Christ's Chill ZoneThis Is The Place To Chill With Christ!!! November 09 My Testimony (Short)Heres a short version of my testimony (my story of how I oung my faith):
From being born into a life of epilepsy and family troubles I took to drugs and drink when I was twelve. Then Buddhism sneaked its way into my life, and everything went crashing down. Amazingly when I got to fifteen somehow I just stopped the drugs and Buddhism, even though I was deeply into both something helped me. Sadly my epilepsy got worse and I had to come out of schooling and tried to commit suicide, with all this happening a vicar from a local church suggested an ALPHA course. During the ALPHA I met two lovely people Sue and David Tattersall who helped me to find Christ. During the ALPHA Course the lord spoke to me with a passage: Joel 2:25-So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the crawling locust, the consuming locust and the chewing locust, my great army which I sent among you. Just as the lord said, in a matter of weeks he brought me to ELIM where I stood praising his name, meeting and talking to wonderful people and most of all finding my saviour the lord Jesus and Feeling the presence of the holy spirit! A few months later I was baptized to make a public declaration for my love and faith in Jesus, now my path in life is to become a minister of Gods word and help as many people as I can. So I just Thank all the lovely people from ELIM, the Pastors and Elders who have been an inspiration to me, most of all I thank Jesus for restoring my life and helping me become a Christian. August 03 UCB: Kodak Christians'YOU WILL RECEIVE POWER...AND YOU WILL BE MY WITNESSES IN JERUSALEM,
AND IN ALL JUDEA AND SAMARIA, AND TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH.'
ACTS 1:8 NIV
It's possible to be so committed to preserving what's good from the past and enjoying what's
good in the present that we are blind, or resistent, to what God has for us next. Jerusalem was an
exciting place to be:'All the believers met together constantly and shared everything with each other,
selling ther possessions and dividing with those in need. They worshipped together regulary...
met in small groups in homes to break bread, and shared their meals with great joy...The whole
city was favourable to them' (Acts 2:44-47 TLB). Now there's just one problem; nobody wants to
leave jerusalem and carry the message to judea, samaria, and the ends of the earth. Life is too
good. So how does God get us out of our comfort zone to fulfil His purposes? Clearly, just telling us
won't do it. The answer is persecution! And it's an idea we don't like because we tend to be kodak
Christians. Remember the famous Kodak Camera ad? 'Freeze the moment!' Here's how God deal's
with kodak Christians:'...there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem;
and they were all scatterd abroad throughout the regions of Judea and samaria...they that were
scattered...went every where preaching the word' (see Acts 8:1&4 KJV). Here's a thought: God
could be permitting the tough time you're going through to: a) dig you out of your rut b) get you out
of neutral and moving toward what he has for you next. Bottom line: staying in Jerusalem too long is
bad for you.

I have just been born again (refound my faith) and was just wondering if theres anyone out there that has had a experience like mine. My experience was that a preacher said a passage that hit me (Joel 2:25), at first I put it to the back of my mind but that night I had six dreams about it, the following day six different people mentiond it and then that night I had a further six dreams so I began to think about it. I went to 2 differnet churches a Anglican and Pentecostal. Even though I love Anglican preaching I just get more of a experience from the Pentecostal ways. So if theres anyone out there who wants to share there faith, even if your not Christian it would be nice to hear from other religions. God-Bless Jake.

 February 27 Amazing!!!Its amazing!!! On sunday night I went to a pentacostal church in Blackburn called th Elim church. Now im use to a standard church of england church were you stand up, sit down, pray quitly and fall asleep, but at Elim it was amazing people jumping up clapping shouting out there prayers. It made me fell warm and welcome as im normaly a withdrawn person who doesnt interact but for the first time I sang instead of just moving my lips and looking at the floor. The hardest part was trying to get to sleep that night as I was so excited and looking forward for the following week. It was a huge change for my out-look on my faith but deffintly one for the better.
God Bless. February 21 Foot Steps In The Sand.One night a man had a dream. Across the dark sky flashed scenes from his life. When the last scene of his life flashed before him, "Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, The Lord replied "My precious, precious child, This verse helped me understand my christianity I hope it helps yours. Im a new person.For about 6 months I have been searching for something to fill my life and make me whole. On monday the 20th of febury 2006 at 20:40 I found the thing that I had been searching for, the Lord Jesus Christ. It was one verse that gave me a hole new perspective of my life, which up to then I didnt have a life. I came across this verse at a christian meeting that untill monday I had no intrest in.
The verse was: Joel 2:25
And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten,
the cankerworm,
and the caterpillar,
and the palmer-worm,
my great army which I sent among you.
This verse made me realise that the bad times and doings can be restored and forgiven. Which lifted my soul and made me feel as though my life has a meaning. The freaky part was that the verse was mentioned three times that night and a furthor 3 times in my dreams that night. So please if anyone out-there has had a sprital experience like mine or if you just need to talk to someone about your christianity or problems in your life my email is jakedude16@hotmail.com. Thankyou and god-bless you.
