Want to hear people who have Testimony in Christ
Posted : 22 Sep, 2021 10:24 PM
Hello Everyone,
Myself Shubham, from India.
Only God can turn mess into a message, a test into a testimony, a trial into a triumph, a victim into a victory.
“For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.”- Ephesians 2:8-9
“My tongue will declare your righteousness and praise you all day long.”-Psalm 35:28
Your testimony is the story of your encounter with God and what role He has played throughout your life.
Remember: Faith that is not followed by works is a dead faith because the lack of works reveals an unchanged life or a spiritually dead heart. There are many verses that say that true saving faith will result in a transformed life, that faith is DEMONSTRATED by the works we do. How we live reveals what we believe and whether the faith we profess to have is a living faith.
“Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ.” -Ephesians 4:15

Below is my testimony in Christ
It's been 6 years since i became a Christian from atheist. I have tested every major religion on there fundamental basis with atheist view and skepticism. I am saved through the precious blood of Christ who died(sacrificed Himself) and took my sins upon Himself to save me and gave me new life with His resurrection. He found me in 2014 when I was searching for answers like..
why there is suffering ?
Proof of God ?
why so many religions?
God or things of the world?
Contradictory religions so which is really from God?
Is God personal ? Can we have personal relationship with God ?
Why 330 million gods in India?
Who I was before I found Jesus-
1.I was corrupt and a worthless baggage for 6 years.
2.I looked with lust at every other girl or woman
3.I was atheist
4.I watched porn
5.I would m*s**rbate every day
6.I would abuse everyone to max
7.Full of anger
8.Not knowing what is wrong: weak consciousness and morality
9.I was filled with worst you can imagine in a person.. with selfish, self-centered, condescending behavior...
Who am I now-
" What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ" -Philippians 3:8
#I love God more than my life.
#Knowing who God really is, what He did for everyone of us and how abundantly He loves each one of us as if just one person existed on earth
#Strong consciousness and morality
#I am totally cleaned of all that I have written above.
#I am a new person
#who knows right and wrong clearly.
#Knowing true God transformed me in less than 6 months compared to 6 years of sinful life with weak consciousness coming from man-made gods. It has been a long journey of transformation and battles inside me.
All I can say is I am totally contradictory to what I was. I am not perfect but I know the right from wrong. I know what it's to love God more than oneself, more than parents, more than this world has to offer. I have known what emptiness is and what being filled with fire for God is. I have known both sides without God and with God. And all I can tell you is this, Truth matters. Seek the truth above all else. It's hard to believe but it's all true and I am living example with millions across globe of what is said in Bible which I read later after transformation.-
"Therefore if anyone is in Christ [that is, grafted in, joined to Him by faith in Him as Savior], he is a NEW CREATURE [reborn and renewed by the Holy Spirit]; the OLD things [the previous moral and spiritual condition] have PASSED AWAY. Behold, new things have come [because spiritual awakening brings a new life]." (2 Corinthians 5:17)
Jesus took my rottenness, debts, nastiness and wickedness everything that was foul and corrupt and gave me a new life. This is a picture of God emptying the treasure chest of His love for us. We were no bargain. He drew us to Himself ignoring everything that was corrupt in us. Jesus died for me and each one of us so that we could be saved and not go to hell for what we deserve for our sins.
He loved us more than anyone can comprehend to an extent to sacrifice Himself by taking our sins even when we were of no worth before Him. There is one who died for you—look to the cross—behold His wounds. See the torrent gushing from His side. There is your Purchaser and you are secure with Him if you come to Him. He will transform your life and cleanse you of sin once you seek Him all your heart just like me.
I am sure to be with Him when He comes to take all of us who put trust in Him or when I die. Every moment when I think of Him I am so excited to be with Him. Death won't separate me now, death is catalyst to take me where I want to be, beside Jesus.
P.S
Sorry for long description. Even this was not enough for me.
Please message me if you seek God so that I can help you know how much He loves you and God can save you once you reach out to seek Him like I did 6 years back.
God bless! I love you! You are so much worth to God for He came Himself and died and resurrected to just save you because God loves you abundantly more than anyone can.
Have you ever felt your guilt before God?
Without Him you cannot be saved and neither see God's love for you.
"While we were still helpless [powerless to provide for our salvation], at the right time Christ died [as a substitute] for the ungodly. Now it is an extraordinary thing for one to willingly give his life even for an upright man, though perhaps for a good man [one who is noble and selfless and worthy] someone might even dare to die. But God clearly shows and proves His own love for us, by the fact that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:6-8)

36 One of the Pharisees asked him to eat with him, and he went into the Pharisee's house and reclined at table. 37 And behold, a woman of the city, who was a sinner, when she learned that he was reclining at table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster flask of ointment, 38 and standing behind him at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head and kissed his feet and anointed them with the ointment. 39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would have known who and what sort of woman this is who is touching him, for she is a sinner.” 40 And Jesus answering said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” And he answered, “Say it, Teacher.”
41 “A certain moneylender had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. 42 When they could not pay, he cancelled the debt of both. Now which of them will love him more?” 43 Simon answered, “The one, I suppose, for whom he cancelled the larger debt.” And he said to him, “You have judged rightly.” 44 Then turning toward the woman he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. 45 You gave me no kiss, but from the time I came in she has not ceased to kiss my feet. 46 You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment. 47 Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven—for she loved much. But he who is forgiven little, loves little.” 48 And he said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.” 49 Then those who were at table with him began to say among[a] themselves, “Who is this, who even forgives sins?” 50 And he said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”
May the grace of your redemption brings peace and salvations to others around you. May God bless you.
