Greetings in the name of Jesus!
I sent an e-mail to Robert Nava and he asked that I send it here. So,

Greetings in the name of our LORD, Jesus Christ!
I noticed on Higher-Fire that you were interested in some testimonies.
I personally have seen many uneeded discussions on Higher-Fire, and I
have seen some very great discussions. The problem occurs when we all, as
brothers and sisters, dwell on the insignificant things, and not enough
on things that really matter. I praise Jesus, none the less, because it
shows me where I can become a better servant myself. When I look at the
unnecessary arguments, I can find someplace within myself how I have
sounded to others when doing the same thing. Praise Jesus.
Anyhow, I am often in the internet chat room, and have witnessed to a
wide variety of people. It wasn't until just recently that I have found
that this is my calling, and I eagerly wait upon Jesus to guide me
through, as He leads more people to the truth, using me. People are
being touched, and through one on one, personal Bible studies, we are
making headway, and God is getting the glory. There is one man, whom I
have been extremely blessed through. He is from MN and has a wonderful
family. Since meeting him, God has really used him to renew me. He is now
attending services at a UPC church, seeking the Holy Ghost, and for the
first time in his life, says he can see Jesus and experience Him like
never before. It feels like me all over again. All he can say about the
church is, AWESOME. It thrills me to no end as he continues to seek the
Holy Ghost and we continue our studies of truth. PTL!
There are others I am still working with through Bible studies and online
friendship. They will soon find Jesus, and it's according to His time,
not mine. I'm working with people in IL, WS, WA, TX, AZ and South Africa.
There will never again be a pastor to tell me that the internet is a
waste of time or money. How else will some of these people find the
answers, unless someone can meet them halfway?
Well, that's pretty much it for my internet testimony. Thank you for
letting me share it with you. If you'd like to check out my personal
testimony, you can do so by going to
