Why did I become a Christian?

I was sad that I had cerebral palsy from birth. And I can't walk.I don't want to live in this sinful world In this world, our desires are not fulfilled. I wanted to be the bride of Christ.

I was horrified to see the Holy Spirit

I saw the Holy Spirit flying as a golden dove with own eyes

I was in the car I saw him in left side of wing mirror of car.

I can't read half English Bible .I can only read Marathi Bible.:study
 
I don't know what my Christian denomination is, I know very little about Christianity, I was a Hindu but I love Christianity so much that I saw on the internet that Jesus died for sin. Jesus rose from the dead on the third day, I can't go to church.:neutral
 

Hi siddhi koli

I hope that this video can be an encouragement to you. Bernadette is a friend of mine that I met while living in Miami. She is stronger in her faith and testimony than I have ever been, and yet her body is completely broken. She also hasn't walked since being a child. She's married to a wonderful husband, Jeff. God has been her strength.

God bless,
Ted
 
Hi siddhi koli

Here's a short bio that tells her story and shows her with Jeff.


BTW she has an email and loves to get messages from people: BernadetteTodd@aol.com or 305.753.5613 and you can call her, although they are often out of town. She travels the world giving her testimony. God has truly blessed her and her broken body with some of His greatest work.

God bless,
Ted
 
Again, let me offer myself as a contact to answer some of your questions about what it really means to not be a christian, but to be born again. You many contact me by PM or email: miamited1@gmail.com

God bless,

I want to address a few things from your OP.

We might have to live in this sinful world, even with our handicaps, but it is not our eternal home. Our eternal home will be with Christ Jesus when He returns for His Bride and at that time we will be given glorified bodies that will no longer look like the ones we have now that are not perfect, 1 Corinthians 15:51-58; Rev 21:1-4.

The Holy Spirit is not to be feared, but brings us comfort and will teach you all truths of the words of God, John 14:26-27.

Our desires are fulfilled within our spirit, not necessarily in our flesh, as the Holy Spirit indwells us within our spirit when we are Spiritually born again from above.

The Holy Spirit also translates the word of God in all the languages through out the world and what I would like you to do is start out by reading the book of John as this will teach you who Christ is and our relationship to Him. Then read the book of Acts as this will help teach you more about the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.

Never be afraid to ask questions as we are here to help you learn and if you want you can always PM me and we can talk in private.

God bless you on the beginning of your journey with Him and just keep moving forward in your walk with the Lord.

In Marathi (in Devanagari script) the word pavitra aatma(पवित्र आत्मा) is used.
Holy Spirit is called Pavitra Aatma in Marathi language.️


That is, I was very sad and cried to see that Jesus Christ died for the sins of all.Jesus will surely give salvation to all. I read on the internet that the Hebrew name for Jesus is Yeshua (יֵשׁוּעַ), which means salvation.and The Holy Spirit is called ruach ha kodesh in Hebrew . I call Jehovah the Creator. Etc☹️
But I could not create salvation myself. I read some verses of the Holy Bible.

Acts 4:12

King James Version

12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
And I used to worship the idols of my favorite deities and now I don't believe in any deities Because I used to eat vegetables for deity and To attain salvation.

I started remembering negative things, became irritable and vitamin deficient and Fell unconscious.

I was taken to Apollo Hospital and regained consciousness.


I learned that idolatry is a sin .
Exodus 20:3-5
King James Version

3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

Yes and born again doesn't mean reincarnation or coming back as an animal or other. It just means we have a second nature when we give out life and heart to him you get a new nature. The holy spirit in you to help you in life. The nature of being in right standing with God because of Jesus sacrifice and we don't sacrifice animals or anything. I thought that was important to tell Tedd. I just want her to know
 
I know it is a lot of information sister, but within time you can understand. I will keep you on my prayer list. God is notva God of chaos, but order. One God. It might be strange, but I think of it like an egg. The egg has yolk, white and then shell, but is one. That is how God is. God the heavenly father, God the son Jesus and the holy spirit. It is one and only God. He has a lot of attributes and those is describing his character. Not other Gods. We always pray, in Jesus name and amen is a confirmation.
 
Oh one more thing sister in Jesus. People only marry one person. They no longer have concubines or anything like that. Just one person the way it was intended in genesis. God made male Adam and female, Eve. Only two, not multiple
