New member here. Just posting to say hello. I'm glad to have found this site. I'm getting away from all the worldly things that I have been involved with and seeking the things of God. I've been saved for over 10 years but rebelled and turned away from God. I was lied to by Satan and fell heavy into all the sins you can possibly name with the exception of murder in the physical, but thank God his mercy endures. Thank God, Jesus died once for all our sins. Thank God, He is just and faithful, eventhough I don't deserve it, He gave me that chance to repent and draw nigh to Him through the blood of Jesus. Thank God He is moving mightily in my life, answering prayer and setting His hand before me and my family, providing for us according to His riches and glory; that my faith is being built stronger day to day; that He is giving me the words to speak to others by the Spirit as He gives utterance.
Praise God! Thats my testimony and I speak/type boldly here in hopes and prayer that someone reads this and is built up and strengthened by the Spirit, because it is only by Him (Jesus) that I am saved. I can only do what God instructs and give Him the glory for the blessings he is steadily pouring out on me and my family.
God bless and I look forward to helping out as much as I can on these boards. I figure if I can spend hours and talk about nothing on the other forums I was a part of, I can honor God by spending time here and helping to bring others closer to God.
Hello and welcome to the forums. Thanks for telling us a little bit about yourself. I'm so happy to know that God gave you the strength to change your life! Praise be to God!
I hope you will enjoy your time here, this board is huge and I'm sure you will find the right place/s to help and to encourage others through your testimony.
God bless you and your family!

Hey and welcome to CF!
It's great to hear that you've come closer to God again. Praise him for that! I'm looking forward to seeing your posting as well. God bless!
__________________ Rom.6:20-23 For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. But what fruit were you getting at that time from the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death. But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the fruit you get leads to sanctification and its end, eternal life. For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Again thank you all for the warm welcomes here. Hopefully I can offer some words that will be valuable to members of the forum. I have been witnessing to some schoolmates and have been strengthened iin my faith. it is such a blessing to know that the word of God is working on these people. For the past week I have been given the words to say, the scripture to back it up by the Holy Spirit. All I can do is praise God when I leave for the day and thank Him for the opportunity to share my faith with others. I pray that the believers of this site are partaking of the great commission and spreading the good news. Many are perishing daily. We need to remember that God wishes that no one should perish. He loves each and every one of us and if we believe Jesus died for our sin, paid the price to redeem us from hell fire, and rose again to be seated at the right hand of the Father, we will be saved. Repent for the kingdom of God is near.
