Living Christianity Anew

It’s a real joy listening to your daily, half-hour preaching on cable television. I just want to say that I have been a Christian for 30 years ever since I was 15 and have gone through the Charismatic and Faith movements.

While I knew that God is a good God who loves me, I couldn’t help but think that He was angry with me whenever I fell into sin, and that He was ready to judge and kill me. One time, for some reason, I partook of the Holy Communion, but just the bread and not the wine. After that, my car got broken into and I got caught for not putting on the safety belt. I thought that I had committed the unpardonable sin and I was heaven’s wanted man! I was really miserable.

Subsequently, I fell away from Christianity deeming it as an impossible religion. I thought that if I continued to follow Jesus’ teaching, I would be maimed, miserable and sooner or later in poverty. I even thought that I had to give away my last dollar to gain the favor of God.

Now, I know how wrong I was. I must confess that I was skeptical of the grace message for a long time because of past teachings. I worked out my salvation with trembling but ended up hurt and angry with God. I did almost everything the church would dish out without knowing Him personally. I fell away for years and did not want to know anything about Christianity. But I discovered that Jesus will always find His lost sheep.

One day, my good friend in Perth passed me a book by Joseph Prince called Unmerited Favor. He insisted that I read the book. When I finally read the book, it was like reading a bestseller. I couldn’t put it down. For the first time, I felt loved—loved by God and Jesus. Today, I feel that I am living Christianity anew. It’s the early stages but I feel the change and know the power of grace over sin. Praise be to Jesus Christ! God is a good God and a loving Father. That speaks to me of His grace, the grace of a Father.

I thank God for you, your ministry and your church.
