#Testimony1

(i took a time last night in retrospect and in remembrance...i deemed it necessary to share some 'throwback'...a word of "testimony" on many many things in time past which my life had come to bare..........**and many here, i suppose, may concur....*)

A certain night in OWERRI SouthEast Nigeria, a 'group picture which I was init' (a photo I took sometime with some 4 to 5 other fellas...)' was LAID down at a certain table surrounded by some blood thirsty "Amigos"(as a matter of fact, these blood hound 'janja men' surrounded this table, but more importantly, upon this table was the group picture which I was init surrounded by "Automatics"; 'Kalashnikovs' and probably 2 or 3 locally made....)...and one of the blood thirsty hombres (their leader most prabably) pointed at me in the group picture and said: "is he a so so and so?" The rest hombres all peered into the pix darkly with grim and gloom in their blood shut eyes I suppose; and one other of 'em (for no reason till date which I know not of; maybe as a defence mechnism to save my life ) said: "No he's not!"; And alas! An argument ensued (an argument whether Eze Igwe will live to see another day or no) but my "unruly attorney" in their midst won the "case" and it was concluded I WAS NOT one of the "so so and soes"! Then they gave me "a pass" (a kind of an 'okay')...and they slowly sheated their "swords", some reluctantly, while some, very doubtfully.

Meanwhile I was whereever I was that night feeling exquisitely very cool; not knowing that I could have bidded Earth good night on that certain night if care was not taken...

Now, how did I get to know this story (for most assuredly I wasn't in that meeting with 'em folks!).

When I finished my last paper in College (University)...I was joyful with 'CRYS'tls' popping as much as we could POP (with my men Obyno, and some 2 or 3 other men), But here comes this fella (with 2 other fellas) amidst my celebrations the fella approached me: (looking like a mordern day 'Tupac') he walked up to me and said: "Let me tell you a story, about a certan night that I saved your life......"


Answer the Call Today!
"Marvel not that I said unto thee, YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN"
[John3v7].

*Giving your life to Christ is like making a pledge! A pledge to live for JESUS! (it's more than a pledge) but the word 'pledge' is used to help you understand how this great journey commences.

If you're NOT BORN AGAIN, you have not given your life to Christ, simply make this pledge right now, you can raise your right hand as you say it solemnly; (never mind, God is seeing you right now) say this: "Lord JESUS, I come to you today; I've been living my life for myself, but from today I want to live my life for You. I confess my sins today, write my name in Your Book of Life, for from today I will live for You; Thank You Lord JESUS. For in JESUS Mighty Name I pray, Amen."

Brother, sister, you are now BORN AGAIN! [Romans 10v9&10] Welcome to Your New Life.
Halleluyah!

[John 6: 35-40]

"And Jesus saith unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to Me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on Me shall never thirst. But I said unto you, That ye also have seen Me, and believe not. All that the Father giveth to Me shall come to Me; and him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out. For I came down from Heaven, not to do Mine own will, but the will of Him that sent Me. And this is the Father's will which has sent Me, that of all which He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. And this is the will of Him that sent Me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on Him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day." [John 6: 35-40]
