"Down among the
Dead Men"....
testimony of Brother Greg Gabriel |
|
|
I am 38 years old and I live in Handumanan,
Bacolod City in the Philippines.
I am Filipino by nationality and I used to 'Worship
the Dead and their Bones', (Amahang Bakal) or
'The Father of Stone' thinking I may find something
there for me but there was nothing there, just dead
men's bones...........ref/Acts 17:29, 30.
I was raised as a 'Roman Catholic' but I never
really could accept what they proclaimed because I was
always the same old sinner with no morals at all. Even
in my ignorance I knew in my heart their teaching was a
lie. Therefore I looked to the 'Amahang Bakal'
for help. This only pushed me further into darkness. One
of my fellow workers, a pastor, told me that what I was
doing was wrong so I decided to read the bible and I was
convicted..........ref/2 John 9-11.
So I asked Jesus to forgive me of my idolatry and sin
and went to a bible study group for a while, at least
until I met Pastor Paul Sheehan of Jesus the Christ
Ministries-Mission, Holy ghost led me to this man to
receive the meat of the 'Word of God' and the baptism of
holy ghost. I have fellowshipped with this mission now
for around eight months, first meeting Pastor Paul in
December 2009 in a house meet in Handumanan.....ref/John
16:14...........click.
Because of this man of God I have come to know the
truth, the true story of the 'Cross of the
Christ' and I now understand the 'Word of God'.
Since I have come to JTCM-Mission my worries and fears
of the future have departed from me and 'Jesus the
Christ' is my first and last, preeminent in my life.
Others testify the same thing........Salvation and
Eternal riches for all, on the Christ's
terms.......ref/Colossians 1:18, 1 Timothy 4:16, Romans
11:22...........click.
My mind was once occupied with things 'down among the
dead men' but now my mind is on things above, where
Jesus the Christ is seated at Father's right hand. If we
humble ourselves before God, he will lift us up, out of
the grave of sin..........ref/Colossians 3:1, 2. |
"LET'S ALL GIVE THANKS WITH A
GRATEFUL HEART" |
I give thanks to my 'God - Jesus the Christ',
the pastor who told me it was wrong to worship the dead,
Pastor Sheehan and his wife and all the brethren at
'Jesus the Christ Ministries - Mission' ........Date/12th
September 2010...................click. |
