Keep on keepin' on Rev! Where Jesus leads, you just follow, I like that. You came to know God when your heart was ready and He gives you insight to the plight of others knowing the path that they are on, because you were there.

That is empathy, and that, my brother, is the Lord!

Beautiful testimony! I, too, was saved from suicide by the LORD. However, it took almost 17 years after that before I finally surrendered my heart to Him. He was so patient and steadfast in His love for me. PRAISE GOD! THANK YOU, JESUS!

 

[Peace Seeker]

Wonderful testimony, Rev!

God is so awesome how He reaches down into broken lives and heals and repairs them. No one is ever out of reach of His healing hand, and His mercy, love and grace is unfathomable!

Called...out of the darkness into His marvellous light

Praise the Lord.....and all glory to His beautiful name for His saving love and mercy.

May the Lord continue to bless you richly brother as you seek to share His gospel with others.


In Christ...all things are become new
2 Corinthians 5:17

i was laterr invited to a clown ministry work shop and thats when a funny thing happend on the way

Now what are the odds of a funny thing happening on the way to a clown workshop..
Maybe 4 out of 5?

That's a very uplifting testimony,thank you for sharing.

I,m sure you know that Isaac means laughter.
Romans 9:7 Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.

You sure fulfilled that verse.

 

[Rev T.S.Perkins]

i never thought God would use me in this arena but nothinhg is impossible with God so it only makes sense that HIS plans for me included laughter..it has been such a wounderious journey seeing what God can do when the world says it wont work or make sense.. we limit God way to much and its time to let Him out of the box ..For His Glory ...In Jesus name

Hello Rev T.S. Perkins.

Never tire of hearing sermons, love the way Jesus deals with every
individual in a unique way. Your testimony is outstanding by any
measure. Refreshing to hear, thanks Rev.

I have found that by just being as a child of God and believe, Sometimes the faith we use causes others to think!! Thanks so much for giving us a peek inside.Memory can become a blessing,when we look unto the peace rather then the pain. We do this each of us in many ways,what works for us, works,it is not open to opinion. It is the result that is! Good Fruit produces only from a good tree. Thank you Rev for showing us another good tree in you!! amen! Jesus is not dead as many suppose,He is alive! And he lives in us!As David has spoken straight from the Word LIGHT shows in darkness!( Matt 5:14-16) For we are the light because Jesus in us shows!

 

[Rev T.S.Perkins]

In memory of our risen jesus!

Many people talk about the doubt of Thomas,and yes there is scripture concerning this as well!BUT!!! What about the others as well!! Well mark they did not doubt. OH NO????? Please read Luke 24:33-53 Jesus in verse 39 said to them as well!! SEE My hands!! and my feet! touch me and see! Why would he say this if there was no doubt? Remember!! THEY all fled Jesus!!( matt 26:56!!) They doubted so much that Jesus had to eat a piece of broiled fish in front of them!!verse 41-43. I just had to give Thomas a break here. LOL

So many look down on him, for what he did.Now for US!!!! Our forgivness did not come at the death of Jesus, but rather at the rising of Jesus! Jesus died for our sins,but he rose,so that we could indeed be forgiven!! For if Jesus did not rise,his death would have meant nothing!! Everyone dies!

Not everyone rises from the dead! And has purpose to doing so as well! verse 46-47!!!! Verse 47! and that repentance for forgiveness of sins would be PROCLAIMED in HIS name to ALL the nations! verse 48!!! Not just spoken to them!! But to us as well!! YOU!!! are witnesses of these things!! YOU ARE!!! WE ARE!!! The fulfilling of john 15:11!!-17!!) We who have put to death our flesh,have also risen with our blessed Jesus!! Forever!

To give us further comfort in this,because lets face it,we all have lack in our flesh at present,Jesus send forth Holy Spirit!!! Luke 24:49!! I am sending!!! forth the promise of My Father upon!!! YOU!!! YOU!!!! will be clothed with power from on High!!

And so my brothers and sisters we indeed are clothed!! We were naked in Spirit before this!! Now we are clothed with Holy Spirit! Clothed in LOVE!!! (Philippians 2:1-8!!)Humble, yet bold in love! That is the clothing we now have from our Wonderful Risen Jesus! There is no one among us more thankful to Jesus then me!! You should say the same! You are the proof of our Risen Lord!! If you exercise what humble truly is! (Philippians 2:12-18!)

Humble is being in awe of just how great our Jesus truly is! And that only by his very miracle he gave us, each one of us,we can then give others!!, Yes His LOVE!! His clothing!! His Holy Spirit! We do this by how we live,and by how we act,we do this,to let others also remember,Jesus is not far away,he is in us!

Christ the Lord,Our gift,our treasure!! Yes Our life!! Therefore( Mark 16:15!)Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.HOW??? By our very LIFE!!! Clothed in Love,Clothed in the Power from on High Jesus gave to each one of us! This do in remembrance of Me! This is why we partake of the Lord's Supper! ( 1 cor 11:25-33) We partake of his death,so that we then can partake of His life!!Happy Easter all!!

Thank you Rev for sharing your Testimony with us...

Next month will be my Spiritual Birthday on the 5th, will be 2years old... hahaha Two most wonderful years with Jesus!!

I Would like to share this and it goes well on what David777 said: He deals with every individual in a unique way.
Just at the beginning when I gave my heart to Jesus I started getting jealous on other brothers and sisters, I was afraid Father God might be spending more time with them than me.
From the first moment I tasted the unbelievable Love of God He has for me, I totally siked out.. I wanted more and more, then I started having feelings sadness and it hit me, I would never be able to share Him, I don't want to share Him with other brothers and sisters, He is mine!! I shouted!!! First time in my life I had "Someone" loving me, for who I am... and I wasn't willing to let it go without a terrible fight.

One night I was crying and crying profusely about the matter and Jesus answered me with a gentle touch to my heart saying: "I am a infinite God. I do not divide Myself so that everyone of my children can have a piece, no. I am omnipresent... I do not love like a human, I am God, I can give Myself fully to you, as if there are no others. I love you..."

Wow, I had no words, just bubbling happiness and more tears!!!!!!!!

Oh I love you Father God!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Rev T.S.Perkins]

the word says that we all have to work out our own salvation before God with fear and trimbling....not all will respond the same to the calling God has placed on them ..but we all will share the same rewards just like the workers in the field...Praise God that he made us all so differant..How boring would life be if we were all the same .....Rev
