    Smile My testimony: Thank You Jesus for saving me

    Fellow Brothers & Sisters

    First I thank my Lord and Saviour Christ Jesus and everyone here at Rapture Forums. In these latter days and age of "doom & gloom." God has granted me a miracle. Jesus has answered prayers in such a way, that there is no doubt in my mind it is Gods Holy Spirit who has given me a miracle. A Baptist Church to worship my Lord in.


    Here is how it happened. I went to see my neurologist and on the way out of the hospitals medical arts building. I needed to rearrange papers and medications I was carry. Before the exit there is a slim desk the person who meets, greets and assists patients at the entrance way into/out of the hospital. The station happened to be empty.


    On the desk was a tract from the Grace Independent Baptist Church. I read the tract and could understand this Church is Pre-Tribulation, strictly an Bible teaching Ministry. The Pastors core values he preaches are the same as what we believe on this community. If any teaching does not line up Biblically with the Holy Word of God it will not be taught. Praise be to God

    The miracle to me is, is the Church is maybe 10-15 miles away from where I live!!! I can hardly believe such good fortune especially today. I called the phone number to get in contact with the Pastor. The first call I fumbled a little bit. So I called again a day or so later after not receiving any reply.

    I figured he saw it was a local telephone number and perhaps chalked it up to a crank call. Turned out He was out of town. I have attended one Bible study class so far on 3/11/09 and on the 29th of this month I will be Baptised.

    I am so excited I have to share the good news with everyone. This is exactly what was missing in my life until now. The fellowship is wonderful. I feel at welcomed and at home where I belong.

    There is only one thing I feel bad about and that is, the need to ask for a ride, both to and from Church because i can't drive a motor vehicle due to epilepsy. It does not feel right imposing on someone like that. Other than the ride issue. I feel so much better after praying with the Pastor to be saved and confessing Jesus is my Lord and Saviour with both my heart and mouth. Thank you Jesus for saving me.

    I have no plans to leave this community, you are all valuable friends to me. I'll still continue to pray for those of us asking for prayers and Gods help---though I don't post it so.

    I am so excited. I apoligize if i'm all over the place with this post.
    I'm sorry this may appear jumbled. When one really hears the voice of the Lord calling you, for the first time in ones life its so wonderful nothing else matters ....Thank You Jesus 2:

    God Bless :)

    Praise the Lord! Thank you for sharing this with us Searchin!

    For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16

    Then he asked: "sirs, what must I do to be saved"?. They told him: "believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shall be saved, and thy household".

    Act 16:30,31

    Jesus saved me.

    Jesus is my shepherd!

    :iagree. Jesus is all I will ever need. Praise God. It's so wonderful to know and feel saved. When I prayed with the Pastor and gave myself to, trust only and recieved Jesus Christ as my Lord & Saviour. I know im saved, because now there is peace, calm and a joy of true inner happiness in my heart that was missing most of my life. I can't explain how it feels. There is no 4th of July fireworks going off or anything of that sort, just that a burdeon was lifted, i can't explain. Thank You Jesus, thanks Pastor and thanks friends.

    It would be so wonderful if we all could attend service together in this Church. In the Dear Friends greeting section of the churches pamphlet it reads Grace Independent Baptist Church is unashamedly an old fashioned Bible believing and Bible preaching church!!!! Praise the Lord! Glory to God!!!

    The Pastor is a King James Bible only Man of God.

    I told the Pastor about Rapture Forums. Maybe we will hear from him sometime if he has time to spare, drop in and say hello to this great community, which helped me discern the errors of Catholism. While giving me new found faith to understand the Truth of Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour. Thanks go out to everyone here, ulitmately all thanks and praise go to Jesus Christ. Praise be to God, in Jesus' Name. Amen


    God Bless

    Praise God for your salvation Searchin! And, don't feel bad regarding requesting a ride from people in your congregation. It is a blessing to them, as well as you, for these rides!

    We also agree and pray for your healing form epilepsy from our Savior, Jesus Christ! By His stripes was ARE healed, past tense, done, and sealed by the blood of our wonderful savior, Jesus Christ! WHY??? Well, because he, Jesus, LOVES YOU!!

    Praise God for everyones kind words and prayers May God bless everyone as I'll remember to keep the members of this great community in my prayers.

    Here is the website for the church in which I was saved by the Grace of God and the Precious Holy Blood shed By Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. In Jesus Name. Amen

    www.graceindependentbaptist.net


    I owe many thanks to this community. If it was not for Rapture Forums I would not have come to an urgent realization of how lost a sinner I was(still dealing with sin), and in dire need of Salvation to be saved by Shed Blood of Jesus Christ.


    I recieved Jesus Christ as my Saviour on 3/11/2009
    at Grace Independent Baptist Church. I have made a public confession to my Pastor and Church.

    I confess with my mouth and believe in my heart. Jesus Christ is my Lord And Saviour, to this community as a witness for the entire world wide web to hear and read.

    Heavenly Father in Jesus' Name I pray. Amen

    Thank you for your prays and kind words Mike D and Everyone. Praise God!


    God Bless

    Searchin, may God bless you. I also was saved at an Independent Baptist Church. So glad to hear that you learned something from this forum - that's why we're here - we love the Lord, and try to serve Him as best we can. Thru the internet, the world is watching. We want to spread the Word. You are the first that I've heard of who directly related us as being part of their coming to know the Lord. It was the Holy Spirit who drew you to Him, convicted you - we just played a small part in "planting a seed" - you took it to heart, and the Holy Spirit brought it to fruition. Bless Him!!!!! Jesus is what it's all about. Again, may the Lord bless you, always

    Such wonderful news! God bless you as you embark on your journey in Christ. :)

    Return, O Lord! How long? And have compassion on Your servants.
    Oh, satisfy us early with Your mercy, That we may rejoice and be glad all our days!

    Praise God, Brother! Heavenly Holy Father Many others will "discover" this forum and come to the saving faith by the Precious Holy Blood shed by the only Begotten Son of the True & Living God, our Lord Jesus Christ! That lost souls may ask You Lord, for You to lead them to a Bible believing, preaching & teaching Church.

    Lord Your Will is done. I know Your Will, will be done, because we have Your Word on it. Your harvest is made full in these latter days. Lord praying You will use the internet for good and shut down evil sites that speak against You.

    Father, Your Holy Gospel is made know to all.

    And to all having internet access. May Your Holy Spirit lead them to this Forum and other forums which Preach the Gospel of Christ Jesus.

    Friends: I am so excited to be saved and I thank God for answering my prayers. God "gave" me a church in which to worhip my Saviour Jesus Christ in.

    Dear Father in Jesus' Name i pray. Amen

    God Bless
