Hello all,
My name is Daniel, and within the past month I've been discovering and learning more truths about the bible than I ever knew in my 21 years of exsistance. I know that's not a really long time, but fortunately I was rescued quickly, cause I feel end times are near. Anyways, this could get legnthy but I'd like to share with you all how I discovered Ray's site, and how it opened up my eyes. I've been brought up Catholic since I was born, and my family, especially my aunt, are strong in their faith. Through my teen years, I started questioning things like; What if the bible was just made up by two random guys trying to explain why we're here? Or What if Aliens came to earth when we were primative, mated with us, and created a hybrid that became the human we know today? (Really out there right? lol) So it was apparent that while I believed in God and Jesus, that the Catholic religion just left me going "but what if?"
Well several months ago my aunt brought over these video tapes of a young man who recieved miracles from Mary and Jesus. I watched all of them, and I truly thought it was real. I watched miracles of eucharist turning into flesh, stigmata, pictures of Mary on walls, and messages from Jesus and Mary through the young man, all happening before my eyes on a home video. I was amazed, and felt that this was truly a message telling us to prepare for the end. A couple months later my Grandmother was admitted into the hospital for Congestive Heart Failure. One night while I was visiting at the hospital my sister and my aunt had came back from a prayer gathering at the house of the young man. My sister was spilling with talks of the end of the world, and that another man there was given the sight of the future, and he saw micro-chips implanted in non-believers, the poles of the earth switching, and the anti-christ. It freaked me out to say the least, and when I went home that night, I searched the web for anything about those three things. As I read more information I became more frightened of whats to come. However, at the same time I was listening to a favorite band of mine, Thrice. They have a lot of biblical meanings in their lyrics, but don't consider themselves a Christian band. Anyways, I was reading one of their lyrics on a website, and there was a link underneath the song that said "Learn how Tithing is proved wrong in the bible!" This is what lead me to Bible-Truths.
The moment I clicked, a whole new world was open up to me. I read as much as I could for the night, staying up well past 6 am. And I read more when I woke up, and the next day and the next. Day by day truths were being revealed to me, and I was becoming so excited my fear of the end passed. This didn't come without it's doubts though, as I talked to my family, some questions arose, so I prayed one night to God. And I prayed like never before, I felt like I was actually praying for real this time. And I asked God to let me know if what I read was true or not, if it was True, open up my eyes, and if not then show me. The next day i woke up feeling like new, I felt confident, I felt happy, I felt like nothing could ruin my day, and this feeling went on for the rest of the week. I truly felt God was telling me this was the truth, and that night after work when I went back to Ray's to read more, I felt I understood it better than I did the last time! I was talking to everyone about it (not the best decision sometimes), and it gave me greater stregnth while my Grandmother was in the hospital. She passed away after three weeks in the Hospital, and it's been very hard trying to not believe in things like she's in heaven right now, or that she's watching our family. I do feel extreme comfort in knowing she's resting right now, no longer suffering, and in the end She'll be in heaven with me and everyone else. I believe God has chosen me to know these truths, however I also feel there is a lot more to learned and be answered. I plan on reading the entire bible (a task never before accomplished by myself) along with it a greek/hebrew bible, and dictionary. I hope to befriend you all, and seek guidance from those who know more. I have a lot of questions, but I do feel I am on the right path, and any question will be answered by God's truth.
God Bless You All,
Daniel
