"The Gospel which is preached by me isn't according to man for I neither
received it from men nor was I taught it but I received it in a revelation of
Jesus Christ" (Galatians 1:10-12).
Remember, I never went to Seminary let alone to Church nor had I read the New
Testament. All of my knowledge had come from this paranormal experience. It
was a personal revelation of Jesus Christ through these visions and dream. One
day I was a Dr.Harper clone and the next day I was the Jewish apostle Saul
(Paul) experiencing a blinding revelation of Christ which went against
everything we both had been brought up to believe. Only God could have done
that.
From that day on nearly 20 years ago, I turned my life over to Jesus Christ.
It was a bumpy road at first foiled with a lot of dirty diapers but what do
you expect from a new born Christian? Philip baptized me in his swimming pool
and held me under for what seemed like an eternity. When I questioned him as
to why he had done that, he had laughed that I had a lot of sin to wash off.
I then lost everything including most of my Jewish family and friends. I soon
lost my ability to provide for my family and my self esteem.
But as Paul rightly wrote:
"Everything is a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ
Jesus my Lord for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish
that I might gain Christ." (Philippians 3:8).
I am not here to judge any of you. That is way above my pay grade. This is
between you and God. All that I am trying to do is show you how someone
thoroughly steeped in the paranormal and so called New Age consciousness came
to the simple truth that Dr. Harper and many others still fail to grasp in its
simplicity.
Jesus did say that "I am the way, the truth and the life and no one comes to
the Father but through me" (John 14:6) but that is not a statement as
Dr.Harper intimated about our consciousness or Taoism but simply means what it
says. As Ockham's razor states, the simplest explanation is usually the best.
Take this statement at face value. Jesus is the only way to heaven. He is open
to all. No one is too bad to be forgiven and nobody is too good not to need
forgiveness. Jesus is the Savior of all mankind sent by the Father to redeem a
fallen world.
"There is salvation in no one else for there is no other name (but Jesus
Christ) under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved"
(Acts 4:12).
One day I was a paranormal Gnostic Jew and the next I was a born again spirit
filled Christian. Who would have ever guessed?
"For by grace you have been saved through faith and that not of yourselves. It
is a gift of God not as a result of works that no one should boast" (Ephesians
2:8-9).
"For if is by grace it is no longer on the basis of works, otherwise grace is
no longer grace" (Romans 11:6).
Thank you Jesus for coming to seek and save the lost. I am forever grateful.
