As a boy growing up my mother taught me a fairly good ethical life. My father worked day and night. They took us to many denominational churches through our life. 4 brothers. The other 3 were behavior problems when not at home. My life was better at a young age then went way down hill.
When Jesus saved me Christian meant following Jesus teachings. I was different from other Christians as I wanted to follow the bible rather than the join the club attitude most had.
it was a major change when I started sharing Jesus. There was this peaceful presence, esp. when telling about Jesus. while reading scripture the words spoke out to me like God was talking to me. then there was a pattern of reading words about Holy Spirit. That led me to the Baptism of the Spirit and tongues.
now God would live through me and not have to act on scriptures from my own thinking. Then I began to meet Jesus and also have him help me change from past things ,some difficult. He has been my teacher though I have been to many churches. I learned to look at others faults like Jesus does. When they wronged me I would just forgive and pray for them--like the book says.
faith-- forsake all I trust him. Baal-- believe apostacy all lost. bible-- believe in bible life eternal.
