My Introductory Post
Personal Testimony
It was during my High School Days (third year) that I joined a Bible Study Group in our school. It was being held once in a week during our vacant period.
A classmate of mine invited me to join. She is also the one who told me about how to get saved. I remember she used the bridge gap Illustration in telling me about my condition before God . That I am a sinner , separated from God because of my sins. She showed me from the Bible the verses , as she continue to tell me things about the revealed truths about being sinful, its consequences and about God 's love towards a sinful human like me. She told me about Jesus Christ the God sent one who is the Saviour . She told me about what Christ has done. How Christ took my sins on His own body and paid it's penalty by His death on the cross of Calvary to save me from eternal damnation in hell for all eternity. She told me that I need to acknowledge that I am a sinner and confessed my sins to God and asked God for forgiveness. And I need to believe and accept Christ as my Saviour. Claiming by faith that Christ did what was done on the cross of Calvary for me , for my salvation. She helped me pray to God then at that time the sinner's prayer of acceptance of the Saviour Jesus Christ.
When the next school year came, the classmate friend who won me to Christ through personal evangelism, was not my classmate anymore in my fourth year. We were assigned to different class section. Nevertheless we still meet in the Bible Study we joined previously.
In my fourth my year class I had a classmate who also joined in the Bible Study and she invited me to a Baptist Church where she is attending every Sunday. I got interested because I want to learn more about many things concerning the faith in Jesus Christ.
And I was not disappointed. I got what I wanted. I was fed by the word of God, the Bible, sumptuously. My faith and knowledge of the Lord Jesus grew and strenghthened.
By the grace of God , I am continuing in my faith in the Lord Jesus Christ from then on to the present.
And I will be sharing that kind of faith and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ in this community as the Lord leads me.
Thanks for this community for the opportunity that I could have. And I just hope that this community would grow , that many believers could share each other's experiences of how God worked in their respective spiritual journey in life.
In Christ
