Bio
I was finally brought to the fullness of what is most important about anyone's faith, the Sovereignty of God. My life changed forever when, instead of acting like an arrogant fool commanding Christ to save me, God decided it was time for my election to be consummated. I had been told all my life that because I walked an aisle and told God to save me He obeyed, and I was saved. My life was filled with fear of living up to whatever "saved" was in the Arminian Baptist church I was in. I finally hit bottom in the guilt of thinking of what I had done in sin and the fact that I experienced no change in my life after doing what these "church leaders" told me to do to reach God myself. I was slowly killing myself when our Sovereign God gave me a teachable heart, and my life began from death. I have dedicated my life to sharing the Truth which God the Father imbued to me the day He sent the Holy Spirit with the Faith to regenerate me by Grace and give me a new heart and a new nature:
--John 6:44 (ESV) 44 No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him. And I will raise him up on the last day.
With this new nature I was finally able to hear Christ's command to Follow Me:
--Matthew 8:22 (ESV) 22 And Jesus said to him, “Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead.”
