And his brightness was as the light; he had bright beams out of his side: and there was the hiding of his power. Habakkuk 3:4, margin.

(which of course is "English") ;)

1898 description -


Who will be able to behold the scars of His humiliation, the sign of the affliction and suffering He endured, that He might win man back to His loyalty to God? All the scars in His hands will be as bright beams, to add to the beauty and luster of the glorified body in which He arose, and in which He ascended as the exalted King of all humanity. {Lt81-1898.9}

—Christ accepted humanity, and lived on this earth a pure, sanctified life. For this reason He has received the appointment of judge. He who occupies the position of judge is God manifest in the flesh. What a joy it will be to recognize in Him our Teacher and Redeemer, bearing still the marks of the crucifixion, from which shine beams of glory, giving additional value to the crowns which the redeemed receive from His hands, the very hands outstretched in blessing over His disciples as He ascended. The very voice which said, “Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world,” bids His ransomed ones welcome to His presence. {Hvn 61.2}

And his brightness was as the light; he had bright beams out of his side: and there was the hiding of his power. Habakkuk 3:4, margin.

In English...

"His splendor was like the sunrise;
rays flashed from his hand,
where his power was hidden." NIV

"And his brightness was as the light; he had horns coming out of his hand: and there was the hiding of his power." KJV (obviously an inferior translation -- "horns coming out of his hand")

All I can tell is, a lot in her description possibly qualify a valid encounter, including given a choice between the Catholics and Christianity and it turned that you have to choose Christianity, and the hole in His chest, and some others. Usually I am very doubtful about the claims of Jesus encounter. This one seems real to me.

Agreed - coming from an atheist communist environment - she would not have known those details and it comes out in the things she includes in her testimony/personal-experience. I met a man from China once who had just become a Christian -- and he knew absolutely nothing about the Bible except that it is the Word of God and the book for Christians.

BTW -- There is an even more powerful presentation/testimony that I mention here - a full-length free online Christian movie about two Muslims and their encounter with Christ, a must-see.

I heard that there are a lot of Muslims that are receiving dreams and as a result becoming "followers of Jesus."

Yes indeed - see the link in post #4 for a great example of that... truly epic.
