My family have been Christians my whole life. I am borderline since all of the trials that I have been through. I remain faithful since I know he is there. I do not completely live the life and do not go to church. It seems that every church I go to it is more about them than about worshiping God. It seems that we are in the age where it is all about politics and who ya know than about the level of your faith. I believe in God, and will always hold him at the top of my heart. The only church I have been to where it was about God is to far for me to drive to with the gas prices to high. So I am hoping to meet some good Christian friends here..

I thank God that i have been raised in a loving christian home. I accepted Christ as my savior when i was 4 years old, most of my elementry school years and the first part of middle school though i was really just living like a "good" church kid not really fully seeking God. Many times my parents had asked me if i wanted to be baptized and for some reason i always made up some excuse about why i didnt want to, then towards towards the end of middle school God tugged on my heart and told me that he wanted me to be baptized. I don't know why but at first i kinda tried to fight of what he was telling me to do. And then i really felt God asking me if i truly wanted to live for him. I think at this point i really started to understand what i must do to live for Christ, not just live and be "good" but to actually develop a personal relationship with him. After being baptized this is exactly what i started to do. Throughout highschool i have had times where i started to slack off in my relationship with him, and at those times my life became more difficult and frustrating. I now strive everyday to follow Christ in everything I do. I am by no means perfect but Jesus is helping me along the way. The past two years God has allowed me to go on two missions trips down to mexico to work in a soup kitchen serving poverty striken children and teaching them about God though both a VBS type thing and also though our different types of service that my teams did down there. During these trips not only did i get to share Gods word with others but God also taught me and my friends many things thoughout the trip, on of these things is about how trusting in God for everything is so vital in our lives.

The Lord saved me about 3 or 4 years ago. I have seen his hand in my life from the very beginning. When I can into to this world as a new born I had a seizer in my mothers arms stayed in the hospital my first days in this world. During my child hood I have several accidents that I walked away from without serious injuries. I been hit by a car on a bike, ran into a car on motorbike. Trying to sell drugs, a guy tried to shoot me but the gun jammed. I was an alcoholic and weed head, driving home late at night in the country roads of Georgia. I feel asleep at the wheel in the curve and I heard a voice in my ear say wake up. I woke up and took control of the car while it was still in the curve. While I was hanging in the streets, my wife was still looking for a church home. I felt that all preachers were about the money and sleeping with the women in the church. We had just left a church that confirmed how I felt, because they wanted us to co-sign for a car for the pastor. During that time I was going through some health problems and had to stop drinking, but I keep smoking. My wife started a new job, and meet another lady who invited us to church. She got me to go, and the first time I went the Pastor said some words that help me. One when offering time came he said we don't want your money if you can't give it in faith. Which he no longer says this anymore, so this was just for me that day. He also spoke about other issues that related to me. I felt like he was preaching to me that day. Then he talked about Jesus and who he was and what he did. I started reading and learning about the Lord. He started manifesting himself to me in different ways. I then confessed him as my Lord and savior. After that I started seeing the changes in my life.

Let me say first that I love the lord and that I found Jesus many years ago and he has been a large part of my life and who I am...... My Dad, younger brother and myself were all in law enforcement, then in 1995 a man that my brother had put in jail and made a case on came to his home one night and as he opened the door shot and killed him..... The reason I told you this is to tell you that no way could I have lived on after that if it was not for my love of the lord, his great love for me and knowing that my brother was with him and in a much better place..... than we all are....
So with this very small statememt let me say once again that I love the lord and I pray that he will watch over any and all that reads this... Amen |

Hello all! I have been a Christian for most of my life and am 100% sold out for Jesus. A prayer I prayed many years ago was that God would use His refining fire to clean the garbage out of my life. That no matter what it took, I wanted Him to make me a warrior on the front line for Him. He is being faithful to that prayer. Though I have been through some very difficult times since that prayer, God has been there with me through my entire journey. It is exciting to live for Christ. The world can not and did not ever fulfill the longings in my heart. Living for Christ is totally satisfying and rewarding. It is by far the greatest adventure I have ever lived.

At the Age of 12 I got saved. Then a few months after I got saved I got my calling to become a Missionary. I didn't know what type of missionary but a missionary. Then a few months after that I began to run from God which was the biggest mistake of my life. I ran hard for 5 years. I watch movies that had women taking all there clothes off. Watching movies that were people got blown up, heads chopped off, and any other types of things I wanted to see. Also, I had young women ask me if I wanted to sleep with them (thanks God I never did.) I had thought of killing myself. Until I ran to the very last day of 2004. GOD woke me up on Jan. 01, 2005 saying to me "Jonathan! Jonathan! IF YOU DON'T STRAIGHTEN UP YOU ARE GOING TO HELL!!!" That scared me so bad, that I began to pray right there and that moment to ask Jesus to forgive me. Snice then I've been bastized in a creek. I've got my liscene as a Revended. I've done a total 180 from the day's of my high school. Guys God is so amazing that if you will just let HIM work throught you God will use you so GREATLY!

I was saved in the year 2004 at the Bill Rice Ranch after a message I heard on Hell.
The the past year I felt the calling of God into the ministry of preaching and I've been blessed while studying for that ministry. |

I don't have any huge testimony, happily I since I can remember I have always been a Christian. My parents and actually whole family are strong Christians. I wish I had more of one, but, I am happy to have never been without Him.

I was saved about 2006 years ago when Jesus died on the cross.

When I was 11 years old there was a huge revival at my church. I just prayed through and the Holy Ghost shot through me. Later the following Sunday, I was baptized in the water in Jesus's name. :D

IF ANYONE WANTS TO DISCUSS WORLDVIEW OR RELIGION OR TELL ME THAT I'M A CRAZY LUNATIC, JUST INSTANT MESSAGE ME. I DON'T GET ANGRY, I WANNA HEAR WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY.
I grew up in the church but was pretty lukewarm about my faith most of my life. But then, I sorta woke up. We all have something missing. Don't tell me you've never wondered why you're here, what you have to do to find HAPPINESS. yes, that elusive little word that we all try to find, often in the wrong places, like girlfriends/boyfriends, possessions, popularity, sports, and lotsa other junk. But anyway, I tend to ramble, and the point is, that hole in your heart, that soul, can seem like its filled, but in reality it's in the shape of your Savior, and only He can fill it. Seriously, people, its really easy to get caught up in today's world, and im not saying you can't have fun, but just be mindful that He's watching ya. And just remember the simple things, because they're often the most important. Okay I'm done. for now muwhahahaha |

I am not sure exactly when I accepted Christ into my life. But it was during my first year of stay in Canada. Around the time I joined the halo division of B4W. I didn't really get the part about being born again till I started seeing changes in my life. I just couldn't consciously do bad stuff anymore... maybe because they are bad o0. Christ changed me, inside out. And I think the changes were for the better. There was also this inner joy, the joy that would remain in both good times and bad. May be it stemmed from the fact that my eternity is secured. But I also believe that the Holy Spirit is with me in my walk, and supports and guides me in this adventure before I step into the next. I've been a Christian for about 2-3 years now. About spiritual growth, I did attend programs at church. But I think I went all out for God when I got involved with Campus Crusade for Christ (now Campus 4 Christ), a non denominational international organization which had a club on my University campus. Since then, there's been a lot of change and fuel in my life to serve God and always keep him at the center of it all. I quit B4W mainly because it was consuming too much of my time, and it was stopping me from growing spiritually. That and while I tried to enforce strict rules in B4W, we did use ringers at times, among other bad things. So there was also some conviction from God. I also couldn't stick with the name anymore - Born 4 War - if anything, I could only be Born 4 the LORD. After I found some balance in life, and had time for gaming, I tried to find a team again. I found a lot of teams that were immature - I just couldn't play with them. Even my twl draft team falls under this category (Sorry Guys, but its true). They would swear when they get frustrated at just about anything. Some would also misuse God's name at times. I tried to tolerate it, but it always hurt me on the inside. It was like trying to tolerate a piece of wood that got into your hand. What I was looking for was "normal", but such a team was hard to find. I did join ~CiA~ for a few months. That would still have been my home team, if not for a burning vision to start a Christ-Centered Gaming Team that followed Christian principles and values, which I believe are rock solid. Enter JL. |
