Testimony

If I may share some truth! I heard the Word of God, back in June of 1985. Early Fathers Day morning. While driving eastbound on the old Davison Freeway. Near the end of the old section of the freeway, near the boarder of Highland Park and the eastside of Detroit, my hands went limp... My body slumped over... My soul Fell, Fell, Fell, Fell... Into Darkness, the Pit, Sheol, Death... I died.

Was pulled out of darkness. Back into my body. As I leaned back up, it was just in time to make the slight turn on the new section of Davison.

My spirit kept rising. As I was looking down, over the state of Michigan, Detroit had a very red glow over it. The strangest noise started blasting and I took off, going a trillion miles an hour, into the sky. Came up on four very powerful energys, lined up in front of me, from left to right.

The first, Good, two in the middle the last one, Evil. Good moved from in front of me, to my left side, looking down over me. All this other energy, surrounded us. This is when and where I heard the Word of God.

"You are a good man." "All men have purpose." "You have purpose." "White man help the black man." "Organize."

As I started to fall back, the energys fell behind me. The last one, Evil. Back, back, back, back in my body. Back driving the pick up truck on Davison. I turned around and looked out the back window, and the whole western sky was red..

Was a 27 year old, lost, hurt, angry, drunk, addict, living on the eastside of Detroit, back then. Left out a lot of what all happened that night, for it would take to long, to type it all out. Your friend Steven Johnston

Apple, Sounds like you've had a slight change of heart. Are you stepping over to the spiritual side, of 'good' purpose?

Criminal Justice System

I believe your right about reading and studying, the whole book of Peter, but wrong in your conclusion, Elder. 1 Peter 2:4 {KJV} state's, 'To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of god, and precious.'

You answered "For it talking about Jesus how came to give life to all men by God the Father but was rejected by those same men." Your answer puts Jesus in the past tense. Peter's quote is in the present tense, 'To whom coming'.

Didn't Jesus also say, 'When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of Truth who comes from the Father, he will testify on my behalf.', in John 15:26. Wouldn't the 'living stone, Helper, Spirit of Truth, be the same person?

Criminal Justice System

If there is one I've learned about the Criminal Justice System, is to stay the hell out of the Criminal Justice System!

Seeking a comment on 'the living stone' referred in 1 Peter, in the Bible. What, who, is this person? Anybody willing to comment on this subject?

Re-Education Program

Sharon's blame, of recent hard times, falls on the wrong shoulders. Pointing fingers in all the wrong directions. Same ole twisted views.

Thanks for looking at it. Yes, I enjoy that letter very much. A little out of the norm, concerning other letters in the Bible. I'm stilling soaking it all in. Good luck on your case.

To each his own

That tune sucks. How's everything on your side of town. I've been OK. I'll try to keep an open mind, in others music taste.

Year of the cat was the worst tune, ever. Check out that letter that wasn't included in the Bible, it's very interesting, How bout playing a little Savoy Brown.

I stumbled across this letter at www.gnosis.org/naghamm/letpet.html It's called The Letter of Peter to Philip. It put a smile on my face, what do you think?

Only a fool would demand proof, that God exists. Prove that God doesn't exist, brother.
