Personally, I used to picture Jesus as the Good Shepherd, which indeed he is... But now I have another picture of Him too. Please read the following text from the Gospel of John: "There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him, 'Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.' Nicodemus saith unto him, 'How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?' "Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit." This Holy Spirit was once a mystery to me, but not anymore. Since October 23, 2003, He has moved me beyond what I ever thought was possible. From a life lived on the edge of darkness, where I believed in Jesus yet didn't because I doubted so much, I have been born again by the Holy Spirit in a marvelous way. The Jesus that the Holy Spirit has guided me to by reading the Bible is indescribably real to me now. I've been led on a journey that has allowed me to witness from His Word the awesome power of His love for all of mankind. Jesus is the master Architect of the world, the master Strategist of its battle with the forces of evil, and still He is the Good Shepherd who knows even the number of hairs on his childrens' head. I know it. Through this Web site - His Web site - I hope I can show everyone the Truth I have discovered of my Saviour while guided on an emotional ride by His Holy Spirit. "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved." I take full responsibility for any mistakes on these pages! The work is ongoing, and the site will hopefully be more organized soon. I encourage everyone who reads these pages to learn on your own, follow your Shepherd: Don't listen to just one person or one just one church. Let your Spirit, at least, escape from of the churches! God is ready for you. Look for Him in the sky always, He is coming soon if we will acknowledge our failings!

let me introduce my friend, Jesus. He is truly the personal Friend
available to of all of us! His is a name that brings love and
admiration to most who hear it, along with a deep sense of humility
as we remember His walk with us so long ago.
