It is&amp;nbsp;very important for every person who is a true &quot;Baptized by the Spirit, Christian&quot; to search within&amp;nbsp;themselves and through prayer to both learn what his or her&amp;nbsp;&quot;Gift &quot; is and to put it into practice within the Body of Christ.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have been under Satan&#39;s attacks for decades and am only now truly coming to grips with what this battle is about. The Church has become weak because we in America have it too easy and are not in &amp;nbsp;the battle in a way that really makes a difference! Most American&amp;nbsp;Christians think that going to Church on Sunday, and a prayer now and then, will make themselves acceptable in God&#39;s eyes. Another segment of those who would refer to themselves as Christians, include doing good works into the mix to insure they are pleasing to God. Then we come to the &quot;&lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_new_religious_movement&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia nofollow&quot; title=&quot;Christian new religious movement&quot;&gt;Christian cults&lt;/a&gt;&quot;, who include a variety of organized religious groups who think that their group is the &quot;real church&quot; and if you do not believe their perversions of the Scriptures then you can not be saved! The &quot;speaking in tongues&quot; groups fall into this category as well. I have been given the ability to &quot;see&quot; into the working of Satan within these false Christians! A well known religious group came knocking on my door a few days ago. You know who they are by the materials that they&amp;nbsp;always want you to read. They even have their own translation of the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have seen and experienced things that the normal human being would never see! God has allowed me to experience some of the Supernatural World, including His &quot;Still Small Voice&quot;, His Hand, as a cloud, pointing to a mineral deposit, providing direction, and even seeing the &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devil&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia nofollow&quot; title=&quot;Devil&quot;&gt;Devil&lt;/a&gt; himself. The &quot;Spiritual Gift&quot; that God&#39;s Spirit has allowed me to learn to use, is &quot;&lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discernment&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia nofollow&quot; title=&quot;Discernment&quot;&gt;Discerning of Spirits&lt;/a&gt;&quot;, which is in effect&amp;nbsp;&quot;Spiritual Discernment&quot;,&amp;nbsp; It is a very hard &quot;Spiritual Gift&quot; to understand, to&amp;nbsp;learn to&amp;nbsp;use&amp;nbsp;and put into practice,&amp;nbsp;for of a variety of reasons. I have been trying to write,&amp;nbsp;and will be writing, &quot;The LORD Willing&quot;&amp;nbsp;in my&amp;nbsp;several blogs concerning what He has allowed me to see and experience. My blogs as well as my gifting are for the purpose of providing &quot;Spiritual&amp;nbsp;Sight&quot; to the &quot;Body of Christ&quot; as well as to&amp;nbsp;edify the &quot;Body of Christ&quot;, to the &quot;Glory Of GOD&quot;. It is my hope that at least some will receive &quot;Salvation&quot; as well.&amp;nbsp;In the end, GOD&amp;nbsp;MUST BE GLORIFIED !&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because I have learned to resist the temptations of this world which is in the control of Satan, I have become even more of a target, and&amp;nbsp; I desire to become more of a help, for the strengthening and inspiration of true believers. Again, I see things that the normal Christians just do not recognize as threats and I need to Keep Writing and trying to explain that we are in trouble as a Church of Christ. Talk to missionaries who have lived with ex-head hunters and they will tell you what a great spiritual danger that&amp;nbsp;there is and we in America just do not see it! Because I have seen Satan, spirits&amp;nbsp;and have had a &amp;nbsp;demon try to posses me on &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=37.881697781,-121.914154997&amp;amp;spn=0.1,0.1&amp;amp;q=37.881697781,-121.914154997%20%28Mount%20Diablo%29&amp;amp;t=h&quot; rel=&quot;geolocation nofollow&quot; title=&quot;Mount Diablo&quot;&gt;Mount Diablo&lt;/a&gt; in California, I have had no choice but to recognize the dangers that are present! Please pray and listen for the Spirit of our Lord to guide you into the truth!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is a true story of a very sick Doctor who decided to commit TORTURE ! I am the recipient of this sick Dr.s desire to harm someone, and in doing so broke the &quot;Hippocratic Oath&quot; that these practitioners used to swear an oath not to do any harm. As I recall, part of the oath is to &quot;Do No Harm&quot;. Doctors are not perfect and can make mistakes from time to time. This time it was&quot; intentional torture&quot; and he even laughed after he intentionally burned me. I have learned through all of this that I have suffered, that Dr.s protect each other and to a certain degree cover for each other so that when they screw-up, another Dr. will likely help cover for them. This is what happened between Dr. Steven J. Blatchford of Tucson, Arizona and at least one who is associated with him such as one of the vice-presidents of Valley ENT PC, an ear, nose and throat corporation. That is the Vice-president that is in charge of making these kinds of things just go away! His name is Dr. Dan Hurley of Scottsdale, Arizona. This corporation is now the largest in this state and have a covey of attorneys to handle the screw-ups that can not be swept under the rug like they did to me! They have been swallowing up smaller practices and building one large group of ENT Dr.s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have written about this sick Dr. in recent months since it happened on the 8th day October , 2010. It is now time for it to come to light since it has now finally been reported to the Attorney Generals Office of Arizona, to the &quot;Civil Rights Division&quot; which I did before but it was reported to the wrong office apparently because I never heard from them afterwards. I filed the report this past Thursday or Friday. I have not had much sleep so the days seem to run together.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I just went to the AG&#39;s website to get a list of the civil rights violations that they cover and it includes things like employment discrimination, as well as housing, public accommodation or voting but it did not include being tortured! I am starting to think that the US. Justice Dept./ADA Division(Americans with Disabilities Act) who told me to contact the AZ. AG&#39;s Office was not sure who to send me to! Torture is a criminal act and the police should have handled it to begin with but they did not think that they had enough evidence to arrest him after it happened.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The burn was inside my left nostril , out of sight of the average person after it healed and originally the burn extended outside of my nose but was not noticeable afterwards. This creep used a RF( radio frequency machine) to commit the crime and as an expert witness in medical malpractice cases, he knew exactly how to torture me, with a good chance of getting away with it! This outdated and ineffective machine that he used on an un-numbed area in my nose, produced with &quot;High Voltage&quot; an effect that was like multiple lightning bolts going off simultaneously inside my nose while he was burning me. It was a horrible experience to go through, and he had a good laugh after he did it to me! It is necessary to expose this very sick Dr. as well as the corporation that is helping to cover-up this crime! Valley ENT is like a shield for this very sick man and they both need to be exposed!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In my research, I have concluded that Josef Mengele who was Adolf Hitlers chief torturer is the ideal sick person to compare Steven Blatchford to since they both used electricity as a weapon to torture people. If Josef Mengele had this advanced high voltage weapon then he would surely have used it!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;&quot;&gt;In this &quot;works based&quot; world of being good enough, there is a question that is always hovering in the back of the minds of those who have this belief and that is : have I been &quot;Good Enough&quot;, to avoid hell and eventually see heaven? Most do not even want to consider that possibility and avoid even&amp;nbsp;thinking about&amp;nbsp;it. They often consider, at least sub-consciously that they are &quot;good enough&quot; because they do good things, or they are better than their neighbor, in their own minds. But the bottom line is this : How do I really know for sure? The fact is, is that they can not know! They are likely to say, if asked, I am a good person, I have never killed anyone or they have not broken many of the 10 commandments. They do not want to believe that the &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Holy-Bible-Manic-Street-Preachers/dp/B000666VKQ%3FSubscriptionId%3D0G81C5DAZ03ZR9WH9X82%26tag%3Dzemanta-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3DB000666VKQ&quot; rel=&quot;amazon&quot; title=&quot;Holy Bible: 10th Anniversary Edition&quot;&gt;Bible&lt;/a&gt; is God&#39;s Inspired Word and must be taken seriously! If asked,&amp;nbsp;they have their share of excuses why God should let them into &quot;His &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heaven&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Heaven&quot;&gt;Heaven&lt;/a&gt;&quot;. What do you believe? Are you &quot;good enough&quot;? If you are not very familiar with the Bible then you probably&amp;nbsp;think that you are pretty good, don&#39;t you? I would like for you to consider what God has to say about this matter. God says that &quot;He alone is Good&quot;. Did you know that? Then where does that leave you if you are not good? It leaves you without any hope at all! Your only hope is to do exactly what God says that we must do! Are you even a little bit interested in knowing what that is! I hope that by now, you are very interested and wish that I would get to the point.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div sizcache=&quot;24&quot; sizset=&quot;3&quot;&gt;I am now ready to tell you. It is a &quot;free gift&quot;! That&#39;s right, it is free but there is a catch. You must believe by &quot;Real Faith&quot;, with all of your heart, soul and strength that &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Jesus&quot;&gt;Jesus&lt;/a&gt; is exactly what He and the rest of the Bible says that He&amp;nbsp;is. For that &quot;faith&quot; is &amp;nbsp;like the &quot;faith of &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Abraham&quot;&gt;Abraham&lt;/a&gt;&#39; who was ready to kill his only beloved, promised&amp;nbsp;son because he trusted God and believed by faith that God was able and willing to actually raise his son &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaac&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Isaac&quot;&gt;Isaac&lt;/a&gt; from the dead! This passage is found in the &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_of_Genesis&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Book of Genesis&quot;&gt;book of Genesis&lt;/a&gt;, Chapter 22.&amp;nbsp;Now do you understand how important it is to trust God by Faith? It is not an easy thing to do. Not at all, yet it is necessary to believe with the simple faith of a child! Children are very trusting when they are very young and we are told by &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christ&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Christ&quot;&gt;Christ&lt;/a&gt; that we&amp;nbsp;MUST have that kind of faith! Do&amp;nbsp;I possess that kind of faith? Not always! Trusting God can be a very difficult thing to do especially when suffering and pain and disappointment and many other kinds of struggles enter into our lives. I am going through those kinds of things right now and my faith has been weak and I am struggling to overcome my doubts! The Christian life&amp;nbsp;can be and is very difficult at times. Are YOU ready to have the kind of &quot;&lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Collection-Suspense-Titles-David-Balcacci/dp/0684861658%3FSubscriptionId%3D0G81C5DAZ03ZR9WH9X82%26tag%3Dzemanta-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3D0684861658&quot; rel=&quot;amazon&quot; title=&quot;Collection of 4 Suspense Titles By David Balcacci: (1) Absolute Power; (2) Saving Faith; (3) The Simple Truth; (4) Total Control (Set of 4)&quot;&gt;Saving Faith&lt;/a&gt;&quot; that is necessary to escape the horrors of an eternity in &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hell&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Hell&quot;&gt;HELL&lt;/a&gt;? Let me encourage you to do it right now because you could die tonight!!! God has declared that He knows the number of hairs on our heads! His knowledge of us personally is such that there is nothing that &quot;God Does Not Know&quot;about us. He also knows every heartbeat and how many we will have in our lives. He therefore knows the day of our death as well and we do not!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;zemanta-related&quot;&gt;&lt;h6 class=&quot;zemanta-related-title&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 1em; margin: 1em 0px 0px;&quot;&gt;Related articles&lt;/h6&gt;&lt;ul class=&quot;zemanta-article-ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li class=&quot;zemanta-article-ul-li&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://ephesians616.wordpress.com/2011/03/15/heaven-and-salvation/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Heaven And Salvation&lt;/a&gt; (ephesians616.wordpress.com)&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;div sizcache=&quot;8&quot; sizset=&quot;1&quot;&gt;The &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiritual_gift&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Spiritual gift&quot;&gt;Spiritual Gifts&lt;/a&gt; from The Holy Spirit&amp;nbsp; are provided to believers when they receive Eternal Life through Faith in their LORD and &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvation&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Salvation&quot;&gt;Savior&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Jesus&quot;&gt;Jesus&lt;/a&gt; The Messiah or The Word of God who set aside His Prerogative to remain seated on the Throne of Glory, at the Right Hand of The Father. He then Chose to be born a human being, who are created in the image of God. It was Love that caused Him to do this and pity for this vast sea of humanity who were like sheep without a Shepard, wandering to and fro without hope. Mankind had been cursed along with all of creation and without a sinless Savior to become the Final and most complete sacrifice, there was no hope for mankind. After &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;God&quot;&gt;Our LORD&lt;/a&gt; paid the Great Price for our salvation, He then returned to Glory and 10 days later He sent the promised &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holy_Spirit&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Holy Spirit&quot;&gt;Holy Spirit&lt;/a&gt; at the time of Pentecost which meant that Jerusalem was filled with those who chose to worship the God of the Jewish people. This was the beginning of the &quot;Church&quot; which is the &quot;Body &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_of_Christ&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Body of Christ&quot;&gt;of Christ&lt;/a&gt;&quot;, Also known as the &quot;Bride of Christ&quot; who will someday be snatched away to meet The Lord in the air or upper atmosphere which is called the &quot;Second Heaven&quot;. Actually, it could be anywhere, from where the clouds are to the outer atmosphere or &quot;space&quot;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div sizcache=&quot;8&quot; sizset=&quot;7&quot;&gt;Now back to the &quot;Gifts of The Spirit&quot;. Each &quot;true believer&quot; receives at least one spiritual gift and these are available in the books of &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Epistle_to_the_Corinthians&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;First Epistle to the Corinthians&quot;&gt;1st Corinthians&lt;/a&gt; chapters 12, and 14, &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Epistle_of_Peter&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;First Epistle of Peter&quot;&gt;1st Peter&lt;/a&gt; chapter 4, Ephesians chapter 4, Romans chapter 4 and of course in the &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acts_of_the_Apostles&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Acts of the Apostles&quot;&gt;book of Acts&lt;/a&gt; which describes the coming of The Holy Spirit at Pentecost.&lt;/div&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div sizcache=&quot;8&quot; sizset=&quot;10&quot;&gt;Today is a time like no other in the history of the Earth. The battle is raging for the hearts, minds, and souls of our children. The enemy of all mankind has conceived all manner of traps, snares, and deceptions to keep or prevent as many human beings from knowing the Truth which is God&#39;s Truth and no other. The battle is on Earth yet the primary players are in another realm or dimension. This takes an incredible amount of &quot;&lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discernment&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Discernment&quot;&gt;Spiritual Discernment&lt;/a&gt;&quot;.The spiritual gift of discernment&amp;nbsp;is&amp;nbsp;listed in the Bible as &quot;Discerning of Spirits&quot;.&amp;nbsp;We also must use&amp;nbsp;much&amp;nbsp;caution when defending against an invisible enemy who hates all of humanity because we are created in the image of God.&amp;nbsp; God is their primary enemy. That which makes it even more difficult to understand is that the battle has already been won by &quot;The Word of God&quot;, when He died on the cross and paid the sin debt for all who will believe a simple yet astonishing truth. &quot;We are Saved By Grace Through&amp;nbsp;Faith&quot;. All other religions are in one form or another, &quot;works based&quot; in their understanding of what is &quot;good&quot; and what is needed for atonement, of one sort or another&lt;/div&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The description of this spiritual battle in the Bible has proven to be absolutely true. I know this from personal experience yet&amp;nbsp; it has taken decades for me to even begin to understand why I have seen and experienced all that I have. I finally turned to the Bible after God personally stepped into my life at the age of 30. There was a long interval where I was like a ship without a rudder because I received Christ as my Savior at the age of 6 and for a variety of reasons why,&amp;nbsp; it took a long time for me to look to &quot;The Book&quot;, the Bible,&amp;nbsp;for some answers. It is now like daily food that is every bit as important as food for the body. The better the nutrition for the body then the healthier will be the body, and it is the same for our soul and spirit! Without daily feeding on God&#39;s word, we become not only malnourished but leave ourselves open to attack by &quot;the enemy&quot;. This does not mean that we are not attacked daily any way, it means that we are better prepared to resist the attacks. I have found that for me it is necessary to listen to the audio Bible daily if possible and also listen every evening to as many of my favorite Bible expositors as possible.&amp;nbsp; Since I live alone it is possible for me to spend most of my waking hours filling my mind with God&#39;s truths. It is something like an immunization. The enemy still tries to get a foot-hold in my life but when his attacks happen, I know why and do not turn and run but stand my ground with the addition of spiritual armor from God and can even use the LORD&#39;s offensive&amp;nbsp; weapon which is God&#39;s Word!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Quite often, I ask myself what should I be,&lt;br /&gt;
just another poet, an apple in a tree?&lt;br /&gt;
The answer is out there, it is so difficult to see.&lt;br /&gt;
It is shadowed by heartache.&lt;br /&gt;
It is shadowed by thee..&lt;br /&gt;
Should I be a poet?&lt;br /&gt;
Should I be a cook?&lt;br /&gt;
Should I go to college?&lt;br /&gt;
Should I write a book?&lt;br /&gt;
The answer is out there, it is so difficult to see.&lt;br /&gt;
Will I ever find, what life means to me?&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have felt unusually down-in-the-dumps lately and I have not understood why. Today, I went to a Super Store whose name I will leave unmentioned, and at the next check-out counter I recognized three women of whom two do not live in my neck of- the-woods normally but I knew why they were in the area. The 90-year-old mother of the two sisters were in town because their mother had suffered&amp;nbsp; some Type of&amp;nbsp; heart attack. I had been in the dark except for a brief description about this woman being in the hospital. We finished checking-out at the same time and I was very anxious to ask about their mother. When I did, I was given the bad news that she had passed away yesterday.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div sizcache=&quot;24&quot; sizset=&quot;1&quot;&gt;I ate lunch with this woman in a semi-public facility a few times each week, and had done so for a few years. I had been very concerned about her because she had behaved in an unusual way, Other than&amp;nbsp; in previous months. Her attitude toward me had changed, even though I took very good care of her. I suspected that it had to do with the fact that I had on a few occasions mentioned that I was a &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Christian&quot;&gt;Christian&lt;/a&gt; and had made brief comments to another person sitting with us, along those lines.&amp;nbsp; Even though these comments were made to other people seated with us, I suspected that it bothered her somehow. I believe that she was not &quot;Saved&quot;and she had developed hard feelings toward me, because of it, somehow. I am now convinced that The &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holy_Spirit&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Holy Spirit&quot;&gt;Holy Spirit&lt;/a&gt; had worked on her heart but she was resistant. I had waited for an opportunity to witness to her but she never joined the conversation when Christian related comments were made in her hearing. My heart has been very burdened because of her spiritual condition and somehow, The Holy Spirit was causing me to be troubled over her condition because her time was short!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div sizcache=&quot;24&quot; sizset=&quot;3&quot;&gt;This goes back to other posts that I have written about &quot;Spiritual Gifting&quot;and It was the gift of &quot;&lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discernment&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot; title=&quot;Discernment&quot;&gt;Spiritual Discernment&lt;/a&gt;&quot; which is in the Bible called, &quot;Discerning of Spirits&quot;&amp;nbsp;that through God&#39;s Spirit, had troubled me for this past week or longer! Now she is Gone and I am convinced that she is not in a good place because of her stubbornness and now she will have to endure an eternity of punishment. I can not tell you how saddened I am over this situation and wish it had turned out differently&lt;/div&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
If you have anyone close to you who you suspect that he or she is not saved then make every effort to talk to them, privately, if possible because you may not have another chance, which was the case in my life. It is too important to allow an opportunity to witness to pass by! Eternity is a very long time, especially in hell.&lt;br /&gt;
