I will try to keep this brief, but I wanted to post my testimony. This is in hope that someone will read it, see themselves and make a change.
Five years ago I was a wretch. I hated the world, and everyone in it. I was a con-man, an adulterer, a thief, a liar and worse. I slept with woman for money and coned them out of their money. I was a porn addict and I had gotten a married woman pregnant. The baby died of SIDS when she was but 5 months. I never even got to see her.
I lied for the fun of it, and when i had girlfriends I used them for everything I could and purposely tried to hurt them as bad as I could (emotionally). I even dated a woman and her daughter at the same time cause I knew when it came out it would ruin their family. Like I said, i was a horrible, evil wretch.
So what changed? One night after one of my "jobs" Jesus came to me. I didn't see Him, but He called to my heart. He told me of His love for me and let me know I could be more. I gave Him my heart and my soul.

I know many will say my story sounds unreal, but I am not trying to decieve anyone. I am not trying to preach either. i just want to show the change God has made in me. God will lead the ppl who need to read my testimony to it. And if you scoff at it, I will only embrace you more. I love you.

Thank you for sharing that testimony. I hope you are the real deal because Jesus can do all of what you said. He changed my life too. It's really not necessary to go into that much detail to testify of how much Jesus changed you though, but I'm thankful for what He has done for you. If only people knew how He can restore our wretchedness into peace and joy, they would run to Him. I pray you will continue to walk with Him and glorify Him in all you do. God bless you for sharing with all of us.

You know,at times I can be a terrible snob about fundamentalists,and I mean as a Christian,often regarding them as poor cousins or a fairly embarrassing wing of the family. Then I read such testimonials and I have to say,they do an honestly good job in helping people learn to look to Christ for help and purpose - and a reason to change. My prayers are with you.

Your testimony brought tears to my eyes ,I am so happy that you have jesus in your heart and you truly have to know that he forgives youfor all the wrong you have done .now your job is going to be doing what he has called you to do and sometimes that can be diffucult but listen to your heart and follow it because it will never mislead you. there is a reason that the winshield in your car is so huge and the rearview mirrior is so small it only matters what is ahead and not what is behind you . thank you for sharing your story and god bless you.

Well .. it is something you know by the name of Jesus .. or others might have called by some other name... Remember .. God always comes when we surrender .. unconditionally .. and completely with all Will we have .. and He has the Power .. and Our Will and Hos Power .. is the result of what you have experienced.. of course you did not .. sorry if i am wrong .. but it looks like .. you did not have courage or confidence directly with GOD the Almighty.. he you held finger of someone you believed could help you out ... but with Honest Willingness .. .. and it was Jesus you called or named it .. and Jesus having faith in God .. could help you out because you had Honest Willingness, without that no one could have done so .. .. It is this 'HIGHER POWER THAN OURSELVES... ' which does it .. we give them names as we wish .. but ultimately it is HE .. and all of us know.. WHEN ME AND MY GOD, both of us, JOIN HANDS WE CAN DO EACH AND EVERYTHING SUCCESSFULLY ..

Finding the true gods changed me from an unhappy person to a mostly happy person, but I was never a wretch.
In my religion, it's not Jesus someone like you would owe your heart and soul to...it's the people you've wronged.
What have you done to make up with the PEOPLE you hurt? Jesus was not the one you knocked up, was he?

YES.
May God fill your heart with what you need best and: let's pray for all those that didn't "meet" HIM yet!
"Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner."
It will be wonderful for us all to give HIM the heart and soul theat HE let/put it there in us!!!
"Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on us, sinners."
