get to this point I am at now. Everyone is different and God will act accordingly to his plan and timing to save them.

God Bless
